📋 About This Mod
An overhaul of the Wild Magic Barbarian Subclass, keeping the flavour of random magic surges while making them beneficial and making the class more useful/powerful.
If you like this mod, check out my previous work: Thug - Rogue Subclass, Brawler - Fighter Subclass, Warlord - Barbarian Subclass and Savage - Barbarian Subclass.
Barbarian is easily my favourite Class (my last two mods were custom Barbarian Subclasses!) but I have very little experience with Wild Magic. This is mostly because it was weak, didn't scale into late-game and above all had only eight surges. I decided to remake it to make every surge at least somewhat useful, with some of them being buffs for your team and some being debuffs for everyone but you.
There's too many changes from the original Subclass so I'll just note what my version does, and I'd encourage you to check the actual abilities on the BG3 wiki if you don't know anything (I'll say if something is new). The features of the Subclass are as follows:
Level 3
Magic Awareness (Ability):
The range has been increased from 3m to 9m, and it now only targets you and your allies.
Wild Magic Surges:
The only surges I kept from the original Wild Magic table (because I liked them) are Magic Retribution and Teleport. The surges for this Subclass mod are as below:
[]Teleport: Unchanged (other than fixing a bug where it noted as affecting everyone around you even though only you could use it, now it will only target yourself)
[]Magic Retribution: This now does 1d8 + Proficiency Bonus to anyone that attacks you. They are also knocked away and left Prone.
[]Enchant: This makes it so you and your allies within 9m are guaranteed a Critical for your next weapon attack and your weapons do an additional 1d4 Force damage.
[]Fog Cloud: This creates a 9m radius Fog Cloud around you for 5 turns. You also gain "Wild Sight" for the same duration of the Fog Cloud that makes you immune to Blindness.
[]Enlarge: This Enlarges you and any allies within 9m for 10 turns.
[]Action Surge: You gain an additional Action this turn.
[]Armor of Agathys: You and any allies within 9m gain Armor of Agathys (cast as a Level 2 Spell).
[]Irresistible Dance: All other creatures within 9m start dancing for 5 turns and are unable to take any Actions or move.
[]Fly: You gain the ability to Fly for 10 turns.
[]Blur: You and any allies within 9m are Blurred for 10 turns.
[]Cleansing Aura: You and any allies within 9m are healed for your Level x3 and have your maximum hit points increased by 15.
[]Burning: All other creatures and items within 9m are set ablaze and take 1d8 + Proficiency Bonus as Fire damage for 5 turns.
[]Mephit: Summons a hostile Mephit.
[]Reduce: Reduces all other creatures within 9m for 10 turns.
[*]Cats: All other creatures within 9m are turned into cats
