The game's already good. Why not make it better?


Mods are a great way to make an older game feel brand new.

Fortunately, Divinity Original Sin 2 has a ton of mods to choose from, made by fans who love the game as much as you do. Which mods should you get, you ask? I’m here to help - here’s 15 mods that will give you the fresh experience you’re looking for.

15. Majora's Character Creation Plus

This is just a sample of what you can make!

The character creator in DOS2 is already pretty good, but wouldn’t you rather have something that will really help your creativity shine? Try Majora’s Character Creation Plus - it adds a great amount of new options for every race in the game, allowing you to make a character that stands out. You can even customize the origin characters with these options if you want to!

How this mod makes things more fun:

  • Make your entire party look awesome, even in the heat of battle!
  • Want to come up with a story for your custom character? This mod’s many features can help you make up something unique.
  • Just imagine how cool your party will look standing next to the NPCs. That’s right, you’re the main characters, not them.

14. Party Size Evolved

That's a lot of people to have following you around...

Let’s face it, it’s hard to choose which companion you want. This mod fixes that by giving you the option to have up to 6 party members at first, but you can also change it to 10, or even back to 4. Party Size Evolved is a must if you’re indecisive, or if you feel like you’re outnumbered in battle!

How this mod makes things more fun:

  • Get every companion if you want to - no one has to be left behind, and you won’t miss out on any lore or quests!
  • A bigger party means that you get more of an advantage in battle.
  • More characters means more room for skills that you’ve been dying to try.

13. Void Knight Class

Harness the power of the void! But wait, aren't they supposed to be your enemies?

In an interesting twist, this fan made class allows you to harness the power of the void. Whether you use this power for good or for evil is up to you. Oh, and you can also turn into a huge dragon, so that’s cool.

How this mod makes things more fun:

  • 23 new skills means more attacks to try out on the battlefield
  • There’s a lot of things that you can pull out from the void, including a gigantic sword and your very own void servant.
  • You can turn into a dragon. Seriously, what more can I say?

12. Tempest Class

Here's what the Tempest class looks like in all its glory.

Some players complain that spears aren’t very good weapons in this game. This mod aims to fix that with its new spear skills, giving your weapon of choice a boost. You won’t believe what you can do with just one spear!

How this mod makes things more fun:

  • A brand new class, with brand new skills! Always fun, right?
  • The new skills give spears an advantage over what they’re like in the base game.
  • There’s one skill that allows you to rain spears from the sky!

11. Astronomer Class

An example of the fanmade astronomer class.

With this mod, astronomy is more than just looking at the sky. Gaining its power from the sun and the moon, the astronomer class uses celestial magic to buff, debuff, and deal damage. Reach for the stars!

How this mod makes things more fun:

  • A new class and new spells to master!
  • Use the power of the sun and the moon to burn or drown enemies in your path.
  • This class can be a challenge to master, which is great for players looking for one.

10. Artificer and Bard Skills

Bards can wield lutes like weapons in this mod.

So many RPGs have bards as a class, but why doesn’t DOS2? This mod does something about that, as well as adding artificer, monk, and barbarian skills. There’s about 50 new skills, so try them all!

How this mod makes things more fun:

  • The bard skills have all kinds of buffs and debuffs, and you can also hold a lute like it’s a weapon.
  • The artificer skills have plenty of different effects on items. You can also force an enemy to eat all of their food, which is pretty funny.
  • There’s also new warfare skills made to go along with the changes in this mod. Try them all out!

9. Dragon Knight Class

This huge dragon could be you!

Here’s another mod that lets you turn into a dragon! Stomp, fly, and burn your way to victory! There’s also benefits for your human half, such as the ability to do a power jump.

How this mod makes things more fun:

  • Again, you can turn into a dragon. How is that not fun?
  • Like many of these new class mods, there’s plenty of unique new skills.

7. Valkyrie Class

Play as a beautiful, spear-wielding Valkyrie.

Don’t you just love those gorgeous wings? Aside from that, the fan made Valkyrie class adds 20 new skills that are mostly nods to Norse mythology. Get your spears ready!

6. Combat Sneak

Sneak as much as you want without the hassle!

As many DOS2 players know, sneaking is rather tedious in battle. It eats up a whopping 4 AP in the base game, but this mod fixes that! With combat sneak, your characters will be able to sneak during battle for just 2 AP.

How this mod makes things more fun:

  • Sneak in battle without eating up your AP!
  • Making sneaking more accessible means that you can come up with new strategies.
  • This mod makes using stealthy characters and classes much more fun.

5. Elemental Warfare

Craft a ton of new warfare-elemental combos in this mod.

Want even more skills to try? This mod has a whopping 60 new warfare-elemental combos to beat your enemies with! You’ll spend a lot of time crafting, but it’ll be worth it.

4. Necromancy Rebalanced

This skeletal warrior can be yours to summon.

Necromancy is cool already, but this mod makes it even better! It adds new skills and buffs that were specially made for necromancers, giving them the love they deserve. And yes, you can summon a huge skeleton guy.

How this mod makes things more fun:

  • Raise zombies and skeletons to do your bidding!
  • There’s all sorts of skills involving blood if you’re feeling extra macabre.
  • This mod also upgrades the existing necromancy skills.

Get this mod here for definitive edition and here for classic.

3. Sourcery Worthy of a Collar

Make your own killer meteor showers with this mod!

Though the powerful source spells in this game are nothing to sneeze at, some players found them underwhelming. One modder decided to do something about that, making master source spells that will really blow you away. Worthy of a collar, indeed!

How this mod makes things more fun:

  • Use source spells that rival Malady’s power! 
  • Since you need source for these skills, the modder kindly added a version of source vampirism that ignores armor.
  • There’s also a new weapon called the sourcereaper, which has three skills that come with it.

2. Crafting Overhaul

There's thousands of recipes to discover here. Hope you have some free time.
