Baldur’s Gate 3 is a massive game with a deep story and a huge world for you to explore. The story is filled with unforgettable characters, exciting quests, and much more. The game offers over 170 hours of content, so it’ll keep you attached to your screens for months. Even after you’ve completed everything, you can start again with a different race or playstyle.

But even with all that content, the modding community has found ways to make the game even better. There are over 13,000 mods available on Nexus Mods for Baldur's Gate 3. These mods can add new features, fix old ones, improve visuals, change gameplay, or just make the experience more fun. They even help with balancing underpowered subclasses. And today, we're going to look at some popular mods that you should try out right now.

Claravel’s Emotes for Photo Mode

This mod is perfect for players who love taking screenshots of their characters. It adds over 200 emotes and poses to the in-game photo mode, all placed into different collections like Sit, Stand, Romance, Dance, and more. These poses originally came from another mod, but the creator made things easier by placing them directly into the photo mode, removing the need to mess around with spells or commands.

Thanks to Claravel’s Emotes mod, you can just click and choose how you want your character to pose. It's fun, simple, and great for anyone who likes capturing their best moments in-game.

Rebalance – Gear

Baldur's Gate 3 has a lot of gear, but let's be honest, some of it feels useless. This Rebalance mod changes that by making many weak or forgotten weapons, armors, and accessories more useful. It doesn't add new items, it just improves what's already there. For example, it boosts many Act 1 items to make them useful in the later parts of the game.

Once you apply the mod, some gear will have better effects, new icons, and it’ll even work properly with Wild Shape. It also removes restrictions like needing to be branded by the Absolute to use certain items. In short, if you’ve ever ignored half the loot in your inventory, this mod will make sure you take another look. It increases the importance of each item, so you don’t have to discard it.

Waypoints Expanded

Running around the map in BG3 can be time-consuming, and at one point, it can get annoying. This mod fixes that by adding new fast-travel waypoints in key locations across all three acts.

These new waypoints have a unique color, so they're easy to spot. You'll find them inside the Emerald Grove, near the Arcane Tower, in Moonrise Towers, the House of Hope, and the Open Hand Temple. It's a small change but makes a big difference, especially for players who like to revisit certain areas or wrap up unfinished quests. It helps save time and makes exploration easier.

Witcher Armor for BG3

If you're a fan of The Witcher series, you'll love this one. This Witcher mod brings Geralt's armor from The Witcher 3 into Baldur's Gate 3. It includes his body armor, gloves, and boots, all available in the tutorial chest at the start of the game.

While the armor doesn't give huge stat boosts, it's meant for looks, letting you roam around as a Witcher in the world of Faerun. It's not dyeable, but it looks amazing as is. The mod works with most of the main races in the game, including Elves, Humans, Tieflings, and even Dragonborns. However, don’t expect anything special from it.

Duplication Chest

In Baldur’s Gate 3, there are times when you come across a great item, but you wish you had more of it. This Duplication Chest mod solves that problem. It gives you a spell to summon a magical duplication chest that can copy nearly any item you put inside. Potions, weapons, armor – you name it. The best part is that most things can be duplicated up to 99 times. However, do keep in mind that important story items like gold and junk can’t be duplicated. This has been done to keep the game fair. The process is also pretty simple. All you have to do is place the item inside the chest, close it, and it’ll get copied automatically.
