Installs on: BG:EE, BG2:EE, IWD:EE, EET (v2.5/v2.6)


Overview:
This is a mod for Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition, Baldur's Gate 2: Enhanced Edition, and Icewind Dale: Enhanced Edition.

Adds 15 weapons, many of them loosely based on weapons from FromSoft's Dark Souls trilogy. All items are purchased from various sellers. Some have more standard abilities, while others have more extreme advantages and disadvantages (though I've toned some of it down in updates).

Note: For BGEE/SoD, all items install, but only 3 are obtainable (2 in SoD).

---

Components:

1. D2-Weapon - A Souls-inspired Weapon Pack
2. Add damage to bows (recommended for IWD:EE)
3. Add NPC merchant to Throne of Bhaal or Heart of Winter?

Should be installed before any mods that make global changes to weapons, such as weapon usability tweaks.

---

NPC merchant:

• ToB: Gives access to Deidre's items, Joluv's items, and Ribald's special store.
• HoW: Gives access to Conlan's store, Lehland's store, and Nym's store.

These look great, can't wait to try them!

@dp85
If this mod is EET compatible, and it seemingly is as you mentioned elsewhere, may we get it added to the EET mod compatibility list?

Thankee!

Small update (v1.1)
- Unbalanced Halberd effect chance corrected to 50/50 (was 51/49)
- Aquamarine Dagger now scales to caster level 21 (for THAC0=0), instead of capping at level 20

@Endarire
I'll look into that if I get some time later today. I wasn't aware of that list.

Endarire

Your Souls-themed items encouraged me to start designing more items, including some others which I'll share once I'm done.

Thankee! Alleluia!

(Also, you could add Dark Souls-themed NPCs to a later version of this mod, like Andre the gray-haired smith or Griggs of Vinheim who says, "Goodbye then. Do stay safe.")

Made a few small adjustments:

v1.6
- movement bonus from Frenzy status (Club +4: Frenzy) now uses the stacking percentage modifier
- Stone Greatsword now uses a custom projectile, the slowdown effect hits slightly faster than before
- revised Sling +2: Accelerator - usable by all races, but only halflings get Accelerator effect
- d2#wbag.ITM: A bag of holding containing all weapons from this mod. It's not obtainable through normal gameplay. Use the console or an editor to add to game if you want to quickly test out the weapons.

Great ideas!
