A7-SkipChateauIrenicus VS SubtleD_Spell_Tweaks

Re: recs, I'm gonna be lazy and link this thread I made - the stuff that adds banters/friendships is near the top, and item mods are a bit further down, though you've got most of the ones I'd recommend. And Skip Chateau Irenicus is the DBG-equivalent I use.

As for the install order itself - are you running BG2 original flavor, or EE? Because I would recommend using this version of dungeon be gone instead (though I think it's actually compatible with the original game anyway).

Skip Chateau Irenicus: EE equivalent of the old Dungeon-Be-Gone mod. Optionally teleports all recruitable characters to the surface, and is compatible with mod NPCs.

And yep, there's a mod for that: Skip Chateau Irenicus

hey, do you still want dungeon be gone? I don't think it was ever updated for EE, but there's a modern skip Chateau Irenicus with a mac version

Subtledoctor's Random Tweaks - https://github.com/subtledoctor/d5_Random_Tweaks - includes a tweak to update all level drain effects with a saving throw. That's everything AFAIK.

I was referring to Scales of Balance and random tweaks, if you're not familiar. SoB, I haven't used in awhile; random tweaks includes some nice quality of life stuff I like (goodberries, cure spells bypass deflection, etc).

I'm pretty sure I said that it didn't change spells that were already in BG. But the tweak to sleep that I use is this one. I don't install every single tweak, but some of them I quite like.

subtledoctor’s random tweaks: a wide-ranging collection of tweaks that will generally make your life easier. “Cure Spells Bypass Deflection,” “Tweak Protection from Petrification,” and “Party-friendly Smashing Wave” are particularly handy. Optional changes to False Dawn, Sunray, and Hold/Control Undead allow these spells to bypass Magic Resistance, and the addition of a saving throw vs level drain makes it marginally less annoying. Some of these changes improve spells or items, others nerf them (eg, changing Web’s effect on failed save from Hold to Slow + 0 APR). All components are optional, so look over the readme first. Contains several components designed to affect Spell Revisions or Item Revisions, so install after those (if you use them).
