  • RespecMod

    A respec mod for Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

  • My must-have QoL mods are Toybox, Respec, and Bubble Buffs. To the point where I will delay updating WotR until I'm sure these three work with the latest patch.

  • WrathMods-WeaponFocusPlus

    Allows you to use fighter weapon group based weapon focus instead of picking a single weapon.

  • My second-tier mods are BubbleTweak and Weapon Focus Plus. You can play WotR without them but they're hella convenient for the speed tweaks and feat consolidation, respectively. In particular, WFP makes natural-attack-based classes/builds like Shifter a lot better because you only need one set of feats to cover all natural attacks, instead of one set for claws, one set for bites, etc.

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • TabletopTweaks-Base

    Tabletop Tweaks is a mod that seeks to adjust the cRPG rules to more closely follow the tabletop ruleset. Additionally it adds content missing from the base game.

  • After that are the rule-change mods. Note that these create save dependencies; i.e., once you start using them, you'll break any savegames which use them if you later uninstall said mod mid-playthru. My favorite is Tabletop Tweaks, which both adds new features and changes rules to be closer to PnP (mostly nerfing Owlcat's OP cheese); it's highly customizable, though, so if you want to disable the nerfs while enabling the new features, go ahead. But there's a bunch of others: also look up Dark Codex, Way of the Shield, Character Options Plus, and Homebrew Archetypes.
