DRAGONBALL WARRIOR
A Baldur’s Gate 3 Class Mod
By: MrTC89
Current Version 1.9
Released 2/4/24
Welcome to all fellow BG3 and DBZ fans out there, thank you for visiting this mod! This mod was designed with tactician or honour mode in mind. Using mods that increase difficulty are encouraged. (I was going for fun > balance.) I personally use a combo of Absolute Wrath, Player Level Scaling, and Combat Extender. ************* Green Githyanki or Drow for a Namekian This is still a work in progress mod/passion project that I'm constantly improving. I welcome any feedback, ideas or bug reports in the comments! You can support me (MrTC89) here:
INTRODUCTION:
This is a standalone class, "Dragonball Warrior", with 6 subclasses:
"Nameless Namekian"
"Saiyan Elite"
"Z Fighter"
"Frieza Clan Mutant"
"Timelord"
"Android Alpha"
This mod requires Norbyte's Script Extender,Shivero's VFX and Icon mods, and Vlad's VFX mod. Place them all above my mod in the load order.
If you are updating this mod from 1.8 mid playthrough, respec your characters down to a level 1 GENERIC CLASS first, in 1.8. Then save, update to 1.9, then level up! Otherwise respec screen will crash due to the changes between versions.
**************There are no custom races yet, so for now the classes work best with:
Tiefling for Frieza Clan
Human for Saiyan/Z Fighter
Anything for Timelord or Android

COMBAT:
(The first 6 images are the suggested starting attributes for each subclass.)
-All classes have STR as the primary ability except Timelord (DEX) and Android (INT) -All characters have Barbarian, Monk and Wizard tags activated. -The classes were designed without weapons in mind, but all of them have proficiency with all weapons and armor. -Each class has the unique resource "Energy". All actions & attacks consume a set amount of Energy. Here are some highlights of the subclasses to get an idea of the playstyles, but definitely check out the progression list for the full detail, or the videos for the move showcases:

CREDIT: Also a huge shoutout to Vickman/Greatestfighters/Chevisan and the team behind Ancient Saiyan Warrior. It was that mod that even gave me the idea this was possible.Link to Ancient Saiyan Warrior mod And a big shoutout to VivaSortiara! His mods are the cream of the crop and the overall polish and custom presentation inspired me to build something cool.Link to VivaSortiara's mods Last but not least the BG3 Modding Discord is excellent and the people over there seem so generally willing to help novices like me. I was lurking there forever just soaking up how to do random things.
A big shoutout to NellsRello and/or the team at the Community Library. The tutorials over there were foundational to me learning how to do this:

FUTURE PLANS:
-Constantlyimprove sounds/animations/moves
-Make Races
-Making actual Saibamen (right now they are default Danse Macabre ghouls, which are surprisingly decent saibamen ootb)
