Looking for additional content mod suggestions on next play through.

Thinking about playing through the whole DAO through end of DDA2 for my second time.

 

So, I was wondering, what story content addon mods do you suggest that are completely stable and bug free? Stuff that would supplement the original campaign.

 

Also, what stand alone campaigns are there, if any? Where you start fresh in a new story?

Some "musts" for original campaigns, in my view are :

 

 


  1.  
  2. Dark Times part one - sadly part 2 has never materialised, but this add-in extends the original campaign significantly (new companions, spells, equipment, maps/worlds, side quests....)
  3. Quests and Legends - massive and extremely challenging add-in that, in addition to new companions, spells, skills, equipment, maps, quests, requires serious rethinking of battle tactics
  4. Ser Gilmore NPC

Thanks. I was thinking of playing through on the hardest mode anyhow, which is nightmare? I cant remember. Anyhow, if I play on the hardest setting, will Quests and Legends be too hard?

 

And I can install all those from the start and not mess up the main story?

Q&L is ........ shall we say challenging? I would not go higher then "hard" on a first runthrough - even on "hard", a few encounters will prove extremely difficult. Unless you pause every 2 seconds and analyse what is happening around you, it's likely that you'll get your ass handed to you on a plate on several occasions before you understand what's happening - some encounters move VERY quickly and your whole party can be down and out in 10 seconds...

 

If you plan to install any of these mods, you'll get more out of them by installing them before a new game - all of the mods are integrated into the original campaign so where a mod begins and where the original ends is a matter of conjecture.

 

Suggest you read the comments on the Nexus related to each of these mods (in the files section) - the exchanges are very positive and helpful.

 

Enjoy!

 

PS - nightmare IS possible in Q&L but it took me a long time to achieve it!
