PC RPG games like Wartales are always popular in the modding community. The game has masses of stats to tinker with, a large variety of characters and equipment, and a huge map. The modding opportunities it represents are only limited by the imagination, and as the game has been a big sleeper hit, I’m expecting some really interesting (and probably disturbing) things from the modding community. Below you’ll find the best Wartales mods we’ve seen so far, with many sure to follow.

The five top Wartales mods
Note that, as you are replacing a single file, you canonly have one of these mods runningat any one time.
5. Half XP mod
This basic mod is very much a cheat mode, allowing your Wartales companions to go through the levels withonly half of the experience points usually required. It’s not exact, as the example used shows a character needing 500xp to gain a level rather than 980xp, but it’s certainly close enough. This will make you very powerful very quickly, and you’ll be able toequip some very nice gearin the early regions, as long as you can craft or find it.

4. Upgrade All mod
Not too much to say about this one, except that you canupgrade every type of weaponin the game by going to the Brotherhood Training Grounds scattered around the regions rather than just Legendary Weapons. This will be very useful for players who happen to have set their team up in a way that has many units using the same weapon type or who don’t particularly like the abilities on some of theLegendary Weapons(some are a bit niche, in my opinion).

3. A la Carte mod
Rather than having to find recipes on vendors or elsewhere around the maps,all starting recipeswill beautomatically availablefor you to selectin the Knowledge menus. This includes class specializations, mastery knowledge, meals, armor layers, camp gear,oils, and other apothecary items, tinkerer, and forge items. Some items may not be available until you have created a previous version, but this is a fantastic cheat forthose who love crafting.

They’re fully fleshed-outclasses that use Willpoweras their main combat stat. It alsoallows you to have a healerfor the first time since the official launch, thanks to the Druid.

1. Champions of Wartales mod
This is a radical and ambitious mod. According to the creator, the idea is to play withfour unique playable champions,which willreduce long and repetitive battles. This means shorter, deadlier encounters with fewer enemies, advanced skills, new classes, and new items. The mod comes with a short video showing one of the champions taking out several enemies in a single round due to both strong multiple attacks and movement, so if you want amore heroic feel to the game,it’s definitely worth a look.
