Starting my second playthrough I decided to be a ranger. Prior to this I had only used ranged weapons a little. I was surprised to notice that all ranged weapons seemed to have a range of 18 meters, same for max throwing range. It meant there was little reason to look at anything other than max damage.
Now there is a variety to the distances. Longbows are up to 27 meters now and everything else scales down from there to a minimum of 12 for the hand crossbow.
Thrown items are limited at 15 meters. Weight scaling has been adjusted a bit to require more strength to throw heavier things like barrels farther than the minimum distance of 3 meters.
While I was there, I tried to balance the range of some melee weapons too. By default all melee weapons with the exception of polearms had a range of 1.5 meters. Polearms were 2 meters. Large/long weapons(Two-handers and spears/tridents) now have a reach of 2 meters. Polearms now have a reach of 2.75 meters. All others melee weapons are unchanged.
Now with new versions, including DnD5E version (Distances may be unbalanced and may even need a camera mod to fully use)
Install with BG3MM
This is my first published mod on Nexus, so if I messed something up, please let me know.
Incompatible with:
Weapon Skills While Dual Wield <--Using Ranged only version after this mod will work fine. Special thanks the the creator of that mod for assistance.
Finesse Weapons Extended <-- Allow it to overwrite my mod to add my ranged/throwing changes to their mod (Untested, should work, let me know if you try it)
FAQ:
Will this work with other mods?: Probably, I only changed base weapon values, all base game magic weapons and mod weapons add their modifiers to that list afterwards. If they edit the base weapon data then it will be based on load order.
Does the AI benefit too?: Yes, they have the same range adjustments. They will not start combat from outside normal distance though (way beyond scope of mod)
