Feenex’s Battle Pack: Shapeshifting

Welcome to Feenex’s Battle Pack: Shapeshifting!

This mod is an expansion to Feenex’s Battle Pack: Definitive Edition, which adds loads of new skills, features, and unique items for even more customization options! This mod creates shapeshifting spells for the polymorph school, allowing you to change into different creature forms, each with its own skills and statistics!

This mod requires Feenex’s Battle Pack: Definitive Edition and Feenex’s Battle Pack: Expanded.

WARNING: This mod works through intense scripting and by changing character templates. Many redundancies have been coded in, and many individuals have playtested this for bugs across many hours. That being said, anything can happen. Save often!

WARNING: This mod is NOT compatible with Shapeshifting: Definitive Edition. All support has been moved to this mod only.

• Each form still uses your armor statistics, so gear is important.
• Forms level with your character. As you grow, your forms also grow stronger, learning new abilities and gaining stronger bonuses. All forms grow at levels 4, 7, 9, 12, and 16.
• Free PetPal – While shapeshifted, you can talk with animals!
• All forms equip a weapon which scales based on your highest stat from Strength, Finesse, and Intelligence at the point of transformation. This way, you can build how you like with no interference, and use any weapon/shield combination you’d like outside of shapeshifting! Your gear will be reequipped upon returning to your normal form.
• There are 18 unique forms; one form must be found and unlocked through gameplay!
• You retain your racial skills, BUT NOT YOUR RACIAL FEATS, when transforming.
• While shapeshifting you may only use skills granted by your new form, and scrolls, arrows, and grenades may not be used.

The Expansion adds 2 new archetypes and 2 new presets to choose from during character creation:

• Shapeshifter: A master of transformations, the Shapeshifter can turn themselves into many powerful forms!
• Beastspeaker: A master of polymorph, the Beastspeaker summons and transforms allies into powerful beasts to fight for them.

Six new unique items have been added to the game, each of which will level with your character so you’ll never be forced to relinquish your favorite items! They’re hidden in different locations, and many are useful for playstyles developed in Feenex’s Battle Packs!

A love note to Shapeshifting: Definitive Edition

I love both the Divinity: OS games and Larian. It’s because of my likeness for these games that I decided to dive into the world of modding, and D:OS has been my first modding experience. It was a massive undertaking, but through gruelingly long hours and with the help of a WONDERFUL modding community I took my first steps into learning. My first major project was Shapeshifting: Definitive Edition and although I loved the mod, I was relatively new – which shows in its overall quality. Over a few years, I’ve developed many more skills and learned much more of the Divinity Engine. Because of this, I decided to massively overhaul my first mod, from scratch, in hopes of creating the mod I originally set out to. Although nothing can never be perfect, I’m very proud to preset Feenex’s Battle Pack: Shapeshifting. I hope you all enjoy playing this mod as much as I did creating it. Good luck chasing divinity, friends!
