Changelogs
Version 1.4.1
Fixed spell progression at level 5 and above to use level 3 and higher Warlock spells. Requires the LvlUp mod.
Version 1.4
Progression to level 10 for Zanassu and Phlegethos. Abilities level 5 and above have been reordered based on additional upgrades, fixes and testing. Level 10 abilities are quite powerful.
Zanassu: Zanassu poison is now applied to the main hand and offhand weapon via Poison Spray and lasts for 3 rounds. Spider Venom II is now a level 8 ability. Note that dipping your weapon in fire or applying a different poison from your inventory will overwrite this poison. This is by design as poison and fire or any other dippable coating should not stack on a weapon.
Zanassu: Entangling Poison Spray will always apply the web effect to the ground. Enwebbing enemies or slowing them down is a core mechanic for Zanassu and it is the primary source of defense with the risk of the webs accidentally or intentionally being set on fire.
Zanassu: Aranea Spider Aspect no longer grants (or tries to grant) Darkvision.
Zanassu: Agonizing Strike moved from Level 5 to level 6
Zanassu: Infested Webbing moved to level 10. Be careful. Aspect of Aranea protects against spider infestation but it can affect allies. This effect can be removed via fire or acid.
Phlegethos: Fire generating abilities which include Hand of Fierna and Nether Walk will coat your main weapon in hellfire. This is treated as a dippable effect and will not stack if you dip your weapon in another effect.our weapon
Phlegethos: Added Pleasure from Pain to level 6.
Phlegethos: Moved Blast Wave to level 8
Phlegethos: Added Harbinger of Belial to Level 10
Version 1.3
Added the second subclass: Nine Hells - Phlegethos. This playstyle is all about fire and damage over time. Be aware, Phlegethos is a plane of suffering and fire still burns.
Fixed Aspect of Aranea. While this spell is active, webs no longer enweb you and are no longer treated as difficult terrain.
Version 1.2.1
Hotfix to correct a potential crash when leveling up from level 4 to level 5
Version 1.2
Aranea Spider Aspect - Removed Carapace which provided damage resistance to bludgeoning, slashing and piercing. Darkvision range is now 18 to be inline with Devil's Sight.
Agonizing Strike - Required level increased from level 2 to level 5. This still requires the Agonizing Blast invocation.
Spider Venom - Required level increased from level 3 to level 4. Damage reduced from 2d4 to 1d4.
Spider Venom II - **New** Added to level 6. Raises Spider Venom damage from 1d4 to 2d4
Infested Webs **New** Added to level 6. Entangling Webs now causes Spider Infestation for 2 turns. This ability will likely move to level 7 depending on feedback.
Version 1.1
Fixed the issue where the level 3 abilities, Entangling Webs and Spider Venom were not being applied. Corrected typos in descriptions.
Version 1.0
Zanassu - The Spider Demon is fully functional. The Nine Hells - Phlegethos is still under development.

Eldritch Edge Eldritch Edge aims to add custom melee oriented subclasses to the Warlock class in Baldur's Gate 3. Larian has already added several assets to implement the Hexblade. This mod does not intend to add any subclasses that emulate or replace Hexblade. These "homebrew" subclasses inspired by creations on the 5e Homebrew - D&D Wiki, lore from The Forgotten Realms Wiki and my own ideas. Hopefully, you find these subclasses not only viable but enjoyable for your melee Warlock experience.
The first subclass is The Spider Demon. The second subclass, Nine Hells - Phlegethos is inspired by the character, Wyll. Emulating his fire in one hand and a rapier in the other, the Phlegethos playstyle uses a combination of fire damage over time and defense in battle.
Update 1.4 - There is progression for both subclasses to level 10. Some abilities have been reworked for both subclasses, please see the changelog and the updated description below.
Compatibility Please see the article Compatibility with other mods for detailed information and instructions. Compatible with LvlUp and Powerful Characters. Other mods that add classes and subclasses are compatible if they do not modify Warlock.
Installation Compatible with Patch 3. See Vortex screenshot of load order and note that the Patch 3 Fixer is unchecked.
This mod is compatible with both Vortex and Candor installers. If you are new to Vortex or are having problems, please see the article entry on this mod page that explains how to specify your in-game profile in Vortex. This is something that could have been clearer, hopefully this article saves you some time and frustration. For a manual installation, see the modsettings.lsx miscellaneous file.
