This mod will make the Drow a little more powerful, but focusses on sideways progression (more options,rather than bigger numbers). I’ve also tried to keep thes changes thematic to the Drow. Being an apex predator of the underdark, ussually living their lives with a focus on becoming more powerful and subjugating others.

Installation

In the top bar of Baldurs Gate 3 Mod Manager, in the shortcuts section open the mods folder
extract the .pak to that folder
click refresh in the mod manager or restart the program
drag the mod from th right hand list to the left
If you want to ensure this mod overwrites any incompatible mods changes place it below the other mod. if your installing it to an existing save game thats already modded, i reccomend putting it high in the list.
click the export to game button
done

Requirements:

Compatibility Framework – Put this below all race,class and spell mods. Personally i would just put it at the very bottom.

Compatibility:

Race changes ussually require a new save game in my experience. Respecing wont fix it.
Adds Entries to Lists/SpellLists.lsx but should be compatible with anything else that edits this file.
Alters the 6 Drow entries in Progressions/Progressions.lsx Probably wont be compatible with anything else that does the same.

Level 1 – All normal drow bonuses. But instead of being stuck with the objectively inferior Dancing Lights Cantrip, you can now choose a cantrip:

Dancing Lights

Minor Illusion.

Each subrace can choose an additional Cantrip from the following: more options with 5e spells installed

Dancing lights
Mage Hand
Minor Illusion
True strike
Produce Flame
