A new mod for Baldur’s Gate 3 called "The Duo Class" introduces an interesting gameplay mechanic by allowing players to summon an adventuring partner who shares their turn in combat. Created by modder Cheek (Acorntail), this mod features three types of companions: an apprentice, a lackey, or a squire, each designed to complement the main character's abilities in classic RPG styles. Players can initiate tactics during battles and utilize unique tactics from a pool of over 120 different creatures. This mod is particularly appealing following the recent Patch 7 update, which has spurred an influx of creative modifications in the community.

What new features does the Baldur's Gate 3 Duo Class mod include?
