Best Armor Mods for Rangers: Baldur’s Gate 3 (2025)
This is part of our series where we will dig up the best mods for every class in Baldur’s Gate 3, including the official in-game BG3 mod page, Nexus Mods, and the occasional Patreon when a mod author decides to publish an awesome set there.
I’m very deep into roleplaying. That means every companion gets dressed properly and no one is allowed to run around Faerûn wearing something that doesn’t fit their class fantasy.
Because of this, I’ve spent an ungodly number of hours digging through the best BG3 armor mods for rangers and every other class I play, or assign to my companions. Whether you’re roleplaying a classic bow-focused ranger, a dual-wielding tracker, or something heavier and more cursed, there’s something here for you.
1. Witcher 3 ranger armor mods
We are gonna start right away with 3 mods from one of my favorite games… Witcher 3. You get three sets from the game: Viper (Geralt’s canon set), Manticore, and Bear. Witchers are basically 90% Rangers, and now you can look like them while playing your favorite class.
Link to mods:
- Manticore set: NexusMods
- Bear set: NexusMods
- Viper set: Nexus Mods
Also, below are some pics to see how they look, as well as details on the body types they work on.
Manticore set:
Works on body type 2.
Bear school set:
Works on body type 1 and 2.
Viper school set:
Works on all body types.
2. Monster Hunter set
Link to mod: NexusMods
This is the starting set from a new Monster Hunter game. Even though it’s a starter armor, it’s my favorite set from that game, and it fits the Ranger class perfectly with its dark green colors, and a hoodie.l set:
Works on body type 1 and 2.
3. Sylvanas armor
Link to mod: NexusMods
We move to the biggest MMO of all time, World of Warcraft, with Sylvanas’s armor when she was a high elf RANGER! (get it?) In Quel Thalas. Looks awesome, fits high elves perfectly.
Works on body type 1.
4. Definition armor
Link to mod: NexusMods
This armor is a combination of vanilla armors, put together into a wonderful new set. There are too many sets here for us to try to explain them all, so hop on the mod page and see if there is anything you like.
5. Arsipsik Collection
Link to mod: NexusMods
There are several armor pieces in this mod that could work on a lot of different classes, like barbarians (since the chest piece is taken from God of War).
However, these armors are rugged enough to fit your ranger as well, especially the hood with a cape. Different armors from this mod work on different body types, but all of them work on body type 2.
6. Leathers of the vagabond
Link to mod: NexusMods
For all the female rangers who want to feel sexy, this leather armor set with throwing knives hanging on every belt is perfect. It especially fits elves and drows because it just has that vice to it.
Works on all body types.
7. Black hand armor
Link to mod: NexusMods
Now, this armor is one of my favorites because it basically makes you look like a medieval Batman. The hood also makes your eyes glow red, which is a nice touch. All and all, an amazing armor mod for rangers that doesn’t leave my mod list.
Works on all body types.
8. Guts armor set
Link to mod: Mods.io
I know Guts is mostly a fighter, but later into his black swordsman era he kinda’ multi-classes into a ranger, don’t you think? True to lore, this set has throwing knives and a hand crossbow.
So if you want to RP a heavy armored melee ranger, download this BG3 armor mod, you won’t regret it. Ready to hunt demons?
9. Bloodborne armor set
Link to mod: Patreon (free)
It’s a damn hunter armor set from Bloodborne. I don’t have to say anything more.
10. Traveler’s backpacks
Link to mod: Patreon (free)
The last thing every ranger needs when heading into the wild is a proper backpack. This BG3 armor mod lets you layer backpacks using the cloak slot, and these are the best-looking ones in my humble opinion. The version with the knife and all the tools feels especially right for a ranger.
11. Skirbie’s Death Archer
Link to mod: Mod.io
This last one is a full set of armor, weapons, and camp clothing for Death Archers. This is a perfect ranger armor set that is fully dyeable (and it dyes beautifully since we’re on the topic).
Final thoughts…
Rangers in Baldur’s Gate 3 are in a weirdly great spot when it comes to armor mods. You can lean fully into the classic fantasy tracker look, borrow from other franchises like The Witcher or Bloodborne, or push into heavier, almost fighter-style territory if that’s your thing.
I’ll keep updating this list as new BG3 ranger armor mods show up, so if you’ve found a set that deserves a spot here, chances are we want to see it too. Happy hunting. Also, check out my recommendations for barbarian, and rogue mods, while you’re at it.
