Torchlight 2 is a vibrant and colorful loot-driven action-RPG that serves as an excellent alternative to Diablo 3. A colorful, more vibrant alternative that offers the same exciting action, compelling and oh Torchlight 2-so-sweet loot drops, and the engaging and varied character classes and progression.
For the gamers who want to do Modding in the games, like you can use 150 mods at once in Fallout and Skyrim, Torchlight is a different ball game in itself. You can only use 10 Mods at a time. That’s why we shared the mod-packs for Torchlight 2 rather than mods in those packs.
Most of these mods are available on the Steam workshop.
In this article, we will run down 22 of the best mods available for Torchlight 2 on PC.

ToggleBest Torchlight 2 Mods
Synergies Mod
The most comprehensive overhaul mod for Torchlight 2. Synergies is the largest, most ambitious modding project ever undertaken for the action-RPG. It adds new classes, new dungeons, a huge number of new bosses, as well as re-balancing the difficulty of the game to make it more challenging and more unforgiving. Essential modding.

Clear Minimap
A nice and simple mod that makes the minimap borderless to avoid clutter and make the UI cleaner. A very nice little mod that improves the minimap in a smart way. After all, every game should have a good minimap, right?
Download Clear Minimap.
Better Sorting
Better Sorting aims to improve and streamline the automatic sorting of weapons, gear, and gems. It will automatically sort your weapons and gear by rarity, and your gems by rarity and type. It can’t auto-sort by level, unfortunately. Still, a nice little mod that makes loot easier to manage.

WoW Style Paladin
World of Warcraft sure does have a cool Paladin class. What if you could play it in a loot game, like Torchlight 2? Well, now you can, thanks to dedicated and very specific mod. It does exactly what you’d expect, it adds a new class that is intended to be exactly the same as the Paladin class in World of Warcraft. Happy shield throwing!

Pretty Damage
A pretty self-explanatory mod that simply changes the look and style of the damage numbers. If you like the look of the numbers in the image above, then check out his mod to have some highly stylised damage numbers.

Better Blood Effects
A mod that aims to make Torchlight 2 more brutal, bloody, and visceral. Adds better blood effects, more blood effects, and longer-lasting blood effects. A great mod if you’re looking to cause some pure havoc.

Dragoon Class
This mod adds a new class, the Dragoon, inspired by the Dragoons found in the Final Fantasy series. Inspired more directly by those found in the Final Fantasy MMOs (11 and 14), they add a new class to play with some unique skills and abilities. Very nice!

Dwarves
A mod that changes the Berserker class into a dwarf, because dwarves are pretty cool, I guess. A simple mod that adds some dwarves into the world of Torchlight 2, which were sorely missing, obviously!
Download Dwarves.
Fighting Arts
A new class inspired by various anime and manga. A fairly ridiculous character (in a good way) that’s sure to add a bit of insanity to Torchlight 2. Check out this chaotic and explosive class for a more dramatic Torchlight 2 experience.

Red Mage
Another Final Fantasy inspired class, the Red Mage mod adds a new spellcasting class to Torchlight 2. The Red Mage has a mix of melee and ranged skills, making it a menace from close range and far. A very nice mod, and a pretty unique class.

Phan’s Big Pets
If you are like me, one of my favorite things to do in any style of RPG is to have an awesome sidekick as a pet. This is exactly what Phan’s Big Pets allows you to do, it adds 26 more pets into the game for you and they are scaled to be very large in size. Some of the more notable pets that are included in this mod are the cave bear (as shown above), a dire wolf, and even a velociraptor. There are many different pets for whatever your preference is and by your side, they will make those dungeon fights a little less lonely!

Playable Werewolf Class
If you have ever wanted to be an unstoppable beast and tear your enemies apart as a werewolf, this mod is for you! It allows you to straight-up become the werewolf itself. Do not worry any weapons and armor you equip will still work and be active, it just won’t show on your werewolf. It comes with its own custom attack animations so you can really slice and dice as a werewolf would. It is recommended that you use this mod with a claw based weapon, as that makes the attack animations the smoothest. Happy hunting!

Respec and Restat Potions
This mod adds 13 potions for purchase. This includes one full respec potion, one single point restat potion per stat, one five point restat potion per stat, and one ten point restat potion per stat. The respec potion will refund all of your skill points and the restat potion refunds X amount of points from whichever stat you choose. If you make a mistake or simply want to change your build, don’t fret because nothing is permanent thanks to this mod. The Respec and Restat Potions mod can let you customize and redo any possible build to your liking!

8 Player MP
This mod increases the number of multiple players possible in Torchlight 2. Instead of the maximum multiplayer count being six, you can now have eight players in the game. This mod is sure to increase the fun in raiding now that you can do it alongside more friends.

Nethermancer Class
This class is a great addition to the vanilla classes (Embermage, Beserker, Engineer, and Outlander). The nethermancer is a dark caster that can warp through space, spreading diseases and sprouting tentacles! Note that this mod doesn’t perform well in multiplayer mode.

Starter Pets (Extended)

Respec and Restat Potions
As a fan favorite and one of the most unique classes to have been created, the Theolentist Class branches both science and religion (Physics, Astronomy, Biology) in its extraordinary powers. Using the powers of inertia and kinetics, you have unmatched speed and the ability to siphon strength from the enemies.

Blank’s Landmarks
This mod adds a whopping 29 new levels to the game through new variations of many Landmark chunks throughout the game. As an extender of territory, this mod doesn’t interfere with the base files and is compatible with all other mods. All this mod does is include 29 new chunks to all questing areas.
