Warhammer: Vermintide 2 is a sequel to Warhammer: End Times--Vermintide. It is set in the Warhammer Fantasy universe (which is apart from the famous Warhammer 40k side of things) and has five different classes of heroes attempting to hold off the seemingly endless hordes of Chaos. These hordes are made up of rat-men known as the Skaven as well as the Rotbloods, though the Beastmen were introduced in the Winds of Magic expansion.

Vermintide 2 is a cooperative-focused experience that has players using all manner of magic and medieval weaponry to chop up rat-men. It's gory, straightforward, and fairly reminiscent of Left 4 Dead. However, mods have a way of making things more fun for certain players, and that is the topic of today's discussion: 10 of the best mods for Warhammer: Vermintide 2. All of the following mods can be found on the Steam Workshop.

10 Vermintide Mod Framework

This first mod is actually an open-source modding platform from the Steam Workshop modding community for Vermintide 2. It provides an array of mods for Vermintide 2 while giving new creators tools to come up with their own mods for the game.

Several games have modding platforms like this, such as Minecraft Forge, and they are almost always a boon for the modding community. Whether a player is looking to create mods of their own or is on the hunt for the latest fun mods for the game, the Vermintide Mod Framework is a good start.

9 Friendly Fire Indicator

Next up is a fairly basic idea that, nonetheless, is incredibly useful for a Vermintide 2 player. It is a friendly-fire indicator that tells a player when they are taking damage from an ally. It changes the damage indicator to a dark green when the player is being hit by another player.

There are still some bugs in this mod, but it's still a useful tool in its current state. It can also be further customized to filter out certain area of effect abilities.

8 Berserk Sword & Helmet

This mod adds the iconic helmet and sword of the protagonist, Guts, from the popular manga and anime, Berserk, to Warhammer: Vermintide 2. This addition replaces the Kruber's Executioner Swords with Guts' Dragon Slayer and the base Foot Knight helmet with Guts' helmet.

This is purely an aesthetic mod and doesn't change anything from the raw gameplay. As fun as it would be to just actually be Guts in a game like Vermintide 2, that's not currently an option.

7 Mythical Vanguard

Mythical Vanguard is a difficulty upgrade for Warhammer: Vermintide 2. It boosts all enemies down the line, replaces Slave Rates with Clanrats, and Clanrats with Stormvermin, and Special enemies with bosses. It's an insanely high level of difficulty for players and is only for those looking for a new level of challenge in Vermintide.

This mod had an iteration in the first Vermintide and was called the Stormvermin Mutation, and Mythical Vanguard is the same idea transposed onto Vermintide 2.

6 Onslaught

This is another difficulty mod from the same creator of Mythical Vanguard, but it takes a different approach to increase the difficulty of Vermintide 2. Unlike Mythical Vanguard, Onslaught firstly increases the number of enemies that the player faces throughout the world. It also changes what can be found in any given horde, throwing a few elite enemies in there for some extra spice.

It also changes every event in the game to make each one unique from the others. This is a more comprehensive mod that tries to add a shot of adrenaline to the game for those players that may be getting tired of the vanilla Vermintide 2 and want new ways to fight fantasy monsters.

5 Seeded Expedition Map

This mod allows players to predetermine the paths they will take throughout an expedition in Vermintide 2. Generated paths are generally up to chance as well as players voting on the path they will take. With the Seeded Expedition Map mod, players can curate their own experience and customize their path.

In a game like Vermintide 2, chaos and the unexpected are one of the main points, but giving player's a choice in such matters is always a bonus.

4 Bobblehead

"Big-head mode" is always a popular choice in the modding scene. It's often been a cheat code in past videogames, and, thankfully, the idea has been brought to Vermintide 2 with the Bobblehead mod. All player characters, as well as enemies, can have enormous noggins thanks to this mod.

It's largely an aesthetic mod, but it is also technically a mod that changes difficulty. It makes headshots far easier, and that's sometimes just plain satisfying.

3 Vermintide: Reloaded

Vermintide: Reloaded turns Vermintide 2 into something of a bullet-hell shooter. The ranged weapons otherwise have very limited ammunition, and the game focuses on melee combat. However, Vermintide: Reloaded gives each weapon unlimited ammunition and makes them shoot faster when overheated.

This generally will make Vermintide 2 an easier game to play, but it's still a worthwhile alteration to the game that can make it a completely different experience.

2 Campaign

Each expedition in Vermintide 2 is an isolated adventure that has an overall story, but the expeditions are still separated and noncontinuous, much like Left 4 Dead. The Campaign mod changes it so that the Vermintide 2 story is a persistent campaign with health, ammo, items, and cooldowns remaining through each level throughout.

This mod does require the DLCs for Vermintide 2, as they are included in the full campaign. This is definitely a worthwhile mod, as it makes the Vermintide 2 story feel more cohesive and enveloping.

1 Super-Tide

The Super-Tide mod transforms Vermintide 2 to play like the FPS, Superhot. The gameplay is completely changed so that the progression of time is tied to the player's movement. Other elements in the game are virtually frozen until the player character makes a move.

This is the kind of modding that can really make a game come alive in a different way. Injecting one games' mechanics into another game isn't easy, but it can create an experience completely unique from either of the prior games.
