Vermintide 2 modshave done everything from tweaking some of the game’s shortcomings, adding references to other parts of Warhammer lore, and inserting new gameplay mechanics for players to enjoy. Vermintide 2 mods are varied and useful, and there is always more to find back on the Steam Workshop.
18Numeric UI Makes The Display More Useful With Hard Numbers
Sometimes a seemingly minor alteration can make a major difference for a videogame, and this is true with manyVermintide 2mods. Such is the case for theNumeric UI mod from Necrossin and Milborin particular. It changes the HUD of the game to have more numeric values to make information clearer for the player.
As it is, health, ammo, and cooldown timers don’t give hard numbers to keep the player abreast of their character’s status, and the Numeric UI mod rectifies all of this by providing actual number values to these as well as status icons for “Last Life” and “Natural Bond.” This mod does require the Vermintide Mod Framework to operate (which will be discussed later in this list).
17Different Bots Improves And Alters Your Allies' AI
There is no perfect AI in a video game. Even some of the most lauded AI frameworks used in games likeLast of UsorShadow of Mordorhave some degree of issue. Unfortunately, this is also true with the friendly AI’s inVermintide 2.This is another issue that can be tweaked and improved throughVermintide 2mods. In this case, aid comes in the form of theDifferent Bots mod by VernonKun.
This mod alters the AI of the friendly characters so that they are less likely to get in the player’s way in combat, improves path learning so they’re less likely to get stuck, improves their aiming and dodging, and does several other things to make the friendly AI-controlled characters better, smarter, and more helpful.
16The Disc Of Tzeentch Gives The Player A Nice Ride
The Disc of Tzeentch from Crunch, dalo_kraff, Raindish, and Cravenadds a vehicle for the player to enjoy courtesy of the Chaos God Tzeentch. For the uninitiated, Tzeentch is a daemonic god who specializes in elaborate and vicious schemes made to turn mortals against one another and increase his own immense power.

The Disc of Tzeentch is a flying disc that allows the player to glide at faster speeds across the landscape ofVermintide 2. It is a swift and enjoyable way of moving through the rat-ridden world, and it’s the kind of general fun that can be added to the game throughVermintide 2mods.
15Super Vortex Changes The Blightstormer’s Vortex
The Super Vortex modalters the Blightstormer’s wind spell so that it picks up all enemies instead of just a select few. As it is and without anyVermintide 2mods, the Blightstormer’s attack only affects players and enemies excluding Chaos Warriors, the Monster mini-bosses, and proper bosses. With this mod, it will affect those heavyweight enemies as well.
This adds a bit more chaos to the already hectic gameplay experience ofVermintide 2and is a welcome addition to anyone who wants to change things up a bit. This mod was designed by Steam Workshop user raindish.
14Zealot - Chaos Wastes Improvement Allows The Zealot To Show Their Devotion
This is among theVermintide 2mods that amp up the difficulty a little bit for a player, but, in doing so, it also allows them to roleplay a bit if they know some of the background lore to theWarhammer: Age of Sigmarfantasy universe. This one is called theZealot - Chaos Wastes Improvementmod.
This mod makes it so that the Zealot class cannot pick up boons in the Chaos Wastes portion of the map. This is to show how stalwart the Zealot is in their beliefs, as they would not pick up any “boons” that the forces of Chaos would offer them. This mod comes from user Prismism.
13Bardin’s Scoreboard Adds A Bit Of Flavor To The UI
Bardin is the Dwarf member of theVermintide 2crew, and, as is often the case with Dwarves in fantasy, is the character with one of the loudest and most boisterous personalities of the bunch.

This mod aims to capture Bardin’s personality and change up the scoreboards at the end of each chapter to reflect Bardin’s view of the world.Bardin’s Scoreboardis a funny alteration to the game that adds phrases like “Vengeance Struck” and “Umgak Weapon Mishaps” to the scoreboard screen. This one comes from modder KrazedKirb.
12Toss Me Allows The Player To Recreate An UnforgettableTwo TowersScene
TheToss Me modtakes inspiration from an unforgettable scene inLord of the Rings: The Two Towersduring the Battle of Helm’s Deep. When Aragorn and Gimli are attempting to hold off the Uruk-Hai from entering the keep, they drop on the hordes from above. However, Gimli is too short to make the jump, so tells Aragorn, “toss me.”
This mod allows players to “toss” Bardin at a 45-degree incline in whatever direction Bardin is already facing. In addition to being hilarious, it does allow the player to send Bardin into the thick of things and mix things up with the unending hordes of Chaos. This one comes from Steam user Alexander.
11Dark Elf Dagger Adds A Sweet New Model To The Game
TheDark Elf Dagger modreplaces an asset in the game with something else from theAge of Sigmarside of theWarhammeruniverse. It specifically changes Daith’s Throatslitters to resemble the Dark Elf daggers fromTotal War: Warhammer IIgame.
There are plenty ofVermintide 2mods that add cool community-created assets such as this. The Dark Elf Dagger mod weapons look fantastic andwere designed by Steam user Crunch. The mod comes courtesy of Crunch and dalo_kraff.
