If you’ve played Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II – The Sith Lords more than once (or let’s be real, ten times), you’ve probably had that moment. You’re deep in your Force-wielding journey, choosing between Jedi prestige classes or diving headfirst into the dark side with Sith prestige paths—and then you look at your companions and think, “Why can’t they do this too?”
Well, Visas Marr just got promoted.
Thanks to the Prestige Classes for Visas mod, you can now turn the enigmatic Miraluka into a full-fledged Jedi Master, Sith Lord, or any of the other elite Force-wielding prestige classes. It’s a simple mod, but the impact it has on your party’s power and personality is huge. It adds flexibility, flavor, and finally gives Visas a seat at the grown-up Jedi table.
What This Mod Actually Does
In vanilla KOTOR II, Visas is locked into the Jedi Sentinel class tree. Sure, she’s mysterious, Force-sensitive, and carries enough tragic backstory to fill a Sith Holocron—but her class options are frustratingly limited.
Enter the Prestige Classes for Visas mod. Here’s what you get:
- ✅ Grants the player the option to assign a prestige class to Visas after a specific conversation milestone
- ✅ Supports Jedi Master, Jedi Watchman, Sith Lord, and Sith Assassin paths
- ✅ Includes class-appropriate stat boosts and abilities based on your alignment
- ✅ Keeps everything lore-friendly, while letting you shape her development
Whether you’ve turned her to the light or kept her loyal to the dark, Visas can now evolve beyond the basic class restrictions. It’s like giving your poker deck an extra wild card.
How It Works in the Game
Once you install the mod and hit the right point in the story (hint: after enough influence and a cozy chat), you’ll be prompted to give Visas a prestige class. No need for console commands or janky edits—it’s all baked right into the conversation system.
And it’s not just cosmetic. Prestige classes actually change how she plays. A Sith Assassin Visas becomes a stealth-heavy crit machine. A Jedi Watchman gains enhanced detection and debuff tools. This mod doesn’t just give her a new label—it enhances her combat effectiveness, roleplaying depth, and your strategic options.
Why This Mod Hits the Sweet Spot
Let’s talk modding philosophy for a second. Some mods rewrite the whole game, others just tweak a single value. This one lands squarely in the “why didn’t the devs do this already?” category.
Here’s why it works:
- Lore-consistent: Visas already walks a fine line between light and dark. Prestige classes reflect her path.
- Minimal interference: The mod doesn’t break quests, overwrite major files, or mess with balance.
- Gameplay enrichment: It adds decision-making, character depth, and build diversity.
If you’re the kind of gamer who enjoys both Star Wars lore and the thrill of decking out your build like a high-stakes blackjack hand, this mod feels like winning the table.
Modding Tips and Installation
The mod is super easy to install. Download it here, unzip, and drop the files into your override folder inside the game directory. No weird scripts or tools required.
Want to keep things clean? Use TSLPatcher-compatible mods and always back up your override folder. That way, if your mod loadout starts looking like Jabba’s junk room, you’ve got a fallback.
Also, pairing this with mods like Visas Appearance Overhaul, Expanded Force Powers, or TSLRCM (Restored Content Mod) takes the experience even further. Modding is like sabacc: one card at a time can turn the whole game around.
Wait, Is This Canon?
Not exactly. In the lore, Visas remains a Jedi Sentinel with ambiguous alignment. But this mod doesn’t contradict canon—it builds on it. Think of it as an alternate timeline or a deeper RPG route. If anything, it adds nuance and agency to a character who’s already complex.
And let’s be honest—if we let Darth Vader kill younglings and still have a redemption arc, we can let Visas choose to be a Jedi Master or Sith Lord without breaking the universe.
Final Verdict: Prestige for Visas Is Long Overdue
Whether you’re replaying KOTOR II for the nostalgia, the lore, or the lightsaber combat that never gets old, this mod brings something fresh to the table. The Prestige Classes for Visas mod doesn’t just let you customize a companion—it gives Visas Marr the progression she deserves.
So if you’re tired of companions stagnating while you reach peak Force powers, give this mod a spin. She’s earned it. And frankly, so have you.
Download it. Install it. And let Visas ascend.
