Is there a way to have 5 people in a party?

[Raindustz]

I do not like having just 4. 5 Seems a LOT better. Is there a way or a mod or anything to let me have 5 in a party?

Maybe with mods in the future not possible otherwise.

Yes there is , there's a guide that shows how to get up to 8 people as a mod
the author mentions , it is slightly bugged when it comes to UI and cinematics

5e balance is *generally* designed around 4 people parties. You can swap people in and out though, with no downsides.

There is a mod, but you really don't need it. My understanding is that it involves a freely available tool that will allow you to edit and change a "4" to any number up to 8. I've also seen it said that the UI works much better with 6 or less.

I don't think adding in a 5th character in a party would break the game. Especially on the harder difficulties. 5 people would help a ton.
