What mods should I get?
I have played through this game before but I still want a close to vanilla playthough, I have gone around looking for mods that seemed important/made the game a slight bit better and made up this list:
Awakening Silverite Mines Bugfix
White Teeth
Qwinn’s Ultimate DAO Fixpack
Forced Deathblows
Madd Gift Guide
Faster combat mod
Is there anything else that is just qol improvments or bugfixes/patches that is important or is this mod list good?

Here are a few other mods that I find to be essential but aren't over-powering...

RESPEC: Tired of being forced to use your companions the way the devs envisioned them? Try this mod and you can change the distribution of their Attributes, Skills and Talents.

LOCK BASH: Enables you to open *most* locked items without a Rogue in your party.

BODINI'S ITEM LEVELER: There are two parts to this mod, the first of which you may find to spoil loot acquisition as it enables you to level up armor and weapons to match your current level. Every few levels you can increase the Tier (thus effectiveness) of your gear. (Example: you can make the Warden Armor set (or Cailan's) Tier 7 Dragonbone when you reach level 15-16).

The second part of the mod is very handy as it enables you to swap Runes in or out of your weapons without returning to camp.

I have encountered bugs where armor/item sets become broken and stop providing set bonuses. I have used The Winter Forge[www.nexusmods.com] to fix them. It can also change armor appearance to a limited extent if you want.

It also adds a crafting element to add properties to items (via recipes and materials to buy). I don't know if that element is worthwhile or not, I haven't used it.

Beside the fixes listed in the other recent topic, I'm a big fan of Advanced Tactics. There's also a small patch to fix a minor issue with it.

Leave Wynne Behind is nice in replays. She still joins the party but you can swap her out after she lowers the barrier. Makes it easier to see other members' scenes in the Fade.

Another Stealth Speed Mod and Steal Cooldown Reduced: These two are great when you don't wanna spend an hour picking pockets in Denerim or other high-pop areas.

TSM No RNG: there's a few cases where an enemy has a unique item drop, but it's random whether you get it or not. I think that's lame, and if you agree, then you'll like these two small mods.

Two Specializations Sten, because Sten is awesome and should not be short-changed.

And yesterday I had to install Awakening Rune Fixes[www.nexusmods.com] to fix various broken Masterpiece and Paragon runes.

I like to use the Warden armour mod, it gives you the appearance of the wardens from DA2
