Divinity Original Sin 2: 10 Underrated Talents Players Aren t Using

Thanks to the depth of the narrative in Original Sin 2 , it's easy for players to get lost in all the story. Moreover, given the remarkable freedom of choice to players, they might find themselves motivated to kill random NPCs to test their Skills . Unfortunately, some seemingly-random NPCs end up being integral to their own sidequests. As such, players might wonder why some quests suddenly end or get cut sh


This class specifically is focused on the necromancer and scoundrel skill lines. These lines are based on intelligence and finesse, and focus on dealing physical damage to their enemies. Due to this, players wanting to pick this class for their main character should focus on these details when building up their charac


The encounter with Dallis can be quite a shock if one isn’t expecting it. There are no shops between Fort Joy’s docks and the voyage aboard the Lady Vengeance. This means all shopping should be done before agreeing to depart Fort Joy, and hopefully, some merchants are still alive given the player’s ability to rampage within urban districts. One should make sure their team is outfitted with good and diverse skill books, high-level equipment, and expendables such as potions and status affecting arrows. Buy and steal items from anyone left in the Fort Joy Ghetto, Seeker Encampment, and other locati


Attributes and combat abilities are something that are granted a point every time a character levels up while civil abilities and talents are only received every couple levels. Civil abilities and talents offer interactions that are useful in and out of combat. So which ones are the most useful for a wi


As with every class choice in Original Sin 2 , there is no one correct option for the character race, but some are slightly more beneficial than others. Dwarf characters work very well - the inherent racial boost of +1 to sneaking saves point commitments later for an ability that is nearly necessary for the positioning-heavy rogue playstyle. Elves are also quite effective; though the Loremaster bump is something of a write-off, the Flesh sacrifice skill is incredibly useful and pairs well with the Rogue's Adrenaline skill to either take the edge off the subsequent AP drop or to set up an action-heavy round. While certainly still playable, Human, Lizard, and Undead Rogues do not offer directly beneficial perks for pure rogues, but can be helpful for those wishing to branch out into more direct combat-oriented builds, with humans especially being quite versatile in their capabilit


That customization is key even when working within the game's prebuilt character classes. While it is truly a mix-and-match system, there are ways to maximize abilities to fit an archetype, filling out a valuable role in the party. For some, the best place is on the front lines as an armor-clad knight, for others the back lines as a spell-slinging sorcerer. Some, though, prefer to mix it up, to strike from the shadows, and character-driven Storytelling leap back into the dark as soon as the damage is done, keeping the enemy ever on their toes. This is the art of the rogue, the stealthy, sharp striker class that excels at both damage dealing and unmatched mobility. This guide aims to help players create their perfect backstabber, giving the tips and tricks for playing a rogue in Divinity: Original Sin


Out of the three, summoning is more useful for a player who wants more distance between them and the enemy. The huntsman skill line is useful for players who only want to use select scoundrel abilities so they can keep a bow equipped instead of dual-wielding daggers. Polymorph is less useful in general but still useful if a player is interested in staying close to their enemies and fading into the background. After that, let's looks at what skills are useful for the Witch in their base skill li


These new Divine Talents include options to deal more damage, survive enemy blows, and even sneak around cities. While these can be beneficial on their own, talents can be bolstered by combining them with other officially released Gift Bags, like more action points or empowered summoning, and other community mods for the PC vers


Grasp of the Starved - AOE that causes surfaces and clouds to turn to blood, summons undead hands from the ground that deal 250% physical damage, and can set crippled to those who don't have physical ar


Whenever someone uses a Source Skill, you have a 1/5 chance of gaining Source; it requires being level 6. This talent is best used once your party can hold three Source Points, likely near the end of Reaper’s Coast around level 15 or 16. The party should have some kind of synergy when using Source Skills of the same damage type, like Arrow Storm and Grasp of the Starved, which are both physical attacks. Greedy Soul is less useful for reactionary and healing Source powers you might not use as of


Crit-based builds work great with this Talent, as Warlord enables characters to get +2 AP whenever they land a Lethal or critical hit. For instance, Rogues that can spam AP-adding skills can easily tear through enemy ranks with Warlord. After all, these characters can land extra attacks with that extra 2AP any
