Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Battlemage Class Guide (Tips & Tricks)

Melee attacks deal bonus fire damage to burning enemies, poison to poisoned targets, and physical damage to bleeding targets. This talent is only helpful if someone already has the Torturer talent, as it allows them to bypass enemy armor to apply burning, poisoned, or bleed. In that case, it can be good for melee characters that are backed by Necromancy, Pyrokinetic, or Geomancer. Another aspect to remember is that Intelligence-based fighters can wield staff weapons to deal fire and poison damage in me

You gain a bonus to Pyrokinetic and Hydrosophist, or Geomancer and Aerotheurge that swaps each turn. This is a great talent for mages that use elemental pairs. Because of the way surfaces and clouds react, it is best to pair up Pyro with Geo and Hydro with Aero for damage, buffs, and healing. Since which cycle you start with is random, it might not be as helpful if you lack a bonus at the time of cast

Epidemic of Fire (3 Pyrokinetic): a flame jets between up to five targets for massive Fire damage, and creates Cursed Fire surfaces. Mainly reserve this when Master of Sparks in on cooldown, or you need a ranged att

Few mechanics are as helpful as Divinity: Original Sin 2's toggleable tooltips. Too often, RPGs rely on players finding lootable containers without guidance. While an organic way to go about adventuring, players are all but guaranteed to miss powerful treasures, curious secrets, and important quest it

For new Talents aim for Executioner to regain AP, Hothead for critical hit rate, and Elemental Affinity to reduce AP costs; if you are using more spells than pure melee also get Savage Sortilege to gain magic criticals. With Gift Bags, Sadist will deal Fire damage on Burning targ

First, your primary focus should be Polymorph skills which gain a damage bonus from Strength , making it ideal to have 4 Strength, no Finesse, and wield Strength-based weapons; dump that starting spear that requires Finesse. Most Polymorph attacks deal Physical damage, and will gain a multiplicative boost from Warfare ; so replace the Two-Handed with 1 Warfare. For Civil Ability, boost your character’s natural focus: Persuasion for Red Prince, Loremaster for Sebille, Thievery for Fane,

Finally, specializing in Pyrokinetics will give the Conjurer the Fire Infusion and Necrofire Infusion Summoning abilities. The Pyrokinetic uses fire and necrofire to damage their enemies. Taking this skill line will make the Conjurer more of an active fighter who is ranged. The best Pyrokinetic abilities to use for the Conjurer are Ignition, Peace of Mind, Bleed Fire, Corpse Explosion, Sabotage, Throw Explosive Trap, Sparkswing, Summon Fire Slug, and Meteor Sho

Specializing as a Hydrosophist will give the Conjurer the Water Infusion and Ice Infusion Summoner abilities. The Hydrosophist uses the power of water and ice to deal damage and heal allies. This specialization would make the Conjurer a full support and healing character. The best Hydrosophist abilities to take for the Conjurer are Rain, Restoration, Cryotherapy, Healing Tears, Cryogenic Stasis, Mass Cleanse Wounds, Vampiric Hunger Aura, Deep Freeze, and Ice Brea

Specializing in Aerotheurgy will give access to Electric Infusion, Cursed Electric Infusion in the Summoning skill line. Aerotheurgy uses the power of air and storms to build up the player.

While already pickpocketing someone, become invisible to other characters’ vision cones. This is a great way to making stealing much easier, especially in crowded towns or enemy filled dungeons. Anyone can be the team’s thief by investing in the Thievery Civil Ability, but Undead and Dwarves have small advantages: the former can unlock doors with their fingers, and the latter gains a bonus to Sneaking to initiate crimes in the first place. Stealing from others is the best means of making money or nabbing key items instead of completing a qu

When an ally dies within 12 meters of you, they spawn as a Zombie Crawler for three turns. Said Crawlers gain a bonus from your Summoning. Not the most ideal talent, as it is better to prevent death in the first place. Still, it can have uses in boss fights where dying is highly probable. In those cases, team members should also take Unstable so that they deal additional damage when dy

Still, it can be somewhat immersion-breaking that these merchants have none of the items they were peddling to players before their death. This changes with the advent of the Full Loot mod, which ensures that merchants who have been struck down die with all their wares in their possession, allowing players to loot their bodies and obtain every single item without too much of a f
