Divinity Original Sin 2: How to Make (& Use) Runes

Conjure Incarnate - Summon a creature that will match the element of the ground they are cast out of. The element will affect what type of damage they deal and what abilities they have access too. Incarnate will last until killed or combat ends. Once the player character reaches level 10 in summoning they will summon a giant Incarnate Champion instead that deals 50% more dam

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

Scoundrel is a skill-based around stealth attacks. These skills are where the player can decide whether their Shadowblade will be a ranged or melee fighter. Choosing this skill line will require the character to almost always use daggers, but can be used as a projectile or melee weapon. With skills from Backlash to Wind-Up Toy, Scoundrel is the Shadowblade's integral skill l

All in all, geomancy is likely the best option out of these but depending on the character's playstyle summoning or hydrosophist are good alternatives if a player is looking to invest in other skill lines. Now that these are out of the way, let's look at skills players should snag in their base skill li

For Rpg Companions your first three skills consider Battle Stomp for area damage (it will deal elemental damage if you wield a staff, but will not Knock Down if the target has Physical armor). Take two of the three: Ignition to light enemies aflame, Searing Daggers to create Fire surfaces, and Haste to improve your AP regeneration. You will also have All In if you wield a two-handed weapon, or Staff of Magus ranged attack with an elemental staff. For the first Talent, Torturer will let you inflict Burn status even if enemies have Magical armor, or Opportunist to get free attacks on moving targ

For new Talents, try out Arrow Recovery to save on expending arrows, Duck Duck Goose to escape danger, Executioner for more AP, Far Out Man to increase spell range, and Guerilla to launch first strikes from stea

Since you have access to so many skills, it might be helpful to get a few points of Memory at second or third level. Otherwise, go for Finesse to increase your overall damage. After that attribute is maxed, go for Wits or Intelligence. Huntsman will be key to acquire certain important abilities. Because you can deal several damage types, go for Ranged ; this gives an additive boost to all arrow elements, making it slightly weak but extremely versatile. Warfare , Geomancer , Pyrokinetic , and other combat skills will multiply the damage of specific elements.

Combat abilities are broken down into all the skill lines a player can get, weapons a player might use, and defensive abilities. Players will want to put a good portion of these points into the skill lines they have chosen as this will boost their damage and healing percentages. If the player chooses the huntsman investing points into bow, if not they should invest in dual-wielding. Of the defensive choices, leadership is the best for a roguish type as it offers a boost to dodging and resistances percentages of all within a distance of the pla
