Divinity Original Sin 2: 5 Best Skills In The Game (& 5 That Are Pretty Useless)

As the player and their companions traverse the vast landscape of Reaper’s Coast they may notice that this area has experienced quite a lot more Voidwoken than Fort Joy. Depending on the path they take to make it to the town of Driftwood, they may happen to find a chicken coop out in the middle of a destroyed stretch of land littered with corp

Peace of Mind – A targeted spell that gives the target Clear-Minded which increases their Strength, Finesse, Intelligence, and Wits. Also grants a 20% Accuracy boost while protecting against/removing the Blinded, Terrified, Charmed, Taunted, Sleeping, Mad, and Enraged statu

The magicockerel can be found in the woods near the Elven camp directly north of the coop. His exact location is roughly 438 by 307. When the player arrives at the magicockerel’s location, he will tell the player that Peeper has Void-touched eyes and that the player should kill him right away. At which point, the player is given two choices. To kill or not to kill Pee

However, they can, in fact, save all three family members. If players trigger dialogue prior to the death of member-to-be-killed, they have room to populate the front of the house with crates. Afterward, they can teleport the family member far enough to not receive lethal damage. That way, the cutscene can occur but without the NPC dy

For instance, in Act 2, a Magister plans on executing a family of three. According to the script, players only get to persuade the Magister to stop after he kills one family member. As such, players can potentially save only two lives. Even teleporting the member-to-be-killed will only have another Magister execute them when dialogue resu

Cutscenes in all games follow a certain script – even after player choices. In DOS2 , minor cutscenes almost always show players consequences to their choices. However, players can use this technical knowledge to their advant

With the rework, players can engage the beast if they so choose to attempt it. However, the skill-cap is extremely high and players cannot defeat the Kraken outright as it eventually bails back into the depths before dy

Rangers and ranged classes in Divinity: Original Sin destiny 2 deep Dive 2025 would have so easy to dispatch if not for one specific skill they keep abusing: Tactical Retreat. It turns ranged classes from sitting ducks to slick murderers capable of repositioning anytime for critical dam

Similar to chess, winning isn’t always about who goes first. Rather, those who maximize the first round often wins the match. In DOS2 , players often lose encounters not just because of enemy Skills and perks. Sometimes, enemies can lure players to make rookie mistakes as early as the first ro

If the player can’t bring themselves to kill Peeper, don’t worry. Peeper will transform into a Voidwoken Hatchling with the power to summon several other chicks to fight the player. In this case, the fight is somewhat harder but certainly not a difficult fight. The player is then rewarded only with what they can find on Peeper’s and the summoned chicks bodies which are all Source O

Head into the Fort Joy Ghetto and meet with Griff who is having a confrontation with the dreamer Stingtail . Follow Stingtail to his camp and be sure to move Sebille away (if she is in the party) and have the Red Prince share a dream with Stingtail by consuming his (in reality Griff’s) drudanae drugs. Note that Sebille will murder Stingtail if she is allowed to interact with him, which will anger the Red Prince. Additionally, one can pickpocket the drudanae and attempt to give it back to Griff. Players can either keep Stingtail’s theft a secret and fight Griff, or rat him out which will cause the character Silence to ambush the lizard. One can choose to wait near Stingtail and stop Sile

Sparking Swings – A spell that causes the player to create a spark projectile with every attack for the next three rounds. Each spark hits the initial character attacked and bounces to adjacent enem

Thank the Divine for Teleportation. In combat, players can use Teleportation to reposition themselves and enemies to both convenient and inconvenient positions. Unfortunately, teleporting other NPCs outside battle can reduce reputation and trigger combat. However, there’s actually a loophole for this situat

Like most other classes in this game, the Fighter can be very flexible with other added skill lines. Outside of the main two skill lines, just about any skill line can be added to this class. Three great options are to add Necromancer for a similar build to the Inquisitor , Pyrokinetic for a similar build to the Wizard, or Polymorph for a similar build to the Shadowblade . Each of these builds will be much stronger with added padding of the Fighter’s starting skill li

Attributes, Combat Abilities, Civil Abilities, and Talents are all the other things players have to decide on when leveling up. Attributes are the main points that decide what a player is capable of using and learning. Combat Abilities affect the effectiveness of skill lines, weapons, and defensive tactics. Civil abilities affect playable actions outside of combat. Talents are used both in and out of combat and are useful in a multitude of w
