NovemberDivinity: Original Sin 2 - Cleric Class Guide (Tips & Tricks)
Witches specialize in debilitating enemies over time, thanks to their mastery of Necromancy and Geomancy. Their Geomancy tree gives them starting skills such as Poison Dart and Contaminate to poison opponents and works in tandem with Necromancy's Blood Rain. Both of these skill trees specialize in eliminating Magic Armor and HP from the enemy, and it's going to h
The Cleric is an excellent addition to any party, with great personal survivability and magic to help their allies. They might not be the most deadly combatant, but will absolutely make many encounters triv
Due to this class being entirely based around dealing physical damage, the player will likely want to stick to that type of damage base when looking at new skills. This is because when a player deals magically based damage instead they are attacking a different shield. Usually, the best choice to go up against enemies in Act I and II is to keep all the character's damage of the same type to all fight the same shield base. Only later on will the players need to diversify their dam
With this in mind, the only other skills that may work well with these are Summoning, Geomancy, or possibly Hydrosophist if the player wants this character to fill the role of healer too. Summoning and Geomancy can deal both physical and magical damage depending on the skill. Hydrosophist can only really be used for healing and magical damage. Here are the best options in these skill lines for an Inquisi
Larian Studios designed the default Cleric class with 1 Strength, 1 Intelligence, 1 Constitution, 1 Hydrosophist, 1 Necromancer, 1 Bartering; Restoration, Decaying Touch, Blood Sucker skills, and Hothead Talent. A serviceable start but can be rewor
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
Earth weapons are in an interesting position, with slight favoritism towards using an Earth damage staff or two-handed Strength weapon. The Vitality bonus on amulets is a bit wasted, as you will mostly only take direct health damage if you have lost your armor. It can have its uses if you are fighting enemies that deal frequent piercing damage, like assassins and rogues. The Mystical Frame bonuses are a bit contradictory: Warfare increases Physical damage, not Earth, while Geomancer is more likely to help by builds seeking more Poison damage. Still, it is possible to make a melee fighter backed with Earth magic, especially if you are Undead and can heal with the additional Poison spells. Pick up skills like Fortify, Fossil Strike, Earthquake, and Pyroclastic Eruption to round out your abilit
For Talents, go for Mnemonic to save on Memory, Opportunist to keep enemies locked down, Comeback Kid if there is a high chance of dying, and Elemental Affinity for lower AP costs. If you are using Gift Bags, Gladiator and Magic Cycles can also be use
Frost weapons increase the direct damage of Water weapons like staves and wands. Most Hydrosophist related skills don’t have a great Hu Tao Genshin Impact on weapon damage, so stacking Water damage can be hard. The Mystical and Power Frames seem to point towards a more supportive caster build that can move quickly, boost ally performance, and deals damage with a mix of spells, wands, or maybe even a one-handed sword. Consider piling on helpful Hydrosophist spells like Armor of Frost, Rain, Winter Blast, and Global Cool
The Cleric is a supportive healer that also leans into dealing a bit of damage in close quarters or with blood magic. Depending on your team makeup, you will need to decide which direction to take your hero: a sturdy tank, an expert doctor, a life drainer, and cryomancer are all potential aspects. But trying to cover every job at once will leave them watered down from their full potential. Thankfully, you can always restart any build using a Magic Mirr
Moreover, thanks to Guerilla, Shadowblades get a 10% bonus damage to sneak-based attacks, making them perfect as ambushers. For players confused with their melee DPS class choice, they should pick Shadowblade for the added utility whereas the Rogue makes a good straightforward stealth charac
Additionally, Rogues can deal massive damage in single turns thanks to the Adrenaline skill. At the cost of less AP in their next turn , Rogues can make a number of additional attacks – all of which may devastate bosses or stronger opponents with the right tim
Characters gain immunity to being Stunned, Frozen, Knocked Down, Polymorphed (Chickened), or Crippled for one turn. This can only proc once every three turns. You also cannot take Indomitable and Glass Cannon at the same time. This talent is great for increasing survivability, especially for those that have low physical or magic armor. Consider pairing this further with Walk it Off for even more status immun
