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

Characters gain talent points at level 1, 3, 8, 13, 18, 23, 28, and 33. Divinity Original Sin 2 is programmed for more points at higher levels, but due to the limited amount of experience points, it is likely most parties will complete the game at level 22

However, some might argue it's these little rusty parts that make Original Sin 2 a unique experience. Players having to rummage through their journal to find that "one clue" is an experience in itself. After all, Tyranny Spellcrafting real-life adventures don't have glowing pointers in text messages or lett

Being a melee-oriented build, the Dwarf Knight can enjoy a more aggressive approach to higher-level fights with enough points in Warfare. For instance, forcing enemies to gather around them via Provoke and then attacking them with the all-rounder Whirlwind (Warfare 2) can easily constitute a melee combo. Higher-level plays can enjoy tanky builds via damage-absorbing Guardian Angel or multi-hitting Onslaught (Warfare

While players can technically "change" the way their starting Classes work through the game’s unique Skill distribution system, a Human Rogue may be one of the most efficient ways to start the game. At its core, this taps into the balanced stat distribution of Humans while at the same time eliminating opponents through harsh backstabs and sneak atta

When divvying out Attribute points, it is wise to initially prioritize Finesse and Constitution. Finesse is the governing ability of the Scoundrel skill tree, the central core abilities that make the Rogue effective, as well as boosting the damage on the lighter Finesse-based weapons that are best suited to the class. Constitution will be especially helpful to offset the lesser protection offered by light armor - while it should not be the key stat for the class, having a solid health pool to fall back on can buy the character enough time to get out of danger. Wits is also worth dropping a few points into to amplify the already impressive critical damage of the Rogues, as well as ensuring an early initiative positioning to keep mobile. Strength, while not exceptionally relevant, can be helpful to beef up for some expanded carry capacity and the ability to get some heavier weapons. While heavy armor will never be particularly useful for the class, it does not hurt to make sure that the player can always access the finest light armor and stand up or themself in a head-on confl

Eager to enter the thick of battle, Warfare immediately has access to rushdown Battering Ram, knockdowning Battle Stomp, and long-ranged Bouncing Shield (Warfare) to cover most combat positions. At higher levels, Warfare characters can enjoy multi-targeting Blitz Attack, projectile-bouncing Deflective Barrier, and fiery jump Phoenix Dive (Warfare 2) to further diversify their aggression opti

Aggression is key when playing a Pyrokinetic, with surround-based AOE Ignition and long-distance Searing Daggers (Pyrokinetic 1) easily providing decent combat options. More potent AOE Fireball and precise-targeting Laser Ray (Pyrokinetic 2) could make for reliable burst damage Skills while leveling up as w

Eagle-eyed players might find some aspects of Original Sin 2 for the PC a bit "hit-and-miss." For instance, while the moral ambiguity of the story remains as one of its highlights, some elements of gameplay make Original Sin 2 a bit "wonky" for PC players. For instance, the aforementioned Journal was indeed messy in the original title. Moreover, difficulty in conversation skill checks may need some w

The Lizard Metamorph's innate Resistances allow them to stay in the frontlines without many risks, especially from spellcasters who usually like slinging fire and poison effects in their direction. This also makes the Lizard Metamorph relatively tanky, making them effective pawns for the team's spellcasters to have a more solid AOE by using them as the main point of their explosive abilities. The Lizard may even be able to piggyback on such a strategy with their own flame breath or assortment of transforming atta

Others think this Talent is useless, but this skill can be helpful for Elves (with Flesh Sacrifice) or Rogues, such as Sebille. Since Flesh Sacrifice creates a blood pool below the Elf, Leech can use this to heal them. Moreover, Leech can be useful for characters who end up being targeted a lot by oppone
