The Wizard starts with the Pyrokinetic and Geomancer skill lines. These skills give the Wizard power over fiery destruction, oil spills, earthquakes, and poison. Which offers an explosive combination of ski

A lot of areas in DOS2 contain traps - be it explosive traps or poisonous gas. Unfortunately, these traps become extremely inconvenient for exploration and severely irritating when in combat. However, players can actually avoid pesky traps by making other objects trigger the traps instead of them. For instance, players can levitate and throw barrels, chests, and crates in traps they discover so their characters can stay away from the

Make sure that Ifan is in the active party when attacking Bishop Alexander at the pier. Ifan will express displeasure if he wasn’t at the fight. Once stealing the Lady Vengeance, the Godwoken will find that Alexander is somehow still alive. Allow Ifan to rough up the Bishop, or better yet kill him again for good measure. Also, be sure Ifan is among the party when departing for Reaper’s Coast, or he will die on the voy

The main character should have high Persuasion to convince NPCs of their position. In many cases, Telekensis can be useful to grab quest items without provoking enemies or guards. Many of Lohse’s storyline foes are demons who have a preference to cast fire magic and have high fire resistance. To counter this it may be wise to bring a water-based mage with Armor of Frost and Rain , or rely on physical damage weapons. Depending on a player’s actions in Reaper’s Coast, demons may be rampant in Arx and appear in surprising locations. This can result in some urgency to protect bystanders with spells like Nether Swap , Uncanny Evasion , and Cryogenic Stas

In civil abilities, if the player is making their main character the wizard they should invest in persuasion as it has a large impact on what the player can accomplish throughout. If not, the loremaster and telekinesis abilities are useful for moving heavy objects on a weak character and identifying armor and weapons found on the battlefi

Players who want to maximize their DOS2 experience may have tried diversifying their party combination by trying different races for Palms Shield collectible each of their party members. As such, aside from custom characters, characters like Sebille (Elf), the Red Prince (Lizardfolk), Fane (Undead), Ifan (Human), or even Beast (Dwarf) can trigger different interactions that show a bit about their culture and soci

Outside of the Scoundrel skill line, the rest of these don't require the player to change what choice of weapons they use. The Scoundrel skill line requires one or two daggers to be equipped. An alternative for Enchanters that still want to be deadly from afar can go into the Huntsman skill line. Now that we've covered the alternatives, let's go over the base skill li

Depending on playstyle, the player can add any of these skill lines, a mixture, or none at all. Just using the base skill lines is still a very viable option for players who want to stay as a pure mage. What skills in the pyrokinetic and geomancer skill line are the b

The attributes are broken down into Strength, Finesse, Intelligence, Constitution, Memory, and Wits. For the Wizard, Intelligence and Memory are the most important of these to dump points into. Intelligence will cause all magic-based abilities to deal a higher percentage of damage, while Memory will give them the ability to learn more skills at once. If the player wants to use a more aggressive playstyle they should consider investing a few points into Strength and Constitution as well as it will help them deal more melee damage and stay alive a little lon

Nemesis demons prowl Arx disguised as humans. If players helped the Advocate, they will be very friendly and provide quest hints. If the Advocate was killed, these demons will expose their true forms and ambush the party in the open streets and public ar

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

The area is engulfed in war between the Magisters and Black Ring. As a Lone Wolf, Ifan can offer his services to safely side with the Black Ring. Both he and Gareth want to confront Alexander within the Elven Temple. Gareth’s side quest takes priority and may result in the permanent death of Alexander. If so, use Spirit Vision to allow Ifan to bicker with the Bishop. Also, be aware that certain objectives for Sebille, Red Prince, and Fane may result in the collateral death of Alexander or cause the Temple NPCs to be host

There are multiple entrances into the ghetto, including the front gate and ladders over the walls. If the latter was selected, the party will need to approach the gate anyway and get the attention of Magister Borris . He will give Ifan a contract to slay the elven seer Saheila, which is purely optional. The contract can also be looted off Borris (or his corpse). The note will lead to Zaleskar in Hollow Marshes, who will award Ifan a special crossbow, Shadow’s Eye , which deals piercing damage and grants Chameleon Cloak. Be careful if Sebille is the main avatar, she will need to make a high Persuasion check to keep Zaleskar from attacking; companion Sebille always succeeds in talking him d
