class=Since you have both weapon attacks and spells, aim to raise Strength and Intelligence at a 3:1 ratio; adjust accordingly if you want to focus on one or the other. Keep Constitution at a minimum, raising it only to meet shield requirements. Hydrosophist should be prioritized to improve healing, Magic armor recovery, and water damage. Warfare will grant a multiplicative damage increase to your melee and Necromancer spells. It would also be helpful to have a point in Perseverance and Retribution, unless you already have them as equipment enchantme

Delorus’ Bow (Bow): Delorus is a Magister in Fort Joy. Rescue him there, and then in Nameless Isle agree to escort him to Bishop Alexander; he will give you his bow if he survives the trip. A good bow that also has the Assassinate sk

Masterwork weapons favor any character that is seeking to deals lots of Physical damage, particularly those that also deal Strength backed damage. Because the rune gives an increase to the base damage, it is more helpful on powerful two-handed weapons. This also applies to the armor slot: since heavy armor starts with more Physical armor a percentage increase is exponentially more valuable than on light armor or robes. For Mystical Frames, Wits is handy for everyone since it increases Initiative and Critical Chance. Constitution is mainly used to meet requirements for equipping shields. And the Memory boost is nice if you have a lot of skills you want to make use of at the same t

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

Elemental Arrowheads is a good way of further diversifying your damage since you can use any nearby surfaces to change or increase your damage. Ricochet is a good way to attack multiple enemies in one attack. Last, pick either Poison Dart or Contamination , depending on your race and party setup; particularly if you are an Elf like Sebille, who can make blood surfaces with Flesh Sacrifice. For first Talents go for Elemental Affinity to lower your AP costs or Elemental Ranger for more damage against enemies standing on surfa

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

The Wayfarer class should balance out ranged attacks and magic. Concentrate on boosting the damage of your ranged attacks with 3 Finesse only. Crossbows should be your main weapon for large damage, but also consider bows if you want to avoid the movement penalty. Be sure to also stock up on different arrows, which can change your elemental damage and cause some status effects. While normally boosting your character’s bonus Civil Ability (Bartering on humans, Loremaster on Elves, etc) is helpful, consider specifically going for Stealth or Telekine

Additionally, melee characters with Warlord can easily retreat, regroup, or reposition themselves thanks to this feat. More strategic players can use the AP bonus to regroup with the rest of the party or make a strategic retr

First, reallocate attributes for 3 Strength. You will be getting up close to the enemy, so aim to wear heavy armor, and wield a one-handed weapon and shield. With this setup you’ll have access to the Shields Up skill to regain lost armor. Stack your Civil Ability point onto your natural racial bonus - Persuasion for Lizards, Stealth for Dwarves, etc. Restoration will be your primary skill, as it heals vitality over a few turns. If the target is Undead, it will instead deal damage. Armor of Frost will be used to repair Magical armor. For the third skill go with either Mosquito Swarm or replace the Necromancer point with Warfare for Bouncing Shie

Flame weapons are great to supplement the power of Fire skills like Master of Sparks or Firebrand (although only the weapon itself, not the power of the actual spells), Tactical RPG as well as strong Fire damage staves or even long-distance wands. Its Mystical Frame upgrades aim towards a pyro focused archer. If you go this route, consider laying out Throw Explosive Traps and Fireball, then use Elemental Arrowheads to soak up the fla
