Pet Pal allows you to talk to animals. Animals are constant observers of the intricacies of human (and other) interaction both in the game and in real life. In Divinity: Original Sin 2, strange beasts can give you the key to a valuable chest, insight on lore, or simply share comedic banter. All of these options provide more depth and allow the game to become more enjoyable and less seri

Fans would be surprised as to how a high Persuasion or Intimidation skill could potentially allure or scare potential opponents into submission. In fact, if players use their cards right, they can potentially talk their way out of a major conflict with the final boss of the g

Unfortunately, players who dispatch the Aetera's doggos too quickly might notice that she can just produce Eternal Stalkers ad infinitum. Granted, players can use this to their advantage and farm EXP. However, this easily becomes a battle of attrition — the Stalkers do have a ton of AP and powerful atta

Sometimes, a bit of observation prior to combat can go a long way when it comes to eliminating tougher enemies. In fact, sometimes luring opponents to a false sense of security can give players the opportunity to eliminate them without ever using Sou

Players should try as much as possible to learn AOE Skills , as they easily become great substitutes for Source Skills. Remember, the most powerful AOE Skills such as Hail Storm (Hydrosophist) and Meteor Shower (Pyrokinetic) actually cost Source. However, lower-tier Skills can still deal devastating AOE damage. These include Fireball, Laser Ray, and Supernova (Pyrokinet

It's worth speaking to them for the extra XP, the knowledge that a Voidwoken can fertilize a chicken's egg, and a treasure chest full of loot . This quest can continue once you find the other baby daddy. Oh

Interestingly, players who want a more brutal take on the healing-Alice strategy can use her very Totems against her. Firstly, players should cast Bless on Alice to remove her Aura of Pain. Afterward, a character with points in Summoning and Necromancy Skill Schools should use Rallying Cry on Al

Players can use these Skills defensively, such as retreating from being cornered or getting out of an opponent's range. Likewise, they can use these Skills offensively by, for example, rushing towards opponents, chasing escaping opponents, or luring them to a disadvantageous posit

Just because the game can allow players to control up to four party members doesn’t mean they have to use all of them in combat. The game’s party separation feature allows them to control individual party members without the rest following, making it extremely useful to have stealthy Rogues and Rangers scout areas first to detect enem

Players who have four-man parties likely have a person maximizing Scoundrel Skills. Most Skills in this category utilize the game's Backstab mechanic, where attacks from behind automatically cause Critical Hits. In turn, Rogue archetypes should make full use of Backstab-based Skills to eliminate the strongest-looking foes in an enemy squad in order to reduce active threats. Likewise, Rogues can take care of pesky minions of groups that outnumber t

One of the easiest ways to avoid using Source in combat is to try never to be in combat in the first place. Players who get to interact with NPCs that seem powerful should probably save the game first and try to find ways to talk the enemy into a peaceful conversati

But that cannot be done without some love along the way, amirite folks? In Divinity: Original Sin II you may find yourself flirting with a companion here and there... Or maybe not. But the important thing is that you can! Here is a list of all the romanceable options in the game in case you find yourself lonely on your challenging advent

Divinity: Original Sin II is a vast open-world experience in which you traverse through the world as a person with many challenges that cause people to discriminate, whether it be that you have magic, are a thief (which some people disagree with, strange that) or a walking skeleton . Your goal is to escape captivity and hone your abilities as the world grows col

Though the character can recruit Jahan and have him travel with them to Arx, that's basically where it ends. At no point during any conversation can the player character "put on the moves". It's unfortunate because this was an opportunity for Larian to intersperse lore from the previous slg game units for new play

Normally, Rallying Cry heals a target based on the number of allied totems and characters nearby. In turn, using Rallying Cry on Alice heals her based on her allies — the totems — which will essentially cripple her Physical Armor and even some of her health. After using Rallying Cry, that character should use Shackles of Pain (Necromancy) so both them and Alice receive the same damage. Since Alice loves her Fireball so much, her casting of it might even cause her own dem
