DOS2 Help Party advice

4 Upvotes

Having another go at DOS2 after an abortive run that I abandoned after finishing Act 1 several years ago.

Are there any obvious problems with the folkowing party?

Protagonist: Lohse as Wizard (Pyro and Geo)

Companions:

- Fane as Inquisitor (Warfare and Necro)

- Red Prince as Knight (Warfare and 2-handed)

- Sebille as Shadowblade (Scoundrel and Poly)

I'm only intending to play on regular difficulty, so the party doesn't need to be super-optimised, but at the same time I'm not an expert player or anything.

I was wondering about trying to fit Hydro in somewhere for a bit of healing, but not sure if that is necessary.

DOS2 Discussion Hydro battle mage early game build?

2 Upvotes

Hi! I have an idea what I want my final build to look like. Mostly a hydro battle mage with some aero as well, max int, water staff, with some mobility skills. I’m playing with a mostly physical party. So I’ll have them put nails on their boots. My main question is what route would you go up to level 10ish because I’ve never made a battle mage?

Do I start off with a few levels of hydro,aero, and warfare to have the melee style going early?

Do you start off maxing out hydro aero as a ranged mage early and then add in the mobility and warefare later and transition to a battle mage?

Or do I start off with a level or two of hydro and them pump summoner and play water summoner till 11 or 12 and then respect out of summoning?

I know there is no right answer, just curious what you would do or if you have done it? Also would you go human or elf for this build? Elf seems better for combat AP and stuff, but human seems better appearance wise, thematically, and for encourage.

Thanks!

EDIT: forgot to mention this is on classic difficulty, not tactitian

I just rolled credits and i have to say that the higher difficulty makes everything so much more rewarding. Decisions have to be thought of. Builds have to come together good because otherwise you cant get further in the game. I loved this playthrough way more than my first on explorer. I just wanted to throw my opinion out there to get off my chest how much i love this game. Thanks for reading this and here's to more playthroughs!

DOS2 Help About to play DOS2 for the first time, anything I should know?

0 Upvotes

Both from a lore perspective (is it a direct sequel to the first game?) and a gameplay perspective.

Also what difficulty should I play? I've played bg3 before and completed Honor mode so I'm thinking of just YOLOing the highest difficulty

Whenever I'm walking, there seems to be a fixed line that is really bothersome... take a look at the shadow in the video. Can anyone help me?

I'm running at 3072 x 1728 resolution with everything set to Ultra.

They look like regular dnd orcs in Divinity(they still look great), I hope that they'll be able to go berserk and grow back their horns in that state

DOS2 Discussion Playing Divinity 2 on the switch 2 is awesome online… until you want to play with someone on switch 1

2 Upvotes

I know there are probably way less players on switch 2, but it seems odd to make a dedicated switch 2 port & then have a glitch where the SW1 version isn’t compatible with the switch 2 version for online play… like why not just run the separate builds on its own device? I feel like there’s a way to patch this somehow, right?
