Divinity 2: 10 Best Skills In The Scoundrel Tree

The Warfare skill tree in Divinity: Original Sin 2 is full of physical attacks that will leave enemies crawling back to wherever they came from to nurse their wounds. This skill tree has two key bonuses for any player who decides to take the plunge into being a warr


Cloak and Dagger is another skill that can be retrieved pretty early in the game. To get this skill, players will need to wait until they reach level four. After reaching level four, players will be able to buy this skill from Hilde in Fort Joy. The Cloak and Dagger skill allows the player to teleport a far distance. The most important part about this skill is that it doesn't break a player's stealth or invisibility. This skill is great to use when sneaking around enemies or trying to break into areas outside of bat


Whether or not it’s worth killing the dragon is debatable, but if the player needs something viable at this point in the game it is a good option. It has a number of perks and bonuses along with the ever-useful Chilled eff


Let's say that a player doesn't want to do poison, or maybe they want to combine it with another skill tree. Necromancy is another great tree to branch into when playing an Undead. Raining blood works well on a few levels. This skill causes blood to rain across an area of the battlefi


Players who don’t have the advised Skills to deal with the Harbinger might want to keep their recovery Skills and Potions close by for the assist . That way, they can continue to outlast the Harbinger as it zig-zags around the battlefi


Interestingly, players who fight the Harbinger focus too much on it and its minions that they forget all the useful things in the environment around them. For instance, the cliff the battle takes place has an abundance of corpses used for sacrifice and Green Noxious Bulbs that secrete poisonous

Morning’s Light is obtained from the NPC Corbin Day either by freeing or killing him. Killing him isn’t ideal as he can upgrade weapons later in the game. It’s not the strongest weapon in the game, but it is one of the better bows that players can f


To avoid the mess of dealing with the Harbinger’s deadly attacks, it helps players to kill its minions first. The Dead Magister Inquisitors and Swordsmen are a mess to deal with in both ranged and melee. And it doesn’t help that the Harbinger aids its minions when they’re in immediate dan


Despite being a miniboss of sorts, the Harbinger of Doom packs a lot of punch in terms of offense and defense. Characters who end up in its path can get wiped in just a few hits. And it doesn’t help that the Harbinger’s minions have quite the annoying set of attacks to whittle the player’s Health. As such, players should avoid unnecessary confrontations with the Harbinger as much as possi


Updated on January 13, 2025 by Rhenn Taguiam: With Larian Studios declaring that its new SLG game Missions is an entirely new IP, fans of Divinity: Original 2 might be hoping this new game could at least be in some form or fashion related to Larian’s hit title. However, with no details released about their new title, fans could only wait for any hints from the acclaimed studio. Thankfully, Divinity: Original Sin 2 has just enough content to offer players with countless hours of gameplay, especially if they’re out to look for specific objectives such as finding the game’s best weapons. Among must-have armaments include a weapon accessible only when players choose to opt out of diplomacy in a situation, a powerful weapon from a fight in the endgame, and two surprisingly-decent armaments they can obtain from an NPC merch


The Scoundrel tree has some great abilities that can be retrieved early in the game. Chloroform is another one of these great abilities that can be retrieved as soon as a player reaches Fort Joy. Chloroform is extremely useful for a Scoundrel player to have throughout the game. It deals direct damage to an enemy's magic armor. If the enemy doesn't have any magic armor left, Chloroform puts them to sleep. The sleeping status effect only lasts for one turn, but it is useful if a player is in a b


Provoke is hardly used unless a player decides to play as the tank of the group and defend all of their allies. This skill taunts all the enemies within the immediate vicinity of the player, forcing the enemies to attack them. The main issue with this ability, other than drawing all of the attention, is the small radius of eff


The downside to this ability is that it causes the character to become muted. They will be unable to use any magical abilities until the buff wears off. Since players will often use this on themselves, melee attacks should always be a guaran
