Updated on February 22, 2025, by Mati Kent-Nye: People who were lucky enough to experience the brilliance of Divinity: Original Sin 2 understand why the resurgence of the CRPG genre it brought was hailed by the masses. Without this game, Baldur’s Gate 3 would not be the beloved revolutionary RPG it is today. After all, it is on the shoulders of Divinity 2 that Larian built Baldur’s Gate 3, emulating what it did well while fixing story and pacing issues that served as minor problems in an otherwise perfect game. Whether players are getting into this title for the first time or clocking in another 100+ hour playthrough, these mods are sure to give them some more content to sink their teeth i

Moreover, Duck Duck Goose on a Rogue can help them maneuver around the battlefield without triggering these attacks. After all, they burn through one AP whenever they trigger Attacks of Opportunity. Unfortunately, that extra AP can still be used to perform otherwise crucial mo
When divvying out Attribute points, it is wise to initially prioritize Finesse and Constitution. Finesse is the governing ability of the Scoundrel skill tree, the central core abilities that make the Rogue effective, as well as boosting the damage on the lighter Finesse-based weapons that are best suited to the class. Constitution will be especially helpful to offset the lesser protection offered by light armor – while it should not be the key stat for the class, having a solid health pool to fall back on can buy the character enough time to get out of danger. Wits is also worth dropping a few points into to amplify the already impressive critical damage of the Rogues, as well as ensuring an early initiative positioning to keep mobile. Strength, while not exceptionally relevant, can be helpful to beef up for some expanded carry capacity and the ability to get some heavier weapons. While heavy armor will never be particularly useful for the class, it does not hurt to make sure that the player can always access the finest light armor and stand up or themself in a head-on confl
That customization is key even when working within the SLG game Resources‘s prebuilt character classes. While it is truly a mix-and-match system, there are ways to maximize abilities to fit an archetype, filling out a valuable role in the party. For some, the best place is on the front lines as an armor-clad knight, for others the back lines as a spell-slinging sorcerer. Some, though, prefer to mix it up, to strike from the shadows, and leap back into the dark as soon as the damage is done, keeping the enemy ever on their toes. This is the art of the rogue, the stealthy, sharp striker class that excels at both damage dealing and unmatched mobility. This guide aims to help players create their perfect backstabber, giving the tips and tricks for playing a rogue in Divinity: Original Sin
Thankfully, players can opt for the 8 AP mod instead, increasing this limit quite a bit and allowing them to be less stingy about using up their AP during every turn. While some people may argue that the game itself has an option for the same, enabling that form of 8 AP leads to achievements being disabled, which may not be ideal for some players who want to enjoy the best of both wor
