When an ally dies within 12 meters of you, they spawn as a Zombie Crawler for three turns. Said Crawlers gain a bonus from your Summoning. Not the most ideal talent, as it is better to prevent death in the first place. Still, it can have uses in boss fights where dying is highly probable. In those cases, team members should also take Unstable so that they deal additional damage when dy
You gain a bonus to Pyrokinetic and Hydrosophist, or Geomancer and Aerotheurge that swaps each turn. This is a great talent for mages that use elemental pairs. Because of the way surfaces and clouds react, it is best to pair up Pyro with Geo and Hydro with Aero for damage, buffs, and healing. Since which cycle you start with is random, it might not be as helpful if you lack a bonus at the time of cast
Epidemic of Fire (3 Pyrokinetic): a flame jets between up to five targets for massive Fire damage, and creates Cursed Fire surfaces. Mainly reserve this when Master of Sparks in on cooldown, or you need a ranged att
The starting class Metamorph showcases the Polymorph line of magic. While Larian Studios provides a simple first-level build, characters can be improved by adjusting start parameters and investing in an array of combat ski
Witches specialize in debilitating enemies over time, thanks to their mastery of Necromancy and Geomancy. Their Geomancy tree gives them starting skills such as Poison Dart and Contaminate to poison opponents and Emblem rings works in tandem with Necromancy’s Blood Rain. Both of these skill trees specialize in eliminating Magic Armor and HP from the enemy, and it’s going to h
These new Divine Talents include options to deal more damage, survive enemy blows, and even sneak around cities. While these can be beneficial on their own, talents can be bolstered by combining them with other officially released Gift Bags, like more action points or empowered summoning, and other community mods for the PC vers
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), 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
Malady will transport the entire ship to the Hall of Echoes after around four or so turns complete. This means this strategy can be completed by stalling, avoiding damage, and healing. Place buffs on Malady like Armor of Frost, Fortify, Uncanny Evasion, and Living on the Edge as needed. One will notice that several of the enemies lack certain armor, making them vulnerable to different status effects. The bow and staff Silent Monks can be hit with physical effects like Knock Down and Atrophy; the sword Silent Monk and Weaponized Monks can be hit with magic status like Sleep, Frozen, and Petrify. The Gheists have both armor types, but less physical than magical. They are also the most deadly of the targets, so distract them and keep them away from Mal
While a type of rune may have a particular build theme, feel free to mix and match them to fit your team better. For example, your sneaky thief might have Venom runes in their daggers, but Thunder rune armor and a Frost rune amu
Divine Talents are a completely optional feature. Utilizing them will disable achievements/trophies, so consider these new talents only if you don’t care about earning them, or are on a second playthrough of the game. To enable the talents, when in game open the main menu and select Gift Bag Features. In the next screen, toggle on Divine Talents and then apply. The game will reload (so it is a good idea to save beforehand). If the Divine Talents option is locked, it means that it was previously enabled and can no longer be disabled. If you are in a multiplayer game, make sure everything loaded and synced correctly for all play
In addition to the standard runes, Source Orbs can be placed into equipment slots. These don’t grant passive bonuses, but instead unlock skills while the item is equipped. Because of this, they cannot be combined with frames. Most of these skills can be gained by investing in one elemental and one combat skill tree: Geomancer and Scoundrel for Venomous Aura, Hydrosophist and Warfare for Mass Cleanse Wounds, and Aerotheurage and Huntsman for Evasive Aura. Still, if you want these skills without spending point than Source Orbs a suitable opt
Players looking for a 2H-wielding RPG class can rely on the Knight. While their attacks need more AP, they compensate with decent weapon damage. Moreover, Knights have the Opportunist talent that makes them capable of making stronger opportunity atta
Near the end of Fort Joy, the Seekers and Godwoken will team up to steal the Magister Ship Lady Vengeance. This is the personal flagship of Dallis, and the injured Bishop Alexander sleeps in the hull. Dallis won’t let the player slip away with both her vessel and boss, which can lead to one of the more difficult early quest encounters: Lady O
