First, your primary focus should be Polymorph skills which gain a damage bonus from Strength , making it ideal to have 4 Strength, no Finesse, and wield Strength-based weapons; dump that starting spear that requires Finesse. Most Polymorph attacks deal Physical damage, and will gain a multiplicative boost from Warfare ; so replace the Two-Handed with 1 Warfare. For Civil Ability, boost your character’s natural focus: Persuasion for Red Prince, Loremaster for Sebille, Thievery for Fane,
Frost weapons increase the direct damage of Water weapons like staves and wands. Most Hydrosophist related skills don’t have a great impact on weapon damage, so stacking Water damage can be hard. The Mystical and Power Frames seem to point towards a more supportive caster build that can move quickly, boost ally performance, and deals damage with a mix of spells, wands, or maybe even a one-handed sword. Consider piling on helpful Hydrosophist spells like Armor of Frost, Rain, Winter Blast, and Global Cool
For your first three skills consider Battle Stomp for area damage (it will deal elemental damage if you wield a staff, but will not Knock Down if the target has Physical armor). Take two of the three: Ignition to light enemies aflame, Searing Daggers to create Fire surfaces, and Haste to improve your AP regeneration. You will also have All In if you wield a two-handed weapon, or Staff of Magus ranged attack with an elemental staff. For the first Talent, Torturer will let you inflict Burn status even if enemies have Magical armor, or Opportunist to get free attacks on moving targ
First Aid serves as a handy alternative to Restoration, especially since it removes a lot of debuffs . While it doesn’t heal as much as Restoration, it can remove Diseased, Poisoned, Burning, Bleeding, Silence, Blind, Knocked Down, and Crippled effects. Moreover, it gives a boost to Strength, Finesse, and Intelligence via the Rested sta
Since you have both weapon attacks and spells, aim to raise Strength and Intelligence at a 3:1 ratio; adjust accordingly if you want to focus on one or the other. Keep Constitution at a minimum, raising it only to meet shield requirements. Hydrosophist should be prioritized to improve healing, Magic armor recovery, and water damage. Warfare will grant a multiplicative damage increase to your melee and Necromancer spells. It would also be helpful to have a point in Perseverance and Retribution, unless you already have them as equipment enchantme
Rogues and other stealthy characters need access to as much stealth as possible in order to capitalize on their Sneak Attacks. Thankfully, Cloak And Dagger (Scoundrel 2) does exactly this for sneaky characters. At its core, Cloak And Dagger is a teleportation feature that won’t break both Invisibility and Sneak
Equalise (3 Polymorph): Redistributes all armor and health to everyone equally. This can be used defensively to heal up weakened allies, and also rob armor and health from the enemy. Can be very situational, but a great tool in boss fig
Enchanters become great support characters thanks to their initial Hydrosophist and Aerothurge specializations. They also begin with the Restoration skill, which heals allies. Moreover, this underrated class possesses Electric Discharge and Hail Strike as defensive attacks. Thankfully, Www.Strategylair.Com their specialization with Wands further expands their arsenal, as they can provide free spe
Skin Graft (3 Polymorph): Resets all of your cooldowns. This is powerful on its own but becomes even crazier on Fane, whose special Time Warp allows an instant second turn (though for 1 Source point, and another for Skin Graft itse
Moreover, thanks to Guerilla, Shadowblades get a 10% bonus damage to sneak-based attacks, making them perfect as ambushers. For players confused with their melee DPS class choice, they should pick Shadowblade for the added utility whereas the Rogue makes a good straightforward stealth charac
First, reallocate attributes for 3 Strength. You will be getting up close to the enemy, so aim to wear heavy armor, and wield a one-handed weapon and shield. With this setup you’ll have access to the Shields Up skill to regain lost armor. Stack your Civil Ability point onto your natural racial bonus – Persuasion for Lizards, Stealth for Dwarves, etc. Restoration will be your primary skill, as it heals vitality over a few turns. If the target is Undead, it will instead deal damage. Armor of Frost will be used to repair Magical armor. For the third skill go with either Mosquito Swarm or replace the Necromancer point with Warfare for Bouncing Shie
Terrain Transmutation (2 Polymorph): Swaps surfaces in two locations. Good for either clearing out paths or placing nasty surfaces under enemies. Most enemies will instantly be killed by Lava surface Fire dam
Xhaxh’s Staff of Parasitic Decay (Poison Staff): a possible reward for slaying Xhaxh during the quest A Taste of Freedom , started inside Mordus’ basement in Reaper’s Coast. Boosts Memory and Necroman
