Divinity: Original Sin 2 has more to magic than merely tossing fireballs. You may change the battlefield, bring your comrades back from the dead, or even use the blood of your foes against them. This article shows you four alternative methods to learn the arcane arts so you can help your team or beat your enemies.

The Necromancer

This path is very easy to follow and works very well, especially if you have friends who use physical weapons. As a Necromancer, you put most of your points into Warfare and some into Necromancer and Hydrosophist. You also put a lot of points into Intelligence and Wits. 

You may use Blood Rain to soak the ground and then Grasp Of The Starved or Blood Storm to do a lot of damage. Corpse Explosion may terminate a conflict swiftly if there are corpses on the ground. 

You should employ Wands and items that make it more likely that you will get a Crit. Elemental Affinity and Savage Sortilege are two talents you need so that your spells may crit and cost less while you stand in blood.

The Aero Enchanter

The Aero Enchanter is for you if you want to cast spells up close. This build is all around Intelligence and the Aerotheurge skill. You will use strong spells like Closed Circuit, Super Conductor, and Vacuum Aura to battle up close. 

You may utilize Evasive Aura to keep safe, or you can walk away using Tactical Retreat. Using an Aerotheurge Staff and gear that boosts your Crit Chance is the best way to go. If you have a Thunder Rune on your gear, it will make your lightning power stronger. 

The Executioner skill lets you do more things after you murder someone, which keeps the pressure on.

The Aura Caller

The Aura Summoner is an excellent support position to have with a warrior. The most important thing for you to do is to get Summoning to level 10 as quickly as you can. You will use Conjure Incarnate on your turn and then Power Infusion and Farsight Infusion to make it stronger. 

The usage of auras like Venomous Aura or Vampiric Hunger Aura to benefit your entire team is what makes this setup unique. You also help out with Haste, Peace of Mind, and Mass Cleanse Wounds. 

The Stench skill helps keep adversaries away from you since you aren't the primary focus. You may wear any item that makes your elemental talents better and employ Runes like the Flame Rune or Rock Rune.

The Priest

The Cleric is the best guardian since they concentrate on keeping everyone alive. To heal more, you need to have a high Constitution and points in Hydrosophist. Your mission is to employ Fortify, Mend Metal, and other water spells to keep your team's health and armor up. 

You may also utilize Teleport or Battle Stomp to move adversaries around. For added safety, it's preferable to carry a Mace or Sword with a Shield. This build works best if you have the Living Armor skill and a high Leadership score, which will help the people around you.
