Divinity: Original Sin 2 Guide | How to Do Melee Builds

In Divinity: Original Sin 2, the route you choose for your warrior will impact how you beat your adversaries. This post gives you three great approaches to create a character that is all on physical strength and accuracy. 

These courses will teach you how to demolish enemies with a big sword, attack from the shadows, or rain arrows down from a distance.

The Rogue

To be a Rogue, you need to know how to go behind your victim and stab them in the back with two daggers. This build needs a lot of Finesse and the Scoundrel and Warfare abilities to do a lot of damage. Backlash and Cloak And Dagger will help you go around the field, while Chameleon Cloak will keep you concealed. 

Sawtooth Knife, Rupture Tendons, and Crippling Blow are all ways to make your enemy bleed or halt them in their tracks. Look for gear that increases your damage and maybe a piece of armor that gives you a benefit to Necromancer. 

You may get an additional edge by using a Thunder Rune or Venom Rune on your weapons. The Executioner and Stench skills are highly beneficial here since they help you kill more foes and prevent them from attacking you.

The Warrior with Two Hands

If you want to be a Two-Handed DPS, you should pick a hefty weapon with a lot of Strength to do as much damage as you can. You should pay more attention to the Warfare and Two-Handed skills. 

You can use Enrage to make sure you get critical strikes and Whirlwind or Battle Stomp to attack a lot of enemies at once. Overpower may break through an enemy's defenses, while Blitz Attack and Phoenix Dive can help you narrow the distance. 

Look for a Weapon that gives you a boost to Crit Chance or Cleave. Putting a Flame Rune or Rock Rune in your gear will make you extra stronger. This method of combat works nicely with talents like Hothead and Living Armor.

The Ranger

A DPS Ranger remains far away and uses a high Crit Chance to kill enemies. You will need to put a lot of money into Finesse, Wits, and the Warfare and Scoundrel talents, but you should also save enough Huntsman points for your other skills. 

Arrow Storm is the best way to attack groups, while Uncanny Evasion may keep you safe if adversaries come too near. Both your armor and your weapon should help you get more critical hits. 

You may utilize other Runes, such the Flame Rune, Thunder Rune, and Venom Rune, to have your assaults do different kinds of damage. The Bigger and Better talent can help you acquire the data you need right now.
