25 Interesting Facts You Didn't Know About Divinity: Original Sin 2! 

Ya missed one of the best qol recipes: Nails + any shoes = that shoe but immune to slipping on ice. Especially when dealing with any hydromancer, an almost must-have on all the boots for all your characters

This should be called "25 facts you'll probably find out if you play the game"

Don't forget to use stealing the right way. Put all your expensive stuff in a bag then trade the bag for everything the npc has then steal the bag.

Tip: you can combine any weapon with ooze barrels to add poison effect to them for additional damage.

A thing not many know about is that you can get rid of two source collars in Fort Joy by winning with one character, getting their collar removed and challenging that character in the arena with another character and defeat them so they also become champion and can get their collar removed

You can combine skillbooks to gain skill which are not usually sold by npc's . for example: any summoner skillbook + fire skill book will give you necrofire infusion which is a powerful skill for your incarnate. it will also receive a source point. highly recommend

Arguably one of the best rpgs to come out in years

Fun fact, teleporting a shark onto land instantly kills it 🤡

Smite and divinity, my two all time favorite games. You may be an Arthur main, but you have fine tastes on videogames

Undead characters also have the advantage of unlimited lockpicking using their boney fingers!

title should be "25 facts I think are interesting"

My tip for lone wolf duo builds kill all the origin npc on the boat than once again on fort joy to recieve extra res scrolls and backpacks.

I recently started playing this game nice to see it being covered.

For #8, 2 and 2 isn't the best setup for you're going for a more flexible party that can deal with magic and phys armor. I recommend have 1 party member fully dedicated to each armor type with buffs and utility spells just in case they wont be useful in a fight (because that happens a lot) and have 2 party members that have a magic-phys split set with a stronger emphasis on one or the other. Geomancy has spells that fortify physical armor and effects that get resisted by phys armor, so it's the perfect utility type to slap on a phys carry. Necromancy scales with int despite doing phys damage, so it's great to put on a magic carry.

Additionally champion of the fort allows you to fight in the next arena in a special way (I think you get to skip the preliminaries)

Fane: "I'm going to do whats called a pro gamer move"

I never learned to play chess but Divinity fills that gap where every battle gives me that feeling I imagine I would have during a game of chess! Along with being the best RPG I ever played.

I was having a smite burnout and you made a video game about DOS2 so I bought it on steam since it was on sale, and it's by far the best rpg I've ever played. Really incredible game

The majority of these tips are rather obvious or easy to come by things.

funny story. i found the main characters to be rude on the ship. so naturally when they all got stunned i killed them all for their crappy loot xD Fane had the mask with him but was taken from me after the ship level. and all of them somehow came to land and somehow forgot i murdered them all xD

Honestly I just finished my first playthrough ever (on Story Mode) and my god I loved every second. I even ended up romancing Ifan with my lizardfolk gal and it honestly was so wholesome.

>Facts You Didn't Know About Divinity: Original Sin 2 >explains basics on surfaces, armor and oh! look! original characters have their own quests! great game, poor clickbait, shame on you.

New title : 25 things you already know + endings

I'm fiending for someone to play this game with. It'd be a dream to go on a campaign with you

These are mostly basic facts, especially the elemental stuff since it's literally one of the biggest parts of the combat, don't know why they were included other than to pad the time on the vid.

You could grab deathfog by using a sleeping bag before the forced knockdown to grab all three barrels.

im playing this game again after a long break. its just great. the only thing i miss is more fights. sometimes i would love to just do more fights.

Undead can pick locks with their bony fingers. Skill your undead for thievery accordingly.

You forgot Lizards can all also breathe fire, which is kind of a nice AoE for creating surfaces and dealing damage to multiple enemies, or blowing shit up.

Not really a lot of secrets in there. Just 25 obvious facts about the game....

I played the first game. I’ve beaten it on Tactician. It wasn’t easy at all, but it felt more fluid to me. Like I generally knew or could figure out where to go and what to do, and if I was struggling with a fight, I could reload and try something a little different, and it would usually work. So yeah, I kind of fumbled through at times, probably missed a lot of things over the course of it, but I made it. In fact, Tactician probably felt easier than it should have because I had already played several times by then. This game, though, I just feel completely lost. I don’t know what’s different from the first game or what order I need to do things in. Everything feels disjointed. I even went to look up what I should do, and found out a whole bunch of quests were removed from the game at some point. So things I’ve been stuck on and don’t know what to do next apparently just have… no end. The game feels like it outlevels me constantly and just races ahead to where I don’t know how to progress without getting steamrolled. I mean I play on Classic mode and get into fights where one of my characters is dead before they even get a turn. I _never_ had that happen in 1. Everything about it is just so frustrating.

You miss3d on one of Fane's endings: He can also decide to banish the God King, but to welcome the Eternals.

Ayy! Divinity content

#19 Game has cap. You can't reach more than 100% of resistance without taking demon or frost king. I try to make fire healing lizzard, but his max resistance was 115%, but fire give you -15% so he doesn't take damage, but not heal... Anyway, he walk on lava without any problems and that was fun.

Half of these "interesting facts that you didn't know" are literally basic game mechanics, for what kind of player this video is made for? 1. It's literally presented to you, there's no way you can miss at least 2 of these 2. How could you possibly not know about this??? 3. Ok 4. This is literally basic game mechanic 5. Maybe, it's a quest but ok 6. You're being teached this in the training deck at the begining of the game, HOW can you not know about this? 7. Seriously? 8. This is not entirely true since there's many enemies in the game that have one of the armor types low (mages have low phys, warriors have low magic, etc.). Divinit's combat is pretty balanced in this way and pretty much all magic schools are self sufficient. 9. Ok 10. HOW can you not know that an RPG has different endings? 11. Ok, i guess. It's a craft and you learn recipies from reading books. 12. There's no way you can't not know that this game has runes. BTW runes are not THAT strong, in fact using something like flame rune with purely phys weapon is useless since magic damage you get is miserably low 13. Ok 14. It's just a quest, just explore map ffs 15. Why is this even on the list? 16. Imagine reading when you create a character (also dwarves don't ability to fit in small spaces, what is this made up nonsense lol) 17. It's just a perk, read a description ffs 18. Maybe? Basic game mechanic that you can learn from undeads. 19. Ok 20. Ok 21. Just play the god damn game, how can you possibly not know this? 22. Gawin literally forces you into dialogue with him asking for help, these gloves are part of his quest, how can you not know it if you're playing the game. 23. "fact' number 14 in a nutshell 24. Same as 23 and 14. JUST EXPLORE THE MAP 25. It's just a quest, JUST PLAY THE GAME.

You can steal the drudenae plant from the herb salesman on fort joy and replant it and make tons of money selling it😁

The spiffing Brit presents: BARRELMANCY

The Djinn can be fought instead of making a wish. The lamp can be kept for later because the Djinn will level up and give more experience at higher level making it worth more experience on act 4.

"you can use the teleport pyramids to teleport to a pyramid" thats not an interesting fact and i had, in fact, worked that one out for myself

way to bury the lead on that last one wtf

You forgot the main Fact in game - Player can collect all barrels throughout act 1-2 and store them at chip to later create a bunch of explosive barrels in mine end make giant explosion

Still one of the best CRPGs ever. And probably my personal favorite in the genre.

Resistances worked the same way in Divinity 1. I was playing a tank (named Bob Ross) and managed to get my fire resistance up to around 150% by late game by using a toggle skill for shields (other elements were really high, 70-90%). I later also learned that lava isn't its own element in DOS1, instead, it deals fire damage. And massive amounts of it. I healed from fire damage. This essentily meant that if there was any lava in a fight, and there relatively often was in late game, I was theoretically invincible. Not only did I have extremely high resistances to everything, but lava would also heal me for around a mere *35,000 HP EVERY TURN* Bob Ross would later go on to single handedly kill the void dragon with a butcher knife. The dragon was only able to deal about 70 or 80 damage per turn when I had everything stacked up. Without resistances, the dragon does 400-550 damage. Divinity Original Sin 1 was so damn good. Often overlooked in favour of DOS2, unfortunately

I like having a strength based, a finese, a summoner and a support mage. But on tactician this can be a bastard to the support mage. Even if they have super high armor and magic armor, they will always target your healer.

5:04, i love this one, I am playing as 3 physical and 1 magical dmg, however, magical one has glass cannon and does more dmg than all other 3 combined XD

*** Spoiler Warning*** I believe the canonical ending is the one where we go through with Lucian’s plan and the veil is repaired and source is purged from the world. Which explains Lucian being there in Divinity 2(the game that came around 13 years ago but happens in the timeline after Divinity original sin 2)

My goodness it's insane that I just now folded and decided to play this game. Not too big a fan of the turn based games but holy hell is the thought ad writing more coherent than literally every single other modern "roleplaying game" i ever played. All others are basically "hurr hero slay monster"

Deathfog still works on Alexandar in Fort Joy. Nothing was patched out. Also there was literally zero reason to put in all endings just like that in here. Why? Who does that?

Gotta love some divinity content to spice things up

An Inters3ct vid on DivOS2? "A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one".

These are primarily tips that are important for new players to know. The death fog thing is cool.

Can sell ell the sets to vendor n come back after a level up, all those sets can be "Rebuy" at your current level.

Undead can lockpick without a lockpick using b0ny fingers

Pretty sure you could detaill the 5 different possible endings without spoilers.......

But I *DID* know these things about DoS2... So, you lied.

i mean its a good video but except for 2 or 3 these are the most common facts about divinity

suddenly i have an urge to restart a run on tactical

When I heard lizards can dig without a shovel... i remembered my run where I COULDNT talk, barter or do anything with people because theyre so racist against me and the fact that i also didnt increase my skill to actually be able to do that so my friend was my errand boy XD

I played two casters that use ice, a tank and a rogue.

The comment section here has more unique facts than the actual video posted lmao

Omg say before like 20 more times, I need it!

man we play the same games... i have 8000+ hours in smite and 1500+ in dos 2 and 2000+ in dos 1

I wish I had friends to play this game with. I just can't get into it by myself.

Video about dos2 posted 1 day ago wow nice lol all videos i see are like 4 years old

Hey I think the canon ending is the purge source ending (see also all chronically following divinity games (older games))....

I'm ok with new content but please don't abandon Smite content.

Miss the dos 2 content!

Thanks Intersect. I always enjoy your smite content. But Divinity is an amazing game. Have you checked out remnant of the ashes? Maybe a video?

This vid isn't interesting facts you don't know, it's mostly a list of standard gameplay elements you learn while playing

Beeeefooooooh.

I love dos 2 i have modded it a biiit but super worth it

befouah

I know you're mostly on Smite now, but I do hope that you give Baldur's Gate 3 a bit of a try. It seems to be a pretty good successor to DOS

Too bad I figured all this out first time through. Now I need to finish the second playthrough

Be4444or

Befoooor

Beeefaaaaaw

Cool video, cool accent!

cringe af

Over hype game getting very boring very fast, the first one was good but this one is crap!

befour

what's that accent and why do my ears hurt!

Fact about teleportation gloves so useless, its deserved dislike. Here you go

this is basic knowlege
