This is incredible, from the game, the build, the music choice to the editing. As much as I like dragon's dogma it's nice to see a different game, that isn't skyrim.
Divinity 2 is so much freaking fun, and I'm not even a fan of turn based games. It's just so cool to be able to mix and match your attacks to synergize with the environment, like being able to plop some rain down to make puddles, then setting that puddle on fire to turn it into a cloud of steam, and then electrocuting that steam cloud into an instant death trap. The game is crazy with all the kinds of stuff you can do with it! (And the mods are really good too!)
I’ve been waiting so long for a divinity vid. I myself have put like 500-700 hours into this game, this is the best game in my steam library. Thank you for making a video on it

@@Kickass_gamer007 tbh if you're not playing necromancer you can play without leech. It only works on vitality damage anyway and at that point the ennemy's pretty much dead anyway. the rest of the time potions are enough most of the time

Enjoy!
As a Summoner mage player, the biggest downgrade of the necromancy tree was not being able to summon your own skeleton dudes to pick a bone with the enemy. I can understand balancing each skill for the game so you don't rely on one skill but how can you add an optional fight where the enemy can summon skeleton minions but the best you can do is a man-eating plant, a killer toy, a slug that shoots a laser beam made of fire and a tiny gremlin that has puberty hit them like a train the moment you hit a summoning rank of 10?
Original sin 1's summons are 8x better. From spiders, to actual skeletons, to elementals, to even a zombie named Nick who throws his foot. Although Original sin II's story and lore and significantly more interesting (in my opinion) I's enemies, skills, and summons are unmatched
Gotta say, yeah, Necro is down OP, played with a friend Lone Wolf Duo on Max dificulty+Honor Mode and the Necro skill that doesn't let you die carried our asses all the way lmao.
The real OP strat is getting 3 teleports on your team, porting the enemy all in one place, and hitting them with a pyroclastic eruption. Though admittedly it's endgame stuff.
Every time i play this game no matter how hard i try my party ends up with 1 necro, 3 walking corpses with as many TP spells as i can fit and then i just mass corpse explosion every single combat encounter
You just made me look into this game. I've been seeing it for years but never really paid much attention, might actually try this game once steam sales rolls around
It's definitely worth it, especially with the sheer amounts of attention to detail the devs put into the game. The combat is so much fun in this game and the story is also really well thought out. I highly recommend it!
I've been stirring and cooling off my coffee for the entirety of this video. Also I wanted to know more about necromancer after I decided to try it out with two of my friends. One of which knows more than me and introduced me and the other is like a child we have to keep supervision on or she'll start a battle early or get herself killed
I just beat the game on tactician for my first playthrough (not honor mode, though), and I just feel so weak in comparison to the sheer power I just witnessed.
Necro and summoner are the two strongest classes to go into, so that's unsurprising. Not to mention that these are likely fully optimized characters with stats, equipment, and the major boost from Lone Wolf
Yeah, Lone Wolf Necromancers with enough polymorph to Apotheosis and Skin Graft (also so they can max out wits with Savage Sortilege to crit on top with max Intelligence and more) are insane, add executioner and adrenaline rush and even if you aren't playing an elf you can one turn almost every to every encounter in the game (especially if you decide to use apotheosis and skin graft scrolls or Tea). Summoner is also amazing and does benefit from Necromancer as well, Necro Summoners are fun. Necromancer also gets a revive and when paired with other abilities they can 1. Shackle an enemy to them so the enemy takes damage 2. Revive an ally with Last Rites while using to the edge to be immune to death, potentially killing the target at no cost 3. Use Death Wish for what is basically a 100% damage buff 4. Attack another enemy for massive damage and fully heal off of it (and with living armor also regen armor). Mix this with something like Blood Storm and you just ended the encounter while getting what is basically a free revive. Stupid OP even if using exclusively their own kit, but dewit, dip into NecroSummoner or Poly Necromancer
Idk if you saw RUclipsr sin tee, he modded the game to be harder than honor mode and necromancer build still OP af lol. Though pretty much everything is OP in Divinity Original Sin 2 when the build is complete. Think the weakest build I know of is aero/hydro mage, but it's OP in the sense that it CC's for days between freezing things solid and paralyzing everything. Just can't hydro the first dragon, after that I don't think anything healed from hydro damage lol. Archery and rogue are 2 other builds I enjoyed and they get ridiculous quick to, but require more strategy than necromancy on honor mode I believe
So besides deathwish + resist death combo.... what are these combos and why are they doing so much dmg? Is this rain of blood intot he necro source spell that requires blood / clouds (I forget the name right now) And how many stats do you need in int for this to work?
Divinity is cool, but damn I have no idea how to play it or what's happening. Can anyone give me an explanation for how this build works and how it is murderizing everything?
There are two skills in necromancy line, one makes that for 2 turns you survive no matter what with 1 hp, other gives you damage buff proportional to hp you lost. As you can see, these two make insane combo.
first you set blood on the surface enemies are standing then you use grasp of the starved (damages everyone in blood in chosen area) it will probably kill everyone in the blood if not you can clean the others with corpse explosion the skill is pretty self explanatory. i cant really speak english hope you can understand it.
I love how the second video on OP is Polymorph, cause I always Lone Wolf Combo Necromancy, Polymorph, Warfare, and add some scoundrel for adrenaline rush and hydro for blood storm Being able to win every encounter in a single turn by mixing apotheosis blood storm, grasp of the starved, skin graft, etc, just makes me laugh any day. Executioner and Green Tea will only break the game further, especially if Intelligence and Wits gets capped with Savage Sortilege, not like it was OP as fuck without crits, but stack some crits and now everything dies. Even without that the necro kit is just too strong, healing by doing damage? A revive spell that does too much damage that you can ignore thanks to death resist, use to kill a target and revive a teammate by chaining them to you, and then turn your missing health into a damage buff to unleash an attack that will fully heal you and maybe also kill someone and maybe also restore a bunch of armor? Necromancer breaks everything. Really good mixing with polymorph too. That and also has some spells that are super good for summoners (Death Wish and to the Edge mix way too well with Supercharger cause death resist extends the summon timer by barring death). I really don't know what can overcome having even just a single point or two in necromancy, cause the only rivals are super well off by just mixing with necromancy.
After about 170ish hrs I just finished my first run of the game (mostly a what happens happen run with no much preparation/strategy) so I was thinking how should I play my next one...well now I know!
dont understand, why do you such high damage, are you on a much higher level or is just necromancy that strong? and you just have 1 other party member it seems, why and how are you playing it with just 1 character
I always wanted to make this build, but it is very weak in early game (Fort Joy) compared to my archer and warrior. It always ended i ditch it and went to another build. Can anyone tell me what should i do on level 1-9?
A lot of needs with Nercomancer. You need high enough health and too be faster then everyone with enough damage to destroy the enemy in one shot. This is weaker then my assassin which one hit most of the bosses. Using mass corpse explosion is nice. It's only good if bodies are in the area.
Divinity 2 is a game where you either kick major ass or have your ass kicked really. Doing a Lone Wolf Necromancer, Polymorph, Warfare build with some points in hydrosophist for blood storm later and a point in scoundrel for adrenaline rush is the easiest way to always kick ass. But even without going for a super build like that (I did not even know that Necromancer and polymorph were meta at first; I just gravitated towards them cause extra stat points and hp recovery on hit, but they are super busted) Necromancer makes the game easier. Just make sure to have either Lone Wolf, Executioner, or both so you can pull off clutch murder turns where you sweep the field.
well everything can be op if you put the right things together but necromancy is quite a stony way I think my most quality of life op build is elf archer
Playing an honor run.
Combat starts.
Necromancer: “Oh no!”
*kills all opponents in 1 turn*
Necromancer: “Anyway.”

Just play it on normal first time to learn what spells there even are, how crafting works and the mechanics of certain bosses and outcomes of quests.
Then you can go tactician where they up the defenses, add some spells and trash mobs to the fights.
