Where are you, what type of character are you trying to play, and what exactly are you having problems with? Generally if you start running into difficult areas, there is somewhere else you can do first.

Divinity 2 is an open-world open-skill kind of RPG. You don't have to play a certain way. Even if in farglow you choose warrior you can still use a bow or level up the fire ball spell. You can level and use any skill in the skill tree. Though you should still chose a play-style. Don't try to learn every skill as you won't be able to level them all effectively. If you like playing as a warrior use things like whirlwind and fatality but supplement yourself with other skills like exploding arrow and summon demon. The game is also heavily based on the level difference between you and the foe, an enemy 1 or 2 levels above you can give you trouble and what's worse is enemies are usually in a group. Try to fight enemies that are as close to your level as possible. Also try to kite/separate enemies form the main group to make taking a group of enemies down.

What area of the game are you in? and what is your level? also what kind of character do you want to use?

If you are still in Farglow, after you speak to Morgana you can talk to the 3 trainers as often as you wish to switch your starting class (as 30johner said, this only effects your initial weapon, stats and skills; after that you can do whatever you want). You can repeatedly enter the training area to fight summoned goblins, and get a feel for how each style of play works, and which you feel most comfortable with.

There is a skill book hidden in the training area. You can use it to...
learn Lockpick to open a chest hidden behind a bush by one of the buildings.

Mindreading everyone, you will be directed to a key in the training area which will allow you to open the chest by the wizard, which could give you potions, gold, or perhaps some equipment to get started with.
Mindreading will also give you a couple ways to lower prices at the merchant, and the training area may give you enough gold for an upgrade or two.

If you save before running the crosshairs over a chest (or merchant), you can reload to get different stuff in the chest (inventory). This can be helpful near the start of the game (or when you need specific ingredients for a potion/enchantment later), but used too much you would just be wasting time and possibly making the game too easy.

In addition to this forum, there is a walkthrough and a guide (with screenshots) for the game, though after Farglow I would suggest only using them when you get stuck, or skimming through areas you have already done, to make sure you didn't miss anything critical (you are not going to get everything on a first playthrough, anyway).

Where i come from ascesion to a higher rank is a simple assasination those who are Ranked Highest watch their Front their deaths come from thier back and they die naturally because a dagger in the back naturallyu ends their life.

By now it doesn't really matter what you picked in Farglow.

For the white rabbit, walk down stream from the fortune teller on the same side of the river; you will see the rabbit in a cutscene before you hit the rocks with the iron ore deposit. It will lead you north and a bit west, and should keep stopping until you get close.

Your in the Maxos temple at 10-11? How did you get past the large group of lv 11, 12, and 13 black ring, dragon slayers and living statue enemies; not to mention the large groups of skeletons on and around Lovis' tower. Sounds like you went straight from Talana to Lovis' Tower and then to the Maxos Temple.

Kill all the enemies in broken valley and don't forget the bandit camp, if you didn't expose it to Louis then there's some quests with great rewards and high EXP. If you did expose it(which you might as well do after you beat all the quests) you can kill like 2 dozen lv 10 bandits in there.

You didn't really pick a class in farglow, depending on if you talked to the warrior, mage, or ranger trainer you got 1 point in whirlwind, fire ball, or poison arrow. You also got 3 additional points in the related stat.

Make sure you check out the skill/stat point thread to help get extra power for your character.
