Larian Studios Forums Divinity 2 - Ego Draconis (English) Divinity 2 - Ego Draconis Scorpion set

I am completely stuck in Kali's floating fortress looking for the 10 piece scorpion set. I have found leggings, ring, gauntlets, cuirass but the other six items are nowhere to be found. I've looked for tips but none of them point to the actual location of the remaining items. For instance some guides say that the necklace in on the "northernmost island." No it isn't unless it's in the chest I can't open because I have no lockpicking skills. (This is despite my skills window, the one with all the skills icons says I have 127 skills points which cannot be applied.) I have even downloaded maps with the locations of the scorpion set but after visiting every single island, can't find the things. I've been working on this issue for four days now and it's getting discouraging--so much so I'm about ready to give it up and go on to another game. Can anyone help?

when looking for a set pieces start from the bottom islands and go around than go one lvl up. Final 4 pieces is on the main island, also start from the bottom and go around

No good. The map doesn't help at all. I've been to all the spots on the map. There are chests I can't open because I have no lockpick skill points and have no idea how to get them this late in the game. I guess if you don't get them in Farglow, you are screwed. Are the Scorpion Sets IN THE LOCKED trunks? If so I give up.

You should have a book in your inventory called "History of demons" or "Demon History" or something like that... Adds 5 points to skills... and yes, the scorp items are in the locked chests.

GL to you and yours.

With the PC version there are left and right arrow icons below each skill icon to add skill points, after which you need to hit the 'apply' button in the bottom right corner of the skill window.
For the Xbox version, in the skill list hit A to show the skill description, and A again to apply skill points; when you hit B to exit you are given the choice to apply the points (A) or cancel (B).

How did you get 127 skill points? Unlearning all my skills near the end of the game I ended up with 76 free skill points...

I think he were talking about stat points (as you mentioned there is no way to get that many skill points).

Also if your already allocated all the skill points, just go back to Battle tower training circle and buy "unlearn all skills" from skill trainer

If I unlearn all my skill points, can I then get lock picking skills? Or better yet, is there a way to get that skill this late in the game?
Thanks for your help.

OK, so I unlearned skill points and all it did was double the price each time I did so and all the skill points remained. I don't get it. I'll look for the demon book.

ermm when you buy unlearn all the skill points are reseted so you can assign em to skills, how to do that read what Raze wrote.

As I said I unlearned and I did not have an option to add lockpicking to my skills. Raze was talking about something else entirely. I am talking about the skills screen with all the skill ICONS, none of which can be applied. I have written to Larian but they haven't written back with any solutions. I mentioned that lockpicking can apparently NEVER be learned after one leaves Farglow and it would be nice if some defeated enemies had physical lockpicks. This is part of the game that suffers from lack of planning, in my opinion.

The Lockpick skill can be learned at any point in the game (it can not be upgraded at the trainer, though, since the maximum level is 5, which is available from the start). No physical lockpicks are required, just the skill.

Can you not add skill points to a skill (using the arrows under the skill icon), or can you add them but not apply them (using the button in the bottom right corner of the skill window)?

ok, Just to be clear and also so we would be sure you really invested skill points into lockpick

these steps show skills assigning on PC game version
Step1, if you have available skill points you will see this arrow (im pointing with mouse), press it to increase skill level


Step2, after you finished assigning points two buttons appear in lower right corner hit "Accept" to save changes


Step3, the confirmation window will pop up, hit "Yes" and your done

Good and clearly done!

And interesting too .... I was always thinking the xbox-version is more complicated to do such things as accept skillpoints, but now I see this, the xbox-version is for me more simple and great in USE!!
Now I see this .. I'm happy I planned playing on xbox ...
(to be honest: I specially buy my Xbox for playing Divinity II )

You were right. It was easy to apply the skillpoints once I found the little arrow things next to the skill, something I missed from the git-go. Thanks for your help. Now, just one more thing: Where in the world is the Scorpion Helmet? I know it is in the, "mid-level northern platform" but after three days and revisiting every trunk and box there, I can't find it. I need some landmarks. Any more help?

Thanks again for your help. I missed the little arrows next to the skill. You were of great help. Now, can you give me a couple of landmarks for the Scorpion Helmet? I've been all over the northern platforms and revisited every box, barrel, and chest but can't find it.

well, if you use a trainer it is possible to get more skillpoints
Not sure if that's illegal though.
