Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - General Witchcraft and skill tree

Hello everyone,

I just wanted to ask. Has witchcraft been replaced by necromancy?

Also could someone explain how skill trees work. I have seen news about a shape shift skill tree but it is nowhere in my combat abilities. Is it not included in early access?

I hope not. I absolutely loved Witchcraft in the first one. A melee summoner was the most fun I had in that game.

Well I almost want to say that yes Witchcraft has been renamed Necromancy, but I don't think there are many overlapping spells between the two. I do think that Necromancy is essentially going to be the replacement for Witchcraft though.

Shapeshifting and Summoning skill trees are not in yet.

Yeah, I'd say the niche occupied by Witchcraft previously will be split between the summon-focused tree and necromancy.

I was going to ask summoning isnt in the game yet is it.

I found a summon fire elemental book so far... too bad it's bugged and the elemental actually doesn't attack. It just uses it's AP to stand there lol.

Witchcraft has currently been replaced by Necromancy.

Mosquitto Swarm is just a long ranged Vampiric touch. (well except less damage and healing, but causes bleed if the enemy lacks armor)
