Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - Help/Tips/Tricks Undead elemental weakness

Hi guys,

TL;DR: What environmental effects are most effective against the Undead (outside of Resto of course).

In one of my play-through's, I'm playing an Undead duo with strong emphasis on Geo/Sum; poison magic and incarnate/totem, with dual poison wands on both.

Against the living, this combo is deadly; but against the Undead, it's a bit of a different story.

So I'd like to have two different paths of attack; one for the living (poison) and one for the Undead.

Regular heals hurt an Undead, obviously, but what environmental effects are most effective against them?

I want to say fire.. but I think that's influence by Hollywood. :P

Thanks

None in particular, it depends on the enemy.
Just examine them and find out.

Other than heals, Fire in general works best, most undead are weak to it but not all. Also burning will remove any poison effects they have on. That being said, fire also hurts you the most too so it's a double edged sword.

From lore standpoint, I would say that chilled->frozen should be best, as that makes bones brittle and more vulnerable - but it doesnt work that way sadly But to be honest, skeletons dont have any special weakness overall, there are even few elemental skellies immune to elements.
