Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - Suggestions and Feedback Bloated Corpse Explosion Scaling/ Wrong Tooltip

I'm playing a Int caster with necro/hydro in a coop party atm.

So the description states it scales with intelligence and since it's physical damage it should also scale with warfare. But it doesn't scale with either of those two.

The explosion damage only scales with the summoning skill. So maybe change the skill description or make it scale with warfare and intelligence like corpse explosion.

What description do you mean, exactly? The description of this skill doesn't say anything about scaling.

But either way, all summons (from all schools) benefit only from Summoning ranks and your character level. Your INT and other skills have no effect on them; their damage output is determined by their own skill ranks and stats - you can examine them to check. Your skills (i.e. Warfare) only affects damage that your character deals directly, not damage dealt by summons.

The active skill of the summon "Vile Burst" says the damage is based on your level and receives bonus from intelligence.

Yeah the skill description is meant to be read from the perspective of the character who performs that skill. So "your" means "the summon's", rather than your party member's. So you can increase their damage output by buffing their stats, with Peace of Mind, for example.

Ah ok that makes sense. ty
