Larian Studios Forums Divinity 2 - Ego Draconis (English) Help/Tips/Tricks The official "ULTIMATE MAGE" guide

In traning area
Where you kill 3 or 4 goblins
In the rock next to tree

Where do you find full nightbringer armor? Is it in specific places or is it randomly dropped?
Any help is appericiated Thanks!

Just Random unfortunately...

You can get a full mage set in Stones Fortress though!

Where does nightbriger armor drop from? Goblins, Skelitons?...or is that random as well?

Oh and btw to Raven.rpg...this guide is really helpfull and its working so far, perfectly too if I might add. I cant wait till im a high level so I can see the true power of this biuld.

Thanks for the awsome guide!

Also another question lol....where do you get armor for a mage? When ever I see a shop they only seem to sell worrior stuff, but then agian im only level 6 lol...

This is why I hate D2
No robes

I find nightbringer armor in Bandit camp
full set to buy

Also i sugest to farm for equipment
You see chest....
save-open-load....rinse and repeat

There is noghtbringer armor in briken valley in tunnel where you get amulet of east and west
but I think they require level 11 or 8

That is good armor for mages at the begining(and that is hard as hell)
heavy nightbringer is available in orobas fords
I buy complete set from merchants
Again
save-check if they got anything for you-if no-load

best armor is archmage armor
Look too good

Also do you have +magic missile items
do not get out of Broken valley without 2 or at least 1

you want ultimate mage
you have one

Wat about you stats and spells?

I guess I will keep an eye out for nightbringer...thanks for the advice.
At the moment....I have no + magic missil items...just started, but I will make sure I find 2 before I leave broken vally. As for my stats and my spells, im folling the exact same build you have...just to get a feel for the game without being killed 100+ times and so far its working great =). I dont have the game on right now so I dont know where exactlly I've invested my points...sorry.

For the +magic missil items, does only weapons and armor have that effect? Or can rings amys etc. have +magic missil in them too? Other than that I have not been able to find any item with that affect and I'm about to leave broken vally...so any help is appriciated...

yea...ignore my last post I finnaly found a +magic missil item...how many should I have found by the end of the game?

I had two at the end of game
and that was overpowered

Good chance to add this
Was playing again and of course I have find something new called more skill books so I have taken fireball

So here is my conclusion
After 6 playtroughts with ultimate mage I have find out that my build is powerful to finish game
I have also understand that at the end I always end up with many unused skill ponts
If you have them
put them to fireball
It won"t hurt to have more firepower

NOTE:Use fireball after battletower
early is uselees and you need your points for better skills

I just got this game yesterday,i will deff try this Raven ty.i have a request from you or anyone else who wants to tho, can you post ultamate ranger stat guide plse that the class i usually always play with in rpg games ty.

I am not really into ranger and I have completed game too many times
but I think I can create ranger guide with help from people here

till we finish guide I sugest you to start with some build and see how game works

Ultimate Mage without Magic Blast? Weird.

Sure, Magic Missiles are fun, but Magic Blast is "You there. Die." attack. One shot, one kill: take out the annoying healer, summoner, boss, etc..

Only one point in Destruction? That is silly. Five points get you 50% damage boost. No need for +skill items, you hit like a truck and kill people dead.

Fireball is... all right... but you're much better off with Fire Wall, because sooner or later someone will get close to you...

ok ty id really appreciate it:),i keep getting to lvl 7-10 and startin over cause i dont like the character haha.but im trying your mage strategy this time and it seems to be working pretty well so far.

Damar@
magic blast is crap
if you like it USE IT

Magic missiles are god like power
I think I mention that it would be great idea to max destruction

hey started on the ultamate mage.
lvl 5,vit2,spirit11,str 2,dex 1,int 10
indomitable will at 10%
1point in missil,1 in fireball,2 in lockpick
where should i go from here?
anything u woulda done diff?

*boggle*

5K+ damage on a single cast is crap?

You got real high standards there, comrade

(Or you just don't know what you're talking about ;)).

I know that my mm can do 10x more dmg for 15 seconds

belive me I know what I am talking
In every game I use mage and I am more than experienced with mage

oh by the way if you like some skill use it
I just sugest


Unknow god@
you gotta create your story
go wherever you want but remember to save

also if you are interested read whole guide with comments
just don"t forget to find thread here about skill books and useful mindreads

Did you get book from first village(traning village)

First time you get a chance take charm
it have a xp penalty but if you search map for every enemy(don"t leave anyone alive and take XP as a rewards exept of there is really good item)

imagine big nasty soldier runnig at you with his big sword.charm him and he will attack friends
they will attack him while you spam them all with magic missiles

beggining is hard(I stil finish on hard without problems) caose of your mana but with good micro and alot of saving you will be fine

wow...im currently experiencing a wierd bug i think...if i overwrite a previous save i end up at the place where that first save was....lik my lvl 3 ranger the last save i had was the place u start at at beginning of game,well i was lvl three overwrited that save and wound up at that plcace...with nowhere to go being that the ship left there lmao....gay,does it with my lvl 5 mage too but i wind up back in a diff spot i saved at before....??
