Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity Original Sin - Beta BETA 1.059 Skills/abilities change thread

This is technically not a skills/abilities change.

I have had to reload one of my earlier saved games because my Knight decided to put his first Attribute point into Speed instead of Strength. This meant that he could not equip any two-handed swords he found. The knight started out with 8 STR. Essentially, that means that anyone who wants to use 2H swords is forced into starting with a base of 8 STR, and putting their first attribute point into STR - they don't really have the choice of doing anything else.

I really did have to do that because the starting Source Hunters sword is not cutting it (NPI) against the level 3 enemies.

So I'm reloading back a couple earlier encounters to when I still had a 1H sword in my inventory, because speccing into 1H is easier than reloading a much older saved game or restarting. (and makes the knight's weapon selection less overlapping with Madora's).

I also wouldn't mind being able to switch starting weapons in character creation.
