Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity Original Sin - Help/Tips/Tricks Do Weapon points affect only direct damage?

Hi all,

When you put points into Weapons (Bow, Crossbow, Single-handed, Two-handed), does it affect only the direct damage that weapon does or all damage (magic, etc)?

Something I don't understand: when I placed a point into "Two-handed" for my Wizard I noticed that the damage for "Staff of Magus" went up, but not for any of the other 3 skills (Flare, Midnight Oil, Magical Poison Dart) I have at the moment.

Thank you for any help.
