Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity - Original Sin - General Why have make pointless 4 abilities????

You know, adding tenebrium to regular weapon always changes damage bonus skill to tenebrium.
That is nothing new.

As for the weapon skills, they are not pointless.

They are very useful in 1st half of the game, which is actually harder then end game.

If you just save and don't spend any skills points in weapons, you are essentially gimping yourself for the toughest part of the game, for very minor boost in end game. Really, anyone can spend 3 skills points (+2 bonus) and equip +1 boost item to get 30% bonus in favorite weapon skill, which is a lot.


Also, if your character is planning to use only single type of weapon and not mix and match, why not keep getting specialized in regular weapons and forget about tenebrium?

If you like tebebrium high damage, just boost weapon with tenebrium (by character that has some tenebrium skill), and then boost it again with elemental essence to convert that tenebrium damage to elemental (and have use normal weapon skill), while keeping higher damage rating.
