Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - Suggestions and Feedback Ranged and Huntsman bonus damage question

Hi Larian,

1 point in Ranged gives 5% increase damage and 1% crit.

1 point Huntsman gives 5% increase elevation damage.

So my question is, what is the motivation to put points into Huntsman when Ranged is obviously a better option? Unlike Warfare and Aerothurge, it gives a 10% damage to armor and 10% to magic armor respectively. That's something to consider!

The only motivation I guess is to use spells? But if my character is a ranger which heavily invested in Finesse, I don't see the encouragement to spend more than 1 point in Ranged unless there's a Ranged cap.

Perhaps, consider rebalancing the Huntsman bonus?
