Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - General Are mages a bit...weak?

I finished my classic play through with a 4 man physical group.

Near the end of Act 2 on my second. Playing on tactical with two lone wolf mages. I've yet to use a single source spell besides bless. This play through has incredibly easy. I'm was taking on lvl 15 enemies at lvl 12.

This is due to multiple things. One that lone wolf seems incredibly broken. Two that I know a lot more about the game and the fights. Three is the I don't need to go find gear every level or two on a mage to keep going, my damage scales with level up alone.

I think I could run through with two lone wolf physical characters probably a little quicker, but I'm not sure it would be easier. Mage AoE and range are huge benefits that help in a lot of fights.
