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

Right now i have started two games with my friends in coop.

The first party was:

Cleric
Enchanter
Knight
Ranger

The second party was:

Cleric
Rouge (Undead)
Conjurer (Undead)
Enchanter

The first party is right now hell to play. The knight and the Cleric are very, ,very slow. Enemy is running away most of the time. Ranger is getting focused down very often. Mages feel somewhat weak in the first act. I like the enchanter, but after he has used all his spells, he stands in the corner and stares holes into cheese.


The second party is an easy walkthrough. The rouge just destroys everything and everybody. I think this class is one of the strongest in the game. Especially as undead, because the enemy never uses poison against you and your party.

Some people say the Conjurer is weak. I do not think so. 5th party member and the conjurse incarnate does TONS of damage. + We are playing him as undead, so posion the area and there you go.

I have build my cleric on Necromancer, Warrior and hydro. Most of the time i am not even healing with him, but using the healing and necro spells as wepons. With some Warrios skills throwing CC skills at the enemies. And i have got the flesh summoning for the Cleric as Necromancer. So we have 6 party members all the time.

The enchanter got some geomancer spells to heal our undead or weaken the enemy.

Normally the first Team build should be the stronger one, but it is not.

The second build concentrates on the rouge most of the time as the main damage dealer. It works better than a knight and a cleric. They are both to slow.
