Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - General Is there a point in leveling "ranged"

I'm confused as to if there is any point in putting something into this skill. Since enraged exists as a spell, the crit chance is pretty meaningless since your ranger is usually going to crit.

Per skill point:

ranged: adds 5% damage to all ranged attacks
warfare: adds 5% damage to all physical
huntsman: adds 5% high ground damage
scoundrel: adds 5% crit damage

What exactly is the point in adding to the "ranged" weapon skill when you get 5% damage per point in any of warfare, huntsman and scoundrel? Since when you put points in those skills, you can also use a bunch of other abilities. What would be a reason to ever level it over one of those classes??

I suppose the 5% to all ranged attacks also would effect magic damage, but realistically your ranger is going to do almost entirely physical damage...
