Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - General On balance

I agree with most of the problems but not with the suggested fixes.

Resistances - I would advocate for adding physical resistance and very high dodge to a number of mobs instead. They should be pretty common (as common as elemental ones). You should not be able to fireball or chop everything to death maxing 1 skill and stat. If you don't have the tools, your fault. Add physically immune enemies as well (on tactician at least).

Attacks of opportunity - tbh never felt like this way a problem and mages also have some positioning tools like teleport or netherswap (or you can spare a couple of points and learn anything you want from physical schools)

Nerf physical - very much agree, the damage stacking on physical is obscene and while it's ok earlygame, scaling needs to be adjusted

Meld physical and magical armor into 1 - tbh I'm not a fan of how current system ended up in general, but merging armor types is a very radical change, so highly unlikely, and I doubt it would solve actual problems. I'm ok with having mobs that are better to fight with elemental and mobs that are better to fight with physical, as long as mobs also have physical resists, beacuse currently due to resists physical is often massively better even against mobs with high phys armor anyway.
