Divinity: Original Sin 2 Rogue CreationĪs with every class choice in Original Sin 2, there is no one correct option for the character race, but some are slightly more beneficial than others. This guide aims to help players create their perfect backstabber, giving the tips and tricks for playing a rogue in Divinity: Original Sin 2. This is the art of the rogue, the stealthy, sharp striker class that excels at both damage dealing and unmatched mobility. Some, though, prefer to mix it up, to strike from the shadows, and leap back into the dark as soon as the damage is done, keeping the enemy ever on their toes. For some, the best place is on the front lines as an armor-clad knight, for others the back lines as a spell-slinging sorcerer.

It is especially impressive that the console port holds up against the PC original, maintaining the complexity with a suitably streamlined control structure.

It is not just that it is a turn-based fantasy game - those are by no means uncommon on the latest console generation Original Sin II fully captures some of the more niche and enjoyable traits from table-top RPG experiences. Though the situation may change with the release of Baldur's Gate 3, the closest one can get to having a full-fledged Dungeons & Dragons session on console is by playing Divinity: Original Sin 2.
