Divinity Original Sin 2 Definitive Edition - Guide To Lone Wolf

Getting secondary stats to 14 can be useful to give additional armour options. An archer with enough str to wear high physical armour pieces, or mage with the same, is handy.

Lonewolf looks like a more difficult way to play but in actuality makes the game ALOT easier compared to the standard.

[@TheDemonThorn]

I tried Lonewolf for the first time today and it was way easier. new to the game, I went with the full party and everything felt difficult, even till level 15. when I got Lonewolf on a new play through it was all a breeze. it's so much easier to have 2 strong characters and 4 average ones that do ok damage and get cc'd easily.

[@marky1974]

Is it a better way for a newbie to play?..i found the party management a bit of a chore..

[@jonathanheld8152]

@@marky1974 mark, I hope I’m not too late. It’s both easier and harder. It’s easier to manage one hero, who can do more, than four who depend on their synergies. In my experience, lone Wolf (on harder difficulties) requires you to play “tighter,” or there’s less wiggle room for errors, near act 3, and especially 4, when enemies pack a punch, It does, however, make act 1 and 2 very trivial and can be a fun adventure. :) highly recommend playing both ways to find what’s your style

[@michalgabriel9647]

@@marky1974 I would recommend to not play as a lone wolf for teh first time as you would get used to all the stats and APs. It is not that punishing so you would not learn so much about the game.

[@SciFiSpeedster]

I ran a variant of your stormchaser build in DE where I built into Hydro as a secondary tree, but also maxed out Scoundrel, dipped into warfare and huntsman to take their respective teleport abilities, and took The Pawn. Insane mobility, Which gave me a LOT of unique options in fights that either had an unusually large arena, or where repositioning quickly was key.

[@astronemir]

Do you have any more info on this?

[@SciFiSpeedster]

After I maxed out Areothurge in my Lone wolf run, I split my points between Hydrosophist and Scoundrel. Scoundrel's movement + crit bonus pairs well with Savage Sortilige for amazing damage and The Pawn for great movement, plus Adrenaline and Cloak and Dagger are good in virtually any situation. Hydrosophist just gave me another damage type for enemies with air resistance and some decent magic armor regeneration. Whether it was "efficient" or not, I also dipped one point (plus another from Lone Wolf) into warfare and huntsman so I could take Phoenix dive and tactical retreat. With those two skills, plus cloak and dagger, plus nether swap, plus the movement from The Pawn and points in Scoundrel, meant in any fight I could position myself pretty much anywhere I wanted for my aoe-sround-self skills for at most 1-2 AP. Both major points in act 3 where you need to reach a goal as quickly as possible (the imp Pocket dimension and the race to well of ascension) I was able to cross the entire map to reach the goal in a single turn. Difficulty was classic, other player played a Fire/Earth focused mage. I didn't host, so I don't have access to exact numbers on the build. Like I said, I'm not sure whether movement-focused aerothurge build would be as efficient in higher difficulties, but it got me by, and was loads of fun to play.

[@hideshisface1886]

Couple of things (and yeah, I know I'm ludicrously late): Certain talents that are easy to overlook become potentially very effective with Lone Wolf: Five Star Dinner - double effect of potions and food items. May sound gimmicky, but with Lone Wolf health bonus... Percentage based heal from food becomes all the more valuable. For the same reason - increased health, that is - a gimmicky build based on vitality, comeback kid, morning person and unstable may be, in some ways hilarious. Also - polymorph was completely overlooked here... I understand it is gimmicky at times but still - this is the only exception from general doubling rule of Lone Wolf... You do not get double points from Lone Wolf, but bonus attribute points DO get doubled still. On top of that - Polymorph may be a good complementary ability for some builds - allowing you so squeeze some additional attribute points if you already maxed primary abilities. On top of that - the utility it provides is also great - skingraft + apotheosis combo can be gamebreaking with some abilities.

[@DrZaius3141]

I feel that when it comes to most LW builds, the attribute points are far less valuable than the ability points. So Poly isn't too great, eventhough I have a thing for the Medusa stuff.

[@crismonBlue]

@@DrZaius3141 absolutly nothing beats apotheosis with a ridicolous amounts of memory slots at hand , for utmost stupidity -> necro/hydro + aero as main skill . It just deletes the everything in sight.

[@arenu0]

I‘ll do you one over with the late reply, but I really think they should have undone the LW Polymorph exception when they solved the glitches with refunding attributes.

[@eechee2979]

Loopholing the heck out of LW with a technical 4-Man Wrecking Crew Both characters: 10 Summoning 10 Warfare 10 Scoundrel 10 Two-Handed 2 Polymorph 40 Strength 40 Intelligence 40 Wits Lone Wolf (Obvious) All Skilled Up Bigger And Better Executioner Leech (Flexible) (Two humans, due to Encourage, make this significantly stronger than any other race combination. Except maybe Fane, due to Time Warp). First round is spent summoning and buffing Incarnates (maybe a second round, if you think you're going to need all those buffs, though I only really needed Power and Shadow). Polymorph 2 offers Heart of Steel for Phys. Armor heal, Chameleon Cloak is your "Oh, shit!" button, and Bull Horns grants you Bull Rush which is almost identical to Battering Ram. Yes, you can use both (even chain them) and they're great for closing distance. I often chained them between conveniently lined-up enemies, stripping armor with Bull Rush and knocking down with Battering Ram. You can also bring totems if you want but I felt they were a waste of Action Points compared to anything else I could spend them on. They're okay if your heart's just not in the fight. The only thing I ever had trouble with was cooldowns. I could have sacrificed a point in something to put one more in Polymorph for Skin Graft, which cools down all of that character's skills for one round. Looking back now, taking a point out of Scoundrel wouldn't have significantly hurt the curb stomp I was giving this game. In summary: Lone Wolf and Summoning turn any difficulty into EZ mode.

[@eechee2979]

Well, that "was" spaced for easier reading. Why do you do this, KZbin?

[@TimeAdept]

I realize this is an older video so you might not see this but my only issue with these guides is you reference stuff from your other videos but then offer no further explanation, not even a little. So my only option is to find your video on the thing you just referenced but this happens every video so i end up with seven videos open trying to make heads or tails of what your talking about. I realize you have class build videos and i can go watch those if i want further details however you made THIS video to explain how to make those builds Lone Wolf, which is what im interested in. But you gloss over the actual builds as if ive already watched the original video. This again leads to me havig to watch multiple build guides to even understand this one, which is time and effort i could spend watching a more dedicated video. I really like you delivery and how you explain the various things i CAN understand and would love to get more out of these videos without having to go through your catalog of videos to fully understand what your talking about. I would suggest that you make a dedicated video for each of your builds and go over the small changes needed to make them a viable Lone Wolf build. I realize, again, that this takes up a lot of time but if you, as a creator, are going to make an explanation video then it needs to be made as if the watchers are fresh off the boat and new to Fort Joy. This means some of the more experienced watchers might get a little annoyed by the rehashing of already known topics but it would ease newer players into the game much easier than having to watch seven videos at once to understand your guides. I am new to this game and have used many of your videos to help ease me into this hard ass game but even after watching many, MANY of your videos i am lost most of the time due to this glossing over already made video topics. You make these guides, im guessing, to help new players but they dont do that if we can't understand them. Jesus this is a long ass comment. But i had to say it. Please, PLEASE fix this issue with these guides.

Max Warfare, max Necro, 5+ in Polymorph, a few in scoundrel and two handed. Pump strength, int, and wits grabbing memory when needed. Win.

[@thexenobunny]

I went 2 hand weapon necro knight Fane and undead geomancer/summoner archer main. It is OP and nothing has phased them, not even those magical moments where the AI has had enough of my entirely covering the map in poison before initiative begins and decides to throw a fire ball. Because the undead trait heals from poison and because rain/corruption does not trigger initiative the game is easily rigged.

[@heidisorensen5542]

Just what I was looking for. Awesome work, thanks!

[@joshua4185]

Not sure if you've tested but, Fire arrow consumable on a lone wolf archer potentially does more damage than a regular shot if Pyrokinetic is maxed out. Similar to your poison archer build, you could replicate into flames and also max Pyrokinetic. Considering a Fire Arrow consumable is scaled based off of your damage, wouldn't in theory the damage be increased *also* by warfare etc? Food for thought.

[@darkpaw1522]

I wish they would allow memory to go beyond 40 for magic builds. By level 14, you literally have 10/10 in 2 magic skills, no matter how you hybrid you either will end up dipping into Necromancer for the free healing or Poly for more attributes, which themselves already cap at 40 anyway.

[@StarfuryB5]

I was going to say that. I live the vids, but I cringe every time he mispronounces it.

[@Mafumoomish]

These videos are great as they help me undertand the mechanics of the game. So thank you to the creator. I will never be a min/max player and I am enjoying a split damage cc machine LW playing with a friend who is a tank physical. On tactician it's a blast. I have to ask though. How can people call dumping everything into one stat and one skill a "build"? Everyone is like, check out my "Necroganker" of doom. Full int, necro and warfare. Then the next video is check out my "necromanflanker". Full int, warfare and necro. And so on. Everyone has the same "build" but calls it something different. Min/max =boring to me (my opinion) Thoughts?

[@mikfhan]

Making unique builds work decently is the true mark of min/max finesse in my book :P simply following the same meta build recipe gets old fast - experiment! :D Be the next player that discovers a strange synergy or bug in the game, and BECOME the next meta build :)

[@Schwenne1994]

Kinda glad i figured most out myselfe, but it never occoured to me to use scoundrel on my air/geo/hydro mage for lonewolf (i use geo mainly to get more armour and because a friend of mine plays a bowsman, so earthquake can be quite the heavy cc). but since i still have points to use getting into scoundrel should yield devestating results

[@Jerry1337]

Soooo, what about polymorph? For pretty much any class it has the potential to pretty much double your dmg come level 16 with Apo/Skin Graft. Skin Graft and lower level Poly skills are also very useful early on. + The extra attributes etc... I think you should incorporate Poly way more into your builds.

[@mp7311]

It's boring. You can utilize polymorph/skin graft into every single build and it's polarizing. This does not make for any sort of diversity or fun exploration of builds.

[@Fextralife]

Since you will max out your Primary Attribute and Wits and have points left over, Polymorph will not increase your damage (except early on in the game). It's skills are very useful, of course, but I am not focusing on Skills in this Guide, but rather what to do with Attributes and Ability Points to maximize your damage. Adding Polymorph Skills is part of many of my Builds, but this is a more general Guide.

[@TheN0m1s]

hey i'm currently watching all your videos and reading all your guides and they are awesome ty for that!(esp the newer ones :) ) Im currently starting over with a juggernaut build and in the guide you emphasise on reactive armor A LOT and with that on a build with a shield however in this video you say you should focus on two handed with the juggernaut- so is the build on your homepage not updated? is reactive armor not as good anymore?

[@JBrandonMercer123]

Was wondering the same thing. Running a juggernaut with a shield myself right now. Has great CC, but the damage is crap compared to my previous Eternal Warrior with a 2 hander.

I feel that split damage type builds are not as effective as single damage type, even on lone wolf. Thoughts?

[@abefinance109]

Necro 2h undead warrior best lone wolf for me

[@Queesh10000]

Imo most efficient build for Lone Wolf is just boring pure damage archer. You can max out Huntsman, Ranged, Warfare and dump rest of points into Scoundrel for crit damage. Maxing finesse is easy, then wits for crit chance, and bam - you have a murder machine that deals more damage from basic attacks than other characters deal from high damage skills (even memory is not necessary since you get a memory slot every two levels). You forgot that you need to almost always dump some points into stats that are not efficient for you, but allow you to equip some elements of armor that are just better than armor that favors your normal stat. You must be really lucky or hunt for specific uniques to get a good stat armor that will not make you waste stat points, both early on as well as late in the game. Also... does anyone really need a guide for Lone Wolf? Game becomes such a face roll with that trait. I'd strongly encourage just having fun when playing Lone Wolf and crafting your own way to play and build you want to use. ^^

[@dodang_9147]

The game is pretty faceroll in 4 players as in it is 2 players. As long your build includes Evasion Aura x4 in 4 player and Cloak+Uncanny Evasion in Lonewolf. It's probably going to win with almost any logical build. Also, because Lonewolf has so many "free stats", you can basically always mix Int+str armor on mages, therefore staff build is best build for mages because it optimizes their damage output, which in turn sometimes makes them better than ranger builds because of aoe moves vs single target damage.

[@somnorila9913]

I played a bit after launch, paused and had to restart when definitive came, paused a again and got in to it recently. I play Lone wolf solo magic archer character with focus on critical chance and i hit my first maxed atribute at lv16 i believe. But you said that should be around lv7. Is it possible to be a bug from the older save, before patches and changes? Should i start another character?

For mages, Lone wolf+Executioner+Elemental Affinity+Savage Sortilege. If you abuse Act 3 Making the pact with the King than disables it, Far Out man and Hothead are good choices.

[@Tobi13131]

Thank you very much for this video ^~^ i have a question: i'm playing with 3 other guys, who cheese most of the fights, and as such, i want them to taste their own medicine and i want to be able to do something for once aswell :'(, so my question is, if i were to take Lone Wolf for an Arena fight, but i already put 30 points into strenght, do i get the 10 extra points back in the fight to spend somewhere else? or do i just get the lone wolf bonusses? Thank you very much for your answer ^~^

[@Nimoot]

I'd probably respec just for that fight... I think you'd be over-capped and waste 10 points.

[@makkam3453]

so if im buying the game should I get definitive edition or standard?

[@markbalat6034]

Definitive edition

[@ShepardCommander]

These guides are a bit miss-informative when it comes to certain aspects. Focusing on either physical or magical damage is not essential, you can mix and match and still outperform pure physical/magical parties when it comes to most encounters. Enemies usually have either more physical or more magical armor, and reducing the one that is lower so you can to CC asap is a decent strategy. The less the enemy hits you the more you can hit him back. each point you spend on anything has diminishing returns. Since damage is gear + stat dependant. I have been playing what I like to call the elemental champions where each party member focuses on 1 school of elemental magic and then 2 other classes and I have yet to use a single res scroll. I distribute points equally between their weapon choice attribute and their classes and positions. My pyro rogue usually can 1 shot most enemies in classic mode. My geo warrior is impossible to strip armor from with heavy reliance on positioning and attacks of opportunity. When I use abilities I focus on stripping magic armor for petrify from medusa's head. My Water Aero Necro strips both phyisical armor and magic armor very fast, and can choose which one she wants to stip. Controls the battlefield beautifully. My Huntsman has summoner and some aero skill. Positions super easily and usually is my main source of CC with a combination of the empowered incarnate and his aero skills on wet ground. Never lost a fight. No reliance on pure builds. Just play what is fun for you, the game isn't that hard except for the first 2 levels. Once you are level 3 with some gear it's a breeze.

[@johnathanera5863]

No you cant. Pure physical is simply superior in every way 95% of the time. You CAN split damage, and its ok. But its not nearly as effective as pure damage builds

[@polygon2745]

Not to be that guy but you’re also playing on classic mode lol

He definitely loves repeating his mis-pronunciation of the word 'archetype'; it's "ark-ee-type", not "arch-type" damnit!

Is it now possible to have one Lone Wolf character and 2 regular?

[@Queesh10000]

No, for the Lone Wolf trait to work you can have at most one companion.

[@sr_gustavo1]

No constitution in tatican mode? really? im going to finish the game again in the tatican lone wolf, im a bit confused now since i used a lot on my first run without lonewolf

[@ygalion]

is it worth playing lone wolf, when there is a lot of benefits from companions

[@TheCowardlyChicken]

Yes, if you are willing to sacrifice civil abilities. While it does add complications late game, I've actually found having two lone wolf characters significantly stronger than four normal ones, short of losing out on things like lockpicking, barter, etc. I will say, I would recommend having an intimate knowledge of what you'll be fighting before playing lone wolf, as it is far easier to completely screw yourself with only two people to work with. Although, you can completely respec with the mirror on the ship, so I guess it's not COMPLETELY screwing yourself over

[@ygalion]

@@TheCowardlyChicken thanks for info. Will considure playing 2 character team next play

@@TheCowardlyChicken I haven't played this game yet, but I'm trying to plan ahead. You can have 2 different lone wolf characters? Is it better to play with a team of 4 my first time through? Thank you.

@@bradencluster4739 I'd play with four for your first play through, just for the companion quests. You can have a party of two, with both characters having the lone wolf trait. Any more than that and the trait doesn't work

Is lone wolf fake in this game like it is in the first one? There you had to have a party member with you at all times and the lone wolf would still work somehow while he was there. Even though the game lied about it saying you'd have to solo for it to function.

[@Fextralife]

Lone Wolf only works with 2 people or less.
