The base Battlemage during character creation (or if you recruit a companion) is 1 Strength, 1 Intelligence, 1 Constitution, 1 Warfare, 1 Aerotheurge, 1 Persuasion; Battering Ram, Shocking Touch, Blinding Radiance skills and the Comeback Kid Talent. While Air damage is serviceable, you can cause much more destruction by beginning with Fire damage and adding in other elements la

Spread Your Wings (2 Polymorph): Allows you to fly nearby points. Keep in mind that if you try to fly over death fog (and aren’t Undead) you might still wind up dying. Good for movement, but cannot use Spider Legs at the same t

Circle of Suns (Ring): decide to kill Sadha inside the Arx Lizard Consulate (this may cause Red Prince to go hostile if he isn’t a main character). Gives a nice boost to Pyrokinetic and the Flaming Skin skill for f

As a Battlemage, you will be dealing with some mix between Physical and Magic damage. It would be better to just prioritize one: either heavily invest in two-handed Strength weapons and Warfare or Intelligence staves and Pyrokinetic . Either way, being on the frontlines means that it would be good to wear Strength-based armor. Consider starting with 1 Strength (mostly for future gear requirements), 2 Intelligence, 1 Warfare, 1 Pyrokinetic, and Civil Ability matching your character (Barter for Ifan, Loremaster for Sebille, et

Kvyn’s Hands (Gloves): possible loot inside the Doctor’s basement. However, getting these may lockout Lord Ruaney unique items. Has a Finesse and Thievery penalty, but a Strength boost and gives innate Tentacle L

Spider Legs (2 Polymorph): Fire off webs that prevent enemies from moving and grants you Haste if you step in them. The webs can also spread fire already laid out by yourself or an ally. A great control ability, but cannot be used at the same time as Spread Your Wi

Epidemic of Fire (3 Pyrokinetic): a flame jets between up to five targets for massive Fire damage, and creates Cursed Fire surfaces. Mainly reserve this when Master of Sparks in on cooldown, or you need a ranged att

Any of these lines would make a great secondary skill line option depending on the playstyle that is wanted. Depending on the race of the character may also change the decision. If the Conjurer wants a third skill line, choosing another element may be the best option. Other Conjurer combinations could be Hydrosophist and Necromancy for a support role, Geomancy and Warfare for a tanking role, Pyrokinetic and Huntsman for a ranged role, or Aerotheurge and Scoundrel for a stealthy r

These extra potent talents are useful for making your party more dynamic. It is great when encountering tough battles or when exploring the world of Rivellon with friends. If you are debating on hunting for achievements or trophies, it is still good to review these talents and decide which is more import

Divine Talents are a completely optional feature. Utilizing them will disable achievements/trophies, so consider these new talents only if you don’t care about earning them, or are on a second playthrough of the game. To enable the talents, when in game open the main menu and select Gift Bag Features. In the next screen, toggle on Divine Talents and then apply. The game will reload (so it is a good idea to save beforehand). If the Divine Talents option is locked, it means that it was previously enabled and can no longer be disabled. If you are in a multiplayer SLG Game Maps, make sure everything loaded and synced correctly for all play

Xhaxh’s Staff of Parasitic Decay (Poison Staff): a possible reward for slaying Xhaxh during the quest A Taste of Freedom , started inside Mordus’ basement in Reaper’s Coast. Boosts Memory and Necroman

For Talents, go for The Pawn to increase movement, Savage Sortilege for criticals (most of Polymorph are actually spells), and Living Armor for extra protection versus Magic damage. If you are using Gift Bags, consider Indomitable and Gladiator for more defenses. Bigger and Better and All Skilled Up are great for when you have spare Talent poi

While already pickpocketing someone, become invisible to other characters’ vision cones. This is a great way to making stealing much easier, especially in crowded towns or enemy filled dungeons. Anyone can be the team’s thief by investing in the Thievery Civil Ability, but Undead and Dwarves have small advantages: the former can unlock doors with their fingers, and the latter gains a bonus to Sneaking to initiate crimes in the first place. Stealing from others is the best means of making money or nabbing key items instead of completing a qu

Whenever someone uses a Source Skill, you have a 1/5 chance of gaining Source; it requires being level 6. This talent is best used once your party can hold three Source Points, likely near the end of Reaper’s Coast around level 15 or 16. The party should have some kind of synergy when using Source Skills of the same damage type, like Arrow Storm and Grasp of the Starved, which are both physical attacks. Greedy Soul is less useful for reactionary and healing Source powers you might not use as of
