Can someone give hints for a good builds? I'm gonna finally play this through.
Some things I picked up. From memory..
Vitality is important for all characters - so pump EVERYONE with HP
Unstoppable Assault in the Warfare tree is vital later on when many enemies are hard to hit with normal hits - it takes up mana though.
Oh - buy all the potions of mana and health (scrolls) every time from every vendor you can - they replenish every day. The low mana pots even help your fighter chars - see above. It won't impact your inventory.
Use the feature to annotate the world and city map - name people you meet and also name the different regions in the world map as you explore. This is because your quest log says go and find fat loser in dangerous forest - then you can' t remember where that was even thought you probably mapped it. We all been crying out for the feature to annotate maps - use it!
Take advantage of companions - you can have two. But note at a few points in the game you will have to ditch one. Note where you got them from. One gives you 10% more XP or something, one spots secret doors, one acts like a vendor blah blah
For some reason my Barbarian totally out damage my defender for the entire game. Go Barb with 2 handed mace - rocks!
Destiny - increases critical hit - awesome for fighters and rangers - you will need it
if you have one mage - it must be defensive first - otherwise you will get slaughtered. It should heal and shield. Afterwards you can skill up Magical Focus - not a spell tree but increases critical damage by wielding two orbs. If you have two mages maybe try one defensive and one offensive.
There is a horse companion that can double your inventory - it saves time I suppose. With adventuring out and about I had to keep on going back to town and selling and identifying.
Don't sell the relics unless you know they won't be helpful. Resistances are important
Good luck!
