There is also a rock in the vicinity that you can teleport enemies on, and they will also be stuck there. If you have Teleportation and are standing on the top platform, you can teleport the big blobs to where the tents are. Here's a little personal trick I learned on my current playthrough: notice the tents near the beach. If you don't mind some crafting and hunting for ingredients, you could make a bunch of Large Potions of Fire Resistance and give them to everyone. Stock up on scrolls of Armor of Frost and Restoration and distribute them to all party members.ĭome of Protection also works very well since your party will be clumping up together on the top platform for most of the time. Having a dedicated hydro/healer character in the party goes a very long way, since the healing, the magic armor restoration, and the water damage work greatly in this fight.

Trying too hard to make it work probably just makes the whole thing harder for you.Īs for the encounter itself. If you're not getting it to work very well, you might as well change your tactics entirely. Especially when compared against many other skills you have access to, at any given level. The bottom line is, Bless is pretty much useless in any fight that can be considered tough. Again, in the majority of cases, enemies can create cursed surfaces - *snap finger* - just like that. This compounds the underwhelming performance of Bless. You have to Bless it one more time to make it a blessed surface. It turns it into the normal surface first. You probably already know, but blessing a cursed surface doesn't turn it into a blessed surface right away. I'm not saying it doesn't work at all, just that it requires a lot of effort, the right setup, and possibly metaknowledge, and to me it has never been worth it. In this particular encounter to save Gwydian, it's not so easy.

I suppose with careful positioning and manipulation of enemy positions, you can make it work to a decent extent in certain situations. Tbh, in many encounters I never quite figured out where all the cursed surfaces even came from.Īll this means when you do use Bless, your blessed surfaces rarely last for long enough to matter. Sometimes just striking them will create cursed surfaces. In many cases, Voidwokens don't have to do anything to create cursed surfaces, while you have to spend 1AP + 1SP. The problem with Bless is that it is very easy to be undone when you're fighting Voidwoken enemies, or many mid/high level enemies. I'd say this is more a level 13 encounter, than 12.

Plus enemies spam Curse like crazy and they don't seem to need Source to do it.This fight is notorious for a couple of reasons. The AP cost alone balances the ability well enough imo. It still costs 1 of your 4 action points to cast and it doesn't remove cursed surfaces (it just uncurses them), so I never felt like I was cheating or breaking the game.
#DIVINITY ORIGINAL SIN 2 BLESS WORK MOD#
I know not everyone likes playing with mods, but if you want to actually use the Bless skill and have fun, I'd recommend getting a mod for it. I much prefer it as an innate skill like Source Vampirism which I can use whenever I want. I basically only equipped it when I was required to use it to progress. In my first two playthroughs I barely used it since I used the memory slot for other spells. It's fun, doesn't break the game and doesn't cost me any memory or source points I'd rather use on more impactful abilities. I have Bless as a situational option to help combat cursed stuff or a few debuffs, plus I can Bless surfaces for situational benefits (like blessing oil to Fortify my party after they're hit with a fossil strike). I'm on my third playthrough and installed a mod to make Bless cost 0 memory and 0 source points.
