In this situation, a character would be able to reach skill level 5 one character level earlier.Ĭhoosing a particular class affects the starting gear and items a player has. This is to prevent a character from putting all of their Ability points in one skill, reaching skill level 3 by character level 2. Each character gets 5 more Attribute points, 5 Ability points, and 2 Talent points to spend as they see fit.Īll Ability points must be spent upon leaving the character creation screen, or else they are forfeited. All characters start with 5 points in each Attribute. Many aspects of the classes can be altered, both gameplay choices ( Attributes, Abilities, etc) and cosmetic choices (gender, skin color, hair style, portrait icon, etc).
When starting the game, the player will create two individual characters, one male and one female, who will be the main heroes of the game. Classes are templates for players in Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition.
