Divinity: Original Sin 2 is arguably more of a hardcore, old school, number crunching style RPG than most other RPGs we have gotten in recent years- and this is something that is well represented in the full range of classes and races that are available in the game, all of which are fairly differentiated.

In this guide, we cover these different classes and races, as well as their unique perks and bonuses.

CLASSES ATTRIBUTES

These are the following classes in the game, along with the stat boosts you get for picking each:

  • Enchanter
    Intelligence +1, Constitution +2
  • Fighter
    Strength +1, Constitution +2
