Hi everyone,
The latest update for Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Definitive Edition is now live!
If you've been looking for new ways to create Static Cloud Arrows, Explosive Arrows, or grant immunity to Madness we have you covered with new recipes in this update. It's easier to be Sir Lora's shield now that he's ignored by Shriekers and your battles will be easier to navigate thanks to notifications in combat being moved up. We've also addressed issues with the combat log.
Enjoy your adventures throughout Rivellon!
