Odinblade's Pyrokinetic Class Overhaul

Thank you, and I hope you enjoy this mod!


Version 1.4.1 (Read the Patch Notes here!)

Magic schools in Divinity: Original Sin 2 have been designed to facilitate user creativity of playstyles and builds; this Pyrokinetic Overhaul is no exception. With the improvements made to all Pyrokinetic skills, along with the introduction of over 15 brand-new skills, this overhaul bolsters the creativity of Sourcerers. Although magic schools are essentially an open book, I have identified 4-key playstyles I think you’ll all enjoy:

• Scorcher
  A fire mage specialising in unavoidable damage-over-time (DoT) effects.
  
• Infernal
  A bulky close-quarters knight who utilises flames to deal extra damage.
  
• Arsonist
  A pyromaniac hell-bent on smothering the battlefield in flames.
  
• Phoenix
  A versatile team-player who buffs allies and debuffs enemies with the same skills.

Build cards found in the image gallery at the top of this mod page give some high-level pointers into how to utilise these playstyles effectively. My personal favourite is the Scorcher, a play-style reminiscent of my Spectre class.

There are many skills in this class overhaul, so I have made an online document containing all of the skill descriptions. Please click the link below to access it.


You may have noticed some skills from Divinity: Original Sin EE making a return with some additional effects, such as Burning Touch and Purifying Fire. I thought it was about time to bring back some old favourites to provide new and interesting build paths.

Additionally, as a comprehensive overhaul, this mod also reworks a lot of the basegame Pyrokinetic spells, and I have compiled these changes into a doc:


Flameblades are new one-handed weapons (meaning they can be used with skills such as Whirlwind) which deal Fire-damage and scale with Intelligence - perfect to burn the battlefield! Flameblades can be purchased from Sol'Lithe, the new Pyro vendor.




Sol’Lithe the Pyromancer is an expert in fire magic, and she is able to sell the party skillbooks. Sol’Lithe also sells crafted skillbooks at levels 5 and 13. She can be found throughout the game in various locations:

• Fort Joy:
  
  • Next to a tent east of the Fort’s initial entrance, on the way to Beast (shipwreck).
    
  • At an entrance to Armadia's Sanctuary, next to Exeter.
• Reaper's Coast:
  
  • Aboard the Lady Vengeance. She is on the top deck of the ship, next to a ballista.
    
  • In Driftwood Square, underneath a tree leading towards the fishing docks.
• Nameless Isle: On the landing shore as you arrive.
  
• Arx: In the city square next to a market stall, east-side opposite the platform in Arx Square.

Basegame Pyrokinetic vendors also stock the new non-crafted skills and weaponry and the new vendors can be toggled on/off whenever you like using the Odinomicon mod settings menu from OdinCore.
