Divinity Original Sin 2 Experience Information

  • Recruited characters instantly gain the same amount of experience as its recruiter.
  • In general, all characters in a party always have the same amount of experience, but there are known issues with this.
    • If the experience of companions is lower than the main player character, this can be fixed by dismissing and rehiring them.
  • There is no hard level cap, however:
    • In the Definitive Edition, approximately 22,450,000 experience can be earned without farming, making level 22 the practical maximum. As this requires thorough completionism and the killing of nearly every NPC, most players will only reach level 20/21.
    • 14,450 experience can be infinitely farmed from the Bone Smashers in the Bloodmoon Island quest The Advocate. To reach level 23, this would have to be done approximately 230 times.

  • Looted equipment also has a fixed level, this includes equipment looted with Lucky Charm.
  • Vendors restock their wares when the party levels up, to sell higher-leveled equipment. They also refresh their stock every 1 hour.
  • Crafted equipment is the same level as the character who crafted it.
  • When a character levels up, they regain all their Vitality, which is insanely useful during combat.

    • mm anyone know if the classic version of the game distributes the same? I know many things changed with the DE edition, nerfing experience in some areas to keep max experience down. I've never played the original classic version but how does the experience max level stack up in that. In the DE edition max you'll have like 20-21 million experience so level 22, but any one playing the original classic version have any info on THAT experience max levels, etc.

          Guys, se a gente recruta um personagem de origem, eventualmente eles vão sair da equipe para traçar sua própria história?

            A fun thing could be to get so few XP on the ship, so you are still level 1 when you wake up on the beach. Avoid all fight or event which give you xp, untill you have recruited your other 3 teams, since they will still also be lvl 1 and you will then can decide there skills upgrade from lvl 1 and not just from lvl 2. It can make a difference, especially on the Civil Abilities. To enter Fort Joy Ghetto before Dallas and Alexandras kill Magister Atusa, use the latter on the right.
