In a game where it's important to talk to everyone , Sebille's ancestry can come in handy with other elves. Members of her race are more likely to trust her over other party members, spilling secrets or giving access to certain ar

This skill freezes every liquid surface in its area of effect and deals damage to every ally and enemy. If the damage wasn't bad enough, the icy surface can lead to allies slipping and getting knocked down. This spells bad news for allies who may get attacked by enemies without being able to fight b

Like Chloroform, the Gag Order skill is useful against enemies with magic armor. This skill destroys the enemy's magic armor and also sets the silenced status effect for one turn. Silenced is great to use against enemies that use magic. It removed their capability to use any magical abilities and forces them to attack with physical attacks . This skill can be obtained randomly, but players can also purchase the skill from Papa Thrash in the Driftwood Tav

Rupture Tendons is a great skill for players to obtain as soon as they can. It is a great skill to use against boss enemies to take them down a peg. This skill is great for two reasons. One, it deals one hundred percent damage to the enemy and can backstab. Two, it causes the enemy to take damage whenever they decide to move. Setting up a situation where the enemy will have to move after using this skill will cause them to receive piercing damage with each step. Ruptured Tendons only lasts for two turns, but it is worth

Path of Exile shares a lot in common with Diablo. PoE is set in a dark, medieval fantasy world and features isometric ARPG combat, both qualities fans of Diablo will find familiar. An expansive skill system lets players choose from seven different character classes and then empower them through a network of active and passive skill trees. Emphasizing character choice, the classes are not limited to obtaining skills tied to attributes that aren't tied directly to their class. The inventory system in PoE is unique partly because the game eschews traditional currency systems. There is no one unified currency but rather a multitude of different currencies that are expanded as expansions roll out for the g

This means they won't be able to move . Third, Impalement brings oil with it. Now, any ally who isn't already crippled is slowed and can't move as far without spending more action points. That is all without mentioning that any nearby fire surfaces could cause an explos

Ice Breaker is nothing short of a magnificent looking ability, but as great as it looks, it can be just as harmful to allies as it is to enemies. This ability breaks all ice within its area of effect, setting of a chain reaction that deals water damage to every character caught in it. This ability also sets the chilled status eff

The Scoundrel tree has some great abilities that can be retrieved early in the game. Chloroform is another one of these great abilities that can be retrieved as soon as a player reaches Fort Joy. Chloroform is extremely useful for a Scoundrel player to have throughout the game. It deals direct damage to an enemy's magic armor. If the enemy doesn't have any magic armor left, Chloroform puts them to sleep. The sleeping status effect only lasts for one turn, but it is useful if a player is in a b

Coming in next is Torchlight 2 , another ARPG very much in the Diablo vein. The game's development team includes members who worked on the first two Diablo games. What sets Torchlight apart is its cartoonish visuals, a far cry from the stark medieval tone of Diablo, and its steampunk setting. The game also supports a broad modding community, harkening back to the early days of Diablo 2 . While there is a third SLG Game Strategy in the franchise, many players hold Torchlight 2 in higher regard than its successor. Another fun romp hacking, slashing, and blasting away, Torchlight 2 is a good way to kill time while waiting for the next big update for Diablo 4 at Blizzcon 2

Likewise, D&D players shouldn't forget to engage with NPCs even in combat. Calling their attention mid-battle to strike up a conversation can end combat immediately. In fact, characters with good-enough Charisma or Skills in Insight, Deception, Intimidation, and Persuasion can avoid unnecessary battles entir

While it has some major gameplay differences from Diablo , Divinity: Original Sin 2 shares much the same spirit as the Diablo franchise. Featuring more tactical turn-based gameplay, Divinity offers a huge berth of character customization options and a very robust story. The heart of the progression system is similar to Diablo as players expand their abilities by leveling up and empowering their characters through acquisition of more and more powerful weapons and g

The Scoundrel tree is one of the most tempting to use in Divinity: Original Sin 2 . Scoundrels focus on hiding in the shadows. They sneak across the battlefield undetected and assault their enemies with lethal backstabs. Some players may have always been interested in what a Scoundrel can do and some players may be new to the g
