Thank you, and I hope you enjoy this mod!


Version 1.1.0 (Read the Patch Notes here!)

Magic schools in Divinity: Original Sin 2 have been designed to facilitate user creativity of playstyles and builds; this Geomancer Overhaul is no exception. With the improvements made to all Geomancer 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:

• Plague
  Laughter isn't always the best medicine - the Plague know that a deadly concoction always does the trick.
  
• Sentinel
  Tough as steel, the Sentinel is an impenetrable force to be reckoned with.
  
• Terramancer
  Terramancers bend the earth around their foes to control the battlefield.
  
• Grovetender
  Known across Rivellon as the 'Voices of Nature', the Grovetenders maintain the balance of nature.

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 Grovetender, a plant-based support mage capable of dishing out good damage.

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 Conjure Earth Elemental and Midnight Oil. 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 Geomancer spells, and I have compiled these changes into a doc:



As with my other overhauls, I have added some new Intelligence-based melee weapons to bolster close-combat playstyles. Although there are currently no new weapon skills to accompany them, the new weapons will be a welcome addition to any team composition.



The new weapon types include: Earth Staves, Earth Wands, Earth Daggers, Poison Daggers, Poison Maces, and Earth Maces.


Kestia the Preserver is an expert in earth magic, and she is able to sell the party skillbooks. Kestia also sells crafted skillbooks at levels 5 and 13. She may be found throughout the game in various locations:

• Fort Joy:
  
  • Next to the tent east of the Fort's initial entrance, on the way to Beast (shipwreck).
    
  • Behind the tent next to the altar in Armadia's Sanctuary.
• Reaper's Coast:
  
  • Aboard the Lady Vengeance. She is next to a crate at the helm of the ship.
    
  • Outside the entrance of The Black Bull in Driftwood Square.
• Nameless Isle: On the landing shore as you arrive.
  
• Arx: In the East section of the market square, next to some crates.

Basegame Geomancer 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.
