I don’t usually play tabletop and DnD, so I’m a little bit overwhelmed by everything going on all at once a couple hours into the game. I’m having fun playing as Lae’zel, and kind of going with it and have played quite a bit of D:OS2 years back, but I can’t help but feel like I’m messing things up somehow and might need to reroll a character later on.

Any beginner tips or things that made the game more enjoyable for you? Anything that took you way too long to realize? Didn’t see another thread anywhere else, but apologies if this thread already exists.

Little to no spoilers please.

Melee units are easier to grasp and are relatively strong early.

Spell casters feel a bit weird compared to a mana/action system. Outside of warlock with eldrich blast, everyone else is going to feel a bit limited early.

The game has respec, so I highly suggest getting your bearings right with a melee build at the beginning and then respecing into a spell caster once you have a better understanding of how limiting spell slots are.
