Summary
There are a number of weapons for players to obtain inDivinity: Original Sin 2. The best weapons will largely depend on the members of the party, theirchosen skills, and what overall strategy the player is going for.
That being said there are some weapons that provide the wielder with so much power they should be considered regardless. Whether it is unique abilities, skill boosts, or impressive damage, here are some of the more powerful weapons in this RPG.
Updated on July 03, 2025 by Rhenn Taguiam:With Larian Studios declaring that its new game is an entirely new IP, fans ofDivinity: Original 2might be hoping this new game could at least be in some form or fashion related to Larian’s hit title. However, with no details released about their new title, fans could only wait for any hints from the acclaimed studio. Thankfully,Divinity: Original Sin 2has just enough content to offer players with countless hours of gameplay, especially if they’re out to look for specific objectives such as finding the game’s best weapons. Among must-have armaments include a weapon accessible only when players choose to opt out of diplomacy in a situation, a powerful weapon from a fight in the endgame, and two surprisingly-decent armaments they can obtain from an NPC merchant.
19Fang Of The Winter Dragon
Perfect For Act 1 Adventures
TheFang of The Winter Dragonis near Fort Joy on the South Southwest part of the island. There, players can find Slane The Chained Winter Dragon. Killing the dragon will yield the Fang Of The Winter Dragon, letting him live will prevent the player from getting this weapon.
Whether or not it’s worth killing the dragon is debatable, but if the player needs something viable at this point in the game it is a good option. It has a number of perks and bonuses along with the ever-useful Chilled effect.
18Morning’s Light
A Decent Bow For Where It’s Discovered
Morning’s Lightis obtained from the NPC Corbin Day either by freeing or killing him. Killing him isn’t ideal as he can upgrade weapons later in the game. It’s not the strongest weapon in the game, but it is one of the better bows that players can find.
Morning’s Light comes with some strong damage and some helpful bonuses and perks.
17Eternal Stormblade
Perfect For Act 3 Adventures
The Eternal Stormbladeis hidden in the Murky Cave in Act 3. It is protected by four guardians who must be defeated prior to obtaining the sword. For such a difficult fight it’s surprisingly not one of the strongest weapons in the game. Players will probably want something better by Act 4.
Still it’s a decent weapon and might be worth having if only for Act 3. It comes with a number of perks and bonuses that can prove useful.
16Lohar’s Two-Handed Source Hammer
A Handy Source Hammer
Lohar’s Two-Handed Source Hammercan be obtained after completing the quest Shadow Over Driftwood. Upon turning over Mordu’s Amulet Lohar will give the player this Hammer. It’s strong and is handy for brawler types for the mid-game.
A higher-than-average Critical Hit Rate is also great for occasional powerful bursts of damage. It comes with these benefits.
15Hanal Lechet
Combine Fire And Ice
Hanal Lechetis a weapon that can be obtained in Act 2. While traveling along the Reaper’s Coast the player will come across an overturned carriage with a frightened Dwarf Woman who survived the incident. The weapon will be in one of the locked chests.
It may not have the greatest damage but the Frozen and Chilled effects make it a strong option for locking opponents down in a fight. It has a number of bonuses and effects.
14The Illuminator
Be One With Necrofire
TheIlluminatoris a one-handed Mace dropped by Scapor during the Burning Pigs questline. Originally it was a torch that hung on the walls of the dungeon of the mad king Braccus Rex. Supposedly the atrocities it was near have had an effect on the torch imbuing it with dark power.
That power is the ability to cause both fire and physical damage when swung. It also comes with a +150% damage boost and a +5% chance of inflicting critical. Its main perks are a +1 to Pyrokinetic, a 50% chance of causing Necrofire, and a 10% chance of inflicting Burning.
13Dumora Lam
Poison Becomes A Friend
Dumora Lamis a powerful wand locked in aruned chestin Dramahlihk’s home plane. Getting access to this realm requires Lohse in the party and Malady to be alive. If the player can disarm the traps and unlock the chest they’ll obtain a fantastic weapon.
It provides a +3 boost to Intelligence, +2 to Geomancer, and +1 to Dual Wielding. In addition to solid base damage is its poison manipulation properties. It can create a 1m pool of poison which is handy forUndead heroes. It can also remove poison using Siphon Poison to convert those pools into poison-based attacks.
12Deiseis Riveil
Ramp Up Damage With An Anti-Invisible
Deiseis Riveilis a unique bow that can be bought from theTrader Nonjust outside the Cathedral. It deals a whopping 149 base physical damage with each strike. It can also ramp up that damage with a +5% chance of landing a critical and a +150% boost to critical damage, that’s a base damage of 372.5 for a critical hit!
It also comes with the ability Glitter Dust which makes it impossible for the enemy to go invisible and makes it harder for them to dodge. The bow also has a 25% chance of causing Bleeding for two turns and raises Cleave damage by 25%.
11Executor Ninyan’s Axe
A Meister Has To Die To Acquire This Powerful Asset
When players ofDivinity: Original Sin 2embark on their journey to help their Godwoken unlock their latent potential by talking to important NPCs across Rivellon, they will realize one of their targets - Meistr Siva - is held captive and about to be executed by Executor Ninyan. Kind players might want to stop her execution and save her, especially if they manage to talk Ninyan out of it. However, doing so will make players miss out on one of the more decent weapons in the game:Executor Ninyan’s Axe.
Despite the straightforward nature of the item, Executor Ninyan’s Axe is only dropped by Ninyan when killed. Convincing her to leave Siva will make the item unattainable, giving players a small window to obtain it. On top of 5-6 Water Damage and 29-35 Physical Damage, the Two-Handed Axe has quite a lot of perks. On top of chances to set Chilled, Cripple, and Frozen, the item does add to Strength, Warfare, and Criticals - making this perfect for tanks who want to cleave opponents quickly with the occasional chance of stunning them.
10Chamore Doran
The Only Weapon In The Game With Its Chance Effect
It’s not uncommon for anRPG likeDivinity: Original Sin 2to offer opportunities for players to purchase items from NPCs, such as Trader Ovis in Driftwood Square. However, one must-have item from his arsenal would beChamore Doran- a Wand that is the only weapon that offers a chance to set enemies to Sleep.
Moreover, the Wand does offer quite a lot of advantages to Spellcasters. Its +160% Critical Damage is immediately an incentive to pursue Glass Cannon and other critical builds. Not only that, the additional Intelligence, Summoning, and Aerotheurge can motivate stun-heavy plays that can cripple the opponent’s ranks when used properly.
