Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition - PC
Easy experience points:
-----------------------
After getting the Telekinesis+2 ability, go to Cyseal. Go on the road northwest of the
market square. Look for a large beer barrel on stilts behind some wooden barriers and
up some steps.
Once there, switch to your secondary character and place the barrel in their inventory.
The barrel will overburden that character, making them unable to move. Switch back to
your main character and leave the secondary character with the barrel. Get into a random
encounter outside Cyseal. During combat, open your inventory menu and send the Beer
Barrel to your main character. Take the barrel out of your inventory, then use
Telekinesis+2 to slam it into your enemies. They should be killed instantly.
All enemies from random encounters in the overworld map can be killed by this method.
Source Temple puzzle:
---------------------
Once inside the Source Temple you will find a massive puzzle in the central chamber
with three Statues of Self-Awareness. Step on the floor panel switch to open the first
door. There are pressure pads in each room, but some are dangerous. Step on the pressure
pad close to the giant head, then enter to the room to the right. Step on the pressure
pad found there to open the left door that opens into a third room. Once inside, bypass
the poison gas trapped pressure pad. Search the walls to find a hidden button that opens
another doorway. Go through to enter an area with a broken bridge. Throw a Teleport
Pyramid across and teleport to the other side.
Teleport across the hole and search for a door to open past some wreckage to reach a
teleportation waypoint. Activate the "Source Temple Vault" waypoint to enter the Source
Temple Vault. Save the game, as another puzzle must be solved. You must destroy one of
the statues, but if the incorrect one is selected you will teleport to the start of the
temple. You must solve the puzzle and destroy the correct statue based on the clue that
is given. Throw a Teleport Pyramid into the treasury and travel inside. Step through
the mirror, collect the Earth Key, and retrieve your Teleport Pyramid. Return to the
central chamber and go upstairs.
Use a characters with high Perception to find a hidden switch on a wall to the right of
the stairs and to the left of the door. If you were not able to find it, go down and
throw a Teleport Pyramid into the chamber from the south, then step on the pressure pad
inside to open the gate. Leave one of your characters on the pressure pad while the rest
of your party opens the Earth Door with the key. Kill the enemies found inside, then use
the clue to destroy the correct statue and obtain the Air Key. Return to the central
chamber and search for a floor switch next to the giant head. Go through the door that
it opened. Once in the second pressure plate room, leave a Teleport Pyramid behind
before entering the poison trap chamber. Activate the poison trap, then use the Teleport
Pyramid you left behind to escape. The Air Door path should now be open. Go through the
Air Door to enter a maze halls. Reach the center of the maze to find a closed gate.
Throw a Teleport Pyramid through then find the switch to open the path that leads to a
third statue puzzle. Follow the clues and destroy the correct statue. Return to the
central room. All three Statues of Self-Awareness should be lit. Read the books to get
clues. The final puzzle involves lighting specific candles in a specific order.
The order will vary depending on which statues were destroyed. Each correct step will
produce a lightning bolt. The tasks that must be done are as follows; change the order
to match your specific puzzle:
* Light all candles, except for the center one.
* Light the center candle only.
* Light the three horizontal candles only.
After three lightning strikes, the bookcase will open.

Easy money:
-----------
At the start of the game, you will not have much gold. To get a lot of gold, find
the raised balcony with the high ladder on the balcony in Fort Joy. Teleport up to
the balcony, then drop the ladder down to easily access the locked door.
Lockpick the door (it helps to have a diverse team) to enter Orivand's Chambers.
Note: If you do not have the Teleportation skill, acquire the Glove Of Teleportation
from "The Teleporter" quest. The chambers are full of expensive objects to steal,
including paintings and another locked chest you can get open with the right skills.
Take all available items and sell them for easy gold.
Do not forget to move the dressing panel in the missing balcony wall to find another
unlocked chest outside the chamber.
Put points into the Thievery and Sneaking skills to earn a lot of gold by pickpocketing
in town. Sneaking reduces vision cones, making it easier to avoid detection, while
thievery enhances the amount of gold you can loot, and improves your pickpocketing and
lockpicking skills.
Note: You can respect at any time to drop all your points into Thievery and Sneaking
if you want quick money. It also helps to collect armor or gear that further enhances
Thievery. Reach at least Thievery 4 for the best results. You can only attempt to
pickpocket a target once. If you find a target with lots of stuff to loot, dump all
your points and enhance Thievery as much as possible to get the most value out of a
wealthy NPC. You can completely rob traders -- so check to see if there is a spot
you can enter stealth near shops whenever possible. After robbing an NPC, they will
realize they have been robbed after a few seconds. Complete a pickpocket, then
immediately retreat out of the area so they do not see you. They will only alert
others and attack if they see you after they realize they have been robbed -- so you
can sprint away safely right after a successful pickpocket. Before pickpocketing,
send the rest of your party far away so you do not have to deal with them while
sneaking/retreating. They can wait outside of town or in a far-off location where
your victims will not find them. If a pickpocketed NPC does not find you, they
will exit the alert stage and you can safely talk to them without incident.
At Thievery 4, you can earn 2,000+ gold from a single wealthy NPC.
