Divinity: Original Sin 2 respec mirror Fort Joy

Divinity: Original Sin 2 is a game often lauded for the incredible depth in which players can sculpt their character, giving players a vast range of attributes and abilities at their disposal to create their dream RPG build. Comparisons to roleplaying icons such as Dungeon's & Dragonsand Pillars of Eternity are in no short supply. Divinity 2 has become a staple for RPG fanatics, especially after its successful port to console in 2018.

With the sheer number of skills and abilities Divinity 2 provides players with, it can be easy to make some ill-advised stat investments as one carves their way through Rivellon. After a run-in with a flock of teleporting alligators, for example, a player who prefers archery may decide they need to invest some points in their Warfare skills to assist in taking down enemies who get in close. It can be challenging to choose your abilities wisely in Divinity 2, and Larian Studios understands this. Players gain unlimited access to respecing via a magic mirror aboard the Lady o' War from Act 2 onward. However, while it's nice to have access to the magic mirror at any time after Act 1, slogging through Fort Joy with mismatched skills and abilities can lead to some challenging fights later in the zone. Thankfully that's changed, as players can now access a magic mirror before they ever even escape Fort Joy Ghetto early in Act 1.

 Where to Find the Fort Joy Magic Mirror in Divinity: Original Sin 2

Once you have chosen to use the magic mirror you will be transported to the customization menu for whichever character you had selected. This is very similar to the first menu of the game where you could design your character. You can change almost any aspect of your character from this menu, including respecing your skills. Note that you cannot change the race of your character ay any point after the initial customization in the game.

Once you’ve reached the customization menu, make the changes you wish and select the accept button at the bottom of the screen to save your changes.

There are 2 locations where you can find the magic mirror item in Divinity Original Sin 2. We will talk about how to get to both of these locations in the game including where they can be found on the map. One of the locations is in the base game and apart from just progressing through the game to unlock it, you won’t have to do anything else. The second magic mirror you will have to enable in the pause menu of the game.

Magic Mirror Location 1: Aboard the Lady Vengeance

Once you get to a certain point in the story of the game you will find yourself aboard the ship, the Lady Vengeance. In the base game this used to be the only magic mirror location in the game.

The magic mirror is located below deck on the bottom story of the ship. Head all the way down the stairs as far as you can go and you will find the magic mirror located on the bottom level on the back of the staircase.

Magic Mirror Location 2: Inside the Fort Joy Arena

To find this magic mirror you will first have to enable it in the settings menu. To have this mirror avaliable in the game to change your skills follow this guide below.

Step 1: Open up the pause menu using the ESC key. once you are in the pause menu select the option Gift Bag Features.

Once you’ve opened this up you will see a list of free DLC and addons that are made by the developers of the game. These went alongside with regular updates to bring more content to the game and to change how some of the mechanics work. Once you are in the Gift Bag menu scroll down until you find the ‘Fort Joy Magic Mirror’ item.

Make sure to activate this item and see if there are any other addons you wish to enable as well. Once you have enabled the Fort Joy Magic Mirror head to the kitchen area of Fort Joy. Once you have talked to the right NPC you will be able to use the small hatch in the kitchen that will lead you down to the arena. As soon as you go down the hatch turn to the right and the Magic Mirror should be there in the corner. It is quite dark and blends into the wall so keep your eyes peeled.

Those are the two magic mirror locations in Divinity: Original Sin 2. Maybe you made a mistake and no longer want a pyro magic build and want to change into a tank instead. Now that you’ve made your way to a magic mirror you can respec all of your characters to your heart’s desire. Using the magic mirror is completely free and there is not limit to the amount of times that you can respec. So try out a few different builds and have fun playing Divinity: Original Sin 2!
