Divinity: Original Sin 2: Definitive Edition

[Thomas Cardew]

Peace of mind is a massive wits boost. It starts at 4 and increases with level, combined with encourage that would get you over 27. If your high wits character is your party face, you can buff them while in convos and the buffs don't time out. Since you're in driftwood the herb mix are still usable with their massive 50 to 100 turn durations.

There are a few fights were the ai always get first move. But they are pretty rare, most of the time higher initiative goes first.

What you can also do is only start the fight with 1-2 people. The ones who join late get stacked at the end of the first round. If your highest initiative character joins late and is higher than the enemy, you can get two consecutive turns. Only works once though, after that it's strictly round Robin. Unless you start abusing escape mechanics.
