Cunning | Hero - Talents Risen 2 Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Dirty Tricks
Affects: chance of success of Dirty Tricks and their lasting time;
Usefulness: very high, but only on the basic level. In truth, throwing sand at foes' eyes is only marginally weaker than using a Parrot (which is costly and requires a separate skill). Dirty Tricks greatly facilitate fighting - especially when fighting one on one;
Legendary item: Flask (Isle of Thieves, talent +10);
Skills: Dirty Tricks I, Dirty Tricks II, Dirty Tricks III
Thievery
Affects: stealing from certain characters and opening locked chests;
Usefulness: huge. Without leveling this talent the game gets very difficult, as the Nameless Hero quickly runs out of money. Apart from that, opening chests is a requirement in quests involving unique weapons;
Legendary item: Snuffobox (Caldera, talent +10);
Skills: Thievery I, Thievery II, Thievery III
Silver Tongue
Affects: persuading certain characters to your point of view;
Usefulness: surprisingly low. Each quest that demands this talent may be solved by using other measures (which also give more Glory points). The cases in which the talent opens new dialogue options or lowers the costs of quests are also very rare. It's not too much of use;
Legendary item: Hand mirror (Tacarigua, talent +10);
Skills: Silver Tongue I, Silver Tongue II, Silver Tongue III.
