Stuck Without Bless Spell in Divinity: Original Sin 2

As I'm writing this, I'm feeling frustrated and desperate to avoid deleting my save after hours of playing. The issue is that I'm stuck because I don't have the Bless spell, which prevents me from progressing beyond the hanging tree end-of-act-1 bit.

I thought I had already obtained the spell, but it turns out I never gave it to my player character despite saying I did. After reloading an old save and rechecking the shrine of the seven, I realized that the issue wasn't with the shrine itself, but rather with my party setup.

In most RPGs, a balanced party with varied characters is essential, including a Warrior, Rogue, Wizard, and Cleric. In Divinity: Original Sin 2, there are two main damage types: Physical and Magic. To make things more complicated, you need to Bless your elemental damage dealers to let them speak to you.

Since I was playing as my polymorphed warrior with origin abilities, I didn't have the ability to communicate with those hanging from the tree being very, very cursed. It's not until after the fight with Lady Vengeance that things got stuck.

I tried checking my hot bar and even assigning a new skill to an empty slot, but Bless didn't show up. This is where I noticed that Fane and the Red Prince both had Bless, while Ifan did not.

So, what's the solution? First Aid, another Huntsman Skill in Divinity: Original Sin 2, can cure Atrophy, among other conditions. Additionally, it scales with level and Hydrosophist when healing, as well as Warfare when dealing damage. It also increases its range to 8m after a patch update.

If you're facing the same issue I did, make sure to check your party setup and consider getting First Aid or Bless to progress through the game.
