If you levitate from a sprint jump while releasing the movement key (or stick in neutral), you will get the S U P E R G L I D E which moves with the momentum of your jump!
What
@@lachlanjenkins7243they're saying that if you sprint jump and do the Levitate move in the air without imputing a movement direction, you'll glide in the air with the fast speed you had when you were running
Tried it out and it actually works
This works on PC as well, basically is double the movespeed of the glide if you hold a movement key ... which is awesome.
I apparently liked this when it was made then forget about it and just now saw it again and this is WILD
Thank you for spreading the word of S U P E R G L I D E
what a time to be dragon's dogma fan!
To early! ^^
DD probably has the best magic out of any game I've played, loved playing as a mage and can't believe i didn't know you could enchant yourself! time to redownload and do another mage run!
I remember enchanting myself by accident and desperately trying to find out how I did it, then note and behold - finding out that that's also how to manually aim offensive and AoE spells, just then I realized how amazing magic in this game really is!
Apologies if there's any weirdness with the quality, technical difficulties were a nightmare this time around and I had to jump through several hoops just to get this thing rendered. That said, wanna give a warm welcome to any and all new Arisen who've decided to check out the game since Dragon's Dogma 2 was announced, and a BIG congratulations to the community!! Our patience has finally paid off with the promise of a long-awaited sequel and I couldn't be more excited!
I VERY much approve of the music you use when you mage hover in the video.
Our song of hope she dances on the wind, Higher, oh higher, E'er our vows endure, and remain forever strong, standing tall in the dark do we carry on.. On wings of hope we carry through the night, higher, oh higher, carrying our song cradled fast in our arms...
I see we both have great taste in games.
Using DMCV's statue theme in the background, which seems like it's a bit of music inspired by Dragon's Dogma, from a game by the maker of Dragon's Dogma in a video about Dragon's Dogma. Love it
Let's rock baby!
The shift key is the standard button for self-targeting buffs/heals on Keyboard
Thank you 🫡
Excellent series of videos, really excited for the rest of them! :)
For anyone playing on Keyboard, to self enchant you just need to press Shift before releasing any spell and the skill will lock on your own character. This also allows for free aim for offensive spells like Ingle.
This is very helpful, thank you!
Thank you so muchhhhh
Nnnoted
Hats off for using the Summoner theme song. That game had a badass OST
The lightning whip comment was hilarious, great video!
Great video man looking forward to future vocations!
Love the inclusion of the theme song to Summoner in there!!!!!! Love that game. I'm currently playing as a Sorcerer in my new run. I absolutely love the spells that the Arisen can learn. I am going to spec him as a mage once he is a higher level! I've played Dragon's Dogma for years and have just now dipped my toes into being a spell caster. Usually my pawn is!
So glad someone caught that, I adored Summoner when I was younger. Magic is fantastic in this game, glad you're giving it a whirl!
@@ThiefofCrystals Summoner is one of those rough diamonds. It was amazing and I keep meaning to boot up the PS2 and play it again. Yeah, I am really enjoying slinging spells around. Even though I have to keep myself safe so I can cast. It is so much fun.
Appreciate the QoL improvements! Hope to see the next video sometime next month!
You're very welcome! Yeah hopefully I can get it out then or even sooner!
Wonderful video! Thank you algorithm for leading me to a channel of someone who loves Dogma AND FFXIV! Look forward to the future vocation videos!
Thank you very much! I've already got the script written up and footage nabbed for the next one, just gotta edit everything together and it'll be ready to go!
I can't help but keep HIgh Levin on my sorcerer. I know there's better damage spells out there, but I love the animation of it and it's great to have a quick casting spell on hand (plus it's great to attack enemies that have a weak spot that's on top of them).
This games magic has completely spoiled me, even now there is very few games with magic like this, I swear DD2 magic is gonna be amazing
Great video, just what I needed to help me out
Absolute banger video! Cant wait for the warrior video so I can truly become Guts!
I'd actually say- go ahead and use Frazil if you are headed for the water temple, or someplace where you expect to fight a lot of regular Saurians. They are *very* vulnerable to freezing and it completely trivializes the fight. Don't use it on Yellow Sulpher Saurians. Use fire on those instead.
It also works quite well with a rusted staff that's at least 3 *'s. Then again, pretty much all of the fast, multi hitting spells do.
“Bro I was gonna be a wizard Fr” I’m dying 😂😂😂
As a Mage, I would use offensive spells such as High Ingle/Comestion, High Levin/Brontide, and High Frigor. My secondary skills are Fire and Holy Afffinity, plus High Grapnel (I use it mainly when a large enemy is downed, which gives my pawns enough time to do some serious damage).
My Mage Pawn, will not use offense at all, instead they will support. The skills are High Anodyne, Halidom, and Spellscreen, along with Fire + Holy Affinity and High Grapnel (this last spell works in tandem with a Rusted Staff fully upgraded for further debilitations)
Learned a lot here. The self enchant thing alone was worth the price of admition.
LOVING this series. Even though i know most of this stuff its still so nice to watch. And plus you put some good information ive never known before!!!
Exactly what I like to hear! Very glad you've been enjoying! Hopefully Assassin shouldn't be too far away - just been a bit caught up in life stuff!
@Thief of Crystals take your time man. Ill like it no matter how long it takes!! I wish you the best with the life stuff!
great video! I kind of want to be a mage now since I feel I'm more of a methodical player myself so maybe I'll try this before I hit Sorcerer.
You can enchant yourself by hitting the shift key during charge up.
I cannot wait for the later classes it's going to be amazing
Thank you so much! Editing Warrior now!
I use magick archer but warrior is my go to for health boost
Im currently doing a Mage run. Bring a pawn that can tank and has the Pioneer as its first behavior, then make sure you dont run head first into combat, let pawns initiate; that will let you use the close quarter spells. Blearing is specially good against Cockatrice.
You can't talk about focused bolt without teaching people the trick to using it more effectively. Press and hold the light attack button the jump, you will cancel the attack animation and start charging the Focused Bolt while giving you more maneuverability, three levels into warrior to get ferocity augment will increase the moves damage.
Anodyne will also deal a tiny bit of damage to undead and life sap to get back some of the white portion of your health, not overly useful but it helps.
L3 changes the targeting of moves like Ingle - grapnel will give you a targeting cursor, levin a single striking location and Anodyne will reset the target close to the caster. I use the cursor with high/grand ingle and move it mid attack to spray multiple goblins with one casting and target specific parts on large monsters.
Mage is the class I would play if DD had true multiplayer.
high brontide is not only the best spell, it's the only one that reminds me of ratchet and clank
also that wolf at 2:51 was ready to throw down, tanked that shot like a madman
I think its also worth mentioning you can eyeball certain skills like ingle. Just press the Affinity spell self cast button (Shift for PC) while you're casting. And you can manually fire your skills. also works for certain AOE spells. Great to recast your Ingle if the auto target messes up
yeah, you can 'snipe' enemies from far away using Ingle when you manually target them
This game is on sale so I'm gonna binge watch your vids cause I can't be bothered to figure out things myself.
I feel like the great wizard merlin when I do a mage walkthrough
Ok Dragon's Dogma I bought it recently I have 38 hours of play where I restart every time because I am undecided about what class to do BUT what I hear in the background is the FFX hymn of faith like deserved
Excellent guide again. Frankly, my knowledge of magic in this game is quite lacking, but this video is making me consider fixing that. Looks like I’ll be doing another run to celebrate the sequel announcement, and I’ll be playing a mage for it.
Hell yea! Honestly my own knowledge of magic is lacking compared to the other classes, so I'm glad I managed to put together a helpful guide despite that!
Missed point about levitate: It can also turn you into a skyrim horse against most ledges. Still not as good as double jump, but
What was the song used in the levitation showcase?
For anyone wondering. To enchant yourself on mouse and keyboard mine was set to shift
Music from Summoner?! That's a sub from me! I've definitely felt some Summoner vibes in DD
I love them both!
Was looking to do a mage build with an entire diverse party of melee and range pawns for my 3rd play through of the game
also the unupraded comestion is better than high comestion, especially for pawns. It takes less time to charge and does pretty much the same amount of damage, if not more.
Mage is a class that I always bring along in my partty usually my own pawn, it may not be a natural disaster like the sorcerer, but those flashy spells take a long time to cast and can be interrupted.
Mage gives you medium to fast casting spells, a healing spell and another to cure most status effects, grapnell for binding big bastards and a few good elemental spells for damage or enchantments make a mage a pretty solid class even at high levels.
Sorc also can cure status ailments, does more damage, and healing isn't a problem at endgame since everything one shots, it's just a dps race at that point and I'll take big dick sorceror for that over puny mage blasts.
@@DragoonCenten that's a matter of preference, i usually play as a magic class so I do the big magic damage and my pawn supports.
Mage is a better support caster than a sorcerer, the only ilments a sorcerer can cure than a mage can't are debuffs and petrification and if I get petrification I rather cure it myself than wait for the pawn to do so.
If I'm playing a phisical class like assassin or fighter I tend to bring a sorcerer with a mage and another range or tank pawn.
Playing as a sorcerer is a blast tho
Love the Summoner ST
Which spells do you get to keep as a sorcerer?
Is this Summoner music? My first Rpg. Played it 20 years ago and still remember
I am a heavy FFXIV fan, whenever you plug in FFXIV references I scream
BTW... Self Cast on PC is the same key to sprint with.
wish I could have a full custom and manageable party that I could play mage support in. It'd be great to actually command the pawns on what to do and that sort of thig. ?The game is so close to being able to do this, maybe it will be possible in the second game. Until then I'll just be killing everything and watch my pawn run in a circle (at least she looks good doing it) as I spam commands at it.
Regular Comestion is better than the high variant in every conceivable way, in every conceivable situation and can't no one convince me otherwise. 😝
Try it with an upgraded oil staff on a chimera or griffin and watch them melt.
It takes three seconds to cast. It hits a wide area, both horizontally and vertically. It has massive knockback and DOT potential. Comestion along with High Miasma and focused bolt are my go to quick casts, and i do my utmost to teach this to my pawns with their primitive AI 'brains'; even they seem to get the idea more often than not. 😎
Can I witch between classes during my playthrough or am I stuck with just one throughout the whole game or else I will never be powerful?
You can absolutely switch classes however much you like, talk to the innkeeper in Gran Soren (he's called Asalam) to change your vocation! Don't worry too much about power - one way or another you will become stronger the more levels you gain, regardless of how you go about it.
@@ThiefofCrystals
Sweet!! I really like that. I've been thinking about getting the game on the switch because I haven't played it since I was little when it came out. It was really complicated to me at the time but I'm sure it will be easy peasy now. Thanks for the quick reply, I've been watching the rest of your videos and they have been a great help before I jump back into the game. Have a great day!
@@happyfossil9065 You're very welcome, I'm glad I could help! I hope you have a great day too!
Nice shaft, I mean video!
That FFXIV music made me have the urge to play the game again.
Shift while casting enchantment.
charged light and heavys don't work, it just does regular uncharged and wont let me charge
OMFG magic is fun in this game
You can do High Brontide in Armored Core 6, it´s called plasma thrower 44-143 hmmr, super cool...
First time saw rook enchant himself with fire, just didn't know how to do it since I keep playing as a fighter.
Hey what's the music playing at ~6:00
World of Final Fantasy - Hymn of the Fayth!
The track that comes after that is Devil May Cry 5 - Divinity Statue!
Played for YEARS never knew about focused bolt 💀💀💀💀
Daimon: oh for fucks sake
How can I use now magic ?
I am playing as a magic Archer, so can u tell me how to increase my magic...
Neon white tunes let's go!
Damn, what's the music for the warrior teaser ? I know it, I know I've heard it
FF7 Remake - 7 Seconds 'Til The End
@@ThiefofCrystals YES THANK YOU, god dammit it was so obvious and yet it was stuck there.
I knew it was a FF but didn't remember which (maybe 'cause part of the melody is used in a ff14 boss fight, funnily enough)
@@ThiefofCrystalshate to be that guy but what song is playing when you use levitate?
He's gonna Harry Potterfy me he's gonna gandalf the grey me wait he's teaching me to be a mage oh I wanted to be a wizard I wanted to be the next holder of the sorcerer of stone I wanted to shale not pass people. Great video.
YOU CAN ENCHANT YOURSELF WTF IVE PLAYED THIS SINCE RELEASE HOW TF DID I NOT KNOW THIS
I feel this lmao
If you picked up a mage pawn maybe you'll see them enchanting themselves :P My main pawn is a mage so I knew this right from the beginning hours.
Omg I didn’t see sorcerer as an option in the beginning 😢
Generally
I haven't ever used magic, but I have spent a lot of time yelling at my pawn to cast fire affinity so I can damage the fucking phantasms.
That FFXIV Music NICE!!!!!
Why can I not use any spells when they are in primary slots?
Please help, it just does light and heavy attacks
If using controller, you gotta hold right bumper
....is that shenmue I hear in the background???😳
Was watching for a refresher on the skills for a World Difficulty playthrough, and had to stop to go on a FFXIV music binge.
This is your fault.
Sidenote : Ff14 turns me into an absolute sap and has brought me to tears multiple times. Which was particularly awkward while playing through the whole story with my gf :P
Glad to be of service lmao
Very much were, and excellent videos. I've ended up watching (i think) every class guide out of entertainment. Started with Mystic Knight because that was the intention for the playthrough, but the videos were great and I wanted to watch more. I look forward to anything else you decide to make, and if you don't do more then I wish you full enjoyment of future gaming :)
And now after Mage and Sorcerer, I'm struggling to decide what to make my pawn that's intended to be based off ff14 characters we played together. I was Paladin main.
She's a red mage and likes to do healing and support, but also loves blasting the crap out of everything, so I'm not sure yet which fits more for her. Wish she'd find the time to try DD and tell me herself.
@@xbamfo8199 That's incredibly kind of you to say, thank you so very much! I'm very glad you enjoyed, best of luck with the gf! And hey, if she does end up playing, hopefully she finds these guides useful too!
When are the rest coming
Working on Magick Archer now!
*IM POOR IN RIFT CRYSTALS AND I HAVE MULTIPLE BITTER GACHA ORES I CANT PURIFY*
so please, hire my pawn.
Handle: Croux
Pawn: Elfussy
Platform: PC/Steam
edit: Elfussy is a sorceress equipped with 3 grand spells(seism, gicel, and bolide).
Is it too early to get the next video?
Sadly yes xD But rest assured I'll be hard at work on it!
I wont lie, I almost only played this class PURELY for a Lightning whip lmao
This game is like 30 bucks on ps4 should I get it???
If you think it looks cool go for it!
@@ThiefofCrystals dude it looks sick. 👌 Thanks for the videos. Good humor too
@@remingtonpenaranda7762 You're very welcome! And thanks!
Sorry for the question but why the skinny characters? Not criticism I’m just asking 🤷🏻♂️
So it's actually been the same character for each video just with a different hairstyle, that aside I've always preferred slender builds for my characters, I grew up with sort of an aversion to macho stuff but I've since come to appreciate everything over the years, prettyboys for life tho
Do I hear Hymn Of The Fayth??? lol
You do indeed
Mage should definitely be replaced with witch or something 🤔
OMG i played this game over 300hrs and i never used high grapnel, i thout it was useless O_O
YOU CAN ON TO YOURSELF FOR ENCHANTMENTS!?!? ill be rite back.
Ifkr 🤔
Apot -potato lol
Beat I tude 😂
Far and away the worst class in the game, the only positive thing I can sat about the Mage is that it has some pretty nice augments... for the Sorcerer
Anything worth using the Sorcerer has access to, not to even mention the horrible stat growth and the complete waste of having healing/ support spells in this game
Also if I had the choice between Levitate/ Double Jump on all vocations I would take Levitate every time, it's way too handy and fun to use
