      @@feircy if it's long good, but no way I'll dabble first playthrough, not my style. I already got 500 hours in bg3 and if this game is good I'll for sure play at least 2 playthroughs so good time to have a dabbeling one. I like to stick with a choice first playthrough because makes it more authentic or special to me. To each their own on it ofc. Only dabbling I will likely do is play one at first and then later change to a different one that you unlock later (if I did not understand wrong). Sticking to one becomes a even more fun choice if different enemies are harder with different classes. Truly makes the class feel real and gives more reason to stick to it.

    • @feircy
      @feircy Před 3 měsíci +2

      @arstan8092 well basically there will be other ones that unlock as you go, your character level is independent of your vocation rank, and they can all be ranked up. Vocations will have passive augments (like bonuses to stats or resisting stagger effects, etc) that can be applied to your character regardless of your current class. So you have incentives to check the others out and see what you like. If you choose to stick with one go ahead, at least in the first game that was perfectly viable. But the limit of only 1 save file and the way the vocations work is basically built for you to use more than one over time. Plus new game + was 100% a thing at least in the OG

    At least by going from DD1 experience when it comes to the main pawn the overall best class to put on it is a mage, simply because a mage is the healer/buffer/debuffer/elemental dmg. Which is a class you pretty much always want to bring since it covers such a broad range of effects that any party wants. There is also a big emphasis on a weakness system in the last game and for like 80-90% of those weaknesses a mage have them covered, though you might need to switch some skills in and out depending on the area. Fighter is also a good choice if you wanna be a dmg dealer since the fighter will tank for you and also offer opportunities to deal more dmg. It's also seems fun to bring as many sorcerers as possible since they can chain their magic together in DD2.

    I was a huge fan of the magic archer in DD1 but that was because they had a nice mix of physical and magic damage options along with some stupid utility, without the daggers they seem closer to regular spellcasters. I will probably go spearhand for the magic/physical mix. I never leave the house without a big burly warrior pawn in DD1 and I'll stick with that in 2 if they are in any way similar. The the real reason for a well built warrior pawn is thier unmached ability to stagger and knock down opponents leading to way better damage just because they create damage windows that would not be there without them. I really like the tricksters in concept but I fear feeling like a suport character in my own game.

      That's exactly why I wasn't too excited about the Trickster at first, but now I'm starting to see the potential the class offers. If played correctly, you'll basically be a puppet master over the battlefield. Tricking enemies into slaughtering one another or killing themselves and confusing the enemy while your pawns mow them down with powerful buffs. And you get to sit back and watch it all from a distance. I just hope that pawns understand commands better than they did before. That will make or break the class for me.

    First Dragon's Dogma had one problem with magic classes: healing was exclusive for Mage and taking down petrification- the most dangerous debuff- for Sorceres so to have both effects, you had to take both pawns. So there was only one slot left. For my Magic Archer I needed tank or archer, but I was taking archer because there was a golem type which required destroying flying object which were immune for magic dmg, so without archer with physical arrows, whole team was helpless.
    And thus, we were running without tank: my Mysic Archer, my personal Mage and borrowed Sorcerer and Strider :p

In DD1 she was a strider to ranger, but to keep her as an archer the whole game this time around feels like a bummer.

      It’s just different brother, archer is ranger, strider and assassin bow forms. Instead of having daggers to fight close, they have to tools to maintain distance. It doesn’t need daggers. My pawn will be archer

    As someone who knows the hell outta dd1 it drove me up the damn wall how much you misnamed things lol. Manticore=chimera
    Mountain troll?= Cyclops
    Magic Knight= mystic Knight
    To point a couple.
    Also a couple really weird takes in here imo the biggest one is saying fighters are good at mounting because they're durable? The main utility of fighters mounting monsters is their weight can either help topple an off balance monster or weigh them down to tangle up their movement. Overall a somewhat nice video but with some weird hiccups in it

    On one hand; I think thief, warrior, mystic spearhand, and archer are most appealing to me personally. On the other, using some combo of all of them on the fly also seems ridiculously fun even if it’s less effective, so warfarer might be it for me.

    @randymarshislorde Před 3 měsíci

    Eventually I'll get to all of them, but after 1200ish hours in Dark Arisen, I found that my favorite class was Sorcerer and the one I thought was the biggest waste of potential was the Mystic Knight. I love Battlemages/Spellblades of all kinds but I hated having to use a shield to be one in the first game, so I'm 100% gonna focus Spearhand.

    I wouldn’t even put sorc and warrior in advance vocations anymore. Just more vocations unlocked. Thief, mage, fighter, archer, warrior, sorcerer are all standard vocations. Where the rest are hybrid/arisen vocations. That’s how I see it now compared to first DD1 where we had starter advance and hybrid

  • @Willow4526
    @Willow4526 Před 3 měsíci

    Depending on exactly how warfarer works such as limitations, I'll probably choose that as I'll be able to make a greatsword battle mage. Otherwise I'll probably just stick with sorc but who knows, the freedom to change classes without punishment, really makes me feel like anything is possible.

  • @mr.zwilliams7389
    @mr.zwilliams7389 Před 3 měsíci

    I’d like to point out that while you can change your vocations for a fee that which ever vocation you have equipped will effect your overall permanent stats on your character. As in if you played sorcerer primarily then change to a warrior class much later on you would essentially be a high level player waking enemies with a “wet noodle” of a weapon also your constitution and defense would be that of a sorcerer as well making you shatter like glass. This was the case with Dragon’s Dogma 1.

    @sword-and-shield Před 3 měsíci

    Pawns can't be hybrids so I will probably end up there, filling out the three pawns to max synergy with that hybrid to get through the main game play anyway. Gotta get the key augments across the various vocs if you are going hardcore tho.

      Even better: they incorporated the DDO Elemental Archer changes.
      You no longer fire a single arrow, but it instead charge up multiple shots. And you can toggle between all the shots focusing on one spot (River Shot), or the shot targets multiple spots (Pinpoint Volley).
      Also, they’re bringing the Elemental Archer’s Magick Eye to the main core attacks: the moment the firing reticule is fills up, loosing the shot is more powerful.

    Honestly I'm a little torn. I definately think I'll start as a thief since my first playthrough of DD1 was as a strider and I loved it. Climbing around on large enemies and stabbing is just fun. That being said, mystic spearhand does much the same and I do like spear wielders in RPGs. So I'll likely mess around with both of them until I eventually make up my mind...or the game ends...one or the other.

    If you switch vocations and then want to switch back to the original vocation, what's the cost? I'm assuming there will be some sort of rare item or currency cost. Do you have to restart the previous vocation rank? Do previous stats or augments carry over or do they get rest tot he new vocation's? (sorry - new to Dragon's Dogma but nerding out for adventure this based on what I've seen)

    • @plastichouseplant
      @plastichouseplant Před 3 měsíci +1

      I haven't played DD1 in a long while so I may be misremembering and have no idea if it works the same in this game but in DD1 for those who liked to min/max a build you'd want to switch between vocations as leveling up some of them to unlock certain skills and increase your stamina/damage/etc would basically make whichever vocation you settled on in the end stronger. So for example to be a min/maxed magick archer you'd want to spend x amount of time as a sorcerer to increase your magic damage, x amount of time as a ranger to increase your stamina, etc. If this game has the same system then I imagine stats will carry over as they will affect your character's damage in the end. And the augments you'd gain from leveling up certain vocations would carry over to whichever other vocation you switched to later and were helpful to have, like for example playing as a fighter for a few levels just to unlock the augment that lets you carry more stuff in your inventory. These would also apply to your pawn, so you'd switch their vocation to allow them to gain certain augments and increase their stats too. Not sure about the cost though, sorry!

    Warfarer for sure. Being able to use 3 classes at once means it should be far harder to get burned out. I'm between this 6 set ups:
    Weapon master: spearhand, archer, warrior
    Sage: mage, sorcerer, trickster
    Nightingale: thief/spearhand, magick/archer, trickster
    Arcane Knight: fighter, mage, magick archer
    Reaver: warrior, trickster, spearhand
    Magic knight(like steiner from ff9): warrior, spearhand, mage
    to enchant to specifically target an enemy weakness and buff himself

      @@DementiaGM as far as I know all the vocations use just one weapon, but the warfarer can carry three at a time and he can switch between mid battle very easily. There are some videos showing people changing very fast between weapons in a very fluid way. The skills will probably be tied to the weapon, but as you can switch so easily during battle I think it will not be a problem. The only disadvantage that we know are the low stats, and we don't even know how low they are. Maybe it can be circumvented by gear. Anyway, I think we can be sure that you can, for example, carry daggers, a bow and a magic bow, to make some very similar gameplay to the assassin/strider. Maybe it become even better for you, due to the third weapon
