Can You Beat Dragon's Dogma 2 with ONLY the Trickster??? (no pawns)

- The Trickster Vocation is almost incapable of dealing damage. But does that mean it can't beat the game by itself? I'll find out, don't you worry. I'm stubborn and crazy enough to go for it, no matter how much suffering it might cause me. But I believe in myself, and more importantly, I believe in the overwhelming power of cheesing games.

I like the idea of the trickster, but what it has is not enough.
They need faster casting time, minimum or no stamina costs, cause flailing a vape stick cant be that exhausting. it reminds me of a Loki with mind control build on warframe and a radiation proc setup. not good for damage but cc would be goated. i reckon the sealing bottle and bringing maesters to fight the final boss would be epic.
well i actually having fun playing as a trickster, as long I'm with a pawns. I have thief, archer and sorcerer pawn.. with the skill that buff your pawns, I quickly kill a chimera, orge and golum in a minute while I'm still level 37
Trickster would be -good- better if the game was multiplayer.
I disagree. I love the trickster. I love kiting mobs around. Powering up my team. Keeps people alive a lot longer. You can take one enemy and get every other enemy to attack it, and then move on to the next enemy, letting them all pick each other off. Solo they suck, but in the group, with dps, and my trickster kitting the mobs around, all easy work and pretty fun
"Only 40 hours of gameplay" truly a gamer moment
To be fair, in this game if you are exploring everything and trying out all classes with different builds and replaying to see different outcomes of quests 40 is nothing.
@@JLG35X and that's why it hurts when you start new game. Oooh 100h down the drain, of sorts. Could be just me problem though, not evolved enough. Funnily I have multiple +40hours of BG3 saves total to 600 and I haven't even finished the damn thing.
@@gamerdweebentertainment1616 I mean, NG+ lets you keep your gear and skills and well, almost everything.
@@JLG35X Lack of challenge, if you beat it once. Currently on NG+ I think I've seen everything, but I have few theories to still look into. So NG++ away too for a bit.
@@gamerdweebentertainment1616 In New Game Plus, you can get to the mission where you talk to Ambrosius in about 2 hours if you know where to go and what to do. A Griffin can take you their nest for an early Sphinx playthrough too in less than an hour since the start of the run. In fact, 3 hours in, you can have a Portcrystal placed in every critical area of the game; one for Medusa farming, one for Volcanic island, one for each of the Sphinx's location, one for Bakbattahl and the last one for Dragonforged trading and even then you'll have plenty of time to beat the game in about 4 hours or less. New Game Plus is definitely balanced around you farming Ferrystones in the Unmoored world, so that you can consistently beat the game, or at least reach the end-game in about 3 to 4 hours, so it's not like you have to play it all over again.
I see Shadowcute I like ❤
I kidnap her later and make her fight a dragon... it doesn't go well :O
OMG babe wake up best two BG3 content creators are interacting, hell yeah!
Also great vid so far @Fracture.Gaming, I love some DD2! Keep up the great work!
Sit on me
This felt like one of those times when your two favourite cartoons had a crossover episode
Shadowfeet*
“Play this vocation, that does zero damage, and makes monsters jump into rivers for zero materials”
When the trickster vocation is a tavern brawler in disguise
a secret way to deal the most damage as a solo trickster is to unequip your censer and punching it to death. its far better than tomes and even throwing, for future runs keep your fists in mind.
the unmoored world can definitely be beaten with tricky punches as a solo trickster
I remember using this tactic with unarmed rings back in the orignal DD when I confronted golems with my sorcerer.
@@grantsamson2384I miss my bloody knuckles
Ring of brawn is the bloody knuckle of this game for now. Needs to be under 10 kg for maximum boost.
Someone tested it with the damage number mod and his unarmed went from 300 to 590 with 2 rings.
ah yes the hidden monk class
But doesn't unequipping your weapon disable the use of skills? Kind of defeats the purpose of using the vocation, right?
You didn't become a trickster you became a Goblin Thrower !
That's just another illusion of his

Probably need AI for that
I just want to see a video game character sleep *underneath* a blanket
"little by little I was developing my combat strategy"
A strategy that shall be referred to as the 'yeetus deletus'.
You missed that you can pick up the ultimate skill for trickster the moment you find the oracle :)
The ultimate does stagger damage to large monsters....pretty handy in dragon fights to cancel their big attacks.
Solo that skill is not really much worth it
@@abysswalker3891 It also causes smaller enemies to run in fear if you start getting teamed up on...
It’s actually not stagger damage, it’s a Fear effect and different enemies are coded to react to Fear differently.
@@toodleselnoodos6738 On bosses it does stagger. Source: Me solo spammin it on cyclops/ogres
@abysswalker3891 it can stop dragons from casting
I especially like how you trapped Disa in your sealing phial and tossed her at the dragon. That was original thinking
You sir, are a masochist.
"I only have a corpse."
"Hey, I am not dead."
"Yet...."
Your patience for these runs are truly unheard of. Another banger video!
The Maester ability has another use actually. While it does make them run away, it also makes them stop whatever action they are doing. It also work on Wyverns, so say someone is casting a spell, it interrupts them.
400+ hours later. I see this guy avoiding literally everything in this game.
Amazing congratulations on your play thru bro💯
I am crying that you did not get the maister skill when you were there the first time
This was very impressive to watch ❤
Absolutely inspiring!
It’s my favorite vocation and I want to do one of these too!
I remember losing all my pawns once and had to survive as a solo Trickster…which actually went well!
Edit: To add, Fickle Floor can trip enemies making it a little easier to chuck enemies around.
The main problem that I have with trickster is that luring enemies off cliffs/into water is a great strategy….but then how do you loot them?
Well, I would assume you can only do that if you can get to the bottom of the cliff which even if your health bar reaches zero, if you're fast enough you can full heal like you used a wakestone I believe
@@idkidk7606i dont think that works on fee all damage
You dont. I started playing the class when i no longer cared for or needed the loot. But unless you are playing solo trickster your pawns can kill everything no problem.
@@idkidk7606 Does not work when enemy dies to Brine
@@JLG35X I am a hoarder. I must pick up everything. I cannot let an enemy go unlooted. Especially a boss one.
Amazing video and commitment as always ❤❤❤
Impressive! I feel there’s a really great class lurking within the trickster, but it’s not quite there. The trouble is that even some minor tweaks could make it overpowered.
Great video, thoroughly enjoyed! :D
I was waiting for a video like this!
I was almost in tears laughing so hard when you put Ulrika into the bed XD
In future if you don't want a challenge run but just pure silliness, try a 4 sorcerer run. Being able to cast 4 spells quickly at the same time is a "Blast" 😉
Beautiful video & thanks!! so much!! for showing us how to play this class... 5 minutes into this class I was like man!!.. what the hack am I doing lol
Wow! I applaud your time in effort in pulling this off.
Amazingly well done, I gotta say!
Dude absolutely incredible Trickster is definitely really good with the right pawn set up but you definitely brought it on a whole nother level buy beatting DD2 with just the trickster 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
The Trickster sounds like it should be a pawn vocation. Especially since I feel that the Pawns don’t get enough vocations.
Pawn AI doesn’t seem smart enough to use Trickster effectively.
Thanks for this! I kept wondering if solo trickster is possible. While I probably won't end up playing the vocation at all, I always like to see "bad" classes succeed. I hope it does get buffed though.
The persistence of some of the monsters or bandits in DD2 when they pursue the player is astounding. But I have to say, what happened to you with those bandits at around 7:40 is really hilarious...
lmao, outstanding work, I salute your perseverance
For anyone curious, You can duplicate finder's tokens at the Checkpoint Rest town
Humans can multiply infinitly.
Add a medusa.
Infinite stone.
Quartermarster cheesed the game.
Bro, don’t worry about the character creation. You did pretty good. better than I could.😎👍👍
Ive been waiting for a video like this
Trickster with the Pawn buffs from magic archer augments and pawns who have knowledge badges for enemies can turn pawns into wreaking machines. Thief and either double sorc and sorc mage turns everything into dust. The aoe taunt + dragon illusion + the buff that makes pawns stronger and unable to die can handle any situation except for one's when you are solo. In that instance, pull out the old meat mittens and do your best Tyson impression.
Have you ever seen the definition of INSANITY?
this one here kek 🤣💀
banger video as always 🤝🏻
That one word tells me you're a fan of typing racial slurs and hidden folders full of loli art. If I'm wrong let me know.
I’ve been waiting for someone to do this
At first I was like, this is gonna be dumb. Well, it was, but I'm glad to have sticked around til the end. The Boss fight was awesome! Truly a playstyle only a Trickster can pull off.
I'm glad this video exists cuz otherwise I would've never actually seen what playing trickster is like.
I've been playing a lot of Trickster. I wouldn't say this is what its playing Trickster like but a way it can be played.
watching this video, makes me want to play trickster, great video
I wasn't sure if I wanted to spoil the game for myself, but endes up watching the video. It's a shame the trickster doesn't have a damage spell, but I applaud your creativity.
Very fun and nice commentary
Also could have bought the crystals from a wandering vendor between nameless village and vernworth
That was impressive! The trickster is a class I think would be so much fun to play if it was tweaked a bit. Hopefully that will come in a future update.
The dragon in Melve can easily be dealt with by running up the tower and using two fully charged ballista attacks on it.
If you manage to kill the dragon while it's still in melve you can easily unlock the meister skill for spearhand along with that same vocation, also you get one of the strongest weapons for spearhand if you loot the body.
Just make sure the dragon is still over walkable land when killing it, I messed up my first time when hitting it with the second ballista shot while it was beginning to fly away over the water and the body fell in the ocean.
I quit out and loaded my last auto save to make sure I I got the kill shot right.
If you want to use the ballista faster without constantly moving it around by yourself I highly suggest having two other pawns with you and spam the help button when you are one the ballista, the two pawns will help turn the ballista while you charge and aim it.
You crazy...and I like it
Killing off the dragon by throwing a jar at him and then hitting it with the censer is absolutely hilarious... you can be proud of yourself !!
That dragon fight with Ulrika is hilarious, you should have tossed her as a weapon too lol
Really fun to watch
Amazing run! How long did it take to do this?
I can't even imagine the frustrations you went through
Well, seeing all the pain you went through, not something I'll try :D
Bro this is literally my playthrough except using pawns and it's amazing, I don't play any of the other classes because it's just too fun
Nice work 👏
No pawns - no dragon covid. Smart.
7:42 Well that Counted as a ASGARDIAN defending you despite you insulting the Mighty Odinson
Yo i love thos content. More dd2! Ibwonder if dd2 dlc will happen
You can rotate the ballista turrets by getting out and pushing them from the sides which you usually don't actually notice because if you have pawns around they will take care of it for you while you shoot
Yeah I had no idea, that would have made things so much easier! Oh well
Surprisingly, I knew the answer to the question before even watching the video.
It was really interesting to watch... Painful but interesting.
You are an absolute mad lad
You sir are amazing
Thank you for doing the impossible.
I skimmed a few comments and didn't see anyone mention this, but... that cyclops at the beginning. The one you hit with the explosive barrel. Instead of throwing the barrel at the cyclops, throw it at the rock formation that's blocking the river when he first bursts onto the scene. Instant kill.
You may have avoided doing that on purpose to prolong the fight, but I see misses like that and just have to say something.
I actually did blow up the rock formation first and he had already moved out of the way, so that kill method just wasn’t meant to be. Maybe if I’d done it a little quicker I could have gotten it
Didnt think i needed to See something other than bg3 from you... but im just fine you doing dd2😂
Before watching the video: How? You need to do damage multiple times. Are you intending to just punch stuff or throw rocks/people at them?
Damn, not gonna lie I was not expecting some of these solutions. GG man.
No punching, yes throwing! And a lot of trickery, especially to beat the final boss.
No need to find a seekers token b4 doing sphinx quest itll just put a finders token next to every seekers token if you havent found a single seekers token yet
I was actually wondering about this but didn’t want to risk it! Thanks :)
@Fracture.Gaming @panicrolling figured it out and did the testing for it I don't want to take credit for it I just wanted to pass the information along all the credit should go to the goat himself lol
very well played
It’s something special about “I let my ghost distract a goblin while I find a rock to throw at it” lmao
If you brought the sorcerer maister guy he could've solo'd the dragon for you no issue, he's hella busted.
31:15 Yes, you can, I wanted him to kill Phaesus so I let him go on, but a cinematic kills him at some point
Thanks for this, I was quite curious!
Now this is quality content LMAO
You didn't get dragons delusion for the trickster? Go back to the temple and climb the ladder on the left. The real Luz is waiting on the roof in the front. When you find her, she gives you dragons delusion. That should help.
This is the first time I learned that you can climb up the Sphinx like that. (on my third playthrough btw)!!
Trickster feel like he was made under the premise that the game will have co op
When I realized that you'd gotten the Trickster vocation without getting the Meister skill while you were there, I felt genuine physical pain.
Yeah I’ve gotten a lot of comments about this. I just wanted to have a natural feeling progression so I could develop a combat strategy. Didn’t realize it was gonna trigger people so much though!!
This was actually engrossing!😳
When I used the walls I only used them a couple of times because it seemed like enemies either ran around them in two seconds or just went through them. I didn't know you could just stand in them and be completely ignore. Not that this makes the trickster suddenly super fun to use. It doesn't really. It still needs some major tweaks if they ever do an Dark Arisen style expansion.
The one quick fight before the fight with you and the dragon ended quickly because your ghost locked on the false arisen
only trickster no pawns? are insane?! 😂 ok a thumbs up only for that
Did this on my first playthrough its actually really fun, you need 2 thieves for this and one mage for support
WHY? Just why CZcams, why you don't notified me? You have only ONE JOB!.
Anyway thank you for the video.
Haha it’s actually my fault on that one. I have too many Baldurs gate fans (love you all) so I turned the notification off for this one to give the video a better chance of being received well. Otherwise the initial analytics it gets are bad because my usual crowd doesn’t click on it or watch it.
In truth idk if this matters or helps, but I decided to try it…
For the fight against the Gigantus, you can chose to do nothing and still win but you can also kill it earlier. I don't know if this affects rewards but it does change things in the unmoored world.
Trickster needs a entire revamp
Oh I thought you meant with Pawns at which point was I like "no it's fine" but without being able to really do damage? Rough stuff.
I remeber I ran into a cave with the poison lizards just suddenly stormed out of the entrance and attack me when I left my crew behind. I got crushed by five lizards and used 4 wake stones trying to trick my way out of it that is the day I ran away from the Trickster forever and started playing Warfarer
you could also pick up an enemy then run towards a wall/tree etc. to do tackle damage.
I feel like trickster should have a core ability where you can loot enemies that have fallen into water. Seeing as that's how to deal with boss monsters.
Loki is throwing Thor in this universe😂
This was well produced, but Trickster is so painful, it still made it hard to watch.
If only the trickster could deal regular weapon damage with the incense, then it would be much better.
Also, it seems to be missing a few things in its kit.
Making yourself more durable would be nice, as well as a way for your pawns to all target a single enemy.
Also, the big dust spread should be a core skill, since the vocation wont work without it.
You turned Dragon's Dogma 2 into Super Mario Brothers 2.
I am impressed by your desire for self punishment 😉
Respect brother 👏😎
Maister mydrin or however you spell his name is apparently the strongest dude in the game and can just wreck buttholes like nothing. Guess he has some quests too where you escort him somewhere but he'll follow you into the final fight.
Can probably cheese the game as a trickster if you use him inappropriately.
A couple of tips:
Use steaks regardless of quality to lure wolf-type enemies so you can kill them easier. Discard the meat and step back. Watch them go for the meat and become immobile. A Rotten version will also poison them.
It is advisable to defeat the giant as quickly as possible. 1. You can prevent the bridge from getting destroyed. 2. Each cyst on the giant that you destroy eliminates a pillar of light that you have to destroy on Unmoored.
