>Beat Satanchia with 3 eyes>Get one piece of Ultimate armor>It's Savan's armor setPeople don't know either if it's one armor as it seems to be a one time thing.
>>749619826Is the game fixed?
>>749619826What does it look like?
>>749619985You can see the stats on the wikihttps://dragonsdogma2.wiki.fextralife.com/Supernal_Armor
>>749620079Does this game have good looking armor sets? Fashion Souls levels of kino?
Redpill me on this game
>>749620403I'd say so. Personally I find the armor in DD to be far more interesting visually than the same european style knight armor jerked off constantly in souls games.
>>749620598It's a blast.
>>749620598Ask chatgpt
Do I start a new character on hard or not?
>>749620717That's what I did.
I think I'm about to reach the Gore version of the ring and never saw any other Ultimate Spoils. I think that's it. I gave it to my pawn.
>>749620769If you're really up for playing the wholeass game again, then yeah. Otherwise just use Hard Mode on an NG+ save and go to the DLC. Equipment matters most anyway and the DLC paces the different tiers of equipment it has through exploration and story progression so you'll still get some challenge out of it.
>>749620990>I think I'm about to reach the Gore version of the ring and never saw any other Ultimate Spoils.Pretty sure it only drops one time as well, per playthrough. Imagine if you had to refight it per cycle to get a different piece?

Ragequit the lost rite with the giga powered minotaur and the rocks falling from the ceiling.I tried so many times to chuck a small rock on its face when its charging but it didn't do shit and he just zips around at lightspeed around the arena one tapping my pawns.Not a fan of DLC addition so far.
just hiked to an elf town in the forestwent to some ruins with an... dunno what monster in it that tried to snatch one of my three female pawnsthinking about recreating my arisenis there ANY difference between male/femaleor height/size?
>>749620769There is very little reason to not use an old character. Hard mode dlc content is scaled for max level characters.
>BRO THEY FIXED THE GAME>look inside>No new vocations, recycled enemies and gacha lootThis is what we're celebrating?
>>749621383That rite really pissed me off.Pretty sure it's designed to constantly do it's charge attack. Best thing to do is get Effortless kill since the parry window is higher and do that.
>>749621279>see game with absurd amount of nigs>notice nigstruly schizophrenic, you're so right, xister.
>>749621437it also added glamours so you can change the appearance of clothes

>>749621437>new skills>new passives>new inclinations>New items
>>749621383Is this an episode of "i'm doing hard mode content designed for level 200 characters at level 20 and it is kicking my ass"?
>>749621465I was playing mystic spearhand. I was thinking of running back to change to warrior to interrupt the charges with big dick sword swings but it would have been a 20min runback. I'm just fuming and upset I think I'm just gonna finish the main story and drop the game as I don't see how bloated enemies with stupid moveset can be any fun in the DLC area.I think it might have been less annoying if getting ragdoll'd gave you iframe like in MH so you didn't get raped in a corner by a charging bull.
HOW DO I HAVE FUN WITH THIS GAME?It's been 6 hours and I swear I've only seen 3 common enemy types between goblins, wolves and harpies. Oh and one cave had the lizard people I guess. Enemy diversity is the worst I've ever seen, somehow even worse than BotW.Between the lack of enemy diversity and the lack of meaningful rewards, I don't feel much of an incentive to explore and get stuff done. Sometimes I just wish I was playing TW3 or Skyrim instead.
>>749621398Weight can have an effect. >heavierCan carry more without burden, meaning they take more to change weight class even when carrying stuff. Climbs slower, but can more easily knock enemies over when shoulder barging/pulling and pinning them>lighterfast stamina regen, cant carry as much without changing weight class which affects ability to move quickly and recover stamina. Can climbs faster.
>>749621130Maybe one day I'll get another one for myself, but meh.
>>749621742Ok so refund and go play those. You dont get it.
>>749619826Ok i changed my difficulty to hard after killing super satan and im a little confused, when i damaged an ice cyclop he instead of losing almost an entire health bar now he loses like a third of his hp when i upward swing his legs, but when i fight the ghost magician isntead of taking half his health bar now i take an entire one with an upward swing... i have a feeling that weapon elements do way more damage than normal diff, im using anti satan damage on my great sword so goatheads also receive way more damage than normal diff, am i full shit or is hard a little weird.Pd: i dont think i can kill super satan in hard, im not good enough, also magick damage is really dangerous in hard.
>>749621742Be less brown
>>749621760so is it generally preferable to be big and bulky for say warrior/fighterand kinda nimble and fast for basically everyone else?
>>749621572Given how many retards on /v/ keep acting like Hard Mode isn't a gear check when it clearly is due to muh 'git gud' mentality, then yeah, probably. Like, I did the trials in the unmoored and nobody told me that either the corrupted beasts quests or being in the Unmoored turns all the trials into corrupted brine variants that have a billion HP. Norgan for example. In the base game on hard, Everfall gear is good enough to tackle BBI. In Norgan on Hard you literally need to get decent relics first before you even decide to fight enemies or just focus on Melee/staggering the fuck out of them since they don't flinch and sponge HP. Once you get relics it's manageable but the difference in base game to Norgan is way higher a jump than base game hard mode to BBI in DDDA.
>>749621823>>749621852No arguments? I'll take that as a concession.
>>749621825What level are you? Also yes elemental weaknesses are powerful now.
>level 19>archer>explosive arrows fuck everything upjesus christ
>>749621854Kindo. Things like warrior and fighter might want to have more stamina for blocking and ability use, and things like thief being heavy means that they are a lot harder to shake off as their stamina doesnt drain as fast when holding.
>>749621878Yes, now fuck off.
>no enemy variety whatsoever>shills can't even defend it
>>749621872BBI gear and DD1 in general was WAY more abusable in terms of stats. Once you get to that point, everything melts in seconds. Using periapts and lvl 3 relic gear fucks up EVERYTHING as any class (besides warrior, it was still ass).
>>749621878Yes I agree anon. Refund the game. Go play Zelda or Witcher 3 as you said..
>>749621437Its an expansion the same way g ranks expansions are for the base mh games, you dont really get anything new but more of the same.
So, Im playing on hard mode and just got to the dlc area. Playing as a magick archer, at first I got my ass handled until I got my gear up to the task. I noticed this spot is pretty good to level up vocations and I started leveling warrior. Any tips for a new warrior?
>>749621997>>749622052You know a game is awful and people defend it just from ritual/stockholm syndrome when they literally can't pose any arguments as for why the game is good or fun.
>>749622093Yes. Refund the game and go play something else. You want an argument over why Witcher 3 or BOTW is better, this game is not for you if thats your metric, go play those games, they exist.
Is 500 RC the limit for how much you can get from 1 pawn hire?
Remember to buy the thing from the guy in the inn in norgan that gives you and your pawn an extra augment slot.
>>749622093How do you explain colors to a blind man?
>>749621973oh i see hmm
i hate random loot so fucking much
>>749622030Yeah, that''s true but it doesn't take away from the fact that the difficulty curve initially is pretty OTT on hard in Norgan. Like, fighting Beorcans is a pain in the ass otherwise.Plus I never realized that magic takes a hit, and you need to hit a stat threshold to deal sufficient damage. Granted I get why, so it can give a sense of progression but it really pissed me off at first, since I didn't get why I did no damage.
>and sponge HPThis phrase has been so utterly misused and butchered by retards it stopped making sense lmao
>>749621884I think im level 220, i didnt pay attention to it enough, at some point i have to level sorcerer and mage to get my magick stats boosted because i did not play those clases at all in this save file, when a little shit shots a tiny little blast of magick at me i feel like im getting shot with 50. Caliber.
>>749622165How do I get twenty ducats? I can barely find them.
>>749622156>>749622175I'm taking this as a concession too.
>>749622093It's not our job to make you like the game you retard, now fuck off
>>749621478This. They're fucking everywhere and most of the notable characters are nigs.
>>749622165More importantlySET YOUR PAWN QUESTLiterally anything is better than nothing, it shows whos paying attention or not.
>>749622164Lmao, no. I've seen anons get 10000+ RC.I don't know how it works though.
>>749622078Hitting enemy during attack to get stun is key, you unlock this perk at like lvl6. Enhanced parry is also very strong. Resist to knockdown is good.
>>749622093You are correct. Now fuck off and ideally never enter a thread again.
>>749621872The upside is that you can easily start the dlc without having to get upgraded endgame gear. Also, the only thing that hard mode changes for bbi is enemy stagger resistance and player stamina consumption.
>>749622224>220Thats pretty high honestly, if youre on PC the only way to bring difficulty backs is with the difficulty tweaks mod where you can just adjust things in game with it, it works well.
>>749622243>>749622283Just to give a glimpse of how stupid you all are, I say in my post that I have been playing for 6 hours, so how am I going to refund it if the limit is 2 hours?
>start DLC on Hard Mode at level 70>end at 600
>>749622223To be fair, you're right. HP sponge isn't accurate, it only seems that way due to how your damage is calculated. If you don't hit a certain threshold you do barely any damage.Still, the average anon isn't going to know that when they start the DLC and get bodied.
how viable is low level DLC ala bitterblack challenge?
>>749622223It's true for the dlc.
>>749622021No one cares to engage with seething freaks. You should be familiar with the concept from how everyone treats you irl.
>>749621572I'm lvl 62 with maxed out gear from the Volcanic Island. Normal mobs and mini bosses get ultra raped. I thought I'd clear the lost rites dungeon before going to the moonglint tower but besides the first 4 starter ones it's not really fun for me to engage with.I genuinely think the game is unbalanced to piss.
>>749621742If you consider playing Skyrim over other games your opinions on anything ever are worthless. Please never talk about anything, you are actively harming humanity by existing, best you can do is get in the closet forever.
>>749622368Levels go beyond 200 in dd2?
>>749622408Do you hate me that much just because I dislike your toy? I bet you are shaking right now kek>>749622428Skyrim is a godtier game and you're a zoomie if you think otherwise.
>>749622376Gear is more important than stats, but you'd probably have to spend time looting level 3 relics from the caves underneath the northern checkpoint before you even bothered trying to fight the enemies since level 1 would cripple your stats.
>>749622078Having a full team of warriors lets you bully enemies really hard, but you will need to carry books to deal with some enemies.
>>749622376Probably extremely rough at first but once you start getting gear I imagine it picks up fast, especially with how much XP everything in there is giving you
>>749622376There used to be an annoying sperg who kept recommending players skip the main game and go straight to BBI using some throwable item you can get easily there but he seemed like a weird sperg so I don't remember what it was.
How are you faggots so strong? I'm level 79 on normal ng+ and I still clench my cheeks hard when a dragon or dullahan appears on screen.
>>749622376Pretty viable, I think. You can just run past the enemies and salvage your initial gear.
>>749622335Levels dont matter at all in the endgame, enemies still do some pretty scary amounts of damage, my pawn has 67% slash resistance and ghouls eat her alive if i dont help her.
>>749622462shhh be silent, my nigga, let the oblivion take your mind, it will be over soon
>>749622479>you'd probably have to spend time looting level 3 relics from the caves underneath the northern checkpointI'm 90% certain that loot level is tied to DLC story progression, the same enemies/locations that gave level 1 gear and only occasionally 2 are now giving 3-4 after progressing a good bit
Wait so the game only has like 3 types of common enemies? No variety at all?
>>749620403Customisation isn't as good as in DD1, but it's still pretty /fa/ overall. Alot of the armor and clothing is very detailed and complex, but not too busy. You get a good mix of utiliarian stuff and silly armor sets, which I guess is Souls-esque.What's nice is the variety of styles. If you have a traditional fantasy archetype in mind, there's something for it.DLC is nice just for comfy winter sets in general, and whilst it's mostly scandi/nordic stuff you might get an Ainu headband thrown in here and there. Lots of variety even with all the skimpy riftsluts.
>>749622369You're right I was just mad at the literal misuse of the phrase from bullet sponge to sponge HP or other times sponge enemies. Fuckers legit don't even try to make a lick of sense. Anyway as far as the contents of the game go then the guy arguing about Everfall gear into BBI was a smoother transition should realize that the trials are probably meant as the new everfall before this dlc region. Or give up and get a weapon in Norgan.
>>749622516The spinny flip move witb dual swords rapes dullahans to death, doubly so with holy enchantment.I play wayfarer since having the right tools makes you stronger than raw stats most times.
>thief>get the ring that gives stamina on hit>do the auto dodge dragonforge halving its stamina consumption>be invincble
>>749622458All the way to 999. But there are stat caps that you'll hit at around level 200, and you don't get anything out of levelling anymore. It's basically just a high score. Sucks though because it makes it harder to find good pawns because of the gigantic level spread.
>>749622574There are 4 size types just like MH.Small (Great Jaggi)Medium (Barroth)Large (Deviljho)Extra Large (Amatsumagatsuchi)
>>749619826I love how the full power final boss just stunlocks me from 100% to 0 health if he ever hits me with anything. Super fun. I did beat him, the fight is just extreme bullshit.
>>749622670Thief is probably the most fun I had in the game
>>749622681So they fucked up matchmaking just like Elden RingFucking retards, I fucking hate leveling systems, nobody gets it right
>>749622735You can set your search level range to whatever you want
>>749622731This really goes to show how garbage the game is.
>>749622570I think it is for basic enemies, since I've gotten level 2 relics now from enemies near the settlement.However certain spots have more fixed loot levels. The Frozen fortress where you fight Fimbl has a chest with level 2 ancient and the caves under the north have level 3 ancient from the searchable loot piles.
Is it true that items have randomized stats now?
>>749621854It's not nearly as important as you think. Just play someone you'll be ok rping/playing as for 100 hours.Chances are you won't stick to one vocation anyways you're more or less intended to try all of them out and level most of them. A medium height character will be good for everything. But if you play a small character it's not so dramatically worse than a tall character for Warrior.
>>749622518Aren't you forced to kill a pack of niggers and their dogs in the opening? Or can you run past them?
Could I make a party that is Frodo, Sam, Legolas and Aragorn?
>>749622789okay that does calm my choice paralysisguess its cute arisen time then
>>749622817very much yes
Aren't they cold?
>>749622338Well then sucks to suck. Let me guess, you knew nothing about DD and just bought it because it was being talked about and assumed it was like fucking BOTW or Witcher3. What exactly do you want people to say, do you want someone to try and convince you that its good when the controls are in your hand and you just dont like it? Noone can force you to like it just because you bought it.Quit the game, go play BOTW. Nothing anyone says is going to help you anon, you just didnt like the game.
>rush to dlc area at lvl10>get dlc pawn>instagib maingameI WIN
>>749622782They have a possible stats range, skill selection and skill tier randomness. Enjoy.
>get to the final final boss>cool design, kinda annoying to fight as warrior>get midway through and hear the selection of fate seneschal fight motif >instantly cream my pantsIt's unbelievable how good of an experience, story-wise and progression-wise the DA content has been compared to the main game, actually peakFor other anons in the post-game, should I just start up another ruin-night and go farm mobs/refight the final final boss right away or what?
>>749622223Enemies do get 20%-30% more hp, i know because i passed from instakilling ghouls as warrior to leaving them with a fraction of hp left.
>>749622619>Anyway as far as the contents of the game go then the guy arguing about Everfall gear into BBI was a smoother transition should realize that the trials are probably meant as the new everfall before this dlc regionI'm that anon who responded.You are correct, except doing the trials in the unmoored made them all far harder and enemies tankier. For example, I did the trials on Hard in the base game and didn't get corrupted brine variants and they died far easier. However, I also think it's because most new enemies naturally tank magic but my magick archer was doing barely any damage to most in the later trials. The Red Dullahan is a tank no matter what, and the Evil Eye tentacles took no damage from my attacks.
>>749622816I thought of that, but I don't think it's forced. You just need to approach the village. The guy does comment on you surviving the ambush before opening the gate, but I doubt that's a requirement. Could be wrong though.
Offering a silent SnuSnu Kween. She doensnt talk much and if you like your pawns to talk less aswell, do her Quest and you get the necessary item. You´re also allowed to lick her sweaty pits if after you slayed some dragoons and shiet.QADOJQPR7NKW she´s a PC masterrace only exclusive
>>749622932Also the trials aren't all pre Norgan.The Seafloor trial requires mats from Norgan to upgrade the Ephemeral Key gear.
>>749622887Norgan rune magic protects their arse, as you can see
shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh /v/ Ilsa is sleeping...
>>749622272I keep getting exactly 500 for each player hiring my pawn and I was wondering if it's some kind of limit.
>>749622932>my magick archerTurned into a support class for the new content. Real dps vocations get way better toys for doing damage.
>Play as Warrior>Big mobs either get stunlocked from 100% to 0 or they spend their entire time grabbing me and ragdolling me around and the fights drag on (no pun intended) foreverSuch a weird class. Sometimes your Shoryuken just lines up perfectly a few times in a row and they can't move. Then other times the boss is like "Psyche, bitch" and the instant you release it they turn 360 degrees and walk away and then grab you when you're recovering.
>>749623061
>>749621478>>749622251Its literally unironically, and I do mean this absolutely unironically and literally, ITS OKAY WHEN CAPCOM DOES ITand there is nothing you can do about it aside keep seething like a buck broken nigger faggot lol.
>>749623094I figured. Once an anon gifted me a level 4 relic archer bow I've never looked back.Spamming Myriad shot is fun. In fact, archer is general never gets tiring.
>>749623050YE PAWN CHUCKIN'
>>749622516I played up to the final boss in the base at around level 50 something, then went to Norgan and got some sweet loot. I did kill a dragon before getting said loot. I was playing Warrior at the time and I just kept uppercutting his heart until he fell over then I gave him a lash to the head. Repeat until dead.
>no sales numbers announcement ooof, that's it then for the major franchise....
>>749623113Sounds like you need to read enemies better to land your attacks like many other capcom games fearuring a huge sword.
Is anything in the DLC missable?
>>749623113I can't fucking stand how long it takes your character to recover from getting hit in this game. I feel like I could go make myself a sandwich by the time I get to control my character again.
>>749620403Sure but I wouldn't play it for that reason.
The animation speedup mod is insane
>>749623113For me it's they refuse to approach me and keep hopping away or one tap throws them into the horizon and all my pawns chase them.I spend the entire fight just trying to get close so I swapped to wayfarer with daggers and use those to close the distance now.
>>749622251So? Go be racist piece of shit somewhere else.
>>749622538The part where you said youre taking entire health bars off in a single swing is the part where Im saying stats play more a part, Im locked at 100 and dont see anything like that, like perhaps the only reason your pawn is getting damaged at all is because you didnt level them in the class that gives them defence stats.
>>749622228There's an augment for the trickster that makes them glow and give a sound when you're nearby.
>>749623174holy cope lmao
>>749623187I doubt it. You have to remember that DD has cumulatively sold a lot. And DD2 is up to half of DD's sales despite being out for far less. The main concern is whether or not Capcom wants to keep shafting the budget and actually dedicate a significant portion of dev time. DD2 suffered from a poor release, if it had done as well as DDDA 1 on release it would've seen even better numbers.
The new slow skill for Magick Archer is broken as fuck, not a fun combat style imo but you can put any boss on stasis forever
>>749623281>seething nigcelkek
>>749622228lmao, there were like 5 in the starting village alone
>Riftstone of the Beloved>only pawns with high ratings will appear!>rift is full of CAPCOM abominations with fake ass 300+ ratingslmao
>>749622063Cope DDtroonGRanks are basically a whole new game worth of content
>>749623390Twas here of all places
>>749623364Wait till you get "knockout" on a bow and just machine gun fire them to put them unconcious multiple times a fight. I dont mind stuff like this, its a single player game, I just make differnet builds and use whatever I have fun with, not whatever has me in competition with other players clear time.
>>749623196Maybe. Sidequests that seem like they should be timed, don't get an timer icon. Some of them do influence story quests in a minor way, I'd imagine you can miss out on these little bonus parts, if done too late.
>'T-Trickster is l-le bad!'>Can use it to easily kill Satan with clone and Gliding Guaze and spam grimoires Aggro truly is OP.
>>749623426Dark Arisen 2 is massive, after Shadow of the Erdtree this is easily the second best expansion ever made.
>>749619826So those kids in the Norgan Settlement are part human, part beastren, and part dwarf? Is there an elf in their family tree too?
>>749623113you are skipping recovery frames with shoulder bash, right?
>>749623357Cope your shit game flopped lmao
>>749623410Yea the capcom pawns should not be in the main pool, seems its for offline people but most retards took them simple because they saw they have better gear and the quest leader trait than most players but didnt see the owner was Capcom, so anything given to them is given to noone. All those wasted carries.
>>749622720Its a fight you really have to learn, the best thing you can do its only engage with him from behind, his little touches do severe amounts of stagger.
>>749623565Shadow of the Turdtree has shitty bosses though. Oh look, a final boss that requires me to roll each nanosecond with perfect timing while I spam AOE lasers.
It is weird how much the new Warrior cleave move fucking sucks until you get the level 3 version from items then it absolutely rapes.
>>749623384Keep crying about Black people in videogames lol
>>749623627git gud

Dont worry, 90% of the world is retarded and forgets to set it after the first time its completed and get sad when they see their pawn is barely being taken, not realizing they havent set the quest for them to do.I also use the menu for healing, I dont even know why anymore
>>749621884>nowto be fair, in the base game Drake's died to ice, griffins exploded with anything fire related, ect.
Post physics kino
>>749623809In DD1, yeah, nothingburger of a fight thoughDD2's final boss? No, but also, maybe in a sense. It's a metaphorical sorta boss.
>>749623796Brother I fought Fimbl for 40 minutes and most of that was scrolling menus.It's like playing FF7 on PS1.
>>749623752It has Black Kings and Black Queens.
>>749623753it only gets this much flak here cause its actually an absolute blast. it being one of the /v bros favorite games ever makes it easy to be used as shitposting fuel. Why do you think DD2 gets multiple threads a day every day for over 2 years now? definitely not because its hated.
What skill loadout do you guys use for Warrior?
>>749623812>Arisen I have 20 less HP from levels than main pawn you have to let me go

>>749621884>Also yes elemental weaknesses are powerful now.Elemental pact makes the affinity spells actually worth using now, because it cuts the downtime mages spent individually buffing the team and frees up their action economy to do other things. I wouldn't say they're essential, though, because the weapon powercreep is so massive that you'll be blowing chunks off healthbars the moment you get a tier 4 weapon, or a tier 3 with a really good DPS skill.
Can I get a QRD on the DLC?I loved the base game, but I heard the DLC is a loot-grind game and I kinda hate that shit.Also, is the hard mode any good?
>>749623927Kek
>>749623753/v/ had a meltdown when the sequel was announced and some anon gifted 3 anons the DLC for free in one thread.
>>749622914Are you wearing the Ring of Virtue?remember to do so whenever fighting the true final boss; the ring levels up after ''x'' amounts of kills.having multiple tiers of upgrades.

>>749624015To be fair, you have to have a really IQ to play as Trickster.
>>749624059people are retardedthe dlc is fantastic and a tremendous leap compared to base gamethe loot is random similar to BBI
>>749624035thats pertains to this place as a whole and not just /v. the internet has died a long time ago and it was obama who did it, that faggot.now is mostly bots farming engagement.
>>749623932blood pact, arc and heavenward is all I need.
>>749623769You can fight the sphinx. You also forgot minotaur, golem, medusa and chimera.
>>749623932All I need is the dragon punch and lunge, everything else is a bonus.>>749624059Have you played DDDA1? The DLC loot gear is just like BBI's gear. You gather a bunch of spoils from enemies, chests, the ground, etc and bring it back to an old lady to identify.
>>749624096Nope, I saw it early on but had completely forgotten about that by now since I'm saving up for the slutty fishnets, thanks anon
>>749623646>capitalizing blackLMAO, pottery.

>>749623753Because they hate Black people.
>>749623113Warrior is the most rewarding, but also the most frustrating vocation to play. If you fuck up, you really feel it due to slow attacks and even slower recovery. However if thing do work out, you are not only deleting health bars, you are ramming giants monsters into the ground and send the little ones flying. It's fucking awesome. I am personally also really fond of the combo slash (core-) skill. Swinging that giant sword like I'm the motherfucking fist of the north star Jesus Christ

Did any of the patches rebalance the Augments? I remember at launch all offensive augments were dogshit like flat +30 Strength/Magik, while all defensive ones were godlike with +30% multipliers.
>>749624315Do you think /pol/ raiders care about that?
the expansion has been great time so far but the barrier to entry on a new file is immense, there's so much shit you gotta do to get the empowered godsbane
>>749624059You get Relic-Weapons with really satisfying upgraded skills, not just stats wise, but they at times function diff as well.You dont have to farm at all really to already get started with a bunch of these, and they're really cheap in terms of rift crystals to appraise.Furthermore, Relic weapons cannot be upgraded, so there is no grind in that sense. The real ''farm'' starts at the dlc's endgame, which all about getting those god rolls; relics with the most ideal selection of skills attuned.

>>749620403No, they decided having less options was better, most armor only looks good with it's own set, clothing/leather is easier to mix but ultimately it's disappointing that they went this way, they didn't even port all the armors even though they were just straight up copying them.
>>749624494It's just there for death
>>749624317>ayoooo ‘risen! lmao, you faggots cant comprehend nuance. you view capcom making black characters as being the same as western faggots pushing globohomo faggot propaganda. there is no use explaining to you why its okay when capcom does because you and your xisters are mentally ill buck broken nigger faggots,spiritually jewish parasites.also, does this chest piece make my arisen look ghey?

>>749622278Thank you. When should I use the class action button (default R in the controller)? Is it for positioning?
>>749624569Starting to see some more interesting pawns the higher I get as people get the transmog unlock. Theres armours I didnt even know were in the game.

>>749623753Ongoing organized discord raid against this game, has been ongoing since it came out in 2024 and is renewed due to DLC
>>749623753Because it released even more blatantly unfinished than the first game and ran like shit on all platforms
>>749624569How the hell do they get so many likes.
>>749624802Well Deserved
>>749624802I never got this point, DD is ''progressive'' just like Monster Hunter ( wilds especially ) ..and yet Resident Evil has only blonde white waifu's these days and i've never heard about troons targeting ReS series.
>>749625003people just want titties, i didn't even get double digits on my old man mentor pawn
>>749625084Sad.
>>749625003Notice how this slutpawn has a pawn-quest which rewards 5x All Heals? that's one of the main methods of getting hired in the rift. ( could be anything, just something valuable such as rare monster materials )
>>749625062Because RE panders to them
Whats my pawn gonna be like to get acquired a lot?
>>749625205Yeah i just saw that, i only give 10k gold because i really have nothing better to offer, i do use my all heal elixirs.
>>749625257Tall black amazon called Ooga Snooga
>>749624724There's a particular riftslut armor from an Unmoored Lost Rite that is high stonks at the moment.I'm just enjoying having my Witch Hat back and on a Mage too.>>749625257Make an Archer Pawn with the skills that use Blight and Explosive arrows and you'll probably get some hits, especially if you advertise on /ddg/. Archer is the pawn meta for DLC especially if you're abusing the arrows.If it's a remotely amusing character, or just a cool looking dude, then that's fine.
>>749624696I find shoulder tackle is mostly for canceling out of mistimed attacks or long recovery animations. Reposition too, if it helps, but it's kind of too short for that.

You did get platinum whorehouse card for floor 3 whore access, right anon?
>>749624569This has to be a modded armor set, yes?

>>749625768base game clothing, devs very much know their audience
why's everyone hiring simple pawns now
>>749625768Maybe? I have never seen those horns in the base game and i have yet to see it in the dlc, but i guess its a super satan reward for killing him yet again for the bazillion time.
I don't understand the true ending (of base game)
Why can't British boys stop kissing each other?
>>749619826Man I really like dragons dogma but I hate modern crapcom with all their dei stancesFuck them I'm gonna pirate this shit but first I'm gonna wait for the unpozz mod to get updatedI don't mind the skin color but why fucking make all the ugly characters manI'm all up for some sexy niggies
>use barber to change arisens appeareance>cant change to human from beastren?????
>>749625937You live in matrix, now go and play the monkey for my entertainment, that's it.
>>749619534it's the true Dragon's Dogma
WHY THE FUCK CAN I NOT CHANGE MY ARISENS RACE HOLY SHIT WHAT THE FFFFFFFFUCK
Is the nigga who made this pawn ITT?
>>749625937I think the arisen stops the pathfinder from controling the world but dies in the procces with him making the arisen reincarnate in another world, the pawn is aware of this but only has one line of dialogue mentioning it.
>>749624315He's boring as shit compared to Mason and doesn't have a single interesting scene
>>749625937The Will of the world isn't sustained by the Seneschal but by the Arisen fighting the dragon. Breaking the cycle in the way you have done means no more Dragon or Arisen, which is why the unmoored happens. Turns out without that, the world has no will to sustain itself. Also the Brine getting propelled into the air as red fog. You kill pathfinder sama to start afresh. A world not beholden to the cycle....or so it seems. We don't get much insight on what killing him or temporarily destroying him actually did.
>>749626016Well yeah, he's a barber not a geneticist.
>>749626115surely theres a mod for that. I just changed my pawn's name with a mod last night.
Just beat Death and the enhanced final boss with Magick Archer. I thought the class was complete shit in the DLC, but now at endgame it's actually extremely strong. The new slow debuff arrow and the new meister skill are absolutely amazing and should be on every single loadout.
>>749625937 DD2 story and world is fictionland like a play or storybook. The Hero needs to slay the Dragon to stave off oblivion by making the world “worth chronicling”. By refusing to be the hero and preventing the dragon from embodying evil, you doomed the world to destruction via abandonment from an outside observer that would give the world meaning and give it a reason to exist. In the end the Pathfinder allows himself to become a new Dragon (evil), and the world is saved from destruction as you slay him, allowing the fictional world to continue to exist without an observer.At least that was my interpretation.
game now keeps crashing after 2 minutes.......
>>749626289I still cant kill death, motherfucker wont stop deleting my pawns.
Anybody have Menella's sliders ? Wanna make a cool beastren female but I cant be ass to make one this time
can i not use the other vocations' maister skills as the warfarer?
>>749626502If you want an easy way to beat him, just use MA and use the slow arrow, he borderline stands still the entire fight. I think he only swung his scythe 2, maybe 3 times before I killed him. He drops 9 of those orbs you use to fight the stronger version of the final boss.
Are the physics good or are they jankslop kino, kinda like Dark Messiah?
>>749626810No, that's the main drawback of the class. Otherwise it would be broken.
>>749626874yeah. you're right about that, it's op as is
HAS NO ONE PLAYED THE SWITCH 2 PORT HERE?!I want to know if it runs and looks like complete shit
>Troondragshit Slopsoyma 2No thanks, I'm not gay or trans.
>>749622369Isn't this literally how it worked in DD1?
>>749626270>>749626276mod saved mei should have never trusted an AI
how do i get the dwarf to smith for me again? i brought him to the spa and then what?
>>749626856They're goodslop kino
>>749627020It's okay when Capcom does it
>>749623812The Level 135 Mage Pawn I hired ages ago somehow has never said this to me (I'm currently level 205)
>>749627063Yeah, but the threshold is a lot higher a requirement. I don't remember DDDA BBI Hard mode having you deal no damage with Everfall gear at a decent level.
>>749627170When you walk away from the spa, his FUCK elf should jumpscare you. This unlocks MA and dwarven smithing.
>>749627170nevermind that. i didn't see him, because he is so small
>>749625937The Brine (Chaos, Entropy) is threatening to destroy this world and any other world it is in.Only thing that can prevent this from happening, as Great Will sees it, is giving a purpose to the world, through creating a narrative (Order). Pathfinder is a story editor, there to make sure it's repeated over & over, every age to keep Brine at bay under the sea. This is bad because everything is preordained, no one has free will. Represented physically and symbolically by inability to travel waters, as brine eats them. This wasn't always the case, evident by broken lighthouses and beached boats.In true ending, our Arsine's will is so strong that it can not only defeat the Dragon and sustain the story, but break the cycle and defeat the Brine once and for all. Our will is so powerful that over the course of the game even our Pawn, the creation of Pathfinder magic and bound by rules, manages to break out and become free will human. Our character dies, new world is created based on our memories and what we love (characters you saved that appear in ending cutscene). The cycle is gone and Brine too, as we see old dragonforged man sail on a boat safely. Only our Pawn and mb loved one remembers us.
>>749627353Most classes couldn't do jack shit to enemies past part one.
The only classes I find fun are sorcerer and trickster.magick archer would be fun but the controls suck ass (at least for controller. mage would be fun but you can't aim anodyne.
>>749627353I remember my first fight with Daimon using Dragon/Everfall gear taking absolutely forever. Second time when I fought him with a level 3 Bitterblack Isle weapon (plus stacking magic rebalancer) both of his forms went down in a couple of minutes total.
I'm like level 40 and still have a lot to do before I go to battahl or even pass the checkpoint. But I really wanna play trickster. What is the best way to get past checkpoint town that doesn't like, sequence break any quests or force me into any events. I just wanna go past, run to where the unlock is, and ferrystone back to vermund. Just and in out no new quests, no new anything. I beat the game on release but I don't remember much. For some reason I just imagine that once you go past the border it probably triggers new dialogue for people or if I haven't done a quest yet it might fuck it up or anything like that you know
>>749627385Uh, the brine IS the pathfinder/will.It even saves you in Dark Arisen 2.
>>749626243SMTVV did something super similar. Satan mentions that while you may have freed the world from the cycle, you've only really freed one single world. There are countless other worlds still stuck in the perpetual cycle of death and rebirth.
Never played these games and I'm about to download 2 Arisen. Would I regret making a ranger for my first playthrough?
>>749627575You can get into Batahl illegally using a carriage that travels through the gate, which is the easiest way and puts you close to where the trickster npc is. There's two alternate paths but they're hard and take longer to get to where you need to be. Look up a video on how to do the carriage trick.
>>749627575Going past the border early triggers nothing. You can just wait for one of those special carts to come and ride inside it past the gate. You can also take the mountain shrine route that you get to by following the river that goes past checkpoint rest town.
>>749627716There's no ranger I'm afraid
>>749627575Wait for a fancy cart to come near the checkpoint gates, get in, boom you are in catland.Or use two side paths full of Adventure - one along the river west of checkpoint, one east along the coast.Or get on Sphinx when she flies away first time.
>>749627575go to checkpoint rest town. rest till morning. go to the bench and doze off 1 time. go to the bridge outside checkpoint rest town and hop in the cart. the game has really shitty pop in so don't assume it's missing, let it load in.
>>749627716You can always switch to something else if you don't like it.
I LOVE MY PAWN SO MUCHI WANT TO DICK HER DOWN AS THANKS
>>749627778Wtf u mean. I just made one in the demo.
>>749627426>>749627525Yeah and my point is that even the first enemies take no damage on Hard without decent relic gear, like Beorcans take chip damage. Later parts of the dungeon? Sure, but you can get BBI Level 2 weapons and armor earlier. Plus rings for Brain splitter ect.
>>749627846>still no marriage with your pawnIt's over. Kinoshita failed to deliver.
>>749627846Why would anyone actually fall in love with a pawn? They're literal mindless automatons. It would be like fucking a chat GPT android.
>>749627778Archer is Ranger but less stabby and more Rangey
A fucking white ogre just stole my shit
>>749628001Going on adventures really helps endure you to someone
>>749628001>They're literal mindless automatons. It would be like fucking a chat GPT android>you wouldn't fuck an android
>>749628001They were more Android like in DD1 than DD2. In this version they generally have more personality.
>>749624515Simplifying the armor system is one of the things in the game I'm disappointed with. Shit removes a lot of options for playing around with gear. One of my favorite armor combinations in DD1 was playing as a fighter/warrior was shit like a surcoat over an iron vest with chainmail pants, the idea being wearing a layer of heavier armor under a layer of lighter armor. Should have kept the old armor system and added more clothing and armor so you could play around with different combinations.Also feels like playing dress up with your pawns ought to be a more vital element. Basically trying to make your pawn look as cool/sexy as possible to make it stand out more from other pawns. Kind of goes out the window when your options for gear combinations ends up significantly limited.
>>749628045Don't you mean black?
>>749628001Pawns develop a Will of their own as time goes on
>>749627895You can't reliably get rings and level 2 weapons until part three. Googling what chests need to be savescummed does not count.
Is Pawn NTR a thing?
>>749627369man, i wish i had a racist elven mom gf
>>749628135Dragons can literally mind control your pawn so yes
>>749628079Personally I miss being able to Dragonforge and upgrade capes and clothing Remember when Legend's Mantle gave you negative debilitation resistance? Then you upgrade and dragonforge it and it does the opposite.
>>749628079eh, most people go for girl pawns anywaysthat being said my old man mentor pawn gets hired every once in a while but he's just a basic healer/buffer
Are there any other games like Dragons Dogma?
>>749628106I'm in Norgan so no
>>749628130You can't, but you still can if lucky and if you grind the earlier drops just out of desire to get something. I remember just farming for that reason. Plus, you can really say that about anything in DD, that most of the difficulty comes from knowing how to play. Anyway, we're getting off the point. My main point is that it's easier to contend with the earlier threats in BBI even in Hard, where as Norgan Hard mode threats early on require far more stats to push over in the reasonable damage threshold.
>>749628218Its not that like DD, but in terms of big adventure Enshrouded 1.0 is in two days.
>>749628218*Dragon's Dogma
>>749623061spurt spuuuurt
>>749627339Perhaps it is a trait of the Kindhearted personality.
>>749628218No, which is why I don't understand why Capcom gave less budget to DD2. DD1's sales should've convinced them.
>>749628332The new Wand attacks do look fun.
>>749623752he is the captain of the royal guard
>>749628218Not really since it's a mix of ideas. Monster Hunter is similar for fighting big monsters. You have to bring them down to do good damage. No pawns or open world, mission based instead. Vaguely similar gear upgrade/crafting system.
>>749628458My preferred way of playing is to configure all the controls and settings to turn the game into Dark Souls.
>>749628384People forget that DD1 was a MTX addled hyperflop and only got salvaged since the PC port was successful. The only thing it convinced them was that PC ports aren't a bad idea.
>>749619826Looks pretty good but I'm sticking with the silvermail
>>749628001>They're literal mindless automatons.Okay, you fucking filthy khahjiit. I'm gonna deliberately bring a pawn to dragonsplague to Bakbatthal and obliterate your fucking sham of a city.
>>749628573>People forget that DD1 was a MTX addled hyperflop and only got salvaged since the PC port was successfulIf the core game wasn't good though, it doesn't matter. PC port may have kept it alive, but on PC it was also cheap with the DLC and the only game of it's kind.I wouldn't say it flopped even pre PC. But you are right a lot of sales did come from PC.
How do you respond without sounding mad?
I like the wolf companion, but other than moral support, does she do anything? I'm already a loot goblin that loves scouring every nook and cranny, so I don't really see a point to her leading me around.
>>749628880>I think YOU need to ser wash your mouth with soap!
>set my pawns to go loot>now I have 4 fucking inventories to manageIs there like an...auto or mass group deposit or anything like that?
>>749628880Who's this unc? *licks teeth*
Why does my Sorcerer Pawn keep fucking grabbing onto enemies? Is it because I have her as Straightforward? Should I make her Calm?
>>749629053Doesn't that change their voice?
which one of you did this? his voice is like a squeeky cartoon rat's. lmao
what *exactly* causes the ring to level up? I just fought goatboy for the 2nd time and it didn't level up. do I have to do more of those fucking vortexes to make him harder?
>>749629214>CottonFarmer K E K E K
>>749629409>>749624096
>>749629409It requires more kills the more it levels.I heard 15 at one point.
>how do make the final boss hard?>"uhhhhh idk just make him teleport around">the wights already do that>"then make him teleport even more than they do, and faster!>yes kinoshit, right away senpai
>>749629409you have to kill him a lotwear it for 50 kills and tell let us know if it's maxed yet
This fucking game, I swear.
15 kills of this painfully unfun faggot just for a single upgrade? what exactly is the benefit of the ring in the first place? so far it looks like goatboy is the only one who can drop tier 5 gear, and if what this thread says is true, 1 (count em, one) drop of that fugly armor per playthrough. welp, time to go see if there's a mod to spawn in gear. i couldn't give 2 fucks about fighting this thing just for a chance at more useless gacha loot that I just sell and add to my 2 mil+ gold that also has no purpose because gold is a joke in this game
>>749629607His training is really paying off!
I bought the expensive edition of this when it released and you're telling me the DLC didn't come with it? I am outraged.
>>749629607>Isla are you alright? >Wait's it's a girl?>'HEE HEE SHAMONA'>Moonwalks away
>>749629626The ring increases the drop rate. So either way, it allows you to get T5 relics easier.
>>749628384DD1 didn't get popular until years after release with Arisen and cheap PC sales, that is when people realized it is peak jankslop kino.
Can I be Guts from Berserk? Oversized Dragon Slayer and all?
>>749629607There's the jank we know and love.
Do I need to beat the game to get into the DLC area? My most recently playthrough is only 70% or so through the game.
>>749629981No, just talk to Brant
Bros what spells do I put on my sorcerer pawn so they actually do something?
>>749629482>>"uhhhhh idk just make him teleport around"That's like Capcom's answer to anything.
>>749628384People always talk about DD games' budgets but I've never seen actual numbers that aren't some anon simply making claims and I bet I never will
>Get Swift Strike II on a sword>Charges feel like twice as fastman, I can only imagine what Swift Strike III is like
>>749629945Dragon's dogma 1 literally had Guts and Griffith armor for the ps3 version.You can probably mod them back in.
>>749629607the wind is pushing him
>>749629969It's ceetainly not Dragon's Dogma without physics jank and pawns being idiots.>>749629667>>749629732>>749630256Lol
>race changer modDoes race changing from beastren to human through a mod break things?
>>749628001Pawns gain a sense of humanity the longer they explore with their arisen. They can never achieve real humanity though unless you specifically wish for it to the Dragon
>>749629969I wish more games would let physics be a emergent part of the core gameplay like DD2. It is endlessly fun to fight even the same enemies because of this
>>749630197Warrior? Near instant. There is also Swift Strike max which has a little triangle icon next to it.
What's the armor that looks like The Dark Lord Sauron's?
>>749630142Anon, you will never see the budget of most video games unless it's a major tortanic flop like Concord.
>dat feel when Blood Pact
>>749630113No, it's just 1 for the first upgrade, then like 4 for the next. Not sure how many after that. The 3 red vortexes that unlock after the first clear give level 5 gear too, which gives you Morbid Glares that empowers him for more drops for when you do clear him, and sometimes Death can show up to give more, and you can get extra Glares from the extra hard vortex where the Fallen Dragon is. You get a lot of level 5 gear each go, even without an upgraded ring, more than enough to tire you out unless you're the supreme grinding autist the maxed out ring is designed for.
>>749630651Then maybe people shouldn't talk like they know what a game's budget is if they have no proof, right?
is there any point in doing anything with the wolf pets? seems like it just leads you to a generic chest, I did it a few times but now that I'm farming satan, am I missing out on anything by not having used the wolf more than twice?
>>749620403Not really. I haven’t gotten to see the DLC stuff yet but most of the game’s fashion is kind of lame except for women. Though Trickster gets some cool outfits.
How would you describe the open world exploration of this game? Detailed and lived in like Skyrim, with POIs and different towns and cities? Or empty and kind of a barren wasteland like BotW/TotK?
>>749630717>People shouldn't make judgements based on informationI bet if a Nigger with a gun was in an alley snorting coke and heroin, you'd ask for the time? I mean, you have no objective evidence, right they're gonna do anytthing, right?
>>749630756It's just a way to get extra spoils while exploring. They're just as randomized so there's nothing you're specifically missing. Half the reason it exists is so they could put "you can put the dog" in the marketing.
>>749630142People are mostly just guessing, but the indicator that DD2 had no budget is in the marketing.Almost every Capcom game got some big spot at a games show or VGA or whatever, but DD was always these modestly edited trailers dropped into the middle of a show with no fanfare. The DLC announcement was in a fucking Nintendo Direct, nobody saw that coming at all. Capcom basically never promoted it.Low marketing = low risk approach = low budget
>Deviant battle garbThey're deviant alright
>>749630756Don't think so. I saw a loading screen tip that it will start fighting with you in battle if it trusts you enough, so I tried running around with it, but it gets pissy if you're not following it to the one relic it wants to show you so it just feels like a waste of time rather than a bonus to your relic hunting. Feels like an idea they had at the start of development where maybe they had it so that relics were harder to get, but that didn't work out and now relics aren't hard to find at all.
Ive replayed the whole game the last few days since the dlc on hard mode, I'm currently at like 51 and right before unmoored world, just wrapping up a couple quests Ive done like 2 or 3 of the grotto things, should I go clear those out before I go to Norgan? Should i do unmoored world and go to the dlc on ng+? theres still no ng+ scaling right? i heard unmoored world has 3 of the dlc caves in it, my original plan was to stop right before unmoored world, do all the caves, go to dlc, do it, then come back, and finish up but I imagine the unmoored world will be way too easy by that point?
>>749630886It's an unproven franchise. You gotta remember Capcom is one of very few developers know for their long term consistency with franchises. Resident Evil, Monster Hunter, even DMC have been proven successful franchises with loyal playerbases. DD1 is incredibly niche. The fact it even got a sequel is shocking in my opinion. DD1 wasn't even popular until years after release when it spread through word of mouth by ARPG fans.
>>749631005Only do the Trials that don't have requirements and save the rest for when you have DLC equipment. You're going to feel very homicidal towards the devs if you do the others.
>>749630832Kind of in-between.
>>749631107Just tell the anon to git gud when he dies to the clearly stat gated enemies like everyone else.
>nigga has been salty about "git gud" for 3 days now. Feels like the good old Demon Souls days.
>>749630683>Blood Pact>Arc of Might>Celestial Paean activeI haven't yet tried that ring that gives you stamina back if you hit with the first part of your weapon skill but I imagine it'll be fun.
>>749631345It's okay to admit you play on Casual anon.
Very helpful description.
So like, where do you go from here in terms of story? Can there even be a DD3? A second dlc for 2? Anything?

>>749631070Dragon's Dogma did incredibly well on release even with Capcom's monetisation department sabotaging it with it's shitty microtransactions, and the lack of marketing. If its DLC suffers, its because they sabotaged the base game to prop up Wilds, a game that basically sucked by design and couldn't be saved.If there's anything Capcom should learn from this, it's that they basically had a new franchise in their hands and instead of riding that momentum they fucking fumbled it at every stage. All they have ever done with DD is recognise that it has enough potential to not be killed, but then they don't actually give it the resources to be what? A complete game? They have made two dragon's dogma games and both times have made the decision to not actually produce a complete, finished game. Twice.I almost wonder if Pragmata and Onimusha exist as a direct response to the obviously terrible idea of constantly sacrificing every new project to slop out more Monster Hunter and Resident Evil as if people magically won't get tired of the two same two properties over and over again.

How many unique ways into Battahl are there? Is there a particularly weird or fun one. Like everyone knows the cave, the oxcart, and beastren mask ways but I like seeing how many possibilities a game might have

>>749631852I love you too anon.
>>749631807Didn't DD2 get two celebrity narrated trailers from Ian Mcshane and Ron Pearlman? Why would they waste money like that for a "low budget game"?
>>749631798>path leading west from the checkpoint rest rown>ride on sphinx>just run through if the gate spasms just right
>>749631925Spent all the budget on marketing for some reason.
>>749631925The same reason Kojima does it
>>749631798you can mexican past the gate, get arrested and go straight to bakbattahl (jail)

What level cap should i set with mods so my pawn can still get hired (even though it barely happens as is), while keeping the DLC playable all the way to the end? Also, can this cause shadowban so nobody can see her at all?
unarmed status?
>>749632225>/v/ is one personFirst time, champ?
Whew, found the cave that had my shit in it. Too bad I also went to the wrong cave and found a fucking ghost wolf on the way and had to take on both at the same time
>>749632236No vocation but a lot of tools in the game to play it that way.
>>749630756i recall seeing a clip of the thief vocation running in a zigzag pattern, leaving a trail of fire that then explodes when they finish running. am I just hallucinating or is that not in the game?
>>749632305I'm not claiming the two posts are the same person though, I'm pointing out where the claim being argued fell apart. Maybe you should be mad at whoever failed at reading comprehension there, huh?
>>749632402No, you said 'which contradicts what that guy said in the first place' and the original reply was to >>749631925If you meant another anon you should've stated as such. I know autism is a sign of being unable to follow basic conversations even in text form but do try and keep up anon
>>749632502>If you meant another anon you should've stated as such>what that guy saidhow do you look at that and presume I'm saying the guy I'm talking to is "that guy"?
>>749632619>Why would you assume the reply is in relation to the comment it replied to and actually someone further down the chainNo idea. Why would anyone think that? You're digressing from your point here anon. Things can be low budget and money spent of that budget on marketing.Sorry to burst your bubble, but multiple things can be true. I know being autistic makes you prone to black and white thinking and all.
>>749632387That's the Thief's new Maister skill from the DLC. Has nothing to do with the wolf pet. You unlock those during the DLC's post-game.
>>749632740>>Why would you assume the reply is in relation to the comment it replied to and actually someone further down the chainBecause that's how conversations work. If you assumed my point was specifically about there being celebrity narrated marketing rather than the contention of why it even existed in the context of a low budget, low marketing game then that's your fault for not understanding what's being discussed. Maybe don't but in on conversations you don't understand next time.
>>749632936>If you assumed my point was specifically about there being celebrity narrated marketing rather than the contention of why it even existed in the context of a low budget, low marketing game then that's your fault for not understanding what's being discussed.>Sorry to burst your bubble, but multiple things can be true.

>Turned Trickster from a weird disruption tank into a pawn steroid machine with disruption and a good love for booksI'm okay with this.
>>749619826I fuckin hate that they removed the regular Meloirean helmet. Did they add it back in the DLC by any chance?
are these capcom names? i can't view their profileare the devs feeling pity for my pawn for not getting picked by real players?
>>749633312>Seething now his autism has been called outLmao, autistic melty. You do realize that /v/ isn't one person right? Ooooooo, anon I'm actually that anon from 3 posts ago oooooooooo.

>>749633825>Seething now his autism has been called outironic
I'm having a blast.
>>749633538Yeah, no profiles mean pity hires. What level are you? I'm surprised anyone's getting pity hires right now.
can you no longer put wakestones as pawn quest rewards?what's the next best item to get my pawn hired?
Did they nerf Blades Of The Pyre? It used to straight up delete encounters in seconds and now it barely does anything

>>749634347Endgame DD1 every female pawn was wearing the same silver bikini armor because it was meta and slutwear, just like how the corset became so common at the endgame of vanilla DD2. Transmog offers more variety, even though the fits are simpler and not as customizable. Ideally the next dragon's dogma has transmog and layered pieces, that'd be the best of both worlds.
>>749631704lady as fuck
Continue playing easy mode Mystic Spearhand or embrace challenge with Fighter?
>>749623410AW LAWDY
>>749632230Bump question.Bros, at least let me know what the optimal level to stop at would be so my pawn stays relevant for hiring. You can skip the shadowban stuff if you don't know
>>749634241Yea Its great. Really needed this right from the start so every party/pawn looks different.

Where in the DLC is the transmog place?
>>749634982you sure acting like you haven't though lol
How fucking rare did they make the ultimate spoils? I got one the first time I killed the powered up final boss so I thought it was at least a guaranteed 1 per kill, but now I've killed him another 5-6 times and I haven't gotten any.
>>749619826
>>749635058Unlocked through story progress
>>749635068I've accepted your concession four times.
>>749635058It's the smith. You get him a plant and later his son has you fight enemies attacking the settlement, then you get transmog. You might have to do a quest or two for the inn guy.
>archer>Torrent Shot>you're supposed to rapidly tap the assigned button but the aim/camera spazzes all over the placewho the fuck designed this? if you're on a controller you have to steady your aim with the right stick with your left thumb while you press the assigned button with your right hand
>>749635058Its a side quest thats quite far in, you get access to it once you help the expedition blow up a gate with barrels, youll know it when it happens. Just check back with the different NPCs every time you clear a main quest they will usually have something new.
>>749635194Is that okay?
>>749635290I've accepted your concession five times.
what's the name of the armor set that looks like a barbarian loincloth and where to get itI want to larp as a barb
>tfw you can only use DLC gear visuals for transmog
>>749635321>
>>749635341Why lie>>749634801This is all stuff from the base game. Its anything youve picked up, including weapons, you get a discount if its in your item storage.
>>749623113I think warrior's normal animations should be like 20-30% faster. Especially the heavy attack. Why the fuck are some of more damaging skills faster than my normal attack? it's kind of nuts. It's the whole reason I changed my pawn from being an archer to a mage with a bunch of support spells, especially and primarily the one that makes you faster.
Is there actually a big dungeon, or what?Are the dungeons that we do get throughout the world just mini dungeons that aren't repeatable?
>>749635450I've accepted your concession six times.
>>749622574ike monster hunter the focus is on the giant monsters
So, what's the new hotness on some of the classes with the new skills? Is skullsplitter still as great on thief?
>>749635610One of the dungeons they added is super long and you have to go in very light and get supplies in it. I actually really liked it and wanted more of that.
I'm a bit confused by Trickster... What am I actually supposed to be doing? Should I be using the Provocation augment, that increases the likelihood of being targeted?
>>749635648It's sounding more like you're the one conceding to be honest. If that's the case use any of the words "I accept your concession" in your next post.
>all the homes in the base game place you facing towards the exit door when you sleep>Norgan's inn aims you towards the back wallSee, it's things like this why Itsuno > Kinoshita
Do those giant harpy things only show up in rancors or do they appear in the world?
>>749635254you can tap r1 instead of the face button to keep shooting
>>749633897>it's personal onlyYou can target others with it, but it only effects Staves and Achistaves.
haven't tried the expansion yet, is there a new smithing style or is dwarven still the best one?
>battle frenzy IV daggernow we destroy
How is Spearhand in the DLC? I heard the new skills kind of suck
>>749635926You have been acknowledged for your shortcomings seven times.
>>749636236You can't use smithing on the DLC gear.
>>749636236Completely different system. Now you find items and appraise them and it gives you different kinds of equipment with different stats and can change your abilities and traits. You basically have to keep playing and fighting harder enemies to get better gear now.
>>749636283subjective
>>749621437I don’t think you know what gacha is
>>749635923You are supposed to hire thief and sorc pawns and then waste the enemies time until your pawns kill them. You can grapple and throw things as you wait. Dragon's Delusion deals massive stagger to large enemies and small enemies fall over when they step on fake floor. You these to make more openings. You can also attach the spook to enemies to make them hit each other.
>>749636341>>749636349ahh, okI did some of the Lost Rites and the gear from them can be smithed, so it's good to know it's different for the stuff in Norgan
Is there a con to having max character height? I noticed it changes my weight. I am making Guts and The Black Swordsman is canonically 6'8", so I figured I'd make him max height.
>>749636365You've been subjectively objectively acknowledged for your shortcomings eight times
>>749636274Its my favourite class, whoever said that cant play the class and thats why theyd think these were bad. The new abilities are shit like being able to air dash so long as you hit enemies you stay in the air and stuff like making your flurry attack summon a clone of yourself that chases enemies down.
>>749636457glad we agree, I accept your concession
>>749636442That gear from the dungeons upgraded can last you to rank 2 gear so if you have the stuff its actually worth doing, but the new equipment has different effects if you want to engage with the new stuff right away.
>>749636272>Battle Frenzy IV>Ring of Reversal
>>749636519>You've been subjectively objectively acknowledged for your shortcomings nine times
>>749636454Makes stamina recovery slower via the weight, but l so means you require more weight to be moved into heavier brackets, if that makes sense. Good for using heavy gear, bad for if you like spamming abilities and climbing monsters.
I'm confident we will see Dragon's Dogma 3 relatively soon, directed by the same guy as Dark Arisen and reusing a lot of assets from DD2 for quicker production. I don't think they had amazing expectations for Dark Arisen 2 sales since they are fully aware they fucked up the base game HARD and let it languish in a sorry state for 2 years since they had to save Wilds. You don't recover from that reputation with a paid expansion almost 3 years later with little marketing.If they had no further plans for DD, they would have simply let DD2 die. People had already moved on from the game and the fans accepted it was over, there was no pressure to save the IP. Now that MH is far weaker than they expected (Wilds flop after launch, Stories 3 abysmal sales, Outlanders pre-registrations seemingly low) and SF is big but almost only in Japan, they know they can't rely on MH+RE+SF forever.And outside of those 3 IPs, the biggest one is still DD. Onimusha and Pragmata were well received but still niche. If they allow the DA guy to make a DD3 with a lot of content and monster variety for once, none of the retarded Itsuno design decisions, co-op mode and they give it an actual marketing budget, that has the most potential to become their next big thing.
>>749636454Being huge makes your base climbing and sprinting speed slower or take more stamina or somethingBut you're harder to knock around
What is the highest jump in the game? I want to try to force my way to north norgan early and need a way to get over the invisible wall.
>>749636602I wouldnt say soon, but definitely in future. I want this DLC to have some breathing room and stragglers to jump back on, or even to just add more regions like this since the foundation is set.Do a full on desert zone next with the exact same mechanics and loot system, just in a new map, with sandstorms instead of blizzards and color swap the enemies again
>>749636454iirc it's better to pick max height if you want to play warrior because it's supposed to also increase your weapon's range too
>>749636802>DesertFuck no. Bakbattahl was bad enough, the last thing we need is open stretches of boring fucking sand.Snow is comfy, sand is boring.
>>749636602Whoever the guy is that created the DLC for DD2 should make DD3. It's so much better than the base game and it's fucking gigantic. I've almost put as many hours into the DLC as I had in the base game
>>749636985>Fuck no. Bakbattahl was bad enough, the last thing we need is open stretches of boring fucking sand.People say deserts are boring but I think they are wrong! Just make deserts interesting!
>they got Casey Edwards to do a songFucking based. That shit was kino
>>749632230>>749634775I do not understand your question.
>>749637345Eh, it's okay. No Into Free and I thought the progression of the song wasn't as good as Bury the Light,Sounded more like a generic rocks song if you remove the leitmotif of the main theme.
>>749636985Make it interesting. Knights in the jungle, conquistador shit. Moving between tropical islands.
>>749637345Pretty wholesome but the song was forgettable imo
>>749637345just looked it up, pretty shitty. bury the light and even devil trigger clears it big time
>>749635341You can use any gear for visual but you can only apply them to the DLC gear.
>>749635710Haven't found a dagger with that on it yet. Powder Blast gets more blasts. Thief's dire gouge gets an explosion at the end that makes you jump off. So you can set powder blast, then the gouge then set off the powder once you're in the air. The dash and slash lets you pin enemies on a 2nd hit. Thief's new DLC skill gets more explosions on the 2nd hit. And the counterattack goes nuts.
>>749636602I mean DD seems to have autistically devoted fans so it would be retarded to not do more with it It is very much "potential" the IP and they could do a lot more with it
What thief skills should I put on my pawn? I'm more or less asking what skills should I AVOID. I'm certain there are probably things in this list that the pawn ai can't handle. Or wants to spam a la the magic bolt thing in 1 or whatever it was for the core skills
How does updating Pawn level&gear/Pawn quest workIs it only when resting specifically at inns?So if I never rest at an inn, I'll only lose the pawn reward set I have no matter how many players get it?What about level of the pawn because so many people seem to have forever level 1 pawns
>>749638413Your pawn gets updated when you rest at a inn/your house.
>>749638338I hired a pawn with Smoke Bomb or Smokescreen whatever the fuck that was called while I was playing as Archer and it was fucking awful. He kept spamming that shit near enemies and I couldn't see anything.
>>749637979That's fucking sick. Maybe I should try thief for a bit. Fighter is cool and all but I always felt a bit anemic besides being able to get my shit kicked in for longer. Always preferred warrior
>>749638338Skull Splitter & Pilfer are the true must haves. Splitter for the absurd damage, Pilfer for stealing: you can steal a lot of good shit in this game and Thief Pawns do it constantly to great results.Besides that, Ensnare is great for toppling enemies or pulling flying enemies. You don't need anything else so Skull Splitter, Pilfer, Ensnare.>>749638795that's a good skill though, it makes normal enemies completely unable to act pretty much.Worthless against large targets however
>>749638795Fighter's full moon slash gets a LET IT RIP beyblade upgrade and the aerial attack gets turned into fucking Tiger Blade from Tales of.
