Super lucky. But still lv1 Bolide has a 50% hit rate, compared to 25% for grand. And half the cast time. I never have been a fan of the lv3 skills, except for MK, those make sense.
Thanks Derek. I am also working in a "misused skills" and a "malfunctioned skills" maybe you can think of some to add. Like deadly gouge being worse than dire, or comestion being better than high comestion. Misused.... so far I just have Arc of, crippling and Downthrust. And yeah, a few more with switch release. Maybe a few after the anime. And, if a sequel, maybe a few more.
@@Nihil0.0 Possible suggestion - What about a guide on elevation-support skills like Ladder Blade, Catapult Blade, Springboard, Leaping Stone etc? I use stuff like that, to help me get to parts in Gransys that I've never been able to see before :D Possible suggestion: Nihil tours all Gransys (a video compilation series of map exploration)? I'd love to see any of your characters run around Gransys, giving walkthroughs on obscure landmarks and secret nooks and crannies XD I'll think of misused and malfunction-prone abilities too, in a bit :) Question - Do you know how to get past the goblin fortress inside the goblin den, which the leader retreats into? Idk how to get into the arena underneath the castle (after the goblin leader automatically runs away). It's always blocked by the gate for me.

This is 2 weeks late but here's some info I got online. DMC5 isn't being worked on anymore so maybe no Special Edition for that.

Well he said he either wanted to make DMC5 or DD2 and he was told he could do either. That's a good sign for DD2 in the future since it's basically already been greenlit. I reckon that will be Itsuno's next game.
Good stuff man thanks for taking the time to do this it's nice to see more then just the answer but the process and/or how we get the answer thumbs up for sure
Good thing these videos exist bc on 360 and again on Pc I was just a warrior running around whacking things. Now that I got the switch version I'm actually trying other playstyles for once. Only took me, what, 6 years?
After 5 years I finally moved from warrior to mystic knight and I love it😂 no changes over the past year though yet but I’m showing a new person the game so imma play at the same time and give them tips and I’ll try being a mage and sorcerer but I’ll eventually go back to MK I just wanna pick up some skills and hopefully teach my sorcerer pawn what spells to use

here I was thinking I was good at the game. sitting at a steady level 180 or so and I had no clue gamble was able to one shot, or demons wrath worked like that.
Friendly reminder to all you Mystic Knight users, holding down the summon button for certain MK abilities/spells will charge them up, allowing you to use the more powerful effects you read about at the inn/skill place. I'm just now learning this and I felt dumb, it certainly makes the Knight more combat capable.
Yes this is a feature for all magic vocations and even some bow ones. Yellow-star skills need a second bar charged as opposed to base-level skills. You can get red-star skills (like high bolide) with certain items (assuming you've already learned to Yellow version)
If your playing on PC do yourself a favor and head to the nexus and mod the game. So many good quality of life changes there. Example - change the cast speed buff from articulacy to something meaningful. Or make bolide not waste 80% of it's shots on dirt. My all time favorite is to mod out or increase your carry capacity and reduce stamina use while running.
Question nils. Why do mage and sorcerer pawns cast in front of enemies like dragons instead of casting behind them. Is it because of their script or do they have to be taught how to?
Because you are. They have to be in the screen (in a sense) they need to reset to your side on occasion, and this puts them close to you. Sometimes yes, even if you are far they will place them selves in the front, and that would likely be because the center of the screen is the target, and they need to be in the screen for you to see them (or at least the program says so)
@@Nihil0.0 ok ill take that into consideration. Cus I was wondering why they would always do that. How are you enjoying your vacation i hope its been going well?
So i have a question for everyone here. What is with the sudden popularity skyrocket of this game? I have been playing Dragons Dogma since like 2012 and am curious as to why its just now getting popular
The Switch release was recent, so youtube has pushing Dogma content, and then additionally there is an Anime in the works, which may have drawn attention.
@@Nihil0.0 oh! Ok! Neat im glad to see this game finally getting the attention in deserves now only if dragons dogma online would go NA that would be even better
I find perfect block best for Garm, or Enhanced response with a follow up to the rear of Windmill. But I still choose Antler toss over Windmill, much more versatility
Surprised sixfold-bolt isnt on this tbh. That skill has evaded all reason for me. Sometimes it absolutely shreds an enemy and sometimes it deals almost or literally 0 damage to the same type of enemy. I am absolutely clueless why that is.
The tracer bolt may hit a weak point, but the actual darts that home in on it may hit tougher parts. It's a very finicky ability, but not hard to understand once you notice what's happening.
Personally no, I don't think so, but that's because it doesn't apply much to solo play. It is beneficial for Sorcerer pawns..... maybe, but truly, Sorcerer pawns should not be near you in melee range
Bro your channel is awesome. I've always loved dragons dogma, but I had no idea just how ignorant I was of some the games systems. I've learned so much from your videos, especially the class schematics, and the guides on how to get your new playthroughs running quicker. DD is an amazing game, and im really grateful for the amount of work you put into all these videos. I don't think there's a single one where I didn't learn something. I'm amazed that you were able to make me love this game more than I did already. I hope one day we get a DD2, or DDO in the west or he'll even a DD remake/remaster with all the intended content like the moon. Ty again for the work.
i noticed that when fighting that wind dragon right before daimon, if i used grand bolide the dragon would get hit more often, i don't know if i was being really lucky or if it lands more hits because the dragon has a big hurtbox
I believe it's because dragons have multiple target locations like chimera do. ie; You only get things like dragon horns or great dragon alula if you target specific parts of the dragon.
I don't know if that Splitter no fall damage was patched out on the PS4 version or if I need to have a lighter character, but that absolutely will not work for me. I've tried it multiple times in multiple locations including Duskmoon Tower. And no I'm not jumping first.
I have a question about the max stamina.for some reason I don't know I'm stuck at 3305 for main and pawn 3100? Both strider and ranger build max level. So what happen. I have 4682 base health. Nothing is helping my stamina and I looked on a few pages stating that 4945 is max Without rings.but can't seem to reach it. Any reasons?
With 4600 health and 3300 stamina, it sounds like more fighter or more warrior was leveled. 200 levels as Strider gets you 3400 health and 4500 stamina. 190 levels as Ranger gets you 4900 stamina. The Red vocations get more health and less stamina, the Blue get low health and low stamina and yellow gets high stamina and low health.
@@Nihil0.0 ugh I just looked up builds guessing that was my problem xD I didn't know that for the longest time seems like everything was set in stone boy was I wrong. Thank you replying I love your explained video better than any I've seen. Good job and thanks. C:
What about the strider core skill “fortitude”? im not sure what its called but its the skill ment for “climbing cliffs easier” I never had a clue how to use it or what it even did
i have a question. how to make the dart explode mid air instead on the ground? im confused as to which button should be held and which should be released
@@Nihil0.0 so basically don't use it because I have not been using it and every now and then I get a perfect block you're basically telling me just keep playing as a Mystic Knight so did Ghost say that would you recommend practicing perfect block against the UR dragon
Still doesn't explain why Blearing and Silentium are melee PBAoE. It's...dumb. We are not talking the MK, but a simple Mage, what's he doing running in the front lines? And no, I can't edit it with that fantastic dinput.dll hook mod. They'd actually be quite satisfying to use for CC if they actually had range... Regardless, thanks for this video. edit: Maybe do a vid on the balance of skills / augments? Would love to hear your thoughts.
I still don't understand Rangers Great Gamble skill, I have 5038 stamina with a master ring and virtuoso ring, bow is Dragon's Glaze with damage 1115 but you/he said the bow or bow damage doesn't matter but I only take away two health dots and a half bar from the prisoner gore cyclops's health bar. Is it because of the bracket number in front of my stamina? ST: 5038 (4558) I didn't take any potions, just used the rings to bring the stamina up like the mans did in this video so why?
Nvm, I killed the gore cyclops in front of the other one. I guess my arrow hit the top part of his head and that didn't count as hitting his weak point and instead counted as hitting the backside of the head? Either that or I was just far enough away that the damage fallout from arrow range mitigated some of the damage
I am not very familiar with scrolls and items. Wh1sper123 has lots of videos with some scrolls, but not a specific video. Wh1sper has some great dogma content too.
In my opinion the jewels are all better than the books/scrolls. The Jewel of Summoning for example can help Warriors and Fighters deal with Man Eaters, Sirens, The Dark Bishop and even Elder Ogre if you're a male Arisen. Death sometimes drops two of them. They weigh 0.61, and can be forged at the Black Cat for 6,900 g. Try them out.
How do you create so many different characters? Do you use a save manager or just create a separate account each time you want to make a new character?
Strider skills like fracture dart are affected by strength, right? Same with Ranger skills for the most part? How much strength should I aim for if I plan on being a strider or ranger in the end?
@@Nihil0.0 Thank you very much for the reply. Do I need much magic for enchanted weapons? Sorry for silly questions. I am very much a noob and I appreciate your knowledge for the game. I was going to aim for about 800 strength with 3800 ish hp and stamina, give or take some. Then my pawn is just gonna be a sorcerer save for some random levels that accidentally happened. I'm sure he'll be fine as long as I get him decent gear later^^; and save up enough RC to fix his nose because I botched it while half asleep. RC is hard to get offline😬
No worry for Magic stat on a pure physical vocation. Only the weapon's magic numbers are applied, and augments. I show in this video below. You can also change character appearances when you go into New Game + or if you switch to Hard Mode, or switch to Normal mode from hard mode. ua-cam.com/video/ttpAtgT-Lkk/v-deo.html
Some skills I often used but didn't fully understand until years later:
Divine Defense: Makes you impervious to grabs
Clairvoyance: You don't actually have to be facing the enemy for the move to go off
Hindsight Sweep/Strike: Can be cancelled by holding shield after the initial dodge, and in doing so you don't lose stamina
Just knowing what Divine Defense and Hindsight Sweep can do makes a massive difference for fighter class. It allows you to fight bosses up close and personal without fear of getting grabbed, and gives you a literal dodge skill to avoid any attacks that would consume too much stamina if you blocked. That being coupled with Dragon's Maw which can interupt any enemy attack at will makes it one of the more fun classes in the game even compared to Mystic Knight and Assassin.

extremely useful video, also nice to see that once again, the best way to use ranger skills is to just level as ranger and nothing else.
I always say each vocation gets the stats that they need.
Well, Ranger’s stamina growth from level 100+ is equal to other classes, so you’re free to mix and match, if you are min/max stamina.
If your playing on PC do yourself a favor and head to the nexus and mod the game. So many good quality of life changes there. Example - change the cast speed buff from articulacy to something meaningful. Or make bolide not waste 80% of it's shots on dirt. My all time favorite is to mod out or increase your carry capacity and reduce stamina use while running.
shit now i need playlist of this kind of video after playing 94 hours of the game
Question nils. Why do mage and sorcerer pawns cast in front of enemies like dragons instead of casting behind them. Is it because of their script or do they have to be taught how to?
Because you are. They have to be in the screen (in a sense) they need to reset to your side on occasion, and this puts them close to you. Sometimes yes, even if you are far they will place them selves in the front, and that would likely be because the center of the screen is the target, and they need to be in the screen for you to see them (or at least the program says so)
@@Nihil0.0 ok ill take that into consideration. Cus I was wondering why they would always do that. How are you enjoying your vacation i hope its been going well?
Good videos, started the game again.
Casting grand bolide makes me feel like a badass tho
If you can cast meteors and tornadoes at max destruction even against a singular bat
*do it*
You think we'll ever get a sequel to DD?
yeah, I think so. And it's good to read from you Minato, even if you're not first
@@Nihil0.0 I keep up with all your vids I just don't always have something to say is all
Dragon's dogma 2 is a thing now
10:21 Do you bring the fiend luring insecse with you for the elder ogre to spawn????
So i have a question for everyone here. What is with the sudden popularity skyrocket of this game? I have been playing Dragons Dogma since like 2012 and am curious as to why its just now getting popular
The Switch release was recent, so youtube has pushing Dogma content, and then additionally there is an Anime in the works, which may have drawn attention.
@@Nihil0.0 oh! Ok! Neat im glad to see this game finally getting the attention in deserves now only if dragons dogma online would go NA that would be even better
a guardian of this labyrinth perhaps
I play a Changeling names Nihil in DnD sessions with my friends. Well met fellow Nihil!
The Magic Archer skills can be confusing to use as well like how Great Ward Arrow and Magic Rebalancer work as well.
i got a switch just because this game came out lol, i put soooooo much hours on the pc version
I main MK and its good to see it on here lol never used demons wrath but now i think i might start
Nice vid. Could you please guide me in which situation intimate Gambit or windmill is useful. Can I use intimate Gambit in place of tusk toss?
Intimate is good for small enemies, but not larger. Windmill is great with charging force hatchet or when an enemy is knocked down.
@@Nihil0.0 yep I noticed we don't get the staggered animation with big enemies. Windmill work well with garms.
I find perfect block best for Garm, or Enhanced response with a follow up to the rear of Windmill. But I still choose Antler toss over Windmill, much more versatility
@@Nihil0.0 windmill is just slash. Basically kisses on ground on sword .
Please help!!! My skull splitter doesn’t work! Can’t spin and also can’t dodge roll! Any ideas????
high knowledge on chymera being 3 npc in 1
Surprised sixfold-bolt isnt on this tbh. That skill has evaded all reason for me. Sometimes it absolutely shreds an enemy and sometimes it deals almost or literally 0 damage to the same type of enemy. I am absolutely clueless why that is.
The tracer bolt may hit a weak point, but the actual darts that home in on it may hit tougher parts. It's a very finicky ability, but not hard to understand once you notice what's happening.
Any practical use for holy wall on MK?
Personally no, I don't think so, but that's because it doesn't apply much to solo play. It is beneficial for Sorcerer pawns..... maybe, but truly, Sorcerer pawns should not be near you in melee range
How does Controlled Fall work? I hit X right as im about to hit the ground but i still splatter for a bunch of damage
It only works when an enemy manages to hit you off the ground.
@@DragonessYT ohhh, thank you! Only recently started, is the ______(last boss) supposed to die that fast?
dillon leavelle yes, it’s health is dependent on your last Arisen (offline) or the Arisen that it chose (online)
Bro your channel is awesome. I've always loved dragons dogma, but I had no idea just how ignorant I was of some the games systems. I've learned so much from your videos, especially the class schematics, and the guides on how to get your new playthroughs running quicker. DD is an amazing game, and im really grateful for the amount of work you put into all these videos. I don't think there's a single one where I didn't learn something. I'm amazed that you were able to make me love this game more than I did already.
I hope one day we get a DD2, or DDO in the west or he'll even a DD remake/remaster with all the intended content like the moon.
Ty again for the work.
I've finally found my long lost brother... #NihilFamily
Yep, there's a few of us out there
What gear is the strider in the first segment wearing? That outfit looks rad.
That's a well-earned subscribe from me. Thanks, man.
i noticed that when fighting that wind dragon right before daimon, if i used grand bolide the dragon would get hit more often, i don't know if i was being really lucky or if it lands more hits because the dragon has a big hurtbox
I believe it's because dragons have multiple target locations like chimera do. ie; You only get things like dragon horns or great dragon alula if you target specific parts of the dragon.
how do you get grand bolide? I'm lvl 10 sorc and only have high bolide. also your casting time is insanely fast, how do you do that
You can get rings from cursed gear in bitter black when uncursed. Sometimes the ring will be a skill ring that boots a skill to level 3 when equipped
I don't know if that Splitter no fall damage was patched out on the PS4 version or if I need to have a lighter character, but that absolutely will not work for me. I've tried it multiple times in multiple locations including Duskmoon Tower.
And no I'm not jumping first.
I'm not sure about the PS4 or XB1 or Switch. That would suck if it were changed. That would be a silly thing to "fix"
@@Nihil0.0 Actually I guess it was weight. I made my character lighter and now it works.
Good to hear. I've been telling everyone as far as I know it works on all platforms.
I have a question about the max stamina.for some reason I don't know I'm stuck at 3305 for main and pawn 3100? Both strider and ranger build max level. So what happen. I have 4682 base health. Nothing is helping my stamina and I looked on a few pages stating that 4945 is max Without rings.but can't seem to reach it. Any reasons?
With 4600 health and 3300 stamina, it sounds like more fighter or more warrior was leveled. 200 levels as Strider gets you 3400 health and 4500 stamina. 190 levels as Ranger gets you 4900 stamina. The Red vocations get more health and less stamina, the Blue get low health and low stamina and yellow gets high stamina and low health.
@@Nihil0.0 ugh I just looked up builds guessing that was my problem xD I didn't know that for the longest time seems like everything was set in stone boy was I wrong. Thank you replying I love your explained video better than any I've seen. Good job and thanks. C:
What mean lower magick % in dragon dogma?, recomended use for magick base or what ? Im understand that
What armour did he use on his Ranger? That's a really cool fashion
What is the armor Nilette has on at 9:45 ?
Carion set. From BBI cursed armor lv3 purifications. And Adept's hat, from BBI cursed armor lv2
Actually I think 4 meteors hit the ogre, the 4th one connected when he was doing his drop kick, but still point well taken.
What about the strider core skill “fortitude”? im not sure what its called but its the skill ment for “climbing cliffs easier” I never had a clue how to use it or what it even did
All augments are explained in this vedeo below. Dexterity allows you to climb ledges quicker. That is all.

Nihil0.0 Ok thanks a ton
i have a question. how to make the dart explode mid air instead on the ground? im confused as to which button should be held and which should be released
He mentioned that. Press and hold then release the same button.
Do you teach the fighter augments presiecence which will help me master perfect block while playing as a Mystic Knight
I usually don't use Prescience. I would rather have another augment. If you get rid of it, you learn the timing and then wont need it anymore.
@@Nihil0.0 so basically don't use it because I have not been using it and every now and then I get a perfect block you're basically telling me just keep playing as a Mystic Knight so did Ghost say that would you recommend practicing perfect block against the UR dragon
@@Nihil0.0 also I'm watching your video on how to defeat death pre Damian will this work with any of the split vocations
You can gravity kill Death with all, but Fighter and Warrior. Holy Focused bolt, or Magical Gleam, or blast arrows
Still doesn't explain why Blearing and Silentium are melee PBAoE. It's...dumb. We are not talking the MK, but a simple Mage, what's he doing running in the front lines? And no, I can't edit it with that fantastic dinput.dll hook mod. They'd actually be quite satisfying to use for CC if they actually had range...
Regardless, thanks for this video.
edit: Maybe do a vid on the balance of skills / augments? Would love to hear your thoughts.
Dude, just go miasma with according effect archistaff
way simpler and better
What about Arc of Obliteration?
The damage is based in...?
Thanks for the vid.
Not quite sure, but not so much the weapon. I think it may be innate strength or upgrade level. This is on my list to test though.
@@Nihil0.0 Thanks!
I dont get how bolide could be confusing if you read its description it's pretty clear what it does it's a higher level fire spell.
Yes, but it only hits 2 meteors per target, making it a waste on rooms that arent full of things.
I still don't understand Rangers Great Gamble skill, I have 5038 stamina with a master ring and virtuoso ring, bow is Dragon's Glaze with damage 1115 but you/he said the bow or bow damage doesn't matter but I only take away two health dots and a half bar from the prisoner gore cyclops's health bar.
Is it because of the bracket number in front of my stamina?
ST: 5038 (4558)
I didn't take any potions, just used the rings to bring the stamina up like the mans did in this video so why?
Nvm, I killed the gore cyclops in front of the other one. I guess my arrow hit the top part of his head and that didn't count as hitting his weak point and instead counted as hitting the backside of the head? Either that or I was just far enough away that the damage fallout from arrow range mitigated some of the damage
Imagine if the highest bolide was enough to destroy an entire solar system lmao, or at least the sun
2:16 dang thats in dmc5 O_O
Same development team.👍
Could you make a spell books/scrolls schematics video?
I am not very familiar with scrolls and items. Wh1sper123 has lots of videos with some scrolls, but not a specific video. Wh1sper has some great dogma content too.
In my opinion the jewels are all better than the books/scrolls. The Jewel of Summoning for example can help Warriors and Fighters deal with Man Eaters, Sirens, The Dark Bishop and even Elder Ogre if you're a male Arisen. Death sometimes drops two of them. They weigh 0.61, and can be forged at the Black Cat for 6,900 g. Try them out.
I just started playing DDDA and YT shows me this... I really don't see me fighting those big chonker as a FIghter/Mystic Knight xD
Now I learned thanks, . . . I never knew why I always got a fall damage using that Skull Splitter on that spot 😂😂😂
Armour set please!? 8:05
You get it by getting into the dukes manse its a quest/trophu
do periapts and sekret arrow debuff stack with great gamble too?
How do you create so many different characters? Do you use a save manager or just create a separate account each time you want to make a new character?
Just found this vid after asking about fall damage with helm splitter on another video. I feel so dumb!
No worries. Many have asked about that trick
Did I make a mistake going Magic Archer if I don't want to sacrifice pawns?
just bought this game and I have no idea what any of this is or the stuff mentioned in the comics but thank you anyway I'm sure I will in time.
Strider skills like fracture dart are affected by strength, right? Same with Ranger skills for the most part? How much strength should I aim for if I plan on being a strider or ranger in the end?
500, 600, 900. It doesn't matter much. You should aim for Weapons and Augments. That's where our damage comes from
@@Nihil0.0 Thank you very much for the reply. Do I need much magic for enchanted weapons? Sorry for silly questions. I am very much a noob and I appreciate your knowledge for the game. I was going to aim for about 800 strength with 3800 ish hp and stamina, give or take some. Then my pawn is just gonna be a sorcerer save for some random levels that accidentally happened. I'm sure he'll be fine as long as I get him decent gear later^^; and save up enough RC to fix his nose because I botched it while half asleep. RC is hard to get offline😬
No worry for Magic stat on a pure physical vocation. Only the weapon's magic numbers are applied, and augments. I show in this video below.
You can also change character appearances when you go into New Game + or if you switch to Hard Mode, or switch to Normal mode from hard mode.
