Keep getting comments telling me to use the shield. I know the shield skill is strong. But it's boring so I don't want to use it. "B-but 100% damage negation" Yeah that's why I find it boring. It's too strong. Remember to use the skills you find fun and interesting. Doesn't matter if it's not the "optimal" loadout.
True! Uppy-Downy at least requires you to time it to get the damage negation. Even then, like you said you can get clipped by dragons and sent flying. There’s skill involved. 100% guaranteed damage negation is dumb.
@@justachad6494 It's also cool looking, which is the main point of still playing after becoming OP and not starting a new game. That and researching flying technology as theif and warfarer, currently I know Concussive Leap, Powder Charge, and Skull splitter work best, but as soon as I figure out how the flying ragdoll glitch happens...
I swapped that skill out before I even got the upgraded version and had a much better time with MS. "Uppy Downy" is my favorite evasive attack, especially paired with "Dragon Dash".
@1337Swiper The teleporting, the clone, the color of the magic, the fast but efficient slashes, hell even the teleport stab. All from Vergil brought to you by the man who made Vergil. There's definitely some Star Wars in there, but it's more like "If Vergil picked up Maul's Saber" the class.
I love that Mystic Spearhand is basically the Arisen becoming a Jedi. Also, thanks for that tip about augments. I had no idea the offensive augments had been nerfed that hard.
Considering DD2 is very easy, good offensive augments would trivialize the game even more. The difficulty needs to be looked at and then offensive augments can be buffed.
@@bmist4kerc674 Needs more than hard mode, needs a replayable endgame and NG+ scaling. Otherwise there is no point in leveling. Youre better off starting a new game currently.
Well the lore of it is that it's a fighting style to fight dragons which is what dragoons are in most final fantasy games and I personally love that splash of Jedi into the mix.
I think the dlc enemy boss will had attack that bypass them like dullahan and purgener, the one horned drake unmoored fire blast can bypass the shield and make you die
It’s not really cheating How many games we play and bosses we fight that have shields shield spells? in the Witcher game, you can pretty much cast a shield. It’s not really cheating. It’s a shield. Spell
I get it’s for a joke in this video, but it’s extremely undervalued. Invulnerability for the whole party for barely any stamina and an extremely fast cast time is insane. It’s literally just another form of the master thief dodge skill, besides the fact it doesn’t even halt your combos! It negates ALL damage ALL knockdown.
@@ItachiUchiha-69 If you pair it with the stamina regen augment from Mage, you can basically cast it infinitely. The balance is totally borked, though I guess you can say that for the entire game tbh
@ItachiUchiha-69 once i realized you can just spam it for as long as you have stamina my neurons activated. use it well and youll never need curatives for your pawns again
7:21 Polarity is actually worse than both flat augments as its added bonus is calculated from your base stats. So with around 300 in either magic or strength, the bonus you'll be getting is just around 16.
When certain options are very powerful and feel good, the niche ones need to be even better. Feels bad. One of my few complaints on this incredible game.
Nah, DD1 was completely dominated by damage augments, esp in hard mode where their effectiveness drastically increased. I HATED having to use them for most of my playthrough, as the other option was doing chip dmg due to how defence worked in that game. Glad the nail's in the coffin
@yaqubebased1961 right and I've heard different opinions but I'm glad they took away periapt cause the double buff stacks was really busted. although at the current level strength and Magick augments are way to weak regardless of difficulty. it shouldn't be a flat upgrade that's just dumb
The Bury the Light montage is fitting with all the cyan particle effects and teleporting all over the place being very reminiscent of Vergil's gameplay. Hell, even the flurry attack ends in a spin like the Mirage Edge combo
Can't wait for the "mystic spearhand is op" showcase. Actually can't wait for the entire "every vocation is op" from you. You also got bangers that I discovered because of the song choices.
This is the first video guide of dragons dogma 2 from an actual good dragons dogma youtuber. No "op" this and "broken" that cringe titles, with MSH spamming the bubble shield every 3 seconds. Thank you cringe
I feel like Mystic Spearhand should have been a green and blue vocation. It feels most similar to Thief, with the staggering and executing as well as mounting.
I like to think that Mystic Spearhand and Magick Archer are effectively the advanced forms of Thief and Archer, respectively, even if that isn't indicated by the colors.
The real anime class is warfarer (spearhand/ greatsword) use Skiedragoun's Feste, heavenward sunder, and windstorm slash. Teleport everywhere and use a big ass sword, pretty anime to me
Some tips: you could use Mirour Shelde if you want to be op af. (Always have a staff for levitate for exploration and to heal yourself). With Skiedragoun's Feste you can actually use it for height and then shoot out Redouted Bolt when you are in the sky and it'll cancel out the animation of you stabbing the ground.
I use this combo too, I either use Mirror Shield +Raven Hond + X broken infinite invul and shield to cover whatever Greatsword charge or Dragon Dash + Feste for maximum anime
I stopped using the dash and dragoon jump to make space for shield but you've convinced me to go back to using them. That acrobatic fighting is just pure poetry in action. I'll get back to it once I finish my last four vocations.
This was a fantastic vid. It is a perfect evolution of your OG meme vids. It provides info while staying funny. Most importantly, staying with your own humor instead of family guy meme cut ins. Plus, we get to hear more of that disgusting prison accent.
I couldn't figure out how to use this vocation properly to save my life. Watched like 3 other videos that were boiled down to spam uppy downy and the shield. This video however taught me everything I wanted to know and other useful info aside, thanks Cringe! XDD
I would love to see more specific vocation showcases like this from you. I think you do a top tier job of showcasing how to play these classes both at a high level and in a way that’s actually fun. Watching this video made me realize I’m sequencing my moves when I play Spearhand poorly. Very inspiring stuff.
As a heads up the shield trivialises the game. It's 100% damage resistance that can be refreshed. Essentially as long as you have stamina you're team is unkillable and uninterruptible. It's ridiculously strong and do things like guaranteeing that wild furie goes off for full DPS
Dang that Bury the Light at the end hits hard absolute perfection Infinite Cringe , also glad you are using another vocation with mystic in it again loved your mystic knight vids before so absolutely loved this one as well.
You can use the telekinesis skill and throw dead or alive enemies at bosses for ABSOLUTELY INSANE amounts of damage. I love running it to throw enemies off cliffs or I’ll carry their bodies to boss rooms and basically kill them within 10 seconds
It also works well alongside pawns with Frigor as they will spawn ice cubes that you can also chuck at enemies. It's funny building up a giant wad of miscellaneous junk that you hurl around a fight as more and more enemies get knocked off their feet and integrated into your katamari spirit bomb.
@@grantmonsma3569 Well, for me that's the downside of this skill, cause unless the enemy is in the open world, there usually won't be much to throw at the boss. Also, I just don't have enough patience to build a doomstack of goblin corpses and carry them to the boss, just too tedious.
As someone who does main Mystic Spearhand, the shield is used for hyper aggressiveness. As long as you have the stamina for it, reapplying the shield tanks through the heaviest of heavy attacks, such as dragons fire, drake meteors, etc
Everything dies in 2 hit in DD2 since no real endgame challenge. Her old videos on DDDA were on BBI for the most part so idk how it'll be done on this one to kees people entertained.
Devout Offering takes me right back to the days of Force Unleashed or even Jedi Academy. Just walking along chucking enemies off cliffs with the force while chuckling like a malicious 6 year old.
Was watching a video someone made and analyzing the (physical) move set of the duo spear, i kinda like how it has realism in how the character wields a dual spear while being anime nuts with the magic aspects
I personally like to run the bubble one because you can also shield allies which is super useful for some specific NPC quest (like saving Ser Gregor in the misty marshes) And I gotta run the force push one because im a dark sith obviously.
The shield is so good though because it makes you take 0 damage and 0 knockdown. The upgraded version lasts forever and it just lets you spam every skill you have while taking no damage its so broken.
You make Mystic Spearhand look so cool!!! I want to try it now. I'll use this in my next play through. And I also swear by Dwarven Smithing, thanks to the boost in Knock-down power/resistance. Good stuff! And having your gear strengthened by the dragonforged makes everything light to use so it counteracts the weight gain Dwarven smithing applies. Really handy that is. Also, it is incredibly satisfying watching those gore harpies get a taste of their own medicine. They are nasty.
Mystic Spearhand is the action anime combat that most other action anime games WISH they could do. With a little does of Jedi and Final Fantasy. It's crazy and I love it.
A cool thing is that in Italy all the mystic spearhand skills have Latin names, for example dragon's stab is called "ungulae draconis" which translates to "dragon's claws"
I came to just compliment you on how fluid and skillful is your gameplay. I love Mystic Spearhand and I hope I can achieve this level of fighting finesse.
I’ve been enjoying spearhand a lot, but I also love DMC combat, so that makes sense. I’ll have to give the stamina drain and the flurry skills a go - thanks for showing them off! Good video :)
Mystic Spearhand is a great Vocation to cosplay as a Dragoon. It even has a dive attack! All it needs now is a jump backwards skill then I can truly fulfill my role as the floor tank.
Note: you can scatter bolt and teleport over to an enemy aswell, the timing is very tight and weird but what works for me to press bolt again when it hits to scatter and then right after the scatter "explosion" is nearly at its maximum aoe range press jump. This is quite quick and even I can't do it super consistently but it does make very quick work off large packs of goblins, wolves and bandits. As you can easily do this and then wildfurie or start stun locking the group while finishing them off one at a time
I played the mmo for a time (private server) mystic spearhand was everything that mage was except in some melee format. Decent dmg, great support with healing and debuffs. I was genuinely surprised to see how it changed in DD2. Its great
reminds more of a Witcher, Sigurd even described it as a set of attacks, skills and spells specifically used to kill Dragons. Kinda like a Witcher who gets trained to specifically kill monsters.
mystic spearhand is an absolutely incredible vocation until i came across flare + skullsplitter warfarer SHEEEEEESH, please make a video on how you’d play your warfarer
I’ve not watched any other video on MS as I want yo ho in blind! Great showcase here, and excellent tip on using Feste to avoid boss ground pounds! The one monsters that I hate soloing with this vocation is Minotaur - it’s a damn tank!
I'll be honest, I've played spearhand primarily since I got the vocation for well over 20 hours and didn't use bolt at all. This actually explained how to use it properly.
This is why I love your videos. Always able to revitalize my interest in playing because I was honestly starting to hit the end of my drive to play. Appreciate the laughs as always Cringe.
New to the channel, this is great! While most channels are regurgitating the same bs w/ cringe thumbnails. It's actually refreshing to learn something new, like the knockdown strat. Thanks again!
I've seen a video of someone using Unto Heven to homerun a goblin into a griffin's skull, knocking it out of the sky and into the Brine. Absolute meme skill but hilarious with the right timing.
I unlocked and played spearhand yesterday around level 25. Around vocation rank 5, I killed my first drake today. Yes I used the shield😔 It almost felt like cheating. But saving all the pawns from going down to meteors and lightning to continue the anime onslaught was such a feelgood. Fun vocation to master, and until that happens, shield has got you covered!
Mystic Spearhand is what you get when you're running a raw d&d campaign and you let that one player use his custom homebrewed not-at-all op class that can do everything and renders the rest of the party obsolete. And that's lore-accurate too. The guy you get it from says it's a custom fighting style all his own and a patchwork of different skills from all over.
The silly orbs you start out with are very underrated imo. Just stacking mad damage while you're comboing. Bonus, easy slime kills and can stagger throwing gobbos.
This is super late but I wanted to share some tips I found that make this class EVEN MORE fun. For starters, the basic bolt skill that doesn't do damage (Redouted bolt) staggers smaller enemies every time even without charging, and yes that means they STAGGER for crit purposes. Why else is this important? Because the force throw ability (Devout Offringe) can only affect enemies when they are staggered or down. See where I'm going with this? Bolt -> Throw -> Laugh -> Repeat. This is especially effective by cliffs for obvious reasons, but you can also use this to easily turn smaller mobs into missiles if they try to gank you while fighting a bigger boss. Another fun combo that I can't actually take credit for because I found it in another comment on a different video (apologies if this was you), you can combine bolt with uppy downies (Skie Dragoun) and Dragon dash to make what's essentially a super jump when climbing. Charge the bolt until it becomes Forbeding Bolt, then use Skie Dragoun and release the bolt at the top. If timed correctly, you'll cancel out of the attack into the midair bolt animation which lets you hover for a second or two, at which point you use Dragon Dash to fly forward. Boom! Instant super jump you can use to climb areas that can almost rival levitate at times.

Mystic Spearhand is a great Vocation to cosplay as a Dragoon. It even has a dive attack! All it needs now is a jump backwards skill then I can truly fulfill my role as the floor tank.
I think thief is way more anime, literally has ultra instinct toggle move and attack on titan double blade spin.
Note: you can scatter bolt and teleport over to an enemy aswell, the timing is very tight and weird but what works for me to press bolt again when it hits to scatter and then right after the scatter "explosion" is nearly at its maximum aoe range press jump.
This is quite quick and even I can't do it super consistently but it does make very quick work off large packs of goblins, wolves and bandits.
As you can easily do this and then wildfurie or start stun locking the group while finishing them off one at a time
Appreciating this use of the DMC soundtrack
I played the mmo for a time (private server) mystic spearhand was everything that mage was except in some melee format. Decent dmg, great support with healing and debuffs. I was genuinely surprised to see how it changed in DD2. Its great
reminds more of a Witcher, Sigurd even described it as a set of attacks, skills and spells specifically used to kill Dragons.
Kinda like a Witcher who gets trained to specifically kill monsters.
can't wait for all the fun content !
mystic spearhand is an absolutely incredible vocation until i came across flare + skullsplitter warfarer SHEEEEEESH, please make a video on how you’d play your warfarer
Ngl mystic spearhead feels like being Vergil with the spear, it even has tiny dagger shootie thingies from the back, just like Vergil does
You're basically a Jedi, it's not even trying to hide it.
I’ve not watched any other video on MS as I want yo ho in blind!
Great showcase here, and excellent tip on using Feste to avoid boss ground pounds!
The one monsters that I hate soloing with this vocation is Minotaur - it’s a damn tank!
I had never seen a video of yours until today, and you are hilarious
I'll be honest, I've played spearhand primarily since I got the vocation for well over 20 hours and didn't use bolt at all. This actually explained how to use it properly.
This is why I love your videos. Always able to revitalize my interest in playing because I was honestly starting to hit the end of my drive to play. Appreciate the laughs as always Cringe.
As an Insect Glaive main, I approve.
New to the channel, this is great! While most channels are regurgitating the same bs w/ cringe thumbnails. It's actually refreshing to learn something new, like the knockdown strat. Thanks again!
Brother, that FPS damage joke had me dead. Good on you.
just found this channel. I love your humor - actually finding myself laughing out loud - it's a real problem at work 🤣

Mystic Spearhand is my beloved because it let me throw enemies like a Jedi and ignore attacks. It made fighting magic-spamming dragons a breeze.
Lol great job, was fun and funny to watch, you have a great sense of humor.
I've seen a video of someone using Unto Heven to homerun a goblin into a griffin's skull, knocking it out of the sky and into the Brine. Absolute meme skill but hilarious with the right timing.
I can’t wait for your video of a full breakdown of the game
Ain’t this something, was looking to see if you uploaded 2 hours ago. let’s goo!
The magic shield can pierce the heart of a drake if you stand under him while he does his slammy downy attack
Love the editing style, you've earned a sub and I'm gonna try Mystic Spearhand now! Been using fighter for way too long.
as a big fan of sky rapture mystic knight from the first game, yeah this looks like it'll be the vocation for me.
I unlocked and played spearhand yesterday around level 25. Around vocation rank 5, I killed my first drake today.
Yes I used the shield😔
It almost felt like cheating. But saving all the pawns from going down to meteors and lightning to continue the anime onslaught was such a feelgood.
Fun vocation to master, and until that happens, shield has got you covered!
Mystic Spearhand is what you get when you're running a raw d&d campaign and you let that one player use his custom homebrewed not-at-all op class that can do everything and renders the rest of the party obsolete.
And that's lore-accurate too. The guy you get it from says it's a custom fighting style all his own and a patchwork of different skills from all over.
The silly orbs you start out with are very underrated imo. Just stacking mad damage while you're comboing. Bonus, easy slime kills and can stagger throwing gobbos.
This is super late but I wanted to share some tips I found that make this class EVEN MORE fun.
For starters, the basic bolt skill that doesn't do damage (Redouted bolt) staggers smaller enemies every time even without charging, and yes that means they STAGGER for crit purposes. Why else is this important? Because the force throw ability (Devout Offringe) can only affect enemies when they are staggered or down. See where I'm going with this? Bolt -> Throw -> Laugh -> Repeat. This is especially effective by cliffs for obvious reasons, but you can also use this to easily turn smaller mobs into missiles if they try to gank you while fighting a bigger boss.
Another fun combo that I can't actually take credit for because I found it in another comment on a different video (apologies if this was you), you can combine bolt with uppy downies (Skie Dragoun) and Dragon dash to make what's essentially a super jump when climbing. Charge the bolt until it becomes Forbeding Bolt, then use Skie Dragoun and release the bolt at the top. If timed correctly, you'll cancel out of the attack into the midair bolt animation which lets you hover for a second or two, at which point you use Dragon Dash to fly forward. Boom! Instant super jump you can use to climb areas that can almost rival levitate at times.
I love this vocation. It's like playing Vergil but RPG and even mechanics, playstyles are very similar.
