I think there is a decent argument to be made that if you want to play a specific starting vocation it is actually better to start as a different vocation. Then kill the 6 goblins in the beginning of the game, rest at the first outpost, then retalk to the inn keeper and he will now allow you to switch your vocation for 100 VP, which is roughly what you get for killing the 6 goblins. The benefits for doing this is that you trade 100VP for about 2-3k worth of equipment because vocation changes automatically give you a full starting set of weapons and armor. 3k bonus gold can be very helpful in the early game for getting you a decent ring or armor/weapon upgrade.
Thanks. (1) Re pawns, you can do an advanced search in the rift menu to find pawns with specific skills, etc. that you want. (2) Camping gear is reusable, unless it gets destroyed in an attack whilst you're camping. (3) Vendors who enhance gear will enhance different attributes. For example, Vermundian armours will enhance different attributes to Elven armourers. (4) In the menu, the ring rotating counter-clockwise around the map represents the time. With the 12 o'clock position being the current time of day.
It took me like 25 hours to realize I wasn't using up my camping gear, LOL. SO many camps I ignored, because I didn't want to 'waste' my camping gear. At one point, all in my party was down to minimum max health, because I was trying to work my way back to an inn. My god, I made the first 20+ hours of the game so hard for myself! Thanks for the tip on gear enhancing, I didn't know it enhanced differently based on NPC!
Thank you for your work ! Always great to check your guides and playthrough, it helps a lot ! From demon's souls to Elden Ring, Bloodborne, Sekiro, DD Dark Arisen and now DD2, Lies of P, god of war, recently helldivers 2, just great to know that your content will be there ! Keep the excellent work !
@@inso3988Finally character customization that I have always wanted. I didn't take that long but the options were really good. I am just bad at charactet creation.
Use the advanced pawn search in the rift if you're looking for a specific type of pawn. It has all sorts of filters like class and level, etc... It will get rid of all the pawns that don't match and bring in only pawns matching your filters.
After watching about 5 or 6 beginners videos on UA-cam, yours is the only one that shows me how to actually approach and play this game. I'm like level 15 and didn't know how to level up my character, weapons, add skills etc until now. Thank you
Keep in mind if you find a unique weapon WHERE you enhance it matters. So if you find best in slot Mage gear enhance it at the elf smithy. Sometimes struggling a little to get to that Desert land smith is optimizing the Strength upgrade on your weapon.
open world action rpgs are my favorite so i cant wait to play this. my only worry is some people say its lacking in content and pretty quick to beat the game
Another TIP! Each area on the map will have different Enhancement Buffs when enchanting weapons and armor. You can tell which enchantments you have by looking at the symbols in the squares when you are looking at a weapon or armor piece in your inventory or win at the enchanting menu. You can mix and match. But I don’t recommend doing that unless it’s on a early weapon or a weapon. You don’t plan on keeping. because mixing them up, you won’t get the most out of the weapon Vermund territory is a well rounded enchantment, it will enchant strength, the defense in magic, all pretty equally, but not as much as choosing a specific type ( str def mag/ mag def) Bahttali territory will upgrade, strength and defense but not so much magic. Elvin well upgrade magic/ magic def but not so much strength and defense Dwarven with upgrade strength, little def not so much magic or magic defense, but it greatly increases your knockdown power. So where you go to upgrade items all depends on your vocation and items being used. Be careful when choosing where to enhance because you cannot undo an enhancement once you do it. So if you enhance in bahttal twice but wanted more of a magic buff and now you want to go to the Elvin smith you’re only gonna be able to enhance that item one time with the Elvin Smith!
Seeing as this dropped exactly the same time as the game released it isn't hard to see Cowboy wasn't allowed to drop it before. Other youtubers also had their videos dropping right at release time. If that's not the case, yea it should've dropped before release lol
Cyberpunk's vibes. Negative reviews on steam.... Don't believe the hype, people never learn. I'm glad I saved my money, I'll bring my chick to a nice restaurant, at least I know I won't be disapointed.
I hired a very talkative pawn, later I found a chest and she was like "oh, wow, i need to tell my master about this chest in my real world", im like can someone hire my pawn and show it chests and other cool stuff?!
@@EverythingWasGreat when you rest at an Inn, your pawn will go to the rift and be hired, when you come back or wake up your pawn will tell you about his or her adventures with other Arisens.
Use advanced pawn search you can search for the exact vocation / lv range / weapon / skills. Race/ sex/ inclination ...everything and see only pawns matching all criteria . Don't waste time scrolling through the pawns in rift section
In a way, this feels a lot like one with a face lift. Also some extra features which honestly im happy about it because i just started playing one again last week in anticipation for this.
Can’t wait to play this hope it gets delivered tomorrow! Iam on the final boss on elden ring been playing it off and on for the last two years need different challenge😂
I'm so happy to be playing a new Dragons Dogma! Thankfully my PC can handle it 😅 P.S. you don't have to buy the micro transactions.. yes I hate them too but at least they cheap and not needed
lol, the FIRST ox cart I took (the starter quest that tells you to take a cart to Melve), I wanted to watch the ride since it was new. I got barely a few hundred feet from the first city, already had 2 fights, and then a griffon attacked - chased it off barely with my lvl 6 or so ass, and just up the road 5 minutes later, an ogre/werewolf thing attacked, jumping onto the cart destroying it. So...I ended up walking the entire way to Melve and forgot about ox carts lmao.
Been using your Official Pawn on the steam version and its been helping me out a ton, wish you had quest assistance on it tho cuz im so lost running around in this ginormous map lol
@@sirdanik1 Those marks indicate a point of interest your pawns have pointed out. For example, the one in the encampment is indicating the chest under the tower, but its bugged to not vanish afterwards.
I want to make a pawn that ppl will use. Should I make my personal pawn a healer or do damage? It doesn’t matter to me I just want to help ppl and have my pawn be awesome!
The majority of people will be wanting mages for their ability to not only heal you, but also cure debilitations and grant elemental boons. A mage with a personality geared towards aiding and the specialization to even be able to use curatives on party members will be ideal.
Dragon dogma 2 is like dragons dogma 1 remastered. I cannot inderstand how combat can be solid if you cannot lock on and in general dont have a clue what is going on. Cheers an thank anyway Cowboy.
Switching the bumpers doesnt make much sense for archers IMo, because youd be firing arrows with left bumper which ive never experienced in any other game.
So, it sounds like chest icons on the map stay in place even after the chest has been opened correct? If so, does it appear as a different shade of white to indicate it's been found? Also, does anyone know if the 'point of interest' exclamation points stay visible after the... interesting thing has been discovered/collected?
Question regarding the gear section! Did they go all Witcher 3 with the random gear chests in the world? Or are the items fixed in each chest? Looking forward to an overpowered early guide
The only thing I don’t like so far is I made a Latina baddie ( she is like 175 tall ) and unfortunately she stays in HEAVY status. I guess I just gotta collect more of the weight boost bugs or maybe just readjust her appearance, it’s just funny coming from bg3 where I can hold so much stuff on each character.
You can use rare healing elixirs to fully restore your health and stamina even if health is missing without having to rest at a camp. But these elixirs are extremely rare and more valuable to use on say an end game boss fight or final boss. Great beginners guide video though. I maxed out Mystic Spearhand and never once thought about using the attack to cover distances or jump from ledge to ledge or roof to roof thanks for that!
I did a twitter cheat sheet on it. Vermund is balanced, elves is magick focused, battal is physical, and dwarves are similar to vermund but increased weight for item in exchange for knockdown or knockdown resist
Love your videos. Can you change your pawns inclination once you choose it? I choose a Mage and their inclination to be straightforward. Will this ruin the experience?
My only gripe with this game is that I find the side quests can be easily missed. I’m fine with everything else. But the fact that the side quests aren’t marked on the map in any way irks the crap outta me.
Cowboy could you do a segment explaining pawns, and what not to do when they’re near you because I find that I run to a chest and they run right off the cliff I have had more pawns die to fall falling off, bridges and and other infuriating things then in a fight. It has to be a way you play to insure they don’t act stupid and need me to revive them every ten seconds
I’ll be honest here, I didn’t agree with Cowboy about his reviews on DD2 and Rise of the Ronin. I thought Rise was great and I was disappointed in DD2 but I have to say I was wrong. DD2 is also phenomenal.
Ha on the first tip I did already a few hours in. The Fighters Guard on Right kept throwing me of as well. Though the switch to Lantern and item use took some adjustment
Why would he do that? He played the game on his pc and gave his review. Of course if he played it on a console and it played like shit he would have a different experience. He bought a super computer for this very reason.
How do you stop drakes from flying away in like a minute? Like I understand you have to destroy the wings, but even when I am targeting them I get bucked off and before I can get back on the drake flew off. Do I need a sorcerer in the party? Or is it just the drake outside Harve that’s super flighty? The one next to the oracle never flew away but the harve drake retreats after taking a bar of damage.
Did I really just draw the short stick with this game because I've spent almost 4 hours in just character creation without being able to get to play, because the game crashes before I'm done with my character. I've been waiting for this game for years and man did it fuck up my day to find out I can't get to enjoy it at least yet.

DLSS does nothing for areas where youre CPU limited. Which is the main issue with the framerate. My gpu is just sitting at 50% in cities while my framerate tanks to the 40s. My cpu is not potato either.
I was about to say the same. Been playing Elden Rng since Christmas, and recently started taking Block and Parry more seriously. Definitely going to switch it up.

(1) Re pawns, you can do an advanced search in the rift menu to find pawns with specific skills, etc. that you want.

The change of right bumper to left is a great idea
A good idea my buddy told me is get level 2/4 in all the vocations early, gives u plent of passives and an armor set for each, to keep or sell
Simply a starter guide made to perfection, simple and concise which scratches that itch that other guides just don’t.

Yeap it works
Yes. If a pawn tells you they know of a chest nearby and you use the "Go" pawn command right after they say that, they will lead you to it.

DLSS does nothing for areas where youre CPU limited. Which is the main issue with the framerate. My gpu is just sitting at 50% in cities while my framerate tanks to the 40s.
My cpu is not potato either.
They are working on the patch from what I understand. Typical moder. AAA gaming.
very nice thanks
Holy shit, i swapped the bumpers too. Just too used to LB shield in souls games. Lol
I was about to say the same. Been playing Elden Rng since Christmas, and recently started taking Block and Parry more seriously. Definitely going to switch it up.
Wish this one released earlier
