So, has anyone some impressions of the fighter and warrior classes vocations? Are they as dull as they usually tend to be in RPG's or did Capcom actually invest some fun Devil May Cry gameplay into them?

So, I managed to bag myself the only copy that my local brick and mortar had, so as soon as my son has his midday nap I'll be busy creating out a decent looking character and Pawn.

So, I finally got to make my own pawn. If anyone wants help from a level 6 mage pawn look up xbox profile: Friegolit and pawn name Jairah.

So, I'm currently running around as a Strider and I could use some help in what to focus on since I feel awfully weak. I just killed the Hydra and it feels like I'm just doing slivers of damage against bandits unless I'm buffed with an elemental weapon spell. I did get the tangle skill which pretty much paid for itself in hilarity, since it allowed me to snare bandits into pretty little parcels that I threw over a cliff repeatedly.

Goddamnit, the Warrior gameplay videos on the Dragon's Dogma website really makes want to switch my Strider into a Warrior. The Berserk stuff really makes it even more tempting..

So, do anyone have some helpful hints for someone who is entertaining the notion of going Strider->Assassin.

So, did I miss a quest regarding Quina along the way? I completed the escort quest where you take her through the Mistwood and meet the "witch" of the forest. I've completed the quest where you have to haul rear end from the giant tomb underneath the pawns main base. When I took a detour along a river I found an abbey with a bunch of nuns and Quina as well. I know that she was talking about seeking out the church for my "condition" but was there supposed to be an escort quest to get her there as well?.

So I decided to try out the Assassin class after leveling mostly as a Strider with a few levels of Fighter thrown into the mix. I'm still trying to get used to the loss of the ensnare ability that the Strider had but I'm also having great fun with some of the sword skills that the Assassin gets. Are there any "must have" skills from the Dagger and Sword trees for the Assassin, in order to make leveling this vocation a bit faster?

I just tried the "Easy Kill" Dagger skill as an Assassin

I've almost maxed out the Assassin vocation and I'm thinking about trying out either the Warrior or start to branch out into Mage->Sorcerer->Mystic Knight in order to try out another playstyle but I'm not quite sure yet. Do the Warrior vocation give anything worthwhile for a character that's been mostly Strider/Assassin during 35 levels?

How the gently caress am I supposed to escort Reynard past the female bandit lair without him running straight into a goddamn melee? Hell, the last time he managed to get chomped by the cyclops that apparently the bandits are keeping around as a watchdog. At least it made for a funny scene before the "Mission Failed" sign came up..

Oh man, I guess I'll have to roll with a Fighter/Warrior someday because for once we have actually good looking armour sets that aren't from the Blizzard/Games Workshop school of "BIGGER PAULDRONS!".

So, my nephew erased my saved game by mistake since he didn't know about the single save system in this game. Not much to do but to start over with a new character. I think I'll start out as a fighter in order to give myself some extra survivability in the early levels, even if I'll miss the swiss army knife that is the Strider.

So, out of curiosity, do anyone have a lot of experience of the Mystic Knight vocation? Is it mostly a defensive Paladin style of class or does it have some good offence as well?

neetz posted:It has massive offensive capabilities, particularly with a high magic stat and the magic boosting augments. Ruinous Sigil will carry with it whatever your weapon is enchanted with (and a MK can enchant their weapon with any element and the group's with a single spell) and absolutely devastates most enemies. Place a fire sigil underneath a wyrm and watch the health melt away. You can place four Great Cannons on top of one another for twelve homing shots when you strike it, all capable of bearing an element. If one of your pawns hits it, that will send out extra shots too. Place a Ruinous Sigil on top of those four balls and bam, there goes like a dozen shots extra flying out like crazy. This tends to kill the frame rate as so many balls of magic are flying around the screen but it will kill rooms full of enemies. You have all the utility of weapon enchantments, the incredible Abyssal Anguish (which, though it implies otherwise, does not override your current enchantment) and can wear Warrior class armor and pack maces that carry a serious punch.

Samurai Sanders posted:Does anyone actually use gold weapons? I never see pawns equipped with them. I've been selling them off since htey tend to be worth a pretty penny but with my luck it'll probably turn out that they are needed for a quest or somesuch. Also, my Pawn just switched inclination from Challenger/Scather to Scather/Challenger. What is prefered on a Mage pawn?

Regarding the Land of Opportunity quest. How do you even get the option to to buy the house for them instead? No matter what I do I end up with evicting the family and paying for their expenses without even getting a prompt to buy the house. Do I have to avoid talking to certain family members or what?

Kagon posted:So here's what I did to get that option: I went after the kid first and talked to him at each area to convince him to leave. I then talked to the wife outside the alehouse and finally Jasper. The key seems to be immediately going back to Fournival and offering to buy the house for them. I noticed that if I just talked to Jasper, my pawn would suggest buying the place, but it wasn't an option yet. Try doing it in that order and immediately going to Fournival, as time has to pass for the wife to make up her mind that they should leave.

Well, I have to agree that most pawns seems to be small, demure girls with the biggest bosom available but I recently hired a pretty awesome looking mage named Peggy who got the weight slider increased and one hell of a set of thunder tighs. I've outleveled her by 4 or 5 levels but she's such a drat good support mage that I don't want to let her go.

So, do the merchant pawn in the encampment ever get anything new in stock? I've got around 200 000 Riftcrystals in store and I'm simply curios whether it's only good for buying new hair/eye colours and renting higher level pawns?

Krackleburt posted:*sigh* The rift is a frustrating place sometimes... My pawn and I both roll with physical classes, so I'm usually in there looking for Mages/Sorcerers. And it's always the same process: First I have to dismiss about fifty half-naked, 13 year old girls before I can find a normal looking pawn. Then I have to sift through those to find ones with the abilities I actually want. Then the time comes when I find the perfect pawn, with an awesome spell combination, only to scroll over and see they're a Guardian. Then I have to start all over again.

Haha, wow. I sure hosed up the quest where Madeleine and the weaponshop owner asks for a an Idol. Turns out that I accidentally gave the weaponshop owner a fake version, needless to say he was not pleased and wouldn't accept the real one. Oh well, I hope that Madeleine has some good stuff instead for my Strider/Assassin

So I charged up my Arc of Deliverance ability, and I slammed my triple headed hammer right into that fuckers skull, instantly killing it. That ability is just so much fun to pull off when timed just right. I'll never tire of that ability.
