Everything you oughta know about Pawn’s in Dragons Dogma 2.
(Pawns are quite talkative to say the least.)
To help you accomplish this, we’ve put together this overview ofPawns in Dragon’s Dogma 2.
There are two types of Pawn: your Main Pawn and Support Pawns.
Pawns talk a lot.
(I know the ladder is there - you mention it every time we walk down this street!)
Pawns can be one of sixVocations- Fighter, Mage,Archer, Thief, Warrior and Sorcerer.
Again, we touch upon this in more detail further along in the guide.
Pawn’s can also be sent on Pawn Quests.
This is when they’re hired by another player and travel alongside them.
You have the ability to set both the quest and reward the player will receive for completing it.
If you want to learn more about Pawn Quests, take a look further along in this guide.
One important thing to remember about Pawns isonly your Main Pawn can level up.
Due to this, you’ll often find yourself switching out your other two Pawns as your adventure continues.
you might evenchange their Vocationif you so choose.
They’ll gather XP alongside you, becoming more powerful and increasing their Vocation Rank too.
When you dismiss a Pawn, you’ll have the chance to give them a rating and a gift.
If this Pawn belonged to another player then they will receive this gift.
Any item a Pawn is holding when they’re dismissed or die will be sent to your Item Storage.
Gocauses the Pawn to act independently to you.
To Mecauses Pawns to approach you.
In this combat, this will cause them to fight by your side.
Waitwill cause Pawns to stop moving and await for your next command where they stand.
If used in battle, this will cause Pawns to stop fighting and instead another way to assist you.
Helpcauses Pawns to focus on healing, recovery and other support roles.
They essentially act as an additional skill for your Pawn.
Though not every Specialisation may seem useful on the surface…
APawn can only know one Specialisationat a time.
It’s always a good idea to check whether a Pawn has a Specialisation when hiring!
After earning the badge, you’ll be able to benefit from their increased ability against said foe.
Pawn’s gain Field Badges the more you camp in a specific region.
Spend a lot of time camping in Vernworth?
Then you’re going to end up gaining progress for that region’s field badge.
Undertaking Pawn Quest’s can help you Main Pawn gain progress on Pawn Badges too.
This will make them more useful in your journey, while also encouraging other players to hire them.
You may even receive some items other players have given them as gifts.
(Thankfully these people can be saved by using a Wakestone.)
To cure Dragonsplague in your Main Pawn, they need to die and then resummon them from a Riftstone.
So yeah - got to murder your Main Pawn to cure Dragonsplague.
Thankfully, the Arisen is safe from Dragonsplague.
