Can I beat Dragon's Dogma 2 by ONLY one-shotting enemies?

[@sunbleachedangel]

From playing as a trickster to oneshotting everything, must be quite the contrast

[@biscuitsticks3274]

This was much more fun for sure

[@TwoSevenX]

Merlin isn't casting Maelstrom. He's casting High Maelstrom which does four times the damage. Since you're not the guy that learned up King Arthur, you don't get High Maelstrom.

[@fable23]

Maisters seem to get enhanced versions of their skills, or at least have stats so juiced that it looks that way. The Mage Maister, for example, can cast Celestial Paean without losing all her stamina and passing out at the end. So either she has a special version of the spell that doesn't do that, or she has such an absurd amount of stamina that the game literally cannot take it all.

[@Zinlain]

Some did some datamining and Meisters do have unique versions of Archskills. Video i saw this tidbit on even called Meryn's version "High Maelstrom"

[@Weed_Dante]

That medusa sleep cheese actually doesn't need damage. You can do a light attack with the starter dagger and it'll cut off her head

Just a heads up for next time: You can use Warfarer to farm discipline for every class and you'll level up very quickly for ranks 1-5. By 6, it'll take too long to do it that way, but it's a great way of farming vocations for the early levels.

[@elviskeiskiwannstrom8995]

Well even the warfarer class itself levels slower and when you reach rank 9 the other classes reach 4 so it isn't that effective for farming

[@FirstLast-cg2nk]

@@elviskeiskiwannstrom8995 True, but for some Vocations, just getting to rank 4 will give you access to the augments you'd want for most playthroughs, like the Mage's level 2 that raises magic defense.

[@tiredofmy925]

If someone else hasn't mentioned it, the maister's maelstrom ability is turbo busted to the point where it one shots everything I think. I remember seeing someone bringing the maister to the dragon fight and him one shotting that too.

[@ToliG123]

It definitely doesn’t one shot a drake. Maybe it’s just doing extra to the big dragon because it’s a way bigger crit point.

[@Pewpewalix]

Yeah it's like a "high maelstrom"

Just a slight aside btw, the Bane Archstaff isn't the best one in the game (pre postgame) the best is actually the lion-lords Archistaff you can buy from the sacred arbor =) Has a fairly significant power upgrade especially when fully enchanted =)

[@UNICORNF3TUS]

Awesome video! You left out my favorite one shot tactic though. Switch to warfarer and use a magick bow and the strongest archistaff available. Cast augural flair on any enemy, then land a fully charged saggitate arrow directly on the flair. It literally one shots every enemy in the game. I've killed the sphinx and every type of dragon in one shot this way. You have to quickly land at least 2 of the bows regular shots on the flair immediately after it lands otherwise it will disappear before you can fully charge saggitate but it's easy once you get the rhythm down.

You should use the damage numbers and show HP mod for doing tests. There are a lot of mechanics the game doesn't tell you about, Archer is full of them, which is why people think the vocation it's either trash or broken.

[@brandonnowonline6533]

You can hold a augural flare inside of a high spellhold, manually cast one.... fire off the second one and THEN use your dagger strategy to detonate not 1, but both flares.... the first one will go off first and those explosions will also charge the SECOND one aswell. With this strategy i think you could of saved your unmaking arrow.

[@dontwannabeahero1570]

Passively reaching the sphinx is pain, oh boy do I know that oh do I fucking know that, cause I made the mistake of doing it twice at very low hp and so you know for future use if Medusa is asleep even a light attack from daggers will cut her head lastly the sorcerrer master has a unique version of maelstrom that just kills anything in 1 hit regardless of what it is

[@biscuitsticks3274]

Yo what?! The maister just one shots anything?

[@xamdcrownwell5499]

fun fact. while sleeping the medusa takes a lot of damage to the head, so just a dagger hit can cut it XD

[@jarretirish7281]

I can’t really think of someone else off the top of my head but you can easily use the spell you killed the Minotaur with on another enemy that doesn’t use magic. Maelstrom can be used on some of those easier bosses so if you can find a way to swap some of these kills around it should be completely possible

[@Jankenstein]

Oh.... when I saw a blue skinned man in a circlet doming a Cyclops with a magic bow I thought of Rama Handsome Squidward though.... Both would take up the challenge of killing thirteen terrors in a single blow though, who am I kidding?

[@cloudking2123]

Imagine a run with decanter as the only source of damage

[@esuelle]

Great creativity! My favorite one was the Minotaur one. I'm sure there must be extra 1 shot methods left to be discovered though :)

Just dropping this here: The medusa bow would have been better than the one bought from the volcano island in terms of single hit damage output and you get it for free from the medusa kill.

​@@jdogzerosilverblade299 No, DD2 does not have Vocation Levels as the only thing to grind. As i said, Wyrms Life crystals are a grind. Materials are a grind. Several other things are a grind. Anyway, where in my sentence did you extract my thought that a MMORPG is the most common place to grind in a game ? That was simply an example of one of the genres you will find "grinding" to be a big part of the gameplay. That just shows you know "fuck all" about me, and can't assume things properly. Not in this case, at least. If you're on an assuming trip here, you shouldn't be trying to argue or give examples of absolutely useless information. Everything in any game is a grind, depending on an individuals perspective, and the fact you thought you had to explain that some things have grinding in them just tells me you don't think very far. And to finish, both of the Dragon's Dogma games are extremely easy and do not "require" any grinding to beat. Although i do agree DD2 is easier.
