Dragon's Dogma 2 - 17 MISTAKES That Will Ruin Your Game - INFINITE Weight & Gold, Quest Lock & More!

[@RageGamingVideos]

I feel like the message has been lost here, the video is encouraging you to indeed put items on Pawn 3 & 4 to use their weight limit as the items go back to you when they die or are desummoned. I don't know how Cotton got this wrong in his wording as I know he knows how it works, it's really disappointing and I'm sorry.

[@TheOmegau]

I'd suggest correcting that in the video before (more) people come away with incorrect info.

[@Captnjared]

So what happened was cotton said that if a summoned pawn dies the stuff goes back to the owner he said it during minute 2 and that's not the case I'm not sure how to help but I'd put text over the video the if possible

The problem with the encumbrance system isn't actually the weight but the ridiculous amount of time that the inventory management takes. If we had a "transfer multiple" option like we do with the storage, it would aldeady be so much less time consuming than it is rn.

The only thing you'd ever lose is gear you directly equipped a hired pawn with, and the game warns you about this.

To add one more. Use the pilfer / plunder skill once on every enemy, pair it with ensnare for easy use. This can get you wake stone shards, ferrystones, ripe fruit, unripe fruit, gear, healing consumables, gold, materials. Its just that good. Take for example Saurians have a high chance of giving you fish but I've also very frequently gotten wake stone shards from them. Goblins (the red ones) give apples, grapes, and occasionally a gemstone. Thieves give healing items and gold. Regular Zombies give healing items, meat ( ! ), and gold teeth. The 10 billion wolves you'll run into will give you meat, most of the time rotten, and rarely a wake stone shard. I've also gotten a warrior only helmet and some risque leggings from some cyclops. Of course this list is not exhaustive, these same mobs could give more than I've listed here.

[@grantlawrence4600]

You can definitely have new items in stock at merchants by leveling up their affinity. I talked to a roaming merchant. Looked into what he sold. Gave him a gift he loved. Went back in and he was now selling a rare item. "New" with the red icon next to it.

Knockdown Resistance does NOT aid in stopping you from Flinching. Someone tested this by going all out dwarven with armor that has the highest base value in knockdown resistance, and a basic b*tch goblin still flinched him.

[@tuckbot2855]

Maybe not from basic flinch but that isn't the only thing in the game that is a stun, you can literally be knocked down and if unlucky are forced into the crawl state which I rarely survive if im forced into it. While I'm not 100% sure that's what it does it'd be my guess, that it makes you harder to take off your feet. You'll still flinch. If it negated flinches there wouldn't be any danger in this game.

[@urtoryu_dy_althraidn]

VERY important notice, if hired pawns die, you do NOT lose the items. Just making it clear because it really scared me when I first heard of it and after testing myself, you don't lose anything. So yeeting pawns off a cliff works just as well as dismissing (except the part about not being able to rate and gift the pawn of course, that's the trade off for how fun it is)

Anyone wanting to do that Gold Cheese w the Fruit; just Pick/Buy all the Fruits you see, and when a stack of it gets Ripe, use the Pawn Storage Cheese method to deposit it all. Once you get to somewhere w the high Buy Prices, THEN pull out all your normal Fruit, Doze till it's Ripe and Sale. That is to say; you ain't gotta camp a bench and be like... NOT playing the game to make them extra dollars. It's 'slower' over time, but at LEAST it's still moving Forward w your Game while earning some easy extra coin.

I thought of an infinite wakestone trick but havent tried it out myself yet. Simply search for low level pawns like lvls 1-10 of any class etc but with the quests for wakestones.

About the degrading food and plants, don't they have air tight flasks ( or jars) in DD2? You combine a flask and an item to create a "kept" item that doesn't degrade. I use them all the time in DD1

[@deathhunter391]

yeah they have a air tight its called the storage chest lol but being serious they didn't bring that system from one over unless you count the no rot timer of the storage chest

[@bwestacado9643]

@@deathhunter391 I actually like that better. I didn't know plants rotted and lost a bunch of good crafting materials in my chest because I didn't put flowers in flasks. Thanks for the information though, I appreciate the heads-up

[@arcanumelite4853]

technically there are 2 things i know of that actually can 1 shot you... SPOILER Medusa's gaze can instantly kill you if you are petrified and the attacks from the brine monsters in the unmoored lands can instantly kill you just as though you fell in water.

[@corbenikgaming7688]

Not sure how you do it but I've never seen an option for giving a NPC a gift?

[@Algéchien]

In ps5 u need to press square

[@pauperslament3467]

The option is in the button prompts. Should be the left one.

Do Summoned Pawns return to their Arisen with Gifted Loot and loadout and Knowledge when beating the Game? I can't obviously dismiss the Pawns when I'm at the new game+ Menu...

Keep in mind guys that all fruit in your storage goes bad when you start NG+

[@SuperUnnamedplayer]

I know this might sound weird but in my opinion if you're going to optimize the fun out of the game like people do with the fruit trading, you might as well just skip the grind and cheat (if you're on PC that is). If all you do is wait, buy, wait, buy, wait, buy, deposit, repeat, you're no longer playing a game but rather doing a chore. If you still have fun doing it, then fine, I couldn't do it. I'm not a person to scoff at grinding for a bit, I myself use the lands around Batthal to grind for gold and exp, but whilst it's a lot less profitable, I'm still playing the game in an enjoyable way.

[@Canis.Lupus.Arctos]

Many have said the same but this is so important I'll rehash here: when pawns 3 and 4 (borrowed ones) are dismissed OR _DIE_ all stuff in their inventory will go to your stash (apart from their original gear), I've been using them as _couriers_ to my storage since, literally, the very beginning of the game. I think a correction to the vid is in order since this is _very_ important, and I've seen one too many content creators teaching this wrong... everybody makes mistakes, so I won't blame you guys, but please correct it ASAP so to not spread... cheers

[@Brunhaam]

I gave Ulrika a bundle of flowers and now she leaves me ferry stones 😮 I guess one bundle maxes out her affinity

[@fadingghost9723]

Affinity is SUPER easy to max out, I did the quest to save the elven village chiefs daughter and it maxed out his affinity immediately.

My trove of useless trivia facts gathered from being a Dungeon Master for 16 Years wanted me to let you know that the woman who runs a brothel is often called a Madam or Madame.

[@jungchoothian2039]

I missed Wilhelmina final quest…the window was so short I didn’t expect to interact with her again. I checked in with her before leaving the city for the next part but she didn’t say anything so thought I need to wait for story to progress It’s technically a bug that help you carry more weight…. Lol pun intended Btw if I brined the pawns, I lose my items??? I thought they would go back to my storage

[@austinmurtagh4592]

I find it funny that she's dos dwarven smithing because if you read the book in front of the door it states that Brokker practices in bakbattahlian smithing so it would make more sense that thats how she was trained in but ill take the dwarven smithing an be happy

[@Cyriacus58]

? If a pawn dies, items do NOT go to their master it goes to your inventory. Only wearables you equip on them go to their master.

[@Darkness_466]

for ferrystones just use a thief and enjoy the game , he will steal them from enemys

[@DaftRabbit09]

That gold farming method was exhausting listening to, and pointless AF considering how easy and quick it is to kill specific mobs for gold drops or get pawns with quests in which their player offer gold rewards.

[@Amadeus_]

Wait, so how do you max a shop vendor's affinity?

[@Dmitchell579]

Shop with them a bunch of times until you unlock discounts or give them gifts

[@Amadeus_]

@@Dmitchell579 You can keep spamming them gifts without time skipping to continue? Either way, thanks.
