Dragons Dogma 2 - MYSTIC SPEARHAND Ultimate Guide | Location, Ultimate, Builds, Skills, Tips, & More

[@Dantics]

The best armour and weapons are at the Dragonforge vendor, a quick google search will show where. In terms of smithing style I personally prefer a physical focus, but a balanced approach is also good. Dwarven isn't needed and neither is elven. Enjoy guys!

[@kevinweber3749]

Dwarven Smithing is great if you lack Knockdown power or need more of it. Pretty good for a warrior for example. And Elven is the only one that Focuses on magic so its perfect for Mages and Sorcerers. For Mystic Spearhand i will go with Bathali or Dwarfen Smithing.

[@ZephrusPrime]

I just stumbled into this vocation and the fashion alone is worth this class.

[@Sbryant025]

It has the best for sure. I thought I was going magic archer for a "main" but nah mystic spearhand all the way

[@crimsondemonx]

I found it damn near impossible to use quik fot after scatering bolt. I wish they fixed the timing to not be so damn strict cuz it would be awesome to actually stun a group and teleport in. But as it stands unless they fix it its impossible

[@LordViettner]

I use Wild Fury a TON, you can make a WLC offering to Dragonforged northeast of Bakbattahl and halve the stamina cost of a single move. So, just set that move to Wild Fury, and enjoy!

[@jacobpatterson4381]

You can also add warfares ZEAL to decrease stamina further

I must say, I agree, wholeheartedly definitely my second most love game of all time after the Witcher three and before BG3

[@youhavetoguessit]

They fix the optimization, this'll be game of the year.

[@Planterobeets]

There’s 3 top skills that i never change, Dragoun’s Fain, Bubble Shield and Skiedragoun’s Feste, the fourth can varied. These 3 skills act as defensive and offensive and because there’s no dodge or parry they’re the best at keeping you alive

[@allensmith8613]

Wild flurry is great!

[@CanIGetANumber2]

@@allensmith8613 works pretty well as a dodge too

[@psykepr]

I killed the dragon by running to the tower and shooting it a few times with the ballista on top of it, got the skill when I first met him. Didn't know it was another part until I saw this video.

[@psykepr]

Not sure if its normal, too, but I also got a stronger weapon for the class as well

[@deondreduncan-mack8817]

@@psykepryup that’s one of the best and it’s intended btw you can kill it

[@reddevilkev]

When does the dragon move to other location I ran but i later thought about the balista

[@erismorn1461]

@@psykepri couldn’t loot the dragon because he fell of the cliff 🥺😭

[@StyleshStorm]

This vocation is so flashy and over the top it reminds me of that new character on Tekken 8. So stylish and fast it almost feels out of place but in a good way.

[@zzodysseuszz]

2:47 charge foreboding bolt and when you are doing the whirlwind attack just use the bolt to instantly cancel it.

[@austinplaysgames957]

You can actually defeat the dragon once you enter melve if you use the ballista in the corner of the town. He drops good materials, one of the best duostaffs in the game and the meister skill off the bat

[@CY3ER]

Ah damn, I already returned to Melve and sent the dragon away. Maybe I missed the opportunity to unlock the class until late game. Damn they really sucks.

[@xGravityONEx]

No you can always get it. If you missed the class giver at the dragon attack you can find him at the one coast village that was destroyed by a dragon. You have to do a quest there so that they start rebuilding the village and once they rebuild one if the houses is of the dude who gives you the class (rebuilding takes 1 or 2 days so vasically one rest).

[@Regalieth9143]

I like thief/rogue over everything because you get the skill formless feint, that move makes you feel like you’re in ultra instinct. Plus when you pair the smoke screen with the cutter move, oh my goodness that’s lethal

[@jvstn9662]

Oh yes, same for me bro, its so much different from the rest and climbing on enemies is fun too

[@potatoeOnRooftop]

Btw if you missed the dragon in melve you get the vocation in harvel village from the same guy (hut far east in the village). Nice vid thanks!

[@Spectrezx]

my only personal negative to this class is a lack of a parry/counter. i LIVE for that shit. so satisfying on Thief, Fighter, and Warrior. wish there was a parry>sweep or parry>impale

[@jruizagosto]

Pro tip, not sure if mentioned in the vid as im only a few minutes it. But if you hold and charge your stun ability when you fire it it will break you out of the slashing animation so you dont have to wait for the flury to finish possibly leaving you open for attack

[@BigNopes]

I love anything that looks, feels, or plays like a Dragoon class, only thing missing is a spear named Gae Bolg. I too did the tower thing, except I did it in two shots where everyone is saying it takes 3, only thing I did different was time the shot to score a knockdown because it kept leaving after the first shot. I've also seen people saying they get the special weapon it drops by using the thief's ability to steal loot.

[@Karrdel]

I know I'm late but if you guys were like me and you couldn't get the dragon to spawn or see srigurd in Harve village just go to dragon breath tower near bakbatahl speak to him and he gives you the vocation then continue up the steps to trigger the dragon quest where he joins your party and gives you the maister skill after defeating it

[@gaalattila829]

Dragon Foin skill, misses alot against flying creatures, it also made me go off the cliff couples of times 😂

[@dream8870]

foin doesn’t miss that often it’s just the odd camera angles, but yes i have fell off a cliff multiple times using it 😂

[@RubinKlein25]

I really like it for exploration because you can make pretty long jumps with it

[@johnschmidt7511]

Same I bolted off a few cliffs going after Harry's I anger switched to mystic archer but I missed my jedi so hopefully he can convince to go back to it cus I want to but cliffs 😢 lmao

[@johnschmidt7511]

Harpys*

[@seryphgaming]

I use wild furie with the Stam leech skill for Anti-Large enemies, you can use wild furie on the backs of enemies for metric shitloads of damage, than leech Stam and repeat

[@trza49er]

I thought I needed the sword and board, but this has proven itself more fun and more versatile. Definitely sticking with the spear until I unlock the Warfarer.

[@kevinkaokien2109]

The mirror shield is the second best defense ability the first is the thief ultimate that makes you invulnerable to essentially any damage. All you need to do is pump up your stamina and your set so get a shit ton of stamina potions and you're not dying, solo'd a dragon.

[@Dantics]

To be clear I mean pure defensive skill. The Thief ulti is an offensive one that keeps you safe. The MSH bubble keeps your whole team safe. Over all I prefer the Thief skill though because I prefer offense.

[@reallybigjohnson]

@@Dantics I was wondering what the green bubbles were when I went and fought the dragon at Melve. There must be NPCs that are Mystic Spearhands then.

[@Alvaromm27]

Only one NPC there was a Mystic Spearhand, and he's the "creator" of the class, the bubble skill affects every ally close to you, so all your pawns and any npc doing a mission with you will be protected too​@@reallybigjohnson

[@jesusarmandocontrerasalvar9272]

MS shield is way better, it protects all of your team and prevents all effects and grab attacks , aslong as You keep popping bubbles a dragón can't take them to control your pawns, it also prevrnts some knock backs but theres some attacks that bypass all forms of protections and knock you over eitherway... So MS bubles if You like to play as a team or thief pro Gamer mode of You like to be more selfish

[@dgdailey7572]

​@@reallybigjohnsonThe guy that gives you the mystic spearhand vocation fights the dragon at Melve, if you talk to him there you can get mystic spearhand vocation earlier.

[@rooster6115]

If you kill the dragon that unlocks this class using the ballista in the town, you get the 2nd or 3rd most powerful duospear in the game. Be advised this does break a quest further down the line however.

[@ju5t1ce33]

When I unlocked this class it became my main. The only thing I don’t like is how easy it is to get locked into that twirl. I hate the lack of control and that I can’t cancel out of the animation. But unlocking Warfarer made it better. Spearhand and Fighter vocation are the 2 vocations I have active. Mirour Shelde and Skydragon’s Feste are the 2 skills I chose for when I’m the Mystic Spearhand.

[@kaidgamer]

The way I map it. If it takes me up all the time it will be Y, if it is grounded/keeps me alive more it is A, if it has a more lateral attack it will be X, and I usually just put any extras on B 😂 like the force push or big magic attack

[@Rain1]

Funny I do the same thing, except I swap my lateral attack to B button because that's my dashing and moving distance button

[@jruizagosto]

I see alot of people having issues with not getting the scroll for the ultimate after killing the dragon, is this a bug or are there fixes?

[@nitokagaminen9660]

pro tip: when you come to malve and fight with dragon, don't fight it, use the huge crossbow on the tower 2 shot kill the dragon, then talk with spear dude, you'll unlock the class and he also give you the skill as well

[@jeggzzzz]

Insect Glaive, babyyyy! It's been such a fun class.

[@buddylord3020]

Let's face it, this is basically a jedi. Only with Darth Maul's weapon

[@Master_Matoya]

What positives do you have to say for using the duospear in a Warfarer build? Aside from slotting mirror shield what else would you say would be useful in the build?

[@Dantics]

Dragouns Foin for a rapid way to get into fights. Or, if you're a ranged Warfarer, you can use unto sky or devout offering as a 'get off me' skill (but that's more for laughs). That's about it because Warfarer has, unsurprisingly, a lot of options.

[@robertoppenheimer280]

You can also use the balista on top of the tower to kill the dragon instead of repelling it. I immediately went to it after the cutscene.

[@1kgoodman261]

I tried but it still flew away

[@NastyRage]

Hopefully this helps people. There's loads of ways to get the ability from him. If anyone messes anything up with him then you can max his affinity with gifts. If he doesn't give it to you when it's maxed then you will have to wait till he randomly approaches you( you'll see a little gold marker on your mini map just pop up. ALWAYS check out the random gold markers that pop up on your mini map!!!) He'll want you to escort him somewhere. He led me to a drake. And yes this all took place after I had already killed the infected one he wanted me to in the first place. I got the weapon from the drake but the dude just just disappeared without giving me the skill. Go back to his house after a day has past and he will give you the skill after the escort.

[@TheCultOfCorn]

I essentially just use mystic shield to make my warrior pawn immortal and also protect the mage, my 4th slot I’ve found really doesn’t matter. I just stall until I get a good opening then I deal a health bar of damage out

[@dmonsterlove]

Once im done having fun experimenting with the warrior, im going back to MSH😂

[@johnwilliams8700]

Yo MSH is my favorite one!

Gonna main mystic spear hand obviously gonna max all for the useful auments but gonna max spearhand first so i started fighter now warrior than mage and sorc to mystic spearhand.

[@ethanemerson4862]

What body type would you recommend for the Spear Hand? Buff/heavy for the stagger resistance and extra carry weight, but with the Stamina-stealing skill to counteract the downsides? Or light/scrawny for the extra speed?

[@JonathanACarr]

If you climb the tower in Melve and kill the dragon with the big bolt, you get a great weapon right there.

[@sethoquinn7122]

for some reason I cant seem to ever teleport to the enemy after forbading bolt I dont know what im doing wrong but it never works

[@kaligarivers]

Just so you guys all know, you can enter the desert region and kill the dragon before you ever meet the duo spear guy in Melve. This unlocks the vocation, but seems to prevent you from earning the meister ability. Dont be me lol

[@og2hot]

locate the drake that attacks the village and kill it. You will get his skill

[@mrjackiemoua]

I got mystic spear n thief on #3 spot.. these two are the most op melee combatant styles. 1,2 goto magic archer n mage.. The thief has ultra instinct ... op af Msh is pretty op as well. Stunning and going behind the enemy while using the guard on the whole party

[@KodiakBaby]

Pro tip: you can kill the dragon in melve the first time if u Run up to the Ballistia at the top of the town and fire a couple bolts at it. Once killed talk to the spearhand guy TWICE. First to give u the vocation the second to give u the master skill

[@Dantics]
