Thank you for this. I just got a Series X today and this is the 1st game I got with it. I'm watching this while it installs. I can't wait to get started

[@LuckyGhost]

@@bwestacado9643 nice! you're in for a treat, its a great game! wish I was playing it for the first time

[@Manos515]

Apparrently the Thief Vocation has an abillity called plunder that u can use on the ghostly clouds at night to steal from them Ferrystones. That solves the problem with the ferrystones. You can also Plunder wakestones like this from different enemies, so you better level up the Thief Vocation and good Plunder :D.

Great tip, thanks for sharing!

There is a 'Wait for Ox cart' sign post next to the bench in the ox cart area. Automatically sets time to ox cart arrival time.

@michaelstrong8841 yeah most of the hate comes from people who can't afford the game . So they shit on it try and spoil it for the rest of us . Yes fps can definitely be better and I'd prefer more accessible fast travel . But on the whole the game is amazing I'm really enjoying it

This game is amazing, and I never even heard of Dragons Dogma until a month ago.

quick tips i havent seen anyone say " If youre on the road and heavy pass everything to a pawn you rented , dismiss them so your stuff goes to the storage and then reinvite them before they walk away". It might be a bug thought so it could get patched.

[@LuckyGhost]

Edit: so i tried this, and it doesn't work. if you try to rehire the pawn before they walk away they say "i can't rejoin you yet" but you could dismiss them and hire a pawn walking the roads to receive a similar outcome

[@eddyram4932]

It’s not a bug, that’s an intended mechanic👍 always pass items to pawns, especially fighters/warriors since they can naturally carry more than others.

[@drewbienewbie03xx81]

​@eddyram4932 you misunderstood what he's saying. You can dismiss a pawn, gear gets sent to storage, re hire them before they walk away.

Pretty sure the game pulls enhancement material from storage. I never carry it around on me and can still always upgrade when needed.

[@eddyram4932]

It does, store all your enhancement materials in storage and you can also store a lot of the items used for crafting potions and the like. Only keep a few on hand to save weight, and you will always find more on the field👍

I got this game for my birthday recently and was completely overwhelmed with all of the obvious mechanics the game was using but telling me nothing about. I appreciate this guide. Aside from the useful info, it's made me excited to get right back into DD2. Thanks!

[@toddsimone7182]

If you go up to the sign near the ox cart you can choose to wait for it instead of sitting on the bench and keep trying. It's also important to know you can run into ox carts along your travels and jump on it mid way. I took the one to Melve but couldn't find a way back to Vernworth since there's no oxcart station in Melve (so basically a one way ride) but during my voyage I ran into one and took it the rest of the way.

[@SaintsFlow1k]

(Tip for camping) If you kill all surrounding enemies before sleeping, you’re less likely of getting attacked. You can also repack your camping kit by walking out of the radius. Hope that saves on weight😅

[@KL-os2sr]

Omg. Thank you for talking natural and using clear and concise language to explain it all without rave music it’s rare nowadays. All these channels sound like they just drank a liter of Mountain Dew and I can only stand to watch 10 seconds. Subbed

[@DESHPLEASE]

Most thorough and easy to follow guides out there! 🏆

[@pragmaticeagle4832]

The pawns that generally get hired most often are pawns that have quest guide (meaning the owner has completed the quest your doing) & the pawns that have pawn quests (for example, many offer 10k gold for killing an ogre or griffin). If you have the gold or an abundance of nice items, use them as pawn quest rewards & watch your pawn usage shoot up.

[@KodaTheDoggo]

I really appreciate u taking the time to explain all of this! I didn't want to have to restart 1000 times just wildly figuring things out 😂♡

[@alexsawyer9652]

My character is a 6ft 8inch 300 pound slaying machine but I accidentally fell down a considerable height and thought for sure I was dead but one of my hired pawns a 5ft tall sexy female thief caught me at last second and holding me close like a baby god I love this game😂

[@tamuc08]

Thanks for making this! Your Baldur's Gate Beginner's Guide was so helpful that I immediately hit play when I saw this in my search for a DD2 guide. And you did not disappoint. It took barely a minute to learn something new and helpful. Great work!

[@LuckyGhost]

Heck ya :))

[@Yorabasura]

This video is going to be essential 😭❤️ gonna be watching it as I play.

[@grege5074]

regarding the pawn levels, if you really like one you can "favourite the pawn" then search for favourited pawns to see what level they are at. For instance, I hired a really good pawn at lvl 10, got me to almost level 20, came back at 35 a few days later and they were level 40 (i guess, whoever created him plays more than i do) and it was WELL worth the RC investment to rehire them.

[@kcraider2166]

Sorry if this has already been posted but getting in the water with your main character does NOT kill you. It just resets you back on nearby land. It will kill your pawns though. Very informative video.

[@Wandering_78374]

A heads up. The oxcart. There is a sign right next to the bench that you rested on and you can choose to wait til next oxcart trip. It will skip automatically to the next morning. You can also use that to pass days of time in a few seconds.

[@ntmetroid]

Regarding ox carts - 1) they have signs next to them that will let you wait until the next one is leaving and 2) they can be attacked even when you doze off, so if you arent careful when theyre attacked you can lose your cart and have to walk the rest of the way

[@byronruano2022]

Oh I'm at loss Guage section, you can also use an all heal to fully restore you're entire hp bar. Although they seem way more rare than ferrystones until late game, then there's an npc in the elves village that sells one. Resting a few days can respawn it, same with the ferrystones. Amazing video though fr man wish I seen this when I first started. Totally didn't know that npcs that die go to the closest morge. RiP🤣🤣🤣

[@angeldillemuthactor]

Just trying the game. It's super slow, but I'm enjoying exploring and learning. It's pretty janky too, but in a fun goofy way.

[@Grains_of_truth]

When you change your or your pawns vocation and gear, place that armour and weapons not relevant in storage. That way, you have the gear needed for the next time you switch vocations for you or your pawn. For example: you are a Warrior and change vocation to mage (switching with your pawn).

[@ARZATEVELASCO]

[@mushypee1]

Great video. Apparently permanent stat increases to the stat, only benefits the vocation you choose? If you want to mid max. I'm hearing if you want to play as M.Archer, It's best to choose a Mage at the start as the maigic star will carry over or is dependent on what weapons and armour you have equipped? Im confused how this works?

[@eddyram4932]

There’s no need to do that in this game. That was a thing in the first game. They changed it in this game to where you are able to level any class at any point and switch without too much of a stat difference because most of your stats come from equipment. Just play what you want to play and don’t worry about min-maxing. If you enjoy playing things you don’t like, by all means do so, but just know you do not need to at all.

[@derieksimon6260]

Sweet video. Thanks for the tips 🤘🏼🤪🤘🏼

[@AJ-HawksToxicFinger]

I am so grateful I am not having any performance issues other than two odd crashes - this game is amazing and honestly am confident I will get my money's worth. I wish I could personalize my character more since it's a single player game but that tells me it is likely coming down the wire via micro transactions. Give us GEAR DYE for free. :)

[@DrSinisster]

Dont forget to favourite Pawns you liked, so when they level up you can hire them again in the future. Likely the Main whos pawn it is has kept them working quite well.

[@tbone5757]

Since this is a beginners guide, you really should point out 2 things. #1 place a marker where you found your first seeker token. #2 the greatsword and archistaff you find in that early cave, the mines northwest of Vernsworth, DON'T SELL THEM! You're gonna need them to unlock the first two vacations.

You can go to the ox cart marker signs and select wait for ox cart instead of resting on benches.

[@dreamerofthorns]

I learned that you aren't dead until the screen comes up in a particularly funny way. The game won't stop everything and say "you died" if your body is still in motion. I got hammered by a minotaur and flung across the fucking valley we were in and went "wait a moment. What if I healed?" Lo and behold. I did.

[@picornav]

Great video. Just wanted to say thank you!

[@markymark2820]

39:12 be careful with this one. You still need to take precaution bc running out of potions isn't the only reason you can fully die. If you get hit hard enough by an enemy it can and will fully kill you regardless if you have potions or not. So still be very careful.

[@stampiboy1]

[@Virtuous_Exile]

I am loving this game. I never played the original, and I definitely feel I missed out for too long. In a market flooded with games that insist on treating players like toddlers, a game that leaves it up to the player, the way this game does, is top tier imo.

Just fyi, the brine will get rid of dragonsplague from your main pawn. Throw them in then go to a riftstone to retrieve them.

[@JesserDaddy]

Oh maaan i had no clue there was a cart to check point rest town at vernworth.. i spent about 12 hours in real time over 3-4 days running around the map trying to find it. Came back to vernworth after getting tired of a pawn saying follow me to return the sword and staff to the vocation master dude. We got back near the bridge and an ogre popped out that killed me in 2 hits and destroyed my entire party. I was spamming follow me like crazy. It was a 5 minute battle with a God Ogre and for some reason an endless stream of goblins, wolves and saurians. One of the saurians was actually unkillable too. His health went down half way and then never went any further. Not sure if it was a bug or if anyone else encountered this near vernworth bridge? It exploded the ox cart walking by in 1 hit. I fought at least a dozen ogres but this one was as strong as the main dragon. I barely got my pawns back and finally ran away after using 15 health potions while on my way to the dirt

[@HPDlEHPDlE]

Did you create your own character, and that’s you, right, like really really you?! It looks really well done. I wish I had the skill or knew someone that could make me, any ideas?

[@vindex7309]

For people considering classes, I have to say that rogue is actually busted. Two rings of might, a mage with an elemental endowment, a good set of daggers and the rogue meister skill are all you need. You will literally never get hit if you balance your stamina and you will do a carp ton of damage. You have a counter/assassinate, a disengage, an engage - frankly, it’s broken.
