Some skills I often used but didn't fully understand until years later: Divine Defense: Makes you impervious to grabs Clairvoyance: You don't actually have to be facing the enemy for the move to go off Hindsight Sweep/Strike: Can be cancelled by holding shield after the initial dodge, and in doing so you don't lose stamina Just knowing what Divine Defense and Hindsight Sweep can do makes a massive difference for fighter class. It allows you to fight bosses up close and personal without fear of getting grabbed, and gives you a literal dodge skill to avoid any attacks that would consume too much stamina if you blocked. That being coupled with Dragon's Maw which can interupt any enemy attack at will makes it one of the more fun classes in the game even compared to Mystic Knight and Assassin.

[@MarztheStoic]

Question nils. Why do mage and sorcerer pawns cast in front of enemies like dragons instead of casting behind them. Is it because of their script or do they have to be taught how to?

[@Nihil0.0]

Because you are. They have to be in the screen (in a sense) they need to reset to your side on occasion, and this puts them close to you. Sometimes yes, even if you are far they will place them selves in the front, and that would likely be because the center of the screen is the target, and they need to be in the screen for you to see them (or at least the program says so)

It would be really nice if this game had an option to refund skills like the bolide example, it would be ideal to have a regular bolide on a sorcerer pawn but if you accidentally purchase high bolide they will always charge high bolide even if its just one enemy. GG save file.

[@harryunderwood9387]

This. I've said this in regards to mostly Sorcerer and Mage skills, but also the Fighter and Warrior's attention-gain moves, which keep them still longer. Would be a nice quality of life improvement, but sadly not happening.

[@DJWeapon8]

Next game should just leave both the base skill and the upgraded skill available.

[@harchierplebbington9397]

Pretty sure for spell casting the advanced form of the spell only tacks on a stronger version if you charge it for longer, meaning the original spell is still available. This even applies to weapon enchantments. In the video you can see him use regular bolide after charging only for 9 seconds

[@SchradeDemise]

@@harchierplebbington9397 he meant the pawns, they will always cast the most powerful version of anything. My sorcerer pawn barely cast anything on the battle cuz they go for lvl 2 or 3 versions and something always interrupt them, so upgrading their skills can result in them using their skills less

Nothing is helping my stamina and I looked on a few pages stating that 4945 is max Without rings.but can't seem to reach it. Any reasons?

[@Nihil0.0]

With 4600 health and 3300 stamina, it sounds like more fighter or more warrior was leveled. 200 levels as Strider gets you 3400 health and 4500 stamina. 190 levels as Ranger gets you 4900 stamina. The Red vocations get more health and less stamina, the Blue get low health and low stamina and yellow gets high stamina and low health.

Friendly reminder to all you Mystic Knight users, holding down the summon button for certain MK abilities/spells will charge them up, allowing you to use the more powerful effects you read about at the inn/skill place.

Do you teach the fighter augments presiecence which will help me master perfect block while playing as a Mystic Knight

[@Nihil0.0]

I usually don't use Prescience. I would rather have another augment. If you get rid of it, you learn the timing and then wont need it anymore.

[@JamesJones-mt9co]

@@Nihil0.0 so basically don't use it because I have not been using it and every now and then I get a perfect block you're basically telling me just keep playing as a Mystic Knight so did Ghost say that would you recommend practicing perfect block against the UR dragon

@@Nihil0.0 also I'm watching your video on how to defeat death pre Damian will this work with any of the split vocations

You can gravity kill Death with all, but Fighter and Warrior. Holy Focused bolt, or Magical Gleam, or blast arrows

Great gamble means that it's a chance to get high damage, or low damage. It's like a lottery ticket. You win or you lose.

extremely useful video, also nice to see that once again, the best way to use ranger skills is to just level as ranger and nothing else.

I always say each vocation gets the stats that they need.

[@christophercollins3632]

Well, Ranger’s stamina growth from level 100+ is equal to other classes, so you’re free to mix and match, if you are min/max stamina.

[@bboy458]

Sooo... what game is this? Randomly showed up in my feed and it doesn't say the game anywhere lol.

Hehehe. Good ol' youtube. It's Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen. Available on all platforms, but recently the switch.

I dont get how bolide could be confusing if you read its description it's pretty clear what it does it's a higher level fire spell.

[@TheXBladeist]

Yes, but it only hits 2 meteors per target, making it a waste on rooms that arent full of things.

[@temperedfangs1486]

So i have a question for everyone here. What is with the sudden popularity skyrocket of this game? I have been playing Dragons Dogma since like 2012 and am curious as to why its just now getting popular

[@Nihil0.0]

The Switch release was recent, so youtube has pushing Dogma content, and then additionally there is an Anime in the works, which may have drawn attention.

[@temperedfangs1486]

@@Nihil0.0 oh! Ok! Neat im glad to see this game finally getting the attention in deserves now only if dragons dogma online would go NA that would be even better

If you can cast meteors and tornadoes at max destruction even against a singular bat *do it*

[@logan-zf2wr]

Bro your channel is awesome. I've always loved dragons dogma, but I had no idea just how ignorant I was of some the games systems. I've learned so much from your videos, especially the class schematics, and the guides on how to get your new playthroughs running quicker. DD is an amazing game, and im really grateful for the amount of work you put into all these videos. I don't think there's a single one where I didn't learn something. I'm amazed that you were able to make me love this game more than I did already. I hope one day we get a DD2, or DDO in the west or he'll even a DD remake/remaster with all the intended content like the moon. Ty again for the work.

[@cameronbordeau850]

If your playing on PC do yourself a favor and head to the nexus and mod the game. So many good quality of life changes there. Example - change the cast speed buff from articulacy to something meaningful. Or make bolide not waste 80% of it's shots on dirt. My all time favorite is to mod out or increase your carry capacity and reduce stamina use while running.

[@DaDoubleDee]

what's that stuff floating around your mage?

That's the Ancient armor set, from the black cat. Has the green floaties effect

What spell did you use to curse the ogre?

Magic Archer's Perdition spell. Also thrown skulls will curse, but it requires many skulls usually

Does G Bolide not make the meteors more potent?

[@Nihil0.0]

No, between the 3 levels each meteor has the same damage. Just number of meteors dropped changes.

I've finally found my long lost brother... #NihilFamily

[@Nihil0.0]

Yep, there's a few of us out there

[@CapitalGearGaming]

There is a mod for the PC version that allows Bolide to hit all meteors, which makes it much more viable. Some can argue that'd make it too Overpowered but all the skills basically are, the mod just puts Bolide up there with the others like Glicel and stuff. Still wouldn't use Grand Bolide, that's better used with something like Glicel but it's nice having it be actually usefull.

[@illusoryveils]

I don't know if that Splitter no fall damage was patched out on the PS4 version or if I need to have a lighter character, but that absolutely will not work for me. I've tried it multiple times in multiple locations including Duskmoon Tower. And no I'm not jumping first.

[@Nihil0.0]

I'm not sure about the PS4 or XB1 or Switch. That would suck if it were changed. That would be a silly thing to "fix"

[@illusoryveils]

@@Nihil0.0 Actually I guess it was weight. I made my character lighter and now it works.

[@Nihil0.0]

Good to hear. I've been telling everyone as far as I know it works on all platforms.

[@Denamic]

~1000 hours in the game across multiple platforms, reaching level 200 at least 5 times, and I legit didn't know rebalancers stack

[@qeter129]

If your on pc I would recommend downloading a mod to "fix" bolide it makes the skill more competitive with malestorm but doesn't replace the functionality of other spells. Shame that seism is so under preforming.

[@Nihil0.0]

I did not know about the Bolide mod, but I stay away from mods that change the mechanics since many viewers here are from all platforms, I gotta have the similar results. But also I don't have a problem with Bolide, it serves it's purpose pretty well. And yeah Seism is not very useful
