Role of the Warrior:
The warrior vocation in Dragon’s Dogma 2 combines the roles of a tank and a DPS character. It has the ability to deal significant damage while also withstanding enemy attacks. Warriors excel at knocking down enemies, making them vulnerable and reducing the threat to the group. However, the warrior class may feel slow and clunky compared to other classes, requiring some practice to master.
Charge Attacks and Barge Ability:
Charge attacks are a key feature of the warrior class. By holding down the default attack button, players can charge up their attacks for more power and knockdown effects. Warriors are also equipped with the barge ability, which allows them to shoulder thrust forward and interrupt enemy attacks. This ability is useful for quickly closing the distance to enemies and preventing damage.
Skills and Stamina Management:
Warriors have access to various skills that enhance their combat abilities. Raising Sweep is a recommended skill for dealing area-of-effect damage and knocking enemies backward. Heavenward Sunder is another powerful skill that deals high knockdown damage, especially when aimed at the head. Tidal Fury can be used to block enemy attacks and counterattack. Managing stamina is crucial for warriors, and sprinting, charge attacks, and equip load should be carefully regulated to ensure efficient combat performance.
Augments and Equipment:
Augments and equipment play a vital role in enhancing a warrior’s abilities. Augments that focus on increasing protection, stamina recovery, and threat generation are recommended. In terms of equipment, using the most protective armor is advised to minimize damage taken. Additionally, equipping rings that increase flinch and stagger damage dealt to enemies while reducing flinch and knockdown received can greatly enhance a warrior’s combat effectiveness.
