The best vocations in Dragon’s Dogma 2

Your Vocation defines your role in combat in Dragon’s Dogma 2. Everything from your skills to what weapons and armor you can use is tied to this class. You will pick from just a handful at the beginning of the game, but can easily change Vocations later on, as well as unlock more than twice as many new options than what you start with. It can take a while to really get a feel for a Vocation and how it performs in combat, as well as to look through all of its skills and augments, before knowing if it’s worth sticking with to level up.

The main downside to this class is it has the lowest base stats, but that is a small price to pay for how versatile you can be.

Mystic Spearhand
