REMEMBER: If another Arisen gives you rotten meat/fish/fruit or dead flowers, it means that he has detected that your pawn is infected.
Is that like rift morse code?
@@blytzace more or less, yeah
Ohhhhhh damn I’ve been giving rotten food because I’m a d!ckhead
my pawn received those but she was never infected or anything so I don't know, her inclination is straightforward though and she has blue eyes
This doesn't really add up because most people will just kill the pawn outright to "cure" them, meaning they will not receive a rating or a gift. Many players don't even offer gifts to begin with. Getting something rotten could just be someone's messed up way of saying thanks, or that your pawn was unhelpful.
Thank you for being the only damn person who made a short, concise video of the symptoms! Very, very helpful instead of the "this will brick your save!!! 😢" garbage.
I actually want to thank you! Because that’s exactly what I would’ve said if I were a viewer, & that’s exactly why I try to make my content in such a manner. It’s good to know people appreciate the work. 😁
@@TheRoundTableHold I'm sure that there are many more that never post. I try to post good things, but if I don't like something, I don't post or say anything neg.
I meant I would’ve said it to myself. But there’s nothing wrong with this person or people voicing their opinions, you can voice a negative opinion without it being disrespectful, it’s basically criticism. You need constructive criticisms to learn & grow, but I agree that people should make content without all the clickbait. Just simply make content that people want to see & the rest will come naturally. That’s how you found my video right? I also agree with you as well, sometimes you should keep it to yourself.
The Headache was the immediate noticible thing for me when I first encountered this, aside from the pop up I got when I had just hired a new pawn. I walked all my pawns to the shore near the Volcanic Island and stood idle for a bit to see which one displayed any unusual behaviour, and yup, that new pawn was definitely gone off the dragon juice. I tossed all three of em in the sea lol
Bro gave them the suspect line up 🤣
I rarely toss mine, although, I've tossed a few unsavory NPCs. The dude that was chewing out Ulrika in melve met the brine along with a few of the soldiers.
For Pawns, I release them with a decent gift. After all, it's not their fault that they got infected. With my pawn, I heard that if you carry them into the brine with you it impoves their affinity. I don't know if this is true or not, but it sounds like a decent thing to do rather than, "By the Gods, get away from me!"
When I play an RPG, I usually play as if I'm the person playing the way I would in real life. I understand that you can go around killing whoever and a gamer has the freedom to do anything they want and be a big BA. That's ok, t's a game. I'm just not that way.
this is literally the perfect video with real examples. thank you
@@table928 thanks for the feedback! I’m glad you found the video helpful.
I just got into the habit of pressing the "Go" & "To Me" at least once in battle and checking eyes before using tavern it's nice they made it easier for the newer players to notice it
Yeah caught mine and threw that butt in the brine
Hopefully they add an actual cure, so we don’t have to murder them every time lol.
It was fine the way it was all you had to do was pay attention and you'd catch it
You are right, but it's better now. The eyes look cooler and the pawns talk more and have more animations dedicated to it.
Spitting is normal for Straightforward pawns, so each inclination has their own tells.
The same rules apply to every pawn inclination, straightforward are the only exceptions
@@TheRoundTableHold Yeah, Straightforward tells seem to be more dialogue oriented. They spit, sit a lot of the time when idle. They will boast much of time in combat about how amazing we were , so you have be aware the 'ultimate power' type things lol. I let my pawn run full Dragon's Plague in the Unmoored World to see all of her new actions and dialogue lines. Some of it was pretty hilarious. If you haven't run a Straightfoward pawn, I highly recommend it :).
Yeah exactly, it’s when they start talking about how powerful they are or holding their heads is when you need to look out, I think straightforward pawns have the most unique personalities in the game, unfortunately I do hire them the least because of the constant sass lol. I do have a straight forward main pawn on my other account. 😁
@@TheRoundTableHold My main pawn, I leveled everything on her and then kept her as fighter. I just let her go now on NG++. She's a holy terror 😁! I always play melee so I can be in middle of it with her. She even has a victory roar and jumps in the air in celebration when she's kicked some ass. I don't if other inclination do that or not? 🤔I know a lot of people hate the pawns. For me, it's one of the best thing about DD2, along with the exploration. If one of them says 'I know where X is', I tell to show me. I've found more caves and new passageways that I never would have found without the pawns showing me. Good times!
@scottsmith1652 that sounds cool, 😎 yea the different inclinations or vocations have varied battle celebrations. I only run melee vocations as well, love the combat. The solo runs are cool but Dragon’s Dogma isn’t Dragon’s Dogma without the pawns. They bring a whole different life to the game, drop your pawn ID if you’re on PlayStation, I’ll hire her.
Meeting random pawns along the trail that have pulsing red eyes get the brine treatment. Only had to throw my own pawn into the brine once so far.
I've notice sometimes when I get random pawns my pawns start talking about how she knows theirs disease that pawns can get and that I sure watch out as it can spread pawn to pawn. I wander if this indicates that one of the random pawns is infected.
It would be a good hint, but nah. It’s just regular pawn chat. I’ve heard it a bunch of times & none of the pawns were infected.
I don't noticed my normal straightforward pawn spitting after battle anymore. I think they now left that animation for infected pawns only
Really? If that’s the case, I welcome the change. The less traits the straightforward pawns share with infected pawns, the better.
I noticed mine doing that before but her inclination is calm, and she's never had dragonsplague.
@fadingghost9723 I didn’t know calm pawns sit as well, I haven’t hired that many of them, I seem to either run into straightforward or kindhearted all the time lol.
@@TheRoundTableHold I've never seen her sit down but she would definitely spit after combat.
Some of these behaviors, such as spitting, are part of the independent personality that the player can choose at the beginning. I see a lot of people confusing this.
Yeah definitely the straightforward pawns
I'm sorry, but I have a hard time understanding all the hate with this plague thing. My pawn has caught it multiple times and even when I don't do anything about it, she recovers. I think the main instance, is if you sleep at an inn when they're in their late stage. I would really like to nuke Battbatall. Every time I spend a night there at my purchased home, this dude comes in and says, "What's your business here," or, What are you doing here?' My thought, "Anyone gives me trouble and they'll taste my steel!"
at one point I had all 3 of my pawns Have it. I wish I had taken a Screen shot of it.
Same, happened in the unmoored world
"off the dragon juice" lol!
🤣
Not the Dragon COVID 😂
🤣
1:54 what is move set? True deflect core skill?
Vengeful Slash, the upgraded version of Counter Slash.
But your arisen seems to be dodging to the side a bit when casting vengeful skill @@TheRoundTableHold
@@smarteditor8812 sorry I had to do some testing before responding. It seems like you get the dodge animation from a perfectly timed vengeful slash, combined with the true deflect core skill. Still testing but that seems to be the case.
That's good to know. I'm wondering if the Dragon's Plague pop up is 100% predictive of a Dragon's Plague diagnosis 🧐
You get the notification your first time encouraging a pawn with it, not sure what those encounters are limited to, but I got the pop up my first time speaking to a pawn with it. She had a helmet on so I couldn’t see the eyes, but still got the pop up.
Pawn randomly sitting and spitting is natural for pawns that are straight forward. I got my friends messaging me saying my pawns got the plague. I guess most people have their pawn as calm or kindhearted in the beginning thats why they’re not aware on how straight forward pawns act. Its a shame since straight forward pawns are the best in combat especially if u want your thief to steal things more consistently.
@@pjguhit3236 lol yeah I’ve noticed that too. Straightforward pawns also get a little sassy with you, I forgot to add that in the video, thanks for commenting.
@@pjguhit3236My calm inclination pawn also steal alot, but after witnessing other pawn doing so. Interaction between pawn complementing my pawn stealing - i think that make her consistantly steals. I dont know if other pawn inclination other then calm will get compliment. My run from bakhbatthal to volcanic base usually yield 1-2 ferrystone by my pawn stealing.
@@ulfr2333pawns can teach other techniques in the field especially if you have 2 pawns of the same vocation which is why they babble on about who is in the party to hint at new mechanics and dialogue depending on who is in the party
Don't forgot, or if you're not aware to anyone reading this, when you get to the Unmoored World your Pawn will unavoidably get Dragons Plague. It's scripted and can not be avoided. Even if you kill them they will quickly develope it again over a short amount of time. If you do choose to rest, the safest option is to rest at your house in Bahtal where they won't kill anyone that remains there after clearing the town. But again, don't waste your time killing your pawn in the Unmoored World as it's inevitable they will contract it and killing your pawn will lower your friendship level with them and I would advise against this, especially towards the end game especially if you want to see the "full" true ending.
It's also worth noting (although not fully confirmed) that from testing this theory with other players, if your pawn is currently in the Unmoored World in your game and they get hired by someone playing in the normal world in their game, when they hire your pawn (most of the time) they will join the other players world already having Dragons Plague. So they carry it over with them to the other world. Seems to be the main cause of it passing from world to world. Alternatively, if your pawn is grabbed twice by a drake during a fight it looks like they can get it that way too, but appears to be less contractive that way. Appears more prevalent if a pawn is coming from the Unmoored world into your game. For the record, i know some people hate this new system, but i think it's added a great little feature to the game.
Yeah It’s definitely coded into the unmoored world, it must’ve been bugged at first before the patch because 4 cycles in & I got it for the first time (the video) the day the patch released & I was already in unmoored world & noticed my pawn had it immediately.
Are you sure about the resting thing? I tried to purposely NUKE a town in the unmoored world so I could finally get the Dragon’s Plague cutscene, & I never got it. I don’t think it’s even possible to trigger that event unless it might’ve just been the location I tried. Would love an answer to this.
@@TheRoundTableHold From testing, I didn't nuke any towns in the Unmoored world from testing, only happened in the normal world. So I presume that your pawn doesn't go on a killing spree in the Unmoored world. But I can't confirm that to be definite, just that I never experienced it and was only warning people to rest in an empty town just in case it did actually trigger and they didn't want it to. But with it being scripted that your pawn develops it in the Unmoored world, I'm thinking that it doesn't kill anyone there due to endgame story reasons.
@RebTheRebel2000 yeah that sounds about right, wouldn’t be fair due to it being coded into the endgame. Thanks for the follow up
So I cannot leave my MC in unmoored world if I want to have someone hired my pawn for a longer time.
@@Thonckakrit dragon’s plague is bound to happen in unmoored world, not sure if your pawn immediately gets it upon entering or if it develops over time. Kinda sucks if you want to farm the unmoored world.
I honestly wouldn't have a problem with this feature if the save system wasn't dog 💩
But that’s the whole point of the save system, you make a decision in the game & you live with it. It’s not meant for you to say oh I messed up let me reload. & if that’s the case use your inn saves wisely, that’s your backup save. I’m surprised people still aren’t aware of this by now.
@TheRoundTableHold just because its intentional doesn't make it a good system
@@the_anime_guru5126 If you want to save scum just say that lol, but like I said. You make an in game decision & you have to live with it. If you don’t like that, that’s fine. It’s okay to have an opinion. We all don’t agree all the time. But don’t say it’s a bad system because you don’t like the fact that you can’t undo most of your choices, it’s just not that type of game.
After 130h my pawns still don't do any of this. I copied my eternal wakestone for nothing. I already got the Dragon's AIDS pop-up. But aside from that there has literally been nothing.
I thought that it's ought to get me if I don't give a damn, but I've not been giving a damn since an in-game month and nothing.
Cool video though, thanks.
You might be immune to it? But nah all jokes aside.
It sounds like your game is bugged, unfortunately. Try to let your main pawn get grabbed by a Drake right in front of you & see if it works instead of waiting for your pawn to catch it from another.
@@TheRoundTableHold You could be right. Which would be a bummer.
My main pawn was already grabbed be a Drake a couple of times. I knocked her out of it's hands though. Should I just let it do it's thing for the experiment?
Still say it's the most backwards ass decision they could have included in the game - even over turning the last rank's skill into something out of Gothic and Risen... and I hate the way getting skills work in those games. You put in enough "effort" to gain the skill by grinding Discipline. It worked fine in DD1.
It's needlessly punitive to introduce something they knew was going to become a nuisance in that regard. In a game with multiplayer aspects; not only does it make me NOT want to hire any pawns, it makes me NOT want to fight Dragons. (I'm not even level 40 yet; I've seen drakes since 27... so the pacing is THAT fucked)
Not only am I likely to get one shot by captain meteor spam happy - it's got rabies. : /
[More evidence they NEVER should have taken out the Assassin if they were gonna pull this bullshit... Best part about the class was first: You can kill off your pawn and never need to hire others - stock up on Greenswarish and mushrooms, and go ham on monsters for 4x EXP. ANNND you get more strength doing it. There was NOTHING wrong with the class as it was. It even had a bow so you had ranged options]
* Dragons like the Griffon, SHOULD be locked to see up to Level 100 at minimum. Then they should also be restricted to a VERY SPECIFIC playground. That way you can't bork your run by being forced to fight them. Also, I don't give a rat's ass if it flies - KEEP THE DAMNED THING WITHIN MY REACH. I fucking hate harpies. I hate that dragons can fly (several Asian variants don't actually have wings - wings were more common to western influence - and they were historically the first known to venerate them... so what the fuck?) and I REALLY hate the griffon.
Not sure what you mean that you don't wanna fight dragons but if you are talking about the rumor that they are the ones that give dragon's plague, sadly i made an experiment with a friend of mine. We switched our pawns and i let my friend pawn been caught by a Drake temporarily, bu nothing happened. After several times switching our respective pawns my friend warned me that my pawn that has never saw a dragon in his playthrough got the sickness. So i just think it's a percentage thing.
If you hate Drakes because they are annoying that's just understandable then 😂
