@@MCFERNO Different Vocations get different stat boosts on level up.

@@zyranisymir1629 Like many things in DD, probably a reference. 666 is "the Mark of the Beast" in the Book of Revelations; that is, the number is associated with (if not a direct symbol of/for) Satan in conventional Christian lore.
If memory serves, you are close. It's actually the number for man. It's derived from Hebrew custom where numbers have symbolic meaning. 6 is man, 7 is God. A number repeated 3 times is emphasizing wholeness or completeness. So it is a symbolic number which indicates man at his fullest self-reliance, or man having completely rejected God and placing himself in the place of the the Holy Trinity. This was the original sin committed by Satan, and the number becomes the symbol of the Anti-Christ. Man has acknowledged God and rejected him, seeking to take his divine throne for himself. Some see this as Satan indwelling man, others as man taking on the role of Satan. Much like the name Lucifer (which most Biblical scholars agree is not referring to Satan) Western cultures have taken the number 666 and misapplied it to the fallen archangel. It's us. We are the ones who will ultimately rebel against God to the point that only the end of the Earth will be an appropriate response.
@@Vladarius. if you read his wiki page, it says that nothing can stop it and you can't dodge it either. The only thing you can do is run so you are outside the range of the swing

Hi again Nihil0.0, I'm the dude who commented on the 1st video about trying these moves out on defensively neutral enemies. I agree with the idea that Magick build is superior, but the idea of Anguish hitting harder coming from a Magick build was weird. I'm glad that you actually followed up on this. In my head, there's two legit ways to play MK, either a Str build using Anguish with the completely physical mace attacks, or a Mag build using everything else available because it all hits harder using Magick. Sorta the same split between a Str Magick Archer (Immolation + physical dagger attacks and bow support skills) and a Mag version (everything else)
Tis just a simple question but would a balanced type of build be able to do vocations well? Levelling upto 100 as Fighter 10 Warrior 27 Ranger 63 Then lvl 200 as Strider 1 Ranger 23 Sorcerer 76 Statwise health and stamina is 4K Attack and magic is 550 And def and magic def is 331-338 Granted a specialized vocation for str or magic / glass cannons would do more damage and do better but wouldn't a balanced type be good too?
That's very close to my exact build. It's very well rounded and can tackle most situations. Once you have gold forged tier 3 BBI equipment its pretty awesome.
Even when I play Sorcerer I never go 190 levels in it. Then again I rarely ever attempt to level my characters properly. I'll stick with the balanced stats. The drop off in damage is negligible.
Watching this makes me feel kinda proud of the balanced build I came up with on my own. It's not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but it has a nice even split and the most important plus is that I get to actually play as an MK for the main story :D
I just can't imagine the time commitment to do this...190 lvls as assassin, then 190 lvls as mystic knight....etc...etc...even playing 10-15 hrs/daily it would take weeks/months to get multiple vocations ranked that high... There isn't enough content in the game to rank this high in multiple vocations like this, how do you do it??? Restart the game over and over???
Leveling from 1-200 isn't that hard in Dragon's Dogma DLC. Just continue doing quests until you unlock Bitterblack Isles then use Throwblasts to farm enemies. You can also just edit your character's stats if you know how to tamper with the game files. You can level your character from 1-200 in just 2 hours if you're lucky. But at most, 4-6 hours because of rng.

Third, “200 lvls in 2 hours or even 4-6 hours” is a stretch, I play for 2 hours most days and only hit about 10 max if I’m not getting sidetracked. Even the “power leveling” videos only estimate maybe 100lvls in 2-4 hours. Lastly, a side note about “power leveling”, I don’t do it, power leveling takes away the enjoyment of the game to me,…if gaming becomes a “task” or a “job”, it looses all its entertainment value IMHO.
@@usmc4good That's not my problem. You asked how much dedication is needed to achieve many level 200 characters in DD:DA, I merely answered of how you too can do it.

The only enemy that is not fun to fight with STR MK is Daimon, and more specifically his second form. His defenses are so high I struggle to do damage. Magic does no damage, and with him flying, STR does little damage, unless you climb. Wish STR MK had an answer for him.

Could you recreate this video for the riposte skills. Str vs split
I just use wyrmking ring and spell cast speed augments and fire like four magic cannons at a time soo lit
Don't forget the head armor enhancement that increases the cannons duration by 5 seconds
Question, why in the first Stone Jungle with STR, the second portion of damage was split into two on damage meter?
Not sure. Maybe 2 seperate hitboxes. I just added them together and it all lined up to make sense
What’s your PS4 online name?
I literally started a new run last night mannnnn
How would the playstyle change for a strength focused build?
Less Shield, More Cannon, More Abyssal Anguish. Whereas Magic would be mostly Shield counters and Cannons.

True. Split is best for MK. The 600 split is ideal but a 190 levels as MK does fine too
