    I started as a fighter and it was fine. Though I got a warrior pretty fast, and switched to archer only for one quest. There was a time when I played as mystic yeeter to just level it up enough to use it as an addition to warrior in warfarer vocation. And I can tell, multiclassing warrior and spearman is a menace to society.
    My pawn though have never leaved the mage vocation, I tuned her to be an ultimate support, with weapon enchantments, buffs, heals and a light spell to annihilate undead while illuminating the whole nearby area. It's so perfect, that I don't even want to change anything.

    With the thief Maister ability you can 100% dodge all damage with stamina. You can specifically target weak points with gut and run or its upgrade. You can dominate all big enemies with spin to win. You can dominate all basic enemies with a ring that adds backstab dmg, coupled with twin fang you can one shot tackle most small mobs to the ground. Running warrior, mage, archer pawns im dominating basically everything in the desert so far and ive downed multiple drakes at lvl 25.

    The reasons you listed for Thief are why I made my main pawn a Thief. Also because I feel like it’s the least chosen vocation for pawns (probably because the AI can’t get the max potential out of it as easily as it can for other vocations) and therefore will get rented out more.

    I will definitely start as a Fighter as that looks to be the most fun of all the starting vocations though the Thief also seems pretty cool too. But I will be going for Mystic Spearman ASAP, that's by far the coolest and most badass one I've seen, like if a Sith Lord was in Dragons Dogma. Also looks incredibly versatile with plenty of options for mobility and ranged attacks too.

      There's an augment for the thief that reduces your aggro as well as a fighter augment that increases aggro. Use both of them accordingly and you'll pretty much never get hit

    • @italianspartacus
      @italianspartacus  2 месяца назад +1

      So what you'd need here is the augments that enhance the aggro of your pawns and decrease your aggro. So you'd want fighter and warrior levels to get that on your pawn..and some. Thief levels to get that on yourself!

    Dont forget the mage can also cast celerity if ur weapon is sheathed and are trying to run from point a to b spam the help button and the mage will cast it and greatly increases movement speed and action speed. Im sorry but mages are mandantory for me (as a support pawn). Also try not to use Magik vocations and strength vocations on the same character cause it will fuck your level scaling

    BUT Ranger has the best playstyle because foraging everything making explosive/tarr/poison/drenching arrows really feels like your a hunter trying to survive in a dangerous enviornment. I was killing boss at low level cause I picked up EVERY Sunbloom and branch having max explosive arrows. Plus oneshoting using head shots is always fun.

    @mikkelnebelong6136 2 месяца назад +1

    The stats you gain when you level up are permanent and scale with the vocation your playing at the point of leveling up. So if you think you prefer playing something specific, it would be better to stick to your preferred class early when your gaining a lot of levels and then swap around later.
    As an example, I want to play as a sorcerer, so I am starting out as a mage for the first many levels so I'm gaining most of my stats in magick while leveling up is frequent. At some point I do for sure want 2 points in Fighter for Mettle, but I'm waiting for a while to get this so I don't end up with a bunch of strength that will be useless for me later in the game.
    The damage you gain from being smart about this is greater than what you can gain from any damage boosting augmentation, so just be aware of that, though you aren't gimping yourself to the point where the game is unwinnable by swapping around as you please, so if that's more fun to you then play how you like.
    For me, min-maxing is a big part of the fun.

    I'm having a MISERABLE time with Archer, but I gotta push through to get that extra damage in vital points. Mystic Spearhand is by far the most fun I had, specially since it plays exactly like Nero from DMC5 mixed in with a bit of Vergil with the time freezes, and the stabs you can do at vitals while standing on top of the monster are absolutely TERRIFYING! I was literally One Shotting a Cyclops with that from lvl 20 even without that extra damage in vitals, took 2 health bars from a Griffin! Mystic Spearhand if you master it is absolutely bonkers.

      @@italianspartacus I just discovered what the problem was. While grinding I was using the Medusa's Bow. That bow has two hidden effects: one, it makes your skills consume A LOT MORE stamina, that's why I was running out of stamina after every skill even when full stamina; two, it increases the xp you get from kills by A LOT, so much so that while getting my archer vocation to rank 8, I leveled from lvl 40 to 49, getting 3 levels ahead of my pawn.
      I had no idea the Medusa's Bow had that effect, that explains why it was so painful. At least it's over now. I just now gotta figure out if the way to min max the Mystic Spearhand is which smithing school to go with, in doubt I'm using the human style since it's balanced, but when I learn how to actually min max it I'm swapping weapons if need be.

    Trickster is the best tank in the game once you figure it out because fighter and warrior are limited by your health. Trickster is not limited by that since the mirage is not real and can be recast or healed to full HP.
    Trickster is NOT easy, high skill floor and higher skill ceiling.
    I want to say that I am NOT good with the trickster and generally fail at mirage tanking but the one time i did really well, my party and my character took zero damage. Fighter is certainly an easier tank and can do damage in return but not the BEST tank. Probably a better tank than the warrior but the warrior can tank and return that damage in troves
