Specializations in Dragon’s Dogma 2 are passive talents for Pawns that alter the Pawn’s conduct in fascinating methods and provides them extra methods to assist the Arisen.
Like most issues in DD2, the specialization mechanic is poorly defined and left for gamers to determine on their very own. Right here is the way it works.
How To Unlock Pawn Specializations
To begin, your Pawns received’t have any specializations to their identify. To unlock them, you’ll must enhance your affinity with sure NPCs, both by finishing their quests or by giving them items. The primary one you’re prone to unlock is the Chirurgeon specialization by finishing Flora’s quest in Melve.
When you meet the requirement, that NPC provides you with a Specialization Tome that you need to use to present your Pawn that particular specialization. Merely choose the Tome in your stock and use it.
To see what specialization a Pawn has, choose Standing from the pause menu, choose the Pawn, and swap over to the Pawn tab. You’ll discover each the Pawn’s inclination and specialization below Traits.
How To Change Specializations
Specialization Tomes are one-time-use objects that expire after you employ them, however you possibly can discover a number of Specialization Tomes by interacting with sure NPCs. Nevertheless, not like Augments, you possibly can’t swap them round freely at your whim.
When you’ve got the Chirurgeon specialization, for instance, and swap to Logistician, the Chirurgeon specialization might be misplaced till you could find one other tome for it and be taught it once more. On this case, the Logistician might be changed.
I acquired the Chirurgeon specialization by getting a Fruit Roborant for Flora and visiting her household store in Vernworth, however I additionally acquired one other Chirurgeon Tome from the Rose Chateau Bordelrie by elevating the affinity of 1 the ‘therapists’ to max. Whereas this methodology works, it’s unclear how repeatable that is at the moment. I’d advise discovering a Specialization that you simply worth and sticking to it. In case you’re enjoying on-line, you possibly can all the time rent Pawns from Riftstone, who’ve a specialization that you simply’re missing.
