Dragon's Dogma 2 Sorcerer Guide: How to Play

Sorcerers wield archistaves to incant a wide range of powerful spells. Their magickal onslaught can turn the tide of battle in an instant, dealing damage over a wide area or inflicting multiple enemies with debilitations. Incanting spells takes time, however, and must be done from a position of safety, lest the caster be left vulnerable. Hold down the heavy attack button to use Galvanizeand rapidly recover stamina. Casting powerful spells is taxing and consumes a large amount of stamina, so to ensure your magick is at your fingertips when you need it most, keep a close eye on your remaining stamina, and use galvanize as needed.

Spells must be incanted before they can be cast, and the more complex or powerful the magick, the longer the time required to incant it will be. Incanting leaves you vulnerable, however, so take care when and where you cast. You can move while incanting, but doing so will increase the time required to ready the spell. Certain magicks allow the caster to select the target of the spell. While incanting, you can select or switch between targets (be they friend or foe) by using the camera controls to center the camera on your chosen target. Attack magicks must be incanted before they can be cast, and this takes time. However, if you approach a fellow caster while they are incanting and begin intoning the same spell, you can help them to cast it more quickly. This is known as auxiliary incanting, and it will allow you to cast powerful spells with greater frequency.

Sorcerer is a beginner friendly class that specializes in dealing large amounts of damage over a wide area. In addition to the basic elemental damage spells that the Mage vocation can cast, Flagration, Levin, and Frigor, sorcerers gain access to larger elemental damage spells Salamander, Thundermine, and Hagol. Physical damage can be dealt with Seism. While these skills all have their place, the skills Meteoron, Maelstrom, and Augural Flareallow for the greatest damage when used properly. Indeed, few classes have the ability to deal as much raw damage as sorcerer.

The longincantation times of sorcerer spells can be somewhat countered by using rings that increase incantation speed, namely Ring of Recitation and Ring of Articulacy. Increasing the incantation speed is likely the best way to increase the overall damage output of sorcerer. Since being staggered will cancel the incantation, it is also important to add as much knockdown resistance to your gear as possible. Enhancing your gear with the dwarven smithing style and equipping the Constancy augment is the best way to do this.

Being attacked may cancel your spells, so it is important to have other vocations in the party that can draw the attention of enemies and tank while the spells are incanted. In particular, a Fighter, Warrior, or Trickster can all excel at drawing the attention of enemies. A Thief with Formless Feint is another option for tanking, although you may need to use augments and rings to increase their threat generation.

DD2Sorcerer Stat Growth

Stats inDragon's Dogma 2grow in two ways - temporary Stat Adjustments from choosing and adopting a Vocation, and increases that happen per level, modified by Vocation Stat Multipliers. Stat Adjustments happen instantly whenever you change into a Vocation. This means that when you chooseyour Basic Vocation during Character Creation, you'll likely already have these Stat Adjustments already applied to your Stats. Vocation Stat Multipliers are relevant whenever your character levels up.
