"The strength of the Ur-dragon wanes!"

Arisens,

Between May 17th - May 23rd Capcom has weakened the online Ur-Dragon.  Doing so has allowed players to achieve more final kills on the massive beast at a faster rate.   If you are seeking rare drops or want to increase your total online kills, this is a great opportunity to do so.

I have finally reached the point where I'm self-sufficient and can survive the entire game/world of Gransys and the majority of Bitterblack Isle, have encountered pretty much every enemy and been to every area in the game, last one being The Abbey and why is Mason there? hmmmm very shady!

Nonetheless Nella, my Arisen, is now standing on two feets with the Maiden's Set and standing tall! no need for super ugly defense armor and no need for super over-weight Harspud very capable level 176 party indeed! finally!

Now started rushing the Isle only fighting Drakes and Dragons when they pop out, however, Death* still poses a danger and currently an issue, would be much easier if I could equip Blast Arrow's on my Magick Bows but noooooo "that's …

I don't know how fast many of you guys can run through Bitterblack, but i just go through the second gate, and fight through the last third of the dungeon. I usually earn around 50,000 rift crystals, and it only takes about 45 min to an hour. I'm going to need to start running through the entire island in order to rack up some lost RC.

So I thought I understood the intricacies of the Love Interest system and how to manipulate it, but on taking out Grigori yesterday, the person I was paired up with has left me somewhat baffled...

Everything went to plan (In the end) in my first play-through: Wanted Reynard, maxed out his affinity, then ended up unintentionally maxing out Madeleine's too on completion of the 'Bad Business' Quest, thus removing her from the game, whilst replacing Reynard in the position of 'Love Interest-to-be'. Couldn't lower her affinity, so instead I lowered Reynard's until he lost his 'pink glow', and then just before going into the Greatwall, I gave him the Arisen's Bond to max him out again, thus resetting him as 'Love Interest-to-be'. Finished Reynard…

• It should be said up front, Death* is an a**hole, it's extremely unnecessary to have him one-shot your characters into the rift, even though I see the developer's approach trying to add more difficulty hoping to attract some Dark Souls community players but with the Pawn Combat AI Death is an extreme disadvantage to players and their parties.

• It's not that he's difficult to conquer by any means, he's actually quite dumb, he -or is it a she? hmmmm- repeats the exact same actions over and over and over again, he has, or at least shows to have, five animations only! that's embarrassing! one animation to move, one animation to attack with the scythe, one animation teleport, an animation to use the lantern attack and the final being his death…

Inspired by a Wiki Contributor who's hired a Mr T look-a-like I'd like to see some replies detailing any pawns or arisens you've encountered or created who are based on famous ppl or characters from films, games, cartoons, etc. Maybe even ones who've managed to nail a likeness of NPC's from DD:DA itself. Personally I want the sliders to create Madeleine, Mercedes or Mirabelle. I know there's details for what you need to create Savan on this very website. But what other stars are out there? Or have you been egocentric and done a likeness of your own mush? Did it look like you? And to go off on a tangent who's the best looking pawn you've hired? Who's the downright ugliest? Details, details ppl...

I need some help!

Everytime I buy an item from a store it somehow doesn't appear on my items section and somehow it gets moved to the item storage.Also none of my pawns have the item I have purchased.The items that don't appear are stuff like carrots,apples,ferrystones etc. If it is a weapon or armor it does appear.I also see that I haven't cancel my purchase because right after I buy the item I see that I wasted money on it.And instead of appearing on my items section it somehow gets moved to the item storage.And I sell them,I buy them and still nothing appears.What I should do ? Is this a glitch or something ? Please help me :(

• As more and more time passes by I find myself more and more addicted to this game and this specific website in particular, I can't stop thinking about it, about updating all the junk pages and about adding more specific and useful content.

• I do however fear of over-playing DD and eventually getting bored of it ahead of time hence I got started on Demon's Souls so I won't be participating as often until I finish that game, on the other hand the next two weeks are going to be my college finals weeks, during which I will have to take about five exams, hopefully only five, and past that I'll have plenty of time to participate here full time before summer school.

id like the options avalible but i wish there were more that benifited each play style, or more specific ones like "avoid close combat", "keep agro" things like that most of the inclinations are already good but maybe they could break the existing ones up into smaller ones for dd2 and we can beter create how are pawns fight but also more than two maybe 4 or 5. because i like the utilitarian but i dont like how often my pawns waste time grabbing when they should be attacking instead of waiting on someone to deliver the finishing blow.

So I've defeated Savan and proclaimed my character as the new Senchal and so on but I tried my best not of overlook any quests in the first run which, unfortunately, didnt work out and now I'm left with plenty a questions.

• What's up with the witch in the witchwood? I only went there to get the ale quest and I can tell there's a TON more lore and story to the poor girl than that one line of dialogue I got from her.

• Was the Dragonforged a previous Arisen?

• Now that my character is the Senchal and Savan defeated shouldn't Savan be the DragonForged until his release in NG++?

• Why was there no explanation for the area northwest with the mountains houses and the bandits?

• When will I get that damn Dragon's Risen Archstaff?

I thought nothing would top my last time through: 4 Garms, many Harpies, at least 2 Eliminators, and two Prisoner Gorecyclopes in the same room.  It was pure insanity.  But just now I enter the room of a Drake (UberDrake, they should be called in DA), and saw a bunch of the red Phantasms and what I THOUGHT was a Lich, but turned out to be DEATH.  The moment I realized it was Death he 1-shot my pawns, about a half second later a Phantasm (or whatever) latched onto my head and as I started to wonder how you remove them when you're alone the Drake stomped me to deadness.  Death should not be so cooperative.

Share, please.  Misery loves company.

Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen, the re-release of the original game, has hit the market in most places. While it boasts new weapons, quests, enemies, armors, locations, customizations and more, the critics seem divided.

Check out some of their opinions below and feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section!

Spong - 9/10

When it comes down to it everybody can be easily thrown into one of four groups. Anyone still putting serious hours into Dragon’s Dogma will no doubt be desperate for this to come out and give them new stuff to hack and slash their way through, so they likely won’t need much convincing here.

If you vaguely remember playing a lot of Dragon’s Dogma back in the hazy days of 2012 and got a bit of a kick out of it then the …

So now that I'm at the very end of the game I've used this wiki a LOT to help me find levers, characters, items as well as weapons. My main Character "Chaos" has now collected all 20 wakestones and is ready to defeat the last boss, which I do not know who it is, I'm presuming, from the indiciations of the game itself, that it will be the character we play in the demo, can't really recall his name.

Not really a big fan of my own pawn, Chris, I find it easier to go around the world solo espicially with that one assasin perk that provides additional damage if venturing alone. Besides Chris will not SHUT UP about the god damned Harpies, I've had enough man.

Really looking forward to the higher levels and grinding the Ur-Dragon as well as the inf…

I thought of a way they could do multiplayer 

ok so you know how you can enter the rift? well what if there were dungeons in the rift then if they did matchmaking that would make it easy to join up with players around your level and have a balanced team, and they could have preset unique dungeons, random generated dungeons or both, while having appropriate enemy types, and possibly scale them up or down depending on the team

Hey there, Wikians! As many of you are aware, Capcom will be releasing Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen, a re-release of the original Dragon's Dogma. There is plenty of new material added with this release, with a slew of new enemies, quests, locations, customizations, weapons and armor.

On April 25th, from 1-5 PM PST, several members of Wikia's Community Development Team will be focusing on adding content from Dark Arisen to the wiki.

We invite any admins and contributing users to help us with this content push. Members of our team will be in chat during these hours to better coordinate our additions of content.

Thank you, and we hope to see you!

Just found them while I did the mission Duchess In Distress. I found them when I met up with the rest of my group in the area wich contains several bridges and a lot of water filled rooms.

I don't expect DD:DA to have rain effects in it but it's something I wanna see in DD2. It may sound like a stupid thing to wanna see but there ya go. Imagine if you're out on a run and then it starts pouring down. You don't find shelter you get drenched unless you got something waterproof on. I just think some more varied weather conditions other than sunny or dreary would enhance the look and feel of the game. Other things I have a bizarre desire to see in DD2:

Mountainous areas with snow where your characters need to be wrapped up or they get cold and have reduced abilities or HP. The ability to crouch or lie down to sneak around and hide. Being able to sneak up behind enemies and take them out silently (for all classes). More unarmed com…

I was wondering if some of you could take my pawn around for a while, I personally don't use her and just go solo through the game but she doesn't seem to be getting used by anyone online and I was hoping for some feedback on how to improve her.

so dragonforged is the eldest arisen and the theres sofiah and duke and sofiah i would guess killed the dragon and duke choose to become ruler of the land, but what doesnt make sense is if sofiah did kill the dragon and if she is after the duke the DF should be dead and duke should be old one way or another DF should be dead so it doesnt make sense to me that sofiah killed the dragon unless there are multiple dragons. if there are multiple dragons thats the only reasonable explantion why DF atleast is alive unless she was also after duke which i believe she was arisen before. but if you lose to savan you become a dragon but that one dragon hunts the arisen so that would mean the same dragon who has DF heart has dukes and yours but what abo…

• 1 Introduction
• 2 Lowering Affinity
• 3 Raising Affinity
• 4 Disclaimer:

I have noticed alot of disagreement on how best to effect an NPC's affinity, so I took the liberty to shift through all the comments, and do a little testing on affinity. It seems that affinity is based on a basic level or value, to a set amount. When raised to max affinity, the NPC is listed to the Arisen's current Love Interest. This registers the NPC then to appear in the next one of two cutscenes, either the Dragon's hostage, or at the beach when you fall from the sky. 

As soon as another NPC is raised to max affinity, it effectively replaces the previous LI. This means if Aelinore has max affinity, and you finish Selene's questlines and raise her affinity to the maximum value,…

Is it possible to get in trouble with a guard somewhere far off and be sent to the dungeon?  I think paying $5,000 would be cheaper than buying a ferrystone.  Unless of course people have figured out how to farm them, and if so, what's your secret.

My Pawn finally got her first 3 Star the other day HOOOORRAAAAHHHHH! Just had to let that out haha. It may only have been for Bandits, but for so long I've been trying to get one of these, so to see that third Star pop up made my day!

So getting that third Star for Bestiary seems to be pretty damn tricky to get; I didn't get any in my first playthrough and it must be around 80 hours into my current one before getting this first one (although I've seen much lower level Pawns than mine with multiple 3 Stars, so perhaps I'm just incompetent xD). What sort of makes it worse is how easy it seems 2 Stars is to get; every enemy regularly encountered (pre-Griffin's Bane) I have 2 Stars for. It's gotta take only a couple of 'tactics' per enemy to pi…

I was thinking that there could have been alot more large enemy types especially since those are the most fun and challenging. so we can think of some and if capcom sees this they can use our Ideas.

Giant Spiders, regular spiders suck!

Basilisk, a giant snake that can turn you to stone

Medusa, since we're on the subject and like only one monster can turn you to stone

Treant, a walking tree essentially

Pheonix, and not a dam harpy clone, the succubus could've been an entirely different enemy                            possible Pheonix abilities: fire breath and/or spit, catching itself on fire(like the hellhounds >:D) and dive bombing, and maybe a rebirth ability after being on fire long enough, making it a very strategy heavy enemy

Now mid-way through my second playthrough of Dragon's Dogma, I had yet to experience any glitches/bugs within the game whatsoever (a very welcome change to the norm); that is until today!

On sprinting up towards the main entrance to Gran Soren, just before moving onto the stone walkway, I fell through the road into an expanse of white, and maintained the motion of falling for a good 10 seconds or so. Thankfully the game then reacted as if I'd be dunked in the brine and put me back onto the road where I had fallen into it, with no negative consequence as far as I can tell. Livened things up a wee bit haha!

So what glitches/bugs have you experienced (if any) in the land of Gransys?

I posted a forum page of the same name pre-membership  it goes like this:

I thought it would be cool if we could think up possible new classes

my idea is a pair of classes, a starter and an advanced

starter: spearman: it uses a spear & shield in tandem with some very defensive and strategic skills

advanced: Dragoon: it would use a lance and it would have some high jump based skills(ie. like the saurians attack) as well as attacks that utilise its reach, this would be a very offensive class.

what do you guys think? post your own ideas or expand upon mine

ps. im on ps3(no pc) so i'm kinda limited right now. PSN: Dakon_   pawn: Damia

ps.s. i know the combo seems like the fighter/warrior combo but they can be very different if done right

Dragon’s Dogma director Hideaki Itsuno has made comparisons between his game’s pawn system and old-school bulletin board systems in the past. The full extent to which yesterday’s information tech informed Dragon’s Dogma’s development was made clear at his GDC talk today. Much of what Itsuno discussed during Behind the Scenes of Dragon’s Dogma was intended to elucidate his team’s process for developing this unusual open-world RPG, for the benefit of fellow game makers in attendance. In the process, though, he divulged some truly fascinating tidbits on the game, and how it evolved throughout its development. Highlights follow:

• Dragon’s Dogma’s working title was rather prosaic: “BBS RPG.” Itsuno thought up the pawn system as early as 2000, but…

Offline Ur weps are POINTLESS to offer as anyone can get them as it's really not hard to solo Ur with a ton of curatives for lower levels or a bunch of mushrooms for those with invisibility. so why do people keep offering them for items such as Abyssinal armor, or the masks, that actually require the killing blow to be dealt to the ur dragon. Common sense says that if Supply is > demand then supply is worth < before until demand rises which, potentially, may happen with DA if new people begin to play.
