Dragon's Dogma 2 is a direct sequel to Dragon's Dogma, developed and published by Capcom. The action role-playing game focuses heavily on exploration and combat.
While players start their journey alone in Dragon's Dogma 2, they are soon given the feature of adding pawns to fight alongside them in battles or travel with them during exploration. All pawns in Dragon's Dogma 2 have their own distinct features that determine their usefulness.
One of these features is the pawn inclination, which determines their behaviour during combat and exploration. If you're looking for a pawn to take in battle, here's an overview of how all inclinations work in Dragon's Dogma 2.
All Pawn Inclinations and How they Work in Dragon's Dogma 2
Inclinations are distinct characteristics that define how a pawn functions during combat. There are four inclinations in the game: Calm, Kindhearted, Simple and Straightforward.
The inclination of a pawn dictates how it will react to a combat situation, whether by being aggressive or defensive. Here's a look at how all inclinations work in Dragon's Dogma 2:
Calm Inclination
A pawn with a calm inclination has strong defensive capabilities, making them better for defensive combat situations. The pawn typically focuses on blocking and dodging attacks. Trickster, archer, mage, and sorcery vocations are the best matches for a pawn with a calm inclination.
Paws with a calm inclination randomly shuffle their inventories, which results in them discarding random items, so we recommend not keeping any valuable items on your pawn if they have a calm inclination.
Kindhearted Inclination
Pawns with Kindhearted Inclination are going to favour regenerative spells and grant buff status effects to the player's party. So, these pawns usually fill the support role in your party. Kindhearted pawns are not efficient at attacking during combat. Mage, magick archer, and sorcerer vocations are the best matches for a pawn with a kindhearted inclination.
We recommend always keeping a pawn with kindhearted inclination in your party, as they are great for receiving heals during combat.
Simple Inclination
Pawns with Simple Inclination highlight chests and all types of loot during exploration. They have no combat capabilities; however, they are the best pick for normal exploration and gathering resources. All vocations are ideal for a pawn with simple inclination.
We recommend keeping a pawn with simple inclination in your party when you're out exploring or gathering resources, as they will effectively mark all types of loot and chests on the map.
Straightforward Inclination
Pawns with Straightforward Inclination are really aggressive during combat. These pawns usually deal massive damage to all enemy types during combat, making things easier for players. Moreover, they usually target stronger enemy types first before other pawns get a chance to react. Fighter, thief, and warrior vocations are the best matches for pawns with straightforward inclinations.
We recommend selecting a pawn with a straightforward inclination if you like to get up close and personal during combat.
Selecting pawns with the correct inclination can save you a lot of hassle during combat and exploration. Specifically for combat, picking a pawn with the correct inclination can make everything a lot easier and save you time on important missions.
