In the original Dragon's Dogma, developed by Capcom, players encountered clunky mechanics, an ambiguous exploration system, and an unconventional class structure. However, in the sequel, players face a pivotal decision right from the start: selecting their class, or vocation, from a diverse range of ten options.
Each vocation in the game comes with its own set of required weapons, shaping the character's abilities and combat style. Understanding these weapon-based distinctions is crucial for players to determine their preferred playstyle. In this article, we'll provide an overview of all the available vocations and the corresponding weapon types they employ.
