First off, want to say that I've really been enjoying this series, thank you so much for these, and please keep them coming! Just one critique is that the beginning gameplay footage seemed way too dark. Ironically it got brighter after you crapped on Radiance as an augment.
LMAO I was actually intending to lampshade that (pun intended.) Ironically, despite me dunking on lanterns, it would legitimately be beneficial for me to use it in some areas purely for the sake of good lighting in my videos lol! I sincerely appreciate your kind words, I plan to keep at 'em until I've covered everything!
I found you today and love you. I've had DD for a long time, but never really took the time to learn the nuances. you are really funny, informative, and damn good at the game. keep it up
Ranger is a great class for power leveling: blast arrows trivialize all enemies, balanced stat growth and highest stamina gain per level, which imo is even more important than strength or magic if you're not just going for max damage but just want to have fun.
@@sethsword9680 True, but Ranger has a pretty balanced stat growth in terms of magic and strength, and even defense, which is better if you want to use the character to play all vocations. Jack of all trades style
@@sethsword9680assassin gets 27 stamina per level vs ranger's 30, and while assassin gets better strength growth, its defensive growth is appalling; ranger gets slightly better magic and magic defense as well. I concur with the OP; Ranger is a solid class for power leveling. Now as far as pawns go, I've got a pawn who I just switched to a ranger at level 45 after going 1-10 fighter and 11-44 as a warrior. I'm an advocate for using ranger and warrior pretty evenly for raising pawns, as I've loved the results without failure. Sorcerer for the last hundred levels isn't a bad way to go either, but there's nothing wrong with going fighter for health and defense, or ranger/warrior for more strength. Even strider has it's uses post 100; despite it's meager stat growth, it's still balanced across the board.
This video is a real shot in the heart. You're a real troubleshooter with all these guides. I bow down to your expertise. Arrows. Sorry, ran out of puns.
I started playing ranger for the very first time in my recent playthrough (played off and on since 2016 and warrior is really fun for me.) This might be tied for my favorite class now, like I love Warrior to death, Assassin was great against bosses especially, but holy hell have never seen enemies drop so fast. Love it.
Ranger is so much fun also!!!! I like the slightly slower aiming and charging than strider but, that power behind shots! A really good ranger pawn is worth a bundle in a BBI run! Again with the summoner music!!!! I've got that mix on my playlist. Great for playing during fight sequences!
Ranger it's a beast and if played well enough more powerfull than the overhyped assassin (no need to carry tons of blast arrows/shields/swords) or the crazy bag that it's the magic archer. I would say that great gamble looks awsome in paper, but deathly shot can give you the same results without forcing yourself to carry hundreds of shrooms.
I like how people hate on briliant ranger class in DAO. It shows how much people dont understant that class at all. If u build it right and give it a bit practice it s one of the highest cc/DPS classes. Secondly Spiral arrow is the must have for any ranger. Debilitations and elemental shot decimates enemy no matter his weaknes procs. U can freeze multiple enemies with one shot or sleep group with one as well.
@@ThiefofCrystals sure my man find out recently some stuff and it totally changes how I play the class. All u need is spiral tier 2 and grand gamble with elemental and debilitations and u re good to go. It makes this class my favorite.
Love these guides, I'm watching them cause I've started playing DD for the first time and I wanted to make an educated choice before committing. It's My first playthrough ( Somehow this amazing game managed to evade me all these these years) and I've chosen to start Ranger on Hard mode, it was pretty hard to survive at the beginning as everything kills you in one shot, but now I'm in Grand Soren and I'm able to take some hits, if I take them since I have the dodge roll now, and even one shot cyclops with great gamble. So far I'm having a blast with both gameplay and the story, def Goty for me.
Fantastic! Love to hear it, welcome to the community! It always makes me beyond happy to hear that my guides have been helpful! Hope you're excited for Dragon's Dogma 2, it's gonna be even bigger and better! ;)
@@ThiefofCrystals Honestly, Yes and no, I'm def happy about the prospect of a sequel, but I'm also a bit skeptical towards modern gaming, I'm intrigued but I'm also afraid of forced politics, greed and corporate. I'm definitely loving with the first game, no doubt I'm getting surprised with how everything is, the world, soundtrack, monsters, characters and designs are quite of my liking, amazing to say the least, also the gameplay it's pretty tasty, the story is intriguing, I love how fun they've made these classes and the combat system is chef's kiss. Aside from all these things, so far I'm very surprised with the amount of immersion this game gives you, I absolutely love when pawns immediately comment and react after every single quest and situation, offering their advice and opinion. Honestly, I've missed games like these for many years, DD is a product of its time that aged like fine wine and, the more I play, the more I can tell that it's absolutely the labor of love and passion from an era where people honestly wanted to make Videogames for fun first and money second. Also for some reason, some things ingame reminds me a bit of Berserk. @.@ Thanks again for the guides, quite helpful! Keep up the good work!
@@lewdjiggle2011 Yeah the game does have certain inspirations from Berserk (you could even get Guts and Griffith armor sets in the original version) but very much manages to be its own thing, and a lot more optimistic in my opinion. I can definitely understand caution towards modern gaming, but I absolutely have faith in Itsuno after he brought us DMC5! DD2 is shaping up to be the game he wanted to make with the original title, but couldn't due to lack of time and resources.
This is the reason I got Dragon's Dogma. A game that does ranged combat right. Too many rpg focus on sneaky bow attacks, nothing wrong with that but when it goes tits up bow is useless. This game, you have enough bow skills to suit any ranged play style, plus the melee skills can be used to escape, cc or damage.

This games just such an incredible experience :) I can not wait for dragon's dogma 2 to come out finally. It's gonna be lit yo :D, I'm so glad I gave this game a chance a few years ago because at first glance I thought it would be mediocre but after playing it this game is anything but that. It's one of the most fun rpg systems I ever have got to play :).
I just make a brand new character to test all the yellow vocation that I didn't really play with in my 500 hours and I'm loving it. I even switched to mouse and keyboard to be deadass precise with my arrow.
Can you include leveling information in these videos? Meaning what classes would be useful to level with if you want to play a certain class as your "main?"
This is a fair request, although in my opinion this only holds much weight if you want a specific focus towards attack, magic, or tankiness. Otherwise, you're basically gonna end up being a beast at later levels no matter what. Assassin gets the largest attack gains in the game, so focus that if you wanna deal extra high damage. Sorcerers have the highest magic attack gains, so those going in with a focus on magic should opt for that. Warrior for physical defense, and Mystick Knight for magick defense. Keep in mind, these strengths are typically paid for with distinctly low stat growths in other areas (not the case for MK.) As far as I can tell, every other class is generally rather balanced. I hope this helps you!
Yooo, I watched Wanted when I was a kid, and rewatched it recently. Man, it's bad for sure, but it's also fun as hell XD Loving your editing style and humour, they're both right up my alley. Been in love with this game for a long while too, so I'm really enjoying these guides, even if I'm not learning a whole lot. It's also really cool to see how serious you take writing and editing your videos despite being a small channel, it definitely makes you seem a whole lot more genuine about wanting to entertain and help your viewers than some other, bigger youtubers. You've absolutely earned yourself a new follower. Keep up the good work man, and more importantly keep having fun 👍 P.S. : I also recognised the music you used during the sorcerer tease at the end ;)
This is absolutely wonderful to see and very kind of you to say, I can't express how much positive feedback and support like this encourages me to keep it up. I promise I'll be back at it soon, I've just been having a really rough time IRL plus September's a busy month for me, but I'm starting to get back on my feet and aim to really double down on video stuff come October. Thank you so very much for the lovely comment, it's greatly appreciated! And I'm very glad you've enjoyed my stuff as much as you have!
@@ThiefofCrystals In this case, prepare for a lot more positive comments from me on your future videos ! And even though I haven't written any other so far, I had a lot of fun watching your other guides, your fists-only run, and your older videos on stuff like DMC 5 and real time combat. You totally rock !
Tried Warrior on Bitterblack at like level 60 then changed to Ranger with no Dragonforged Weapons and just pretty much waltzed through it on Ranger a few years ago. Parapets, Tenfold Flurry and Blast Arrows for Daimon should quite literally be illegal. It's actually absurd. Rinsed every boss with just tenfold without any real buffs or Bomb Arrows but that was disgusting.
I absolutely love giving my ranger pawns Fearful Din with as much stagger power as can be mustered. They tend to spam the everloving crap out of it at times, but god damn it creates some truly hilarious moments and it also makes for fantastic synergy in combat with all the openings it can create. I once killed Feste with it myself by spiking his head into the ceiling over and over. 🤣🤣🤣 I like to run my ranger pawns with Fearful Din, Tenfold Flurry and nothing else. The results have never disappointed me, and I've gotten pretty good feedback over the years as well, though I was much more active back in the day on the PS3 😎
7:15 and fun fact! It’ll deal meh damage if it doesn’t hit a weak spot! Also Liquid vim Gimps it as since you didn’t spend a drop of stamina. It does pathetic damage at max. So yeah. Don’t like gamble? Go dire arrow.
Ranger was my favorite since the first demo back on PS3, just the power, reach & accuracy, knocking back enemies, and yes I use radiance, feeling old 😂
Very very good..I completed the Game as strider once. Believe it or Not: I did not realize that you learn skills 🤦🤦🤦 yeah sounds stupid. I Played the whole game with just standard attacks 😂😂😂 never used ANY fucking skill. I Play on switch. Now I will start a new game with Ranger AND skills 💪
Thanks! For this video I wore: -Laurel Circlet -Blessed Vest -Chestguard -Red Leather Glove -Seeker Tights -Dark Over-Knee Boots -Scholar's Cape And as for weapons I was using Heaven's Key and swapped from Veteran's Arc to Dragon's Glaze. Hope this helps!
Im 16 hours in and lvl 32 mostly as a magic archer and i used radiance for most of the game. So yes im that guy. im switching to strider though because i maxed out the vocation level and my stats seem pretty bad. Usable but bad. Also I basically have barely used strider and i need better augments clearly. Ill switch to ranger next because im not a fan of aiming with a controller and i dont like using mouse and keyboard in a action game.
You probably already learned this game, I know. But yes, somehow Magick Archer only have a mid mag stat growth, you need to use mage or sorcerer to raise your mag and some ranger for a bit of stamina
It's absolutely fucked that you have to steer your Great Gamble shot with the LEFT stick. P.S. For sorcerer you need to cast maelstrom in a BBI room with hanging bodies. They spin crazy fast forever and you can still hang on them.
You'll get to swap vocations once you reach Gran Soren, just talk to the innkeeper there, Asalam. You'll have full access to all vocations, just need discipline points to unlock them (those build naturally as you fight things ect.)
Very late comment but in my personal opinion, Radiance should have been a Magica Archer skill since the whole gimmick of that class is based on exploring.
At the very least, I'll certainly entertain it - I'm a massive fan of Dragon Age! I actually did a little video on it already in case you'd like to see, but yeah. Just to clarify do you mean Origins specifically?
Kinda sad how Spiral arrow was kinda explained poorly Sleep Spiral Arrow + Reaper/Deathly Arrow or Petrify Spiral Arrow alone is just too good that it can immediately makes alot of fight EZ that you need to try really hard to make it fail..
Folks are 100% welcome to explain anything I missed in the comments so that it's at least somewhere for people to potentially see, I did in practice find that Spiral Arrow was actually pretty good hence the brief mention of it being cracked but there's a whole lot to consider at once when making these videos and while I really am doing my best some stuff is naturally gonna slip through the cracks, all I can do there is apologize and hope that the effort I put into things as a whole is enough to make up for that fact.
@@ThiefofCrystals That's fine.. I kinda understand that you don't want this guide to be 30 mins long withball the synergy and such and maybe I kinda worded that poorly. It's a really good, concise, direct to the point guide I'll give you that for sure.
I can confidently say that Wanted is based on real physics. And if your country let you inherit a small arsenal from some great uncle you didn't know, you too could try it.
Only really true on hard mode. Plus it has the best stamina growth in the game, so it can be worth the pain. In fact, if you can swing it, it usually is. 🙃
Just started playing this game for the first time (well actually 2nd time, but I never played all that much when it came out) 2:42 .... 6 times the damage??? Does the game ever tell you this in any way? 3:53 had no idea how this skill worked until now.... 5:49 imo the worst skill I've seen so far...
Ranger is boring, you can only use 3 archery skills, it become boring soon, like Warrior. At least Warrior have some core movesets and jumping attacks, but Ranger have none making it even more boring than Warrior. Since we focused on long range battle, we won't be using those dagger skills, making all of them wasted.
While I understand where you're coming from, I can't personally agree. Long range is definitely the focus and when a fight's going your way an enemy won't be able to reach you, but not all of them will play ball and although I recommended Endecad in place of daggers it takes a minute to set up, so when you need a fast and effective option in close-to-mid range daggers are still your best bet and you benefit from fantastic skills like Cutting Wind and Hundred Kisses. Also, it absolutely does have access to core movesets and jumping attacks, I'm not sure why that's a concern.
@@MizanQistina I'm referring to the daggers, it has the same core skills as all yellow classes. And funnily enough, you actually can fire the bow after jumping if you're in the air long enough.
@@MizanQistina It's perfectly fine if you simply don't enjoy it, that's entirely subjective though, just as people have fun with Warrior plenty have fun with Ranger too.
My favourite part of this video was when he said "it's Rangin' time" and then started to range all over those guys.
Godlike comment LMAO

I am now going to equip radiance to spite all min maxers
What armor are you wearing It looks cool
Bro your content is great. Keep it up
Thank you very much!
I mostly use endecad to skeet shoot harpies
Great video dude! Out of curiosity what armor combo were you rocking? Love the fashion :D
Thanks! For this video I wore:
-Laurel Circlet
-Blessed Vest
-Chestguard
-Red Leather Glove
-Seeker Tights
-Dark Over-Knee Boots
-Scholar's Cape
And as for weapons I was using Heaven's Key and swapped from Veteran's Arc to Dragon's Glaze. Hope this helps!
@@ThiefofCrystals sweet thanks dude! Fantastic content subbed!:D
@@ShaggyMH Thanks a bunch!
Im 16 hours in and lvl 32 mostly as a magic archer and i used radiance for most of the game. So yes im that guy. im switching to strider though because i maxed out the vocation level and my stats seem pretty bad. Usable but bad. Also I basically have barely used strider and i need better augments clearly. Ill switch to ranger next because im not a fan of aiming with a controller and i dont like using mouse and keyboard in a action game.
We found him boys!
Jokes aside I wish you all the best with your adventures Arisen!
You probably already learned this game, I know. But yes, somehow Magick Archer only have a mid mag stat growth, you need to use mage or sorcerer to raise your mag and some ranger for a bit of stamina
7:47
It's morbid Time.
I'm not sorry.
If you use a blast arrow with spiral arrow does it explode multiple times?
No
It's absolutely fucked that you have to steer your Great Gamble shot with the LEFT stick.
P.S. For sorcerer you need to cast maelstrom in a BBI room with hanging bodies. They spin crazy fast forever and you can still hang on them.
I love your videos , they are so funny 😂
6:54 I got the ref 😌
Same lmao
My favorite class withe a rusty longbow max upgrade you are the debuff king
Radiance is a "Must Have" skill ! I get it as soon as I can... uuuummm 'cause dark is skeery. (lol)
This is my first time playing DD. I’m a strider now. How do I become a ranger? This class looks amazing
You'll get to swap vocations once you reach Gran Soren, just talk to the innkeeper there, Asalam. You'll have full access to all vocations, just need discipline points to unlock them (those build naturally as you fight things ect.)
Dammit Jake
Can you make a video about useful items in the game because I hardly use them because I don't know what's worth using
Fun videos; waiting on the most broken class, assasin.
Tenfold arrows with blast arrows melts Daimon.
Very late comment but in my personal opinion, Radiance should have been a Magica Archer skill since the whole gimmick of that class is based on exploring.
Range is basically Medieval version of a commando
What armorset?
Ngl, I am was radiance as a ranger….not anymore😅
Did my dude just use arin Hansen's (from game grumps,) scream?
I did and I'll do it again
Deathly, ten fold and great gamble (gg)
Garms laugh at Rangers.
It's a pitty we can't stack multiple augs i would stack radiances and flashband myself at 3AM just for the fun of it.
I understood that reference
What’s the name of the song in the beginning?😊
Neon White OST - Rigged Game
@@ThiefofCrystals Thank you Boss! ❤
If possible can your next project be dragon age
At the very least, I'll certainly entertain it - I'm a massive fan of Dragon Age! I actually did a little video on it already in case you'd like to see, but yeah. Just to clarify do you mean Origins specifically?
No specific game the whole series is awesome
Kinda sad how Spiral arrow was kinda explained poorly
Sleep Spiral Arrow + Reaper/Deathly Arrow or Petrify Spiral Arrow alone is just too good that it can immediately makes alot of fight EZ that you need to try really hard to make it fail..
Folks are 100% welcome to explain anything I missed in the comments so that it's at least somewhere for people to potentially see, I did in practice find that Spiral Arrow was actually pretty good hence the brief mention of it being cracked but there's a whole lot to consider at once when making these videos and while I really am doing my best some stuff is naturally gonna slip through the cracks, all I can do there is apologize and hope that the effort I put into things as a whole is enough to make up for that fact.
@@ThiefofCrystals That's fine.. I kinda understand that you don't want this guide to be 30 mins long withball the synergy and such and maybe I kinda worded that poorly.
It's a really good, concise, direct to the point guide I'll give you that for sure.
I can confidently say that Wanted is based on real physics. And if your country let you inherit a small arsenal from some great uncle you didn't know, you too could try it.
I love the Ranger but it is absolutely a late/end game class. At lower levels longbow skills will drain your stamina in a heartbeat.
Only really true on hard mode. Plus it has the best stamina growth in the game, so it can be worth the pain. In fact, if you can swing it, it usually is. 🙃
I immediately removed radiance from my skill list. What was I thinking 😅
Another poor soul saved from the clutches of radiance
@@ThiefofCrystals This is funnier to read after the sacrifice you made for the Brawler video.
@@N.0rmus A grave sacrifice indeed...
Blast arrows.
Making fun of them for not being able to see without a lantern, try not having a flashlight when it's dark. xD
Just started playing this game for the first time (well actually 2nd time, but I never played all that much when it came out)
2:42 .... 6 times the damage??? Does the game ever tell you this in any way?
3:53 had no idea how this skill worked until now....
5:49 imo the worst skill I've seen so far...
Bow and arrow in Dragon's Dogma is easy mode.
Have to thumbs down as an archer main in DA:O
LMAO honestly fair enough man
This dude said archery in skyrim is "fun" what a rube
Acting like basically every mfer who played that game didn't end up circling around to it at some point smh
Ranger is boring, you can only use 3 archery skills, it become boring soon, like Warrior. At least Warrior have some core movesets and jumping attacks, but Ranger have none making it even more boring than Warrior. Since we focused on long range battle, we won't be using those dagger skills, making all of them wasted.
While I understand where you're coming from, I can't personally agree. Long range is definitely the focus and when a fight's going your way an enemy won't be able to reach you, but not all of them will play ball and although I recommended Endecad in place of daggers it takes a minute to set up, so when you need a fast and effective option in close-to-mid range daggers are still your best bet and you benefit from fantastic skills like Cutting Wind and Hundred Kisses. Also, it absolutely does have access to core movesets and jumping attacks, I'm not sure why that's a concern.
@@ThiefofCrystals No it doesn't have core movesets, only shooting in one direction, that is all.
@@MizanQistina I'm referring to the daggers, it has the same core skills as all yellow classes. And funnily enough, you actually can fire the bow after jumping if you're in the air long enough.
@@ThiefofCrystals If want to play melee better to take melee class, Ranger supposed to be range focused and it is boring.
@@MizanQistina It's perfectly fine if you simply don't enjoy it, that's entirely subjective though, just as people have fun with Warrior plenty have fun with Ranger too.
Can you not make more than one character at a time lol?
You're only allocated one save file. Most likely to manage the pawn system and prevent exploits within it.
