Dragon’s Dogma 2 has been out for only over a week, and it’s already one of the most-played titles. The title follows a character named Arisen, played by players, as they go against a dangerous and powerful dragon. The game has several vocations or classes that are varied by different playstyles.

Players can explore the vast open world of the game while fighting monsters and other enemies as part of these vocations. While all the vocations in Dragon’s Dogma 2 are good, there is one build that’s quite powerful compared to others, and players not using it are definitely missing out.

Dragon’s Dogma 2 currently has ten vocations, including four basic and six advanced. The basic vocations include Mage, Fighter, Archer, and Thief, and are available at the start of the game. The advanced vocations include Warrior, Sorcerer, Magick Archer, Mystic Spearhead, Trickster, and Warfarer, which are available later in the game.

All these vocations have different skills, weapons, and combat styles that make them unique, but one build has been very popular among the players for how powerful it is. An X/Twitter user and Dragon’s Dogma 2 player shared a clip of them fighting a dragon and another monster, and they can be seen taking it down single-handedly.

The player is playing Magick Archer and uses magic bows, shooting at the monsters and blasting them off. They added that the build is a “little bit too OP,” and it is also seen that the player was at level 23 when they did this.

Several players have agreed to this, with one player saying that they used Magical Archer in the first game, and they definitely “agree” that it is more powerful now. A player added that Magick Archer is well-balanced, and the health-to-damage trade is also balanced better than other classes.

One player said that Magick Archer was the best class in Dark Arisen, and it only makes sense that it is more powerful in Dragon’s Dogma 2. Some players also asked how they could unlock this vocation to take down dragons easily.

Magick Archer is a hybrid of the Archer and Mage vocations in the game and is a fan favorite. The class uses magic bows as the main weapon, but players cannot unlock them until they progress a little further in the game. Players will particularly need to complete a quest to unlock Magick Archer.

Players need to complete the “Put a Spring in Thy Step” quest, which is quite easy, but some tasks are to be done carefully. They need to find Drabnir’s Grotto and then interact with a dwarf named Gautstafr. The players will then need to find three wildflowers.

After this, players will need to take Gautstafr to his home and then to a hot spring, and the quest will be complete, unlocking Magick Archer. What are your thoughts about the Magick Archer vocation? Are you playing Dragon’s Dogma 2? Let us know in the comments.
