Pawn Inclinations List and Guide for Dragon’s Dogma 2
What are Pawn Inclinations?
Trait that determines a Pawn’s behavior and personality.
Pawn Inclinations are a key mechanic under Traits in Dragon’s Dogma 2 that determines a Pawn’s behavior and personality in battle. This system functions similarly to the one found in the Dragon’s Dogma and Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen, allowing you to more easily form a party of adventurers with roles that complement and synergize with each other.
There are a total of four (4) types of Inclinations, each with their own unique benefits and drawbacks based on your own playstyle and vocation. Because of this, try to consider a Pawn’s Inclination and value to the party when hiring them at The Rift.
List of All Pawn Inclinations (Traits)
Inclination | Key Traits and Behavior |
---|---|
Kindhearted | Generally balanced combat role in battle but leaning more towards support. |
Calm | Focused on defense and evasion in battle. |
Simple | Active in looting items from defeated enemies after battle. |
Straightforward | Very aggressive and will frequently fight enemies head-on. |
Other Effects of Pawn Inclination
Affects voice type and in-battle dialogue.
A Pawn’s Inclination will also determine their voice type and dialogue when engaged in battle. Straightforward Pawns, for instance, tend to have deeper voices and may speak in a rough manner.
Conversely, Calm Pawns have a more calculating demeanor when fighting enemies and speak with more restrained emotions.
Unique Actions
Pawn Inclination also affects what unique actions a Pawn will perform in battle which can give you the advantage in certain situations as you take on a variety of enemies in the game.
Best Pawn Inclinations when Hiring Pawns
Consider the Pawn’s Specialization as well.
When hiring Pawns based on their Inclination, it is also recommended to also consider their Specialization as both of these traits will determine their role and usefulness to your party.
