Dragon’s Dogma 2: Best Party Combinations [Top 4]

It is important to have the best party composition in Dragon’s Dogma 2 if you want to defeat the vile end-game bosses and enemies. When choosing the Vocations for your party, it is important to keep them as versatile as possible. Therefore, your party should have good support, a frontline Fighter, and a long-ranged damage dealer. 

Best Party Combinations Picks

Below is an overview of some of the best party compositions that you can go for:

Ranged Party 

You can never go wrong with a ranged party in Dragon’s Dogma 2. If your Arisen is a Fighter or a Warrior, then you will need ranged vocations in your party to balance it out.

As you will be taking almost all of the attacks by your enemies and bosses, you will need maximum support. Vocations like Mage, Archer, and Sorcerer are best for frontline Fighters. While Sorcerer and Archer will amp up your offense, Mage will do all the healing and also help you remove any debuffs from allies. 

Vocations For The Party 

Below is a list of classes for the ranged party composition:

DPS Party 

If you want a party capable of dealing serious damage, then I will recommend going for the Fighter, Warrior, and thief combo. This party will focus heavily on offense by using physical and melee vocations.

For your Arisen, I would recommend choosing Thief. Your main pawn can be a Mage, and your support pawns can be from your physical vocations, such as Fighter or Warrior.

These three vocations are a must for this party. It is extremely important to keep a Mage in your party for healing and providing buffs to your allies. Furthermore, Mage will also deal ranged damage using spell attacks. 

Vocations For The Party 

Below are the recommended positions for the vocations in the DPS party:

Balanced Party 

For the best-balanced party, you need to have a pawn of all four major vocations in Dragon’s Dogma 2. You’re Arisen can be either an Archer or a thief. Your main pawn should be a Mage, and you can choose Fighter as your support.

Archer will help you cover a great range, and you will be able to deal with attacks from a distance. Your Fighter and thief will cover the front lines while the Mage will do all the healing and provide you with buffs. For players just starting out in Dragons Dogma 2, this balanced party composition is the best one to use. 

Vocations For The Party 

Below are the party’s recommended vocations and positions:

Spell Casters Party 

In case you’re like me and enjoy casting spells and attacking enemies from a distance. Then this spellcaster party composition is the best for you in-game.

For the party, the Arisen will be either a Mage or a Sorcerer. You can also choose the Mystic Spearhand vocation when you unlock it, later on, to deal with the end-game bosses and enemies. Your support pawn will be a Sorcerer if you want to spell sync. And for physical vocations, you can go to Fighter and Archer. 

If you have chosen a Sorcerer as your Arisen, make sure to add another Sorcerer to the party to perform a spell sync. Doing so will allow you to double the damage to enemies using the same spells as your support Sorcerer pawn. The spellcaster party will solely focus on dealing damage using magic.

My Verdict On Choosing The Optimal Party Combination

Choosing the best party can be quite frustrating because there are a number of different vocations to choose from. However, you can always change your vocation as well as your support pawns. Therefore, you can try out all of the party compositions mentioned above and go for the one that is best suited to your playstyle.
