As with any RPG, your character's stats are naturally important. Particularly in a game like Dragon's Dogma 2 where their usefulness changes depending on which vocation you play. But what does each stat do? How does the game handle stat distributions on level up since you don't manually assign them? In this guide, we'll explain everything we know about the system.
What Determines Stat Growth on Level Up?
Unlike in the first game, in Dragon's Dogma 2 your current Vocation determines the distribution of your stat growth. It is worth noting, however, that the game does move your stats around depending on which Vocation you select. In general, everyone's stat growth will look a little different depending on how often they're leveling up with different Vocations, but as a whole, you will still be able to play whichever class you want, whenever you want.
As a whole this is not something you want to worry about unless you're min/maxing your character.
