What is your favorite Warfarer Combo? And which vocation should I make a video on next?

Who else uses this Vocation just to wear whatever the hell they want

Capcom messed up by making the "switch weapon" a FUCKING skill. Who thought that was a good idea? It's like they don't want us to have fun.

One of the best things about Warfarer too is that it'll level up your OTHER vocations as well. I was playing it for a bit, using only my greatsword and greatsword skills, but I leveld up thief, magick archer, mage, and sorcerer. It's good to help you raise levels for vocations you wanted to level up but not necessarily play.

Warfarer is the final vocation. Mastery of multiple classes allow you to synergize these classes through the warfarer. Consider roaming with just yourself or maybe a mage support pawn. It is monstrous fun and changes the game completely

This is why i love this vocation. The combinations of abilities are what sell it. Lot of people don't like it because its "weakened" compared to the primary vocations but thats the point. Its not meant to simply stay on a singular vocations style. Otherwise, why play it?

i main warfarer too. i did a upgraded trickster with it, dagger/shadowveil to dont be targetted, rally aroma to boost pawns then go to town with a duospear or the daggers. and the medusa bow without skills to murder flying things and rack massive xp.

The Witcher 3 music in the background is the cherry on top

Love the ICO music in the beginning. Great video. Such a fun vocation!

My warfarer build is a little mix between magick archer & thief. I use S-avalanche (i forget how to spell the skill) + boltchain strike (boltchain you can replace with whatever you like). I only use thief for the smoke when enemies get close to me, in which case I'll use my daggers if need be. Additionally, having the daggers allows for me to dash + carve when I'm on low stamina and GREATLY improves my mobility. Basically, whenever i run out of stamina from sprinting, i just dash + carve until my stamina regens.. its essentially unlimited sprint. It may not be the most min/max ideal setup, but it gives me range & close quarters viability with mobility. The game is easy enough, you don't really need all the extra damage.

I am working on the mod for this vocation where it adds weapon wheel for easy selection and optionally add time dilation while the wheel is on. I figured this was one of the QoL things that was needed.

i keep a mage staff just so i can use anodyne to heal myself in emergency, forgot i could also levitate

Mine is just simple sword and board. Switched to Warfarer so I can freaking use levitate to easily get those seeker tokens.

Or you could do what I do: Sword and Board all day, with a magic staff and bow for utility. All three spare abilities are Hyyyattt style! (Levitating/Healing and Ranged Attacks)

sorcerer+thief is op, flare+skull crusher is insane! beyblade let it rip!

Warfarer is so powerful. ive made a battle Mage. Sorc, Spearhand, Magic Archer. I have sorcs earthquake spell for good non element damage, stagger power & some aoe. Spearhands magic shield, i find it best to have melee part focus its defence as stat wise you will probably be lacking a bit. Magic Archers tracking ice bolts, good damage & can cc. I've gone for more physical defence armour, but still styled, so fighter best chest, best physical defence pants, best spearhand helm. Obviously best weapons for all, that dragonforged sells. Playstyle changes per enemy & you have a variety of tools & ways to tackle them so have fun 😁.

i like using ballbuster when farming drakes. super fast and super strong. love it. as for out and about, i actually really like greatsword-magick bow duo. skyward sunder, avalanche and frosthunter as the skills. skyward deals tonnes of knockdown and damage, frosthunter is great for shredding wings and stagger compliments skyward, and avalanche is fanstic for pinpoint murder from safe distance. and the sword is great for general mob encounters.

my warfarer combo is spearhand and magik archer, with skills all from spearhand and the bow is just for the range i needed when flyers fly too high

I like using casendant orb, frost arrow or blotchain stake for stick on damage with flare+ sagittate avalanche for a more range heavy build. My pawns would be fighter (main), mage and sorcerer for more flare hits to cap its 7 or thief for more farm with pilfer and skull splitter. Really like that fighter, thief and warrior tank build. Might want to try that out ❤

I mainly use it for fashion, but I've been running a mix of mystic spearhand and magic archer. Pretty fun.

My warfarer build. Weapons: 2h warrior, Theif Daggers Weapons skills: Skull splitter (Theif spin to win) Implicate (Theif "come over here) Heaven ward Sunder (Warrior knockdown) Rearmament (warfarer mastery skill) Passives: Thew (carry weight, Warrior) Exaltation (Sramina recovery, Mage) Subtlety (Less aggro, Thief) Vigor (Drains Stam slower when u clinging to a monster, Theif) Dominance (More knockdown power, Warrior) Detection (Eser to find seekers coins, Trickster) Pick what u want. This is a super strong build I'm feeling dragons in less den 30-60 sec. And it really easy and super easy

So hear me out. Flare, avalanche, and the shield from spearhand. You get the added benefit of the spears secondary to slow or paralyze. That gives you a perfect window to use flare in the perfect spot and finally you have the bow to proc flares explosions. And u use the shield to block damage while you set it up 🎉

The amount of damage indomitable lash does seems pretty poor for the time spent charging, when you could have just done two helm splitters instead. Augural Flare caps at 7 - 9 explosions also, so hitting it with more attacks than that won't add more explosions. You can get max explosions just by using MA basic attacks too. Avalanche is WAY too slow to be reliable for it, especially on targets that are constantly moving around. You need to hit the Flare at least once within three seconds or it disappears. It's still a good skill to have as one of your MA skills, but it's not good for Flare unless you just get lucky all of the time. edit: Alternatively, if you just want to stick with a Sorcerer, you can simply cast Levin directly after Flare to make it "stick", and either mash your button to continue the Levin bolts, or try auto attacking after the first three hits of Levin.

I do believe having 3 skills per weapon type would feel much better but I can’t blame them too much for keeping it simple if overly so

I run a duospear and magick bow. I run mirour shelde for defense, dragoun's foin for engage/disengage, and I haven't settled on a magic arrow skill quite yet. Not exactly a power combo, but a very versatile setup.

I've been playing a support wayfarer 1. Censor + buff skill 2. Double spear + shield skill 3. Mage staff for anodyne 4. Magic bow for range + ricochet hunter cus it's fun for cave clears 5. Archistaff for galvanize if needed Using the pawn buff augments Magick boost or polarity Subtlety and Stam regen And whatever else is left doesn't matter much I'm still changing parts of the build as I'm playing it to suit my liking Also magic boost ring and Stam regen ring But since it's more a support build maybe I'll switch the magic boost effects for added knockback And add that into my build

Dagger skill skull splitter, and sorcerer skill augural flare, and you’re good to go. Pop the flare, take advantage of dagger speed, and you’re sitting on massive damage on a near constant basis.

I actually use this vacation. So I'm able to equip 2 of the same weapon type. Just different elements or 1 knock back heavy one. Makes nuking dragons easy af.

Well that gives everyone a reason to actually play all the vocations, I like it! a gameplay reward for spicing up your playstyle

I love the background music from ICO

Warfarer is so much fun. I would even argue you should try it even you are using one single weapon for combat. Equiping a staff to gain access to levitation and heal, a shield to gain access to safe landing make exploration way too convenient, only at a price of one skill slot. Maybe the only exception is that you are building around the maister skill.

I use all weapons, My only skills are the bright light from the mage vocation (using that in combination with the heal ability to deal with undead.) The Flare spell from Sorcerer as its totally broken and stronger then most Maisters kills. And the "power-up" skill from the Trickster to buff my pawns.

I use the Trickster ability to buff allies instead of dagger’s skill. That way I can avoid close combat 100% of the time.

I have a Warfarer with only a spear and Magical bow. I use the spear charge, shield, and the same magical arrows for the bow. I use the spear mostly for in close enemies where I just spin it and kill everything. The shield is for mages and dragons that like to cast high level spells. Just pop shield and no sell their strongest attacks. I use the spear charge in case I want to target far away enemies or make silly terrain jumps to reach places. I have all of the knockdown talents plus dwarven upgrades and the ring. Also the ring that ups bow attacks when you're close. Just drop any enemy target his head with the spell arrow ability while standing basically on top of it and unleash and it will delete 3-4 life bars instantly. I walk through every enemy at this point Im hoping theres a difficult mode DLC or something because every enemy is easy mode.

I still gotta upgrade my vocations, but when I’m done I’m gonna use duospear, daggers, greatsword, and then magick bow. My skills are gonna be the spearhand dash, skull splitter and maybe ricochet shot, and then use my greatsword to do crazy damage with the wild swings

3 Warfarer build i use: In every build Staff is to fly around so please use the staff that can silence ennemies when you hit them as the Magic Power of the staff isn't important. 1 - "I just want to chill with an enhanced Thief" Build Weapons: Dagger + Bow / Magical Bow + Staff (to fly around + silence) - Skull Splitter - Masterful Kill - Cutting Wind 2 - "I really need to fuck everything up" Build (mostly with mod that tune the difficulty up by a lot) Weapons: Dagger + Magical Bow + Staff (to fly around + silence) - Skull Splitter - Sagittate Avalanche - Here depends on the mood: Masterful Kill if boss can be reach easily and dodge (easy jump on his back) Frosthunter Bolt (if i need to stay at range and want to apply frost effect) Remedy Arrow mainly to instant revive pawns 3 - "I just want to jump on you" Build (fun version) - Just to have some fun Weapons: Dagger + Mystic Spearhand (+ optional a Warrior Weapon if you want to use Surging Strike) + Bow / Magical Bow (for flying birds mainly) + Staff (Staff is mainly to fly around + silence) Here it's an optional setup to change a bit using Mystic Spearhand for the dash mainly - Skull Splitter - Gut & Run (to escape when stamina starts to get low as it deals dmg then you jump away) - Last spell it just preference: Safest is Masterful Kill (if you like Dark Souls style) OR Mystic Spearhand Shield More fun: Surging Strike (need a Warrior Weapon) / Dragoun's Foin (Mystic Spearhand) (alternate version) - Iteration for tryhard setup (with mods boosting game difficulty) Weapons: Dagger + Mystic Spearhand + Magical Bow (for flying birds & revive) + Staff (Staff is mainly to fly around + silence) - Skull Splitter - Gut & Run (to escape when stamina starts to get low) - Remedy Arrow (Magical Bow) mainly to instant revive pawns (this could be replace with Mystic Spearhand Shield but it's less smooth) Got a bit bored of the way Warfarer is design with only 3 skills in total. There's a mod that let you set up 3 spells for each weapons which makes it more fun, as you can switch between more playstyle. (still i suggest to not use ultimates (maisters skills) cause the mod allows it. Fun fact even if we might think this would mean more combo, at the end of the day Stamina is a problem so you end up using 2 to 4 spells but at least you can swap to a wand and do some magic gameplay for 3 or 4 packs of ennemies and then go back to standard. In addition the Sorcerer Spell that detonates (dont remember the name) doesn't last long enough to be that effective. In normal game it's okay (but honnestly with good weapons it's not needed at all) and with mods that increase the difficulty it's not worth a spell slot. Better cast 2x Sagittale Avalanche than having to switch to the wand cast the spell then quickly switch to the magical bow and cast the spell + Instant revive as more value for your pawns when difficulty is really high.

I did flamefang arrow, powder blast, high salamander. 🔥 build

Something to note is that you upgrade all of your vocations while using Warfarer, so for all those Arisens that are yet to master all vocations just equip a whatever weapon that vocation uses and watch the upgrading happen.

My combo is Warrior and Spearhand :) - sheld to prevent damage for unstoppab BONK, quik fot core skill for teleport BONK, and skydragon slam to reposition ontop of big enemies for teleport ontop of the head BONK. he fast, he no take damage, he BONK

I overlooked this vocation until the last vocation... man do I regret it! I was able to recreate the old MA from DD:DA!

Lethality and zeal are both 5% decrease so I'd consider replacing honestly

Not really too OP or anything, but i like to run Thief + Archer for a Strider build akin to DD1. Use skull splitter and the parry for thief, and incindiary arrow for the archer. and i'll carry a staff for out of combat anodyne to save curatives, and levitate for vertical platforming.

The main issue I have with warfarer is the lack of maister skills. I like playing thief most of the time.

For PC players I recommend the True Warfarer Mod which let's you equip 3 skills for every weapon you have linked to Rearmament. So if you wanna do a DD1 Magick Archer build you can have 3 dagger skills for Thief and 3 Magick Bow skills for Magick Archer

It’s a cool vacation that highlights how awful it feels only having 4 skills. Feels clunky if you don’t use the weapon swap skill. So you’re left with just 3 skill slots left.

Augural Warflarer build is awesome

I think transmog should be added to the game so no matter what vocation you are you can be fashionable but also not hindering your maximum potential

I'm still searching for drip that's even remotely appropriate but I plan on making an Iron Man style build using Spearhand for the shield, dash and quick fire ranged stun from the palm. Might rarely use it for actual melee engagement though. Mystic Archer for the avalanche. Sorcerer staff for the levitate and stamina charge.

as long as the vocation is maxed out, you can buy the skills from the warfarer skill selection window.

For taking down enemies I just use augral flare and switch to daggers and skull crusher. Nothing survives. One of the best things being a warfarer is to always switch to archer so I can use Medusa's bow for the final hit to get exp bonus.

Spear hand with fate, shield and holy mace with flawless shield, and flame mace with indomitable. I also use the holy staff because its usually just me and my fighter pawn. But thats my holy dive build. Yes i do play dio while roaming 😂

Hey, great guide! To maximize the knockdown, would you go with the dwarf upgrade for daggers?

here's me just jamming to his gwent bgm 3:40

“A jack of all trades is a master of none” one of my hired pawns..

The moment I heard that this Vocation exists, I was super excited. Because I play Sorcerer and I was kind of annoyed that I'm limited to only 4 weapon skills. So I thought you sacrificed one slot to get 3 new ones on any other weapon you have equipped. But once I hear that you don't get new weapon skill slots on other weapons and, if that wasn't bad enough, you can't use Maister skills AND your stats are reduced compared to the original vocation. Those 3 drawbacks are a dealbreaker to me and I'm gonna have to either ignore the vocation or mod it to the way it is supposed to be. With the only drawbacks of the vocation being the reduced stats and not stats + fewer skills + no Maister skills.

I don't get to use Augural Flare much because by the time I switch to a rapid attacking weapon, the Flare has dissipated (not exploded). I have magic archer (1), sorcerer (2), warrior (3), and thief (4), with sagittate (or ricochet for dungeons), flare, and mountain breaker. Maybe I should switch the thief/warrior placement? I think if you rotate through your weapons too much, the flare goes away. What do you think?

Cannot wait to unlock this vocation

I so wish Capcom would've made the weapon skill automatically equip that weapon. You'd free up that precious skill slot hogged by rearmament and also make it much easier to get to the weapon you want

Lol augural flare into skull splitter is also my combo. If i want to stay ranged, spiral arrow works too same with mystic archers first skill

Im using magick archer x sorcerer lol. Spamming that mag arch skills. Then use galvanize. Can solo anything.

What’s the best sized character for this vocation? Medium build I’m assuming. Some lmk pls I started with small build for thief but want to use this eventually and use warrior soon

At high levels this vocation is the best . Magic archer / avalanche/ archer / Medusa bow / warrior .

honestly warfarer isnt op at all, the fact you only get 3 skills and no master skills makes it awful compared to just doing something like playing a straight up thief where you can just become permanently invincible and deal out absolutely absurd damage at the same time, the class should really let you have a seperate skill wheel for every weapon type

I think imma just rock a heavy warrior with a bow and staff without without rearmament and just menu change to what I need at the time my issue with this game is they need to add more interaction with certain weapons or maybe add more effects like stun for hammers slash for swords to help take out monsters by cunning off limbs or breaking legs add more dynamic to classes with better skills because let’s be real tidal slash is a waste of a skill imo when the warriors main feat is hyper armour

Yo where do you get the dragons bite sword is it good?? Lmk please

aaaaand I now just understood that warfarer is not what I imagined ... I thought you get 3 skills per weapon ... Not 3 skills total of which you can only use the one that links up with the currently equipped weapon

Confirmed more recently that the Provocation augment does just as good a job as Shield Drum, and given the lack of skill slots on Warfarer this should probably be swapped out.

The game let's you be so powerful yet nothing dangerous enough to warrant going all out

🤔 interesting I’m play so far 3 class basic archer then 😅 warrior and mystic spear hand kinda magic archer broken strong like the dragon dogma the first I try avoid 😜 Thank you for info and have good days 🍻👍

I tried the second build but the flare disappears before I can get a single hit off with the bow or daggers

You can unlock skills as the wayfarer for the other classes

This is cool but having 3 or 4 wep doesn’t feel great to me. I’d rather do 2 for more skills. But that’s just me

0:17 just leave it to pawns to carry you xD

you can cast agro with greatsword so i dont find the point on having shield + sword

you don't even need to use rearmament you can just go into your inventory and switch weapons that way but still have 4 skills to use

I wonder how that sorcerer magick archer setup would work for the end game area gonna have to try that out and see sounds like it could be fun

my only gripe with warfarer is that rearmament takes a skill slot all of my ideas just that need that one extra slot to make it perfect

I just made a Strider, since we all know it got split into thief and ranger

Bro warfarer is only there for fashion for me. Best and easiest damage is just theive with both maister abilities. Formless faint dodges the self damage of the other maister ability (forgot the name), which allows some crazy damage.

the Ball what-

or use mod so you get full skillset for each warfarer weapon or another mod that adds second skillset for each warfarer weapon aka 7 skills per weapon :)

Why people ever thought wayfarer was weakest.. I just can not fathom.

Tip. I can’t stress this enough do not use straightforward Warriors pawns. They are bad. Bad bad bad. Half the time you’re trying to revive them cuz they are the first to die. I can’t stress this enough “calm” is the best build for most vocations. Especially an archer. And a calm fighter utilises the shield even more effective than players not gonna lie. That’s why in advance search you can choose any vocation make sure they have “calm” as their thingy. It’s saves you trouble. Straightforward is Bad Bad Bad. Unless sorcerer but even calm is slightly better cuz they will land their Ult more. Whereas Straightforward pawns usually use the moves that are quick and simple to use hence “Straightforward”

i use magic bow + sorcerer and melt everything it's crazy.

I got the wayfarer and selected uber skills but somehow could only use 1 of them in combat for the final boss dragon.

Warfarer should’ve been like in the first game where you have 6 skills split over 2 weapons Let us pick 2 weapons to equip (as long as the vocation is maxed) and give us 3 skill slots for each…the Warfarer is called the Arisen vocation in Japanese Anyway, I run Magick Archer & Mystic Spearhand: Frostseeker Bolt + Irradiant Orb (great utility in the dark) + Mirour Vesture…it’s kinda like being a magic Strider

you can dragon forge rearmament and the stamina cost is not really noticeable at that point

Sorcerer, magic spear hand, and thief

That gwent music is fire….

It's kool but I prefer just have a little weight and just pause and switch to each weapon cause I all four skill slot

I still don't understand why you want the skill that draws enemies towards you. I don't really understand the ability in general. Is it to save your weaker pawns from damage? I mean, I don't struggle with enemies choosing to attack me.

Honestly thief and archer especially having both maister skills

so you use a warrior and use all weapons?

I'll probably do a pure Thief build using Warfarer. Formless Feint just makes fights easy mode and kinda killed my enjoyment of the class. Instead I would do like you said with having elemental dagger swaps and maybe throw a Mage staff for levitation/heal or Sorcerer staff for levitation/stamina regen when out of combat. Plus I can wear whatever armour I want.

Currently working on maxing out all my vocations then going into this one. Just have archer & warrior left currently

I only use greatsword and magic bow and its one of the most fun i had in the game including DDA

Honestly I rather prefer using a mace & shield incase i run into a enemy where they can cause you recoil when you do slash damage and resistant to magic.

I have the warfarer but i dont get the rearmament skills what do i do ? please

Okay. How about fun build not necessarily strong, not that efficient but fun and flashy. I don't wanna be overpowered. I wanna know how fun build looks like!

Bro stop, your going to get my class nerfed.
