Vocations are basically identifying the gameplay style of your game, and the weapons that you can use. To explain the system in detail, we made this Dragon’s Dogma Vocations guide.
You can choose between different vocations in the game as long as you unlock them with Discipline Points; making them your temporary choices as you progress through the game.
Dragon’s Dogma Vocations
Each vocation has its own separate ranking system so you don’t have to worry about losing the progress that you made with a particular vocation if you wish to change it. There are a total of nine vocations divided into three groups with each having its strengths, weaknesses as well as skills.
For more help on Dragon’s Dogma, read our Stats Growth and Augments Guide.
