A-tier: Mystic Spearhand
If the Magick-Archer is the best vocation in Dragon’s Dogma 2 when it comes to a single ability that can lay waste to foes, then the Mystic Spearhand has the top option when considering a single skill that boosts survivability. It’s none other than Mirour Vesture–which is just a regular skill, mind you.
When cast, Mirour Vesture creates an impenetrable barrier for you and your allies. It affects the Arisen, the pawns in your party, and even friendly NPCs that are with you on a quest/escort mission. The barrier lasts for eight seconds, and makes you impervious to all forms of damage. Watch as explosive barrages from Dragons or Golems do barely a tickle.
Survivability is what makes the Mystic Spearhand a great vocation, but its damage pales in comparison to those mentioned above. Even its ultimate technique, Wild Furie, doesn’t deal as much damage as the Thief’s Skull Splitter. Still, the Mystic Spearhand is an A-tier class, and one that you should always try out in your playthrough.
