The Dragon’s Dogma 2 Mystic Spearhand vocation is an advanced class players unlock through a specific character - Sigurd - later on, and mixes a combination of sweeping melee attacks and quick blasts of magic. Considered one of the more complexDragon’s Dogma 2 vocations, the Mystic Spearhand is actually limited to the Arisen only - meaning that your Pawns won’t be able to try it out. Not only that, but finding it is completely optional, so players might miss this one altogether, even reaching the end of theDragon’s Dogma 2and never even knowing it’s an option!
Of course, if you want to try it out for yourself, that doesn’t have to be the case. We’ll explain how to get the Dragon’s Dogma 2 Mystic Spearhand vocation class below, and how it works when you have it.

Mystic Spearhands in Dragon’s Dogma 2 are advanced classes somewhere between the Thief and the Sorcerer. They’re effectivelymelee classes who mix in quick spellcastingto amplify their attack, and are best playedincredibly offensively.Their unique power is to fire off a fast “Redouted Bolt” of magic that interrupts and briefly stuns enemies, which is supposed to be used to maintain offensive combos continuously.
TheBolt is essential to learn here, as the class can’t function well without it. You’re basically playing hyper-aggressively, and can’t relent for a moment, or else your enemies will have the chance to retaliate. For this reason, I suggest goinglight on armorto maintain the stamina for your constant barrage of attacks - you’re not supposed to take damage, after all. You’ll also need to be aware that occasionallymajor enemies like the Golemcan shrug off the bolt - test to see who can and can’t, and adjust accordingly.
