A new feature (compared to the first episode) has arrived on Dragon's Dogma 2: the possibility of camping. In this article, we explain its importance, but also the different ways to obtain camping equipment to sleep under the stars.
Camps... What are they for in Dragon's Dogma 2?
Dragon's Dogma II has a day and night system. Thus, approximately every 50 minutes, dusk will fall, giving way to complete night.
Traveling at night can have disadvantages as well as advantages. The main difficulties result in a very reduced field of vision, so much so that we cannot discern the elements around us, and ambushes become much more dangerous. However, traveling at night can also be good, particularly for encountering very specific adversaries (wraiths, skeletons, undead, etc.), but also for identifying nocturnal resources such as golden beetles or even bioluminescent flowers.
Except that these outings under the stars are often our doing! The camps are there to help adventurers brave the difficulties of the night and recharge their batteries.
By setting up on a campfire, and then setting up camp equipment, you will be able to rise at dawn (or dusk) with full hit points and modify your skills. But that's not all, because the camp offers another feature that is very interesting: the preparation of small dishes.
By interacting with the pot placed on the fire, you can choose between the different pieces of red meat that you have in your inventory to grill it. By eating the dish you have made, your character and his pawns will be able to obtain numerous bonuses which will be useful for visiting a cave or confronting a significant opponent (a chimera for example).
What are the bonuses given to dishes eaten in a camp?
We told you just before, but having a bite to eat in a camp you have established brings statistical bonuses to your characters. After a good meal and a good night's sleep, your characters will benefit from a temporary bonus when leaving the camp which modifies defense, strength, or even mobility.
Before a fight against an elite monster or a cave that seems to be full of many opponents, eating at camp proves to be an excellent alternative to temporarily gain power.
The higher the quality the meat, the more powerful the effects will be. Here, the origin of the meat is important; a net or a paving stone will not provide the same bonuses. But this difference is minimal when compared to the quality of the meat. The fresher your meat, the worse the bonuses will be. While meat that has matured over time will give you better bonuses. However, don't wait until your meat is rotten, otherwise the effects will be poor. Here's an example so you can get an idea of the difference.
- Beast Pavement
- Strength: ++++
- Defense: ++++
- Endurance: ++++
- Refined beast steak
- Strength: +++++
- Defense: +++++
- Endurance: +++++
- Recovery: +++++
