Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2\u2019s Dragonsplague to be nerfed in future patch CapcomOne of Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2\u2019s mechanics, Dragonsplague, has been quite the hot topic in the community since the game\u2019s launch, and it\u2019s finally getting a nerf. Horror stories about the Dragonsplague mechanic leaving players\u2019 pawns to destroy cities and cut off questlines have been circulating since the game first launched in March. Identifying the initial symptoms can be quite difficult, though a recent post from Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2\u2019s official X account mentioned that a change is coming to make the ailment \u201cmore noticeable.\u201d According to the post, one of the planned updates for Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 will include a visual change that makes glowing eyes on pawns more visible. For those who don\u2019t know or have yet to encounter this mechanic in the game, it is basically a contagious disease that can infect your pawns. The symptoms include pawns being more aggressive and snarky, being seen holding their head as if they\u2019re having a headache, and their eyes starting to flicker and glow red. However, the last one could be tricky to spot at times. If left untreated, it could lead them to go on a rampage, killing all NPCs in sight. This sickness can be triggered after fighting a dragon and even from pawns that players hire from the rift. Regarding this mechanic, some players even took extreme measures by throwing their pawns in water the second they started acting suspiciously. Additionally, there\u2019s also a mod called Dragonsplague Counter that lets you check infected pawns. With this mod, you\u2019ll be able to identify how far a pawn has become infected, as there\u2019ll be a number on the pawn\u2019s forehead indicating the Dragonsplague level. At 7, the pawn\u2019s eyes begin to glow, while 10 is the maximum value. With the changes to Dragonsplague, identifying sick pawns before they get worse should be easier.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
