Surprisingly, you can select three Pawns, one of which will be your main companion, and the other two will be your recruit. These Pawns help your character by providing helpful hints on quests and identifying enemy weaknesses. Besides that, they are also used to handle various tasks encountered in the game.

Every Pawn comes equipped with its own set of special skills and abilities known as Specializations that help to determine the basic strengths and skills of Pawns. So far, six identified Pawn Specializations have been mentioned below.

How to Give Your Pawn a Specialization

In Dragon’s Dogma 2, Specializations are unique traits that every pawn possesses. There are a total of 5 Specializations in the game, and luckily, you can also change the specialization of your pawn.

Nevertheless, to give your pawn a new specialization, you will need to get a specialization Tome. There are five different Specialization Tomes, which you can obtain either by increasing your affinity with NPCs or by completing various side quests. While finding some of these Tomes is easy, some can be hard to acquire. In order to make the process easier for you, we've listed the procedure of acquiring them in the table below.

Once you have obtained any of them, now go into your Inventory. Navigate to the Implementation Tab, select the Tome, and apply it to your Pawn. However, it is important to note that you can only use these Tomes for one time and once you have given your pawns a new Specialization, it will overwrite their previous specializations.

Once you've changed the specialization, it'll immediately take effect. Nevertheless, in order to change the specialization again, players will need to get their hands on another Tome of a different type.
