Helldivers 2 has a wide variety of terrain to overcome, each one filled with bots, bugs, and any other sentient alien race that would prefer you to be a red stain on the floor. You'll struggle to find a location as universally despised as Hellmire though, a bug-ridden planet prone to the odd fire tornado, and one that Helldivers 2 players aren't going anywhere near anytime soon.
Dragon's Dogma 2 Players Really Hate The Trickster Vocation
06.04.2024 - 02:49 / thegamer.com
Dragon's Dogma 2 has lots of interesting Vocations for you and your pawn to mess around with, but there's one that almost no one seems to like - the Trickster.
One of the best things about Dragon's Dogma 2's core gameplay loop is how many different gameplay styles the player is able to choose from thanks to the Vocation system. Whether it's the sword-and-shield-wielding Warrior, the life-saving Mages, or the hybrid classes like the Magick Archer, you're guaranteed to find at least one class in Dragon's Dogma 2 that suits your playstyle.
As much fun as I've had jumping between different Vocations and trying out all of their unique abilities, there's one that I have barely touched - the Trickster. Unlocked relatively late in the game, this supportive Arisen-exclusive class allows the player to conjure up smokey illusions that distract enemies while boosting the attack power of your pawns.
That sounds cool, right? Well, it certainly did before Dragon's Dogma 2 actually launched, but in practice, it's a total dud of a class choice that is a chore to level up thanks to how long battles take with such a supportive style. Since your main weapon doesn't do any damage, either, you're completely reliant on your Pawns and the enemy AI falling for your smokey tricks, which takes a lot of patience and set-up compared to just hitting them with a sharp stick.
I thought that I might just be lacking the patience that is clearly needed for the Trickster Vocation and that other players might be having a better time with it, but I was surprised to learn that pretty much everyone hates Dragon's Dogma 2's strangest Vocation. Over on the Dragon's Dogma 2 subreddit, most of the posts to do with Trickster are complaining about how bad it is in a seemingly endless number of ways.
"This isn't some "As thief I kill bosses in 10 seconds my warrior takes 20 seconds!" type of issue either. Trickster just fundamentally doesn't work about 70 percent of the time."
One of the most popular posts on the subreddit comes from Redditor FrogPopStar, who sounded surprised when they said, "Trickster is kind of awful?". They laid out pretty much all of the reasons that the class is bad, from its easily interrupted clones to the Pawn buff taking up health for a class that doesn't have a way to heal.
Combine that with the fact that most battles don't even take place near cliffs (which is where the Trickster thrives) and it's hard to see why anyone would pick Trickster over any of the other Vocations. You might think that this is just one particularly annoyed Dragon's Dogma 2 player, but the comments are full of complaints about it and agree that it's the least effective way to play the game.

Dragon Dogma 2’s cursed endgame is nothing but dessert
Dragon’s Dogma 2 is about the journey, not the destination. It’s about exploring routes you’ve never taken before, camping in the wilderness, and having an unexpected run in with a Minotaur. Quests objectives are also left intentionally vague, forcing you to puzzle things out and speak to as many people as you can. If you could just easily fast travel to obvious quest markers you could certainly check them off your list more efficiently, but then you’d miss out entirely on the adventure of getting there.

@ApostateMage haha these moments are the best. This is the location I had wandered off to while getting side tracked from everything else. I went in a sorcerer (I think) and came back as a Magick Archer, then switched to thief at Bakbhattal after i'd levelled up to about MA lv5.

@Splat You aren’t really. The game is designed to be played multiple times so if you can’t stumble upon it, theoretically that is what NG+ is for.
