Dragon’s Dogma 2
How To Summon Pawns
By interacting with a Riftstone, players will enter the Rift along with any Pawns they currently have. The Rift will befull of other players' Pawns that are around the same level as the Arisen.Each of these Pawns can be approached and talked to, where their stats, rating, and Arisen Details will be listed. The stronger the Pawn is in regards to the Arisen, themore RC they will cost to recruit.Recruiting a Pawn is as easy astalking to them in the Rift and selecting “Hire.”
Players canonly have two additional Pawns summoned at a timeand will need to dismiss one or both Pawns before recruiting others.Summoned Pawns won’t gain XP and level up,so dismissing and recruiting new ones often is good practice.Items in a Pawn’s inventory, when dismissed, will also disappear,so be sure to get any items back before dismissing them.
When dismissing a Pawn, players cangive a giftto that Pawn that will be given to that Pawn’s Arisen as a thank you.Upon dismissal, players can also leave a rating for that Pawn which will appear for other players when deciding if they want to recruit that Pawn. A Pawn’s gear and stats aredetermined by their gear at stats in their Arisen’s world at the time of being summoned.This is also true for your own Pawn, which will also be randomly summoned by other players without any effect on you using your Pawn in your own game.
