Maybe you’re cruising on an Oxcart to Melve or taking a leisurely walk in Vernworth when an Ogre barges in to ruin your day. In Dragon’s Dogma 2, you’re usually in control of your fate—except when a towering, hairy Ogre crashes the party to turn your day sour. I’ll help you defeat Ogres in Dragon’s Dogma 2.
Ogres Weakness in Dragon’s Dogma 2
Ogres are weak to Ice and Fire damage in Dragon’s Dogma 2. They can also be put to sleep easily, a state in which they take more damage. Their weak spot is their head, so smack them right in the face.
Best strategy to beat Ogres in Dragon’s Dogma 2
The best strategy to defeat an Ogre in Dragon’s Dogma 2 is to exploit its attraction to female-looking Arisens and deal as much Fire and Ice-aspected damage as possible on its head.
The best team to bring to a battle against an Ogre is a Fighter or Warrior female tank, a Sorcerer or Mage with Ice or Fire spells, a Thief, and an Archer. This party composition only works if the only female party member is the Fighter or Warrior, who should work as a tank to draw the Ogre’s attention, while the rest of the team focuses on unleashing damage.
- Melee units should climb on the Ogre’s back and aim for their head to deal the most damage. Keep an eye on your stamina bar and the Ogre’s back-dropping attack.
- Ranged units should aim their spells and arrows at the Ogre’s head and stay at a distance to avoid stomping or slamming damage.
