How to unlock the Trickster Vocation in Dragon’s Dogma 2

To unlock this class, you need to talk to Luz at the Reverent Shrine on the eastern side of Battahl. After making your way through the Checkpoint Rest Town, travel south to the Enoa Battahl Forest. From there, head to the east and locate the Reverent Shrine.

Once you reach this location, talk to Luz. Just a simple interaction with her in her astral form will unlock the Trickster Class. You don’t need to complete any specific quest or perform a specific task. If you are having trouble locating this NPC, you will naturally unlock the class during the Flickering Shadows quest. This quest will ask you to speak to an oracle which will take you directly to Luz where you unlock the vocation.

As soon as the class is unlocked, you can go to the Vocation Guild to switch over to the class for 200 Discipline Points. This will come with a new set of gear including the smoke weapon that the Trickster class uses for its illusions.

The Trickster Vocation plays much differently than any of the other classes. For instance, you can summon a Simulacrum of yourself that can draw enemy attention away from your allies. You can use this Simulacrum to draw enemy attention to other enemies as well, making your foes attack one another. Other abilities such as Fickle Floor allow you to create false platforms to lure enemies off of cliffs and more.
