Launch your allies into air by boosting them with your shield.

Draw aggression away from your party by shouting loudly and pounding said shield.

The master of taking a pounding with oneвЂ™s shield while dishing it out with the sword.

If they are 'combat ready' then you can't grab them (I see a lot of people in videos trying to just randomly grab enemies to chuck them off of cliffs and thinking they missed, not realizing that they first have to hit the enemy with normal attacks to get them into a recoil or something first before they can grab them).Д®quipped with a sword and shield, the Fighter is capable of advanced melee skills along with the defensive maneuvers provided by the shield.

Its also probably worth noting that you can't grab a smaller enemy with either method unless they are in a 'hurt' state of some kind - recoiling, knocked over the ground, dead, etc. You can see your fighter Pawns do this frequently (at first I thought only Pawns could do it).ДЄgainst some enemies (like harpies) you'll pin them to the ground instead by doing this, and can then use an attack button to kick the pinned enemy. You can actually use this in the demo in the prologue to let goblins kill each other, by grappling one goblin and using it as a shield while the other goblins kill it trying to attack you. If you are a Fighter (and presumably other classes as well, but not Strider or Mage at least) you can either tap the button to hoist a smaller character on your shoulder, OR, hold the button down to hold the enemy in front of you and use it as a living shield.

I'm not sure many people know this or if its worthy of being in the original post, but there is a 3rd option for grabbing besides hoisting things on your shoulder or climbing larger enemies. There are three primary methods of attack in DragonвЂ™s Dogma: melee, range via bows, and range via magic. The Arisen is said to be the only one that can slay the dragon and with that throughout Dragon's Dogma the Arisen will be given choices that will shape the world.Д¬apcom also released a few digital comics to flesh out the lore of Gransys: He or she will have the ability to summon pawns from other worlds that best fits their party. When the Arisen first interacts with a rift stone is when they are able to acquire their main pawn, a pawn made from the rift to be their most trustworthy companion. The dragon and the arisen connected through the scar left on his or her chest and can communicate with one another through that scar.Д®very Arisen has a legion of loyal companions known as pawns that only follow them without question to the most deadly of journeys. They are chosen by the dragon to go on a journey to seek it out for reasons unknown. Out of some miracle the person that should be dead survives hence making them known as the Arisen. * When the Dragon returns to the world it chooses a person of a certain worth, ripping out their heart and devouring it. A dragon kills you and rips out your heart.Previews have assured us that the world is indeed quite vast it perhaps doesnвЂ™t have the pure sq.km of some of the other games, but accounting for the size of its underhalls and buildings, it should offer, in the end, a sizable area to explore. However, as the map of the game shows, presumably there will be more grasslands and castles and barns to explore along with underground dungeons and ice-peaks and forests and stormy coastlines. The World (click below for the world map)ДragonвЂ™s Dogma takes place in Gransys, a nation that, from what weвЂ™ve seen of videos and pictures released before release, consists mainly of grasslands, a single castle, and a barn.
