In an enormous map that makes its predecessor look tiny, Dragon's Dogma 2 tasks players with taking the mantle of the Arisen once more and besting the very dragon that chose their path. Across the two kingdoms of Vermund and Battahl, players will have more than enough opportunities to test themselves in battle against an array of human and mythological threats to keep their combat skills sharp.
In the process of improving your character, players will notice that they regularly receive XP for their feats of strength and intelligence, however they also receive additional rewards that are marked as DCP. For players wanting to know what DCP, or discipline, is, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know about earning and using DCP in Dragon's Dogma 2.

What Is Discipline (DCP) In Dragon's Dogma 2?
Discipline (DCP) is an indicator of progression in Dragon's Dogma 2 that allows you to improve your Arisen character outside the realms of standard leveling, and will directly impact on what rank you are in your chosen vocation. That's not to say you won't be following a typical level progression in the game, but this is managed by the amount of experience points (XP) you earn along the way. In contrast to XP, there is a specific way to earn DCP, which you can spend on rewards at the right vendors. The amount you earn is determined as a percentage of the experience you gain, so the two go hand in hand in the game.
Discipline points are a form of currency in Dragon's Dogma 2 that can only be spent on skills and other facets of your chosen vocation, whereas the likes of weapons and armor are covered by gold. To spend DCP in the game, you will need to visit an Inn that allows you to change your vocation. In the same menu where you can select a new vocation, you will also be able to select and unlock weapon skills, augments, core skills, and even other vocations by spending the DCP you currently have.
How To Earn DCP Fast In Dragon's Dogma 2
DCP is best earned by completing great combat feats, meaning you will earn a varying amount each time you and your party of Pawns manage to slay an enemy. The amount of DCP you earn coincides with the XP you gain, which is ultimately decided according to how difficult the game deems your fallen enemy to have been to overcome. This means that the harder an enemy is to beat, the more DCP you earn. With that in mind, the fastest way to farm DCP is to kill as many enemies as possible, particularly more challenging ones like Trolls, Ogres, Griffins, and Dragons.
In addition to flexing their combat prowess, players can also increase the amount of DCP they earn by equipping the right augments and rings for the job. Rings such as the
Ring of Endeavor can increase the amount of DCP you earn at a time. The catch is, however, that you need to acquire 220 Seeker Tokens to earn this item, so it may not even be necessary by the time you earn it.
