Recently, the pawns have been reportedly being infected by an actual in-game disease known as Dragonsplague.Dragon’s Dogma 2is anyway filled with enough dangers. Adding to them is the latest Dragonsplague inDragon’s Dogma 2. So if you spot your pawn behaving weirdly, here are some things you need to know about the disease.

It only affects Pawns

The infection of Dragonsplague affects only Pawns inDragon Dogma 2. It makes the infected pawns violent, aggressive, and dismissive of their master’s orders. The plague is usually contracted by hiring an already infected pawn. Besides, it can also be contracted through combat interactions with drakes and dragons, where it is capable of spreading between party members.

If left unaddressed, the infected who have contracted full-blown Dragonsplague can transform into a shadowy dragon and lay waste to entire towns full of people. Dragonsplague can cause the deaths of scores of Vernworth residents.

It is incurable

Unfortunately, Dragonsplague is incurable inDragon’s Dogma 2. Consuming traditional flasks or curative items cannot cure the disease.

The main pawns need to be killed, while the support pawns hired by the player can be quickly dismissed. This is the only effective way of preventing them from spreading the disease. However, it cannot be actually cured.

One of the most visible signs of a pawn being infected is the red eyes of the pawns. The pawn who is infected will have eerie red eyes, normally different from what is seen during character creation. Besides, the game also gives a notification that the pawn is infected.

If the players spot a pawn with red eyes while inside the Rift, and they do not see a notification or warning, then the red eyes may be typically from character creation.
