How to Give Your Pawn a Specialization
InDragon’s Dogma 2, Specializations are unique traits that every pawn possesses. There are a total of5 Specializations in the game, and luckily, you can also change the specialization of your pawn.
Bear in mind that you can only change the specialization of your main pawn and will not be able to alter the specialization of your recruited pawns.
Nevertheless, to give your pawn a new specialization, you will need toget a specialization Tome. There are five different Specialization Tomes, which you can obtain either byincreasing your affinity with NPCsor by completing various side quests. While finding some of these Tomes is easy, some can be hard to acquire. In order to make the process easier for you, we’ve listed the procedure of acquiring them in the table below.
How to Get
Chirurgeon’s Tome
This can be obtained by completing the Medicament Predicament side-quest in Melve.
Woodland Wordsmith’s Tome
This can be obtained by increasing your affinity with one of the Elves in Sacred Harbor.

Once you have obtained any of them, now go into yourInventory. Navigate to theImplementation Tab, select theTome, and apply it to yourPawn. However, it is important to note that you can only use these Tomes for one time and once you have given your pawns a new Specialization, it will overwrite their previous specializations.
Once you’ve changed the specialization, it’ll immediately take effect. Nevertheless, in order to change the specialization again, players will need to get their hands on another Tome of a different type.
You can change the specialization as many times as you want to, provided you’ve required Tomes.
