@JBeckman
Does the second time count as soon as you enter BBI again after killing Daimos?
Or must you start a NewGame+ ?

The dungeon resets every time you kill the Daimon, it also locks so you can't use any of the shortcuts you've previously unlocked (Though the in-dungeon locked doors remain unlocked.) to skip part of it, chests and the like respawn as well so you'll get a ton of those cursed trinkets as a result if you do decide to brave it again, plus you can get more moon crystals as well for those special doors for even better loot.
(So you can do both runs immediately - or more. - but it's not exactly easy and after going through all that there's the Daimons second form too although I heard a certain other being is even worse.* )

 Spoiler: |
That would be Death of course, not only does he have special attacks but his normal attack instantly kills both you and pawns if it hits - plus pawns are de-summoned immediately. - so fighting him can't be especially fun but it's one of the contracts you can undertake if you're up to it. (Some other contracts also take place in dungeons on the mainland it seems.)
(Pawns aren't exactly smart so be prepared for Death killing them, likely you've already noticed this as he's a bit like a spam pop-up annoyance during your descent through Bitterblack even in the first run.)

Yeah death is pretty easy at my level (92). I just use +magic damage buff x4 and then spam holy affinity focused bolts (core skill)  I've just met it for the first time and I forced it to run away like a little beatch

Easy way is to spam blast arrow 10x skill with ranger and just stun lock it, max and over weight each pawn with blash arrows, splash 4 conq seals and he is dead in 1-2mins

I played 51 hours and I'm only level 35. I must be playing this wrong. Explains why I'm actually bored out of my mind with this... nice running simulator with a shit story to "not" keep you invested.
And the equipment slowly starts to look ridiculous... japanese ridiculous.. which doesn't help with immersion. Besides all the hell(s)pawns out of japanese loli hell running around in the world and other abominations.
Allways hoping for the next big monster to show up is quite the gamble.

Are you using the eternal ferrystone?
Are you using the portcrystals? (did u place them somewhere?)
There is a mod on nexusmods that gives u infinite stamina for running(made me love the game so much more)

I agree. For me this game is the first very postive surprise this year, I did not have this on my radar.
Sure, there are lots of generic quest and a bit too much running around for my taste, but I love the attention to details in this game, the different look of all the armor and weapons, the very detailed character creation, the use of the lantern and the effects of day/night, and the fighting and the character system, of course. First I thought to make it possible switching your "career" completely is a bad idea, but now I think its great - it saves the game from getting too repetitive and boring. After every find of a good new item, weapon or armor not fitting to your actual class you can return to the tavern, change class and test the new gear at once. Also the use of different passive skills from other classes is a nice motivation bonus to try out mixed builds. I am "only" lev. 51 and did kill the first dragon two days ago making my bow "dragon-forged", but still I frequently switch between using bow/one-handed weapons/two-handed weapons/dagger and so on - and its fun. My favorite is the Assassin class until now. Farming the dungeon on the Finstergram-island brings up new gear when I am not in the mood continuing the main quest.
If this were a game by Bethesda I am sure these comfort functions like having all items in access from the tavern or the smith or sending items to the camp would not be included and had to be added by user mods....

this game is like a weird girlfriend. its quirky and hard to understand. it puts you through terrible things that you never thought you would survive, but when you do (and you always can find a way), it just strengthens your bond. your love grows stronger as you grow stronger as a result of the hardship shes inflicts upon you.

After 95 hours I think I'm finally done. Bitterblack Island 2.0 is now mostly a steamroll and I basically farm chest drops for random stuff I won't use. I'm level 132 and don't see myself grinding to 200. Maybe I will, I dunno, but I feel like it's time for a break.
The best parts of the game for me are long journeys to do quests where you are fighting your way there, getting ambushed by stuff, etc. It feels like a real adventure, I can't remember any other game that gave me that sense. It feels like you are in the fellowship of the ring or something. The dungeons were excellent too, BBI and Everlong, reminded me of Diablo style dungeon crawling.

http://www.mcvuk.com/news/read/dragon-s-dogma-dark-arisen-is-capcom-s-fastest-selling-pc-game/0162379
| Quote: | The PC version of RPG Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen is Capcom’s fast-selling game for the platform thus far.
The title – which debuted on January 15th on Steam – is also one of the publisher’s Top Three best-selling PC releases.
Dark Arisen is an enhanced version of 2012’s Dragon’s Dogma, which launched for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 back in 2013.
Capcom does note that though Dark Arisen is its fast-selling PC title so far, the initial sales of the console versions were higher as they benefited from a full marketing push pre-launch.
“We are extremely pleased with the performance of Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen. It is our fastest-selling PC title to date, thanks to an audience eagerly waiting for it, and us delivering to the level of quality gamers were expecting,” marketing director Antoine Molant told MCV.
“Based on a similar sales period, Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen is in the Capcom's Top Three PC releases after these few weeks, along with Resident Evil and Dead Rising 3.” |

It was super weird they took so long to decide to do it.
TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"

Try playig as Magick Archer if it's too hard. It's Richochet skill makes fast work of most enemies. Also ranged classes sadly seem to be much more useful in this game.

Probably the worst are those horrible pawn lines written by Captain Obvious himself, like:
"Wolves fear fire!"
"Be careful not to be drenched in water"
"Tis dark during the night"
"We share this road with peddlers and other travellers"
"The sea is much closer than it looks"
Once you hear them for the hundredth time in an hour, you will feel the urge to unscrew your head from your neck.
