How to Get Augments

Earn DCP to Increase Vocation Rank

The DCP needed for the next vocation is seen under the current unlocked rank at the Vocation Guild.

Augments are unlocked for purchase by earning Discipline Points (DCP) from completing activities such as defeating monsters, finishing main and side quests, or other exploration-related activities with the equipped vocation.

It is best to play different vocations to unlock augments since you can equip these to any vocation, allowing for a mix-and-match of beneficial effects. Augments must be purchased first with Discipline Points before you can equip them.

How to Change Vocations

What are Augments?

Permanent Buffs to Aid Combat and Exploration

Augments serve as permanent buffs that can either increase stats, improve combat performance, or add more utility via new effects so as long as they are equipped.

You can only have up to 6 augments equipped at a time, so plan which Augments to use for you and your Pawn since you can only change them at a Vocation Guild.

Mix and Match Augment Effects

Mettle comes from the Fighter Vocation while Subtley comes from Thief.

Augments are highly beneficial since you can equip them to any vocation. For example, the Fighter's Thew Augment is generally alright to equip in most vocations since they increase additional weight.

Likewise, Thief's Verve beneficial to even more straightforward combat vocations such as the Fighter class.
