Duplicating items to make forgeries was a staple feature of the firstDragon’s Dogma, and it made a return inDragon’s Dogma 2as well. The system allows players to make fake copies of real items and use the fakes to dupe NPCs in various ways. Some NPCs are smarter than others and catch on quickly if they’re handed a forgery. Figuring who to give which version of an item is part of the fun.
Players interested in the forgery system will want to know who to talk to and which items are worth making duplicates of. Here’s everything you need to know.
Forgery Shop Location
The Forgery Shop, Ibrahim’s Scrap Store, can be found in Checkpoint Rest Town, at the border of Vermund andBattahl.You’ll find the Scrap Store in the western section of town, just past theVocation Guildand Weapons Shop anddown the slope to the right. The fastest route to Checkpoint Rest Town is by usingwestern Oxcart in Vernworth for 200 Gold. Or, if you’re in Battahl, you can take the Bakbattahl Oxcart (also for 200 Gold).
How To Duplicate Items
Best Items To Duplicate
Duplicate items don’t retain the intrinsic abilities of the originals. This means a forgery of a Ferrystone (Ferristone) will not let youfast-travel, and a fakePortcrysal(Partcrystal) won’t work either. Items whose value lies in what they can do instead of what they are are useless as forgeries. Considering this, here are all the ways this system can be used.
Items duplicated during theSphinx’s Riddle of Madnesstrial can do everything the original can do.
Quest Items
Some side quests in Dragon’s Dogma 2 involve quest items that need to be given to a certain NPC. In some cases, more than one person is willing to offer a reward for the same item. Making a forgery of the quest item and offering a fake to one party and the real one to the other can allow players to rake in all possible quest rewards. Here are some examples.
Consumables/Enhancement Materials
Most items cannot be used like the original once they’re duplicated. The exception to this rule isConsumablesandmaterials. Duplicating anAllheal Elixirwill give you an additional fully functional, ready-to-drink Allheal Elixir. And if you’re just short of a singleWhitecobbletoupgrade a weapon or armor piece, a duplicate Whitecobble works just as well as the real deal.
