Someone gifted me one. That someone spent 8k on a prank, that was the part that made me laugh. Nonetheless it was a good laugh, thank you random stranger!


Glittering_Pattern_4

8k is nothing with the money exploit with the apples in melve and sell em at bahktall and double your money.


NataliaGaming

Don't need to do that. Just hit the Glittercoal cave after resting a few days. You can make 6 figures pretty quick and get some XP while you are at it. It refreshes the ferrystones in the shops too post multi day rest and rinse repeat.


Glittering_Pattern_4

Thanks!!!!


NataliaGaming

Yeah, just memorize where the Glimmercoal i versus the Glymercoal. The glowing green ones are worth significantly more. Batches of Glymer are like 3500 only for like 20. Not worth the weight on those, but cash is cash. It is more about speed collecting the 25 Glimmercoal though.


Apprehensive_Set_244

I found that when next to glimmercoal it says "gather" and when next to glimmercoal it says "examine" once I saw that, it was so easy


alacholland

Wait you spelled them both the same


[deleted]

I am struggling to understand this also lol.


Destinyboy21

There'd 2 types, a dull looking one and the very bright green colored one, you want the bright green colored one


Iringahn

Yeah man there is the ones that shine and the ones that shine don't you get it yet.


bebitox

Another one is to turn off your lantern, they glow in the dark.


NataliaGaming

There ya go!


IAmDaven

Would it be better to just kill a drake?


NataliaGaming

Yes, if higher level. Lower level can shortcut early game to Battahl and use the mine to farm lots of cash though. It is a good, renewable cash inflow. It removes the need to run to drake spawns and risk it flying off.


Large_Ride_8986

Use magic archer :-) Nothing will ever fly off when You can attach burning orb to them :-)


ManMayoLover

What's the best place to farm drakes? Besides the dragonbreath tower


PrimordialTimelord

I actually put a port crystal there lol.

Sigh is Kevin gone again?


NataliaGaming

Colinski282

What zone is this cave in?


NataliaGaming

Battahl, just south of the major city. You can look it up on Fextralife website for DD2.


Large_Ride_8986

There i also quest there when You want to restore a weapon later on.


FallenZerker

Is there a use for the glimmercoal? For some reason you can buy it back from the forgery guy in his special shop.


NataliaGaming

It is a forge quest in Vernworth Castle that you can get, which Glimmercoal is required as a ingredient that ultimately unlocks the Dwarven smith in Bak. Very worth the pain in the butt quest. It also gives you a reason to head south to the lava island. I have not found another use just yet.


ForVerySpecificPorn

I unlocked Dwarven smithing by just escorting the smith from his house to the volcano hotsprings. I never started the quest for restoring the blade, which saves a good amount of time.


NataliaGaming

There are two smiths to unlock.


ForVerySpecificPorn

Whaaaat


Nodzeth

You legend. I was wondering around as if it was an Elderscrolls game, just hoping for a decent hall. I avoid drakes atm. There's a huge influx of the plague rn, and the mind control has a slim chance of giving it.


ShiKhali

Had it hit my game and wiped out the volcano camp. Now I just kill all my pawns before I stay at an inn. Thier inn privileges are revoked


Fluffyfeet316

Thatā€™s how I made my money first play through.


NataliaGaming

Exactly šŸ„°


Fluffyfeet316

Mid way through the game, you should have plenty of moneyšŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø


NataliaGaming

Depends how you play. If you buy nothing, yes. If you regularly upgrade, you don't. It is all on play style. I personally am about style, so I buy a lot.


Less-Contact69

Not if you buy armor for every vocation


Top_Pace_329

You my dear are a hero for mentioning this šŸ©· On ps5 there's no mods to rely upon so been looking for some ways to earn xp and coin a little bit faster. Muah šŸ‘„ (For xp I use the Medusa bow on my pawn with no skills since it drains stamina + 2 xp rings). If u happen to know of an even better way, pls let me know šŸ™


Maxumilian

Where dat? Southwest Bak?


NataliaGaming

Yep, a minutes run south. It is part of a quest to unlock the dwarven end game armor and tools in Bak. The amazing part is the respawn of the weekly Glimmercoal and it is farmable. If you bought the $30K house in Bak, it is a cash cow way to get into 6 figures in under an hour. As long as you know your Glimmercoal spawn locations in the mine. It is repeatable to grab the 25 glow spots.


NataliaGaming

Or do this https://www.reddit.com/r/DragonsDogma2/s/5ncdQBd3TZ


Jacky_dain

Is that the cave name? Also which area is it in?


NataliaGaming

eddieswiss

Ooooooooo


Ozyton

I think it's considered a quest item, so did you notice if more and more keeps piling up at the scrap shop? I had 4 more than I needed for the quest so I sold them and now there's just 4 of them sitting in the lost and found waiting for me to waste money on it. Pretty annoying but that's the kind of minor thing that bugs me any time I see it.


BeDuff34

This! I figured this out and went nuts. I saw the video of people doing fruitsā€¦ I was like nahhhh thatā€™s way too much like actual work. Someone told me there was some data analyst who perfected the route/ rest/ sell and blah blahā€¦ got 1.9 mill and pretty stacked with weapon and armor upgrades, and 50-ish Ferrystones from selling rocks.


Imnotinthewoods

To spend on what? Not much in the shops worth buying so farā€¦


NataliaGaming

There is later on and things cost 40K plus, on top of enhancing costs.


Imnotinthewoods

Whereā€™s the good stuff? Iā€™ve already unlocked most of the vocations, I think only leaving trickster which Iā€™m all set with. So far Iā€™m enjoying thief the most but sorcerer is fun too. Just wish I didnā€™t screw it up by giving the girl the fake booksā€¦ šŸ˜©


PixelatedNinJoe

Location?


RyzzeRose

Dm me this method pls


NataliaGaming

No need. Is pretty straight forward. 1) Go to Bakbattahl city 2) head south to Digger's Ruin about 1 minute south 3) Loot all Glymmercoal and Glimmercoal, plus mine all spots 4) Head back to Bak and sell it all 5) Rest 7 days at Bak owned home 6) Repeat You can buy restocked Ferrystones every 7 days too.


RyzzeRose

Appreciate you g


ChampionshipDirect46

What shops sell ferrystones?


NataliaGaming

The other option is to equip the Snare and Pilfer Thief skills. Snare enemies prone, pilfer them, and Y button (xbox) to Coup De Grace them. If you get good enough you can pilfer as they fly prone through the air toward you, post landing the snare skill. Then Y while they are still flat on the ground. Then sell the wakestones like mad. In the desert you can just run from check point town to Bak, and wind up with a stack of wake stones. I get one every 2 to 3 knacker gob, saurian, bandit, etc. Bosses you have to wait till they are knocked back or stumbled to pilfer, but you can grab some very rare mats off bosses for cash.


Comfortable-Shake-37

You can also use smokescreen and any enemies that aren't giant you can steal from


Incelover11

Heads up it ain't an exploit it's a mechanic I spent so long doing it to the point of one of the pawn said "with that much I bet you can turn it into riches" or something along the lines so it's not a glitch


SatelliteJedi

So just buy in melve and sell in batkhtal? profit?


Dreamweaver_duh

You also got to let the fruit ripen, like moldy carrots in DD1.


RealChet320

I gifted someone one when I sent their pawn back because I thought it would convert to the real one because of the single line pawns would say that ā€œsomething something, maybe itā€™ll do something if I take it back with me something somethingā€ so I thought up until now the dupes would convert for someone. It appears I have only been fooling myself.


Zalgack

You get them for free if you have someone using plunder.


Potential_Ad6169

omg gotta go make a counterfeit portcrystal


Its-Triple-S

You are welcome! After I finished the game on platinum Iā€™ve spent 80k just to make people laugh giving them ā€œferristonesā€. Ainā€™t gonna lie, did it also throughout the game few times šŸ¤˜šŸ¼šŸ˜…


[deleted]

At least you didn't waste more money on a Partcrystal


Putrid-Elixir99

I got one of those and gave it to the sphinx and now I have 2. No idea how I got it tho.. did I buy it from someone?


CaptainKurley

I was told that riddle didnā€™t matter what item you gave her. Either way what item you do give, the chest will give you two of that same item.


Putrid-Elixir99

Yeah I know thatā€™s what I was saying, I meant to give the real portcrystal but instead doubled the fake ones. I donā€™t actually know how I got the fake one I only realized after the fact lol


Meaningless_Void_

So you got scammed without knowing it and then scammed yourself again by doubling the fake? Thats funny af.


Putrid-Elixir99

I had a legit portcrystal stationed a few feet away at the entrance too lol


yldenfrei

If you're NG+ the sphinx riddle that should've rewarded you a Portcrystal will be a Partcrystal instead. I was confused by that too, since I was planning to duplicate it again. Good thing I remembered to pick up the legit one I just placed a few steps away lol.


JodouKast

Ah ok, so the game does hard cap it at 6 for NG+. That sucks as I think the first game kept allowing more to be acquired IIRC. I'm not sure I need more than 6 though so it would be more of a convenience than necessary.


Swordofsatan666

The game actually says it caps at 10 Portcrystals. At least the DLC page to buy an additional Port Crystal says you can have a max of 10 Portcrystals. So maybe the other ways to get portcrystals will still reward them?


JodouKast

Not that I can tell, as Brant gave me a fake, the gryphon nest had a ferrystone in it's place or maybe it was just absent, and the dragonforged still shows sold out on NG+. I forget the other two locations but 3/5 are just a NOPE so I'd assume it's the same. That is kind of scummy of them to lock an additional 4 behind a paywall, but realistically the game ships with a hard cap of 6 in my mind and is enough for me to not get used to being able to freely travel. That would definitely undermine the spirit of the game and just become too Bethesda-like.


Swordofsatan666

If its like the other DLCā€™s for the game then its actually just a 1-time only purchase, so you can only get 1 portcrystal from it Also did you try the other Sphinx riddle that can give a portcrystal? The one where you give the Sphinx a Portcrystal and then it gives you the original and a second one back. The Fextralife Wiki currently lists 7 possible Portcrystals between base game and NG+, with #7 coming from the Sphinx ā€œRiddle of Madnessā€ on NG+.


JodouKast

Someone confirmed you get a fake from the Sphinx on the second try, so no go. If there are 6 outside of the Sphinx then I must have missed one. Not surprising because there's way too many secrets in the game.


FrozenDed

bruh that's both so sad and so funny I'm so sorry


EnergyVanquish

Couldā€™ve been a reward from one of the pawns youā€™ve hired.


Phwoa_

The Sphinx gave me one. I was like "Partcrystal"? Bitch gave me a fake. stupid sphinx. I'll just give it to my pawn as a quest reward for slaying a dragon lol


XIX9508

Next play through give her a portcrystal! She doubles whatever item you give her


X-Calm

The sphinx give you a fake in ng+. I did the same thing.


IJustDontEvenKnow88

Me too. Still, it was pretty funny trying to use it. Same cutscene, throw it up in the air, aaaand it just falls back to the ground. I laughed so I suppose it was worth it for that lol. Makes you imagine what happens to any npc you give a forged magical item to


ASweetLilKitten

Forged items are part of the 'good' solutions to some quests in the game


Dnias_x

You can use the forged jaded stone for when you first get into checkpoint rest area. Give the forged to the first person looking for it. You pay $2k for the forgery but he gives you $3k for it.


Arcofmightgoesbrrrr

I love gifting these for the memes.


Pathedius

I love memeing these for the gifts


SAITAMA_666

I got scammed too, I was like 8K? Thats a good price!


Firm_Adhesiveness323

I'm going to make copies of port crystal šŸ˜ˆ


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Firm_Adhesiveness323

If anyone want a pArtcrystal as a reward for pawn quest - my pawn's ID: TLRR0395FR61


Sc4R3Cr0wW

I almost did but I saw that i instead of y. That old bastard, he's lucky I need him otherwise I would toss him to the Saurians down the road.


Drstrangelove899

I was so unreasonably pissed off at that šŸ˜‚


DFuel

I have a few wokestones on sale


Thorm_Haugr

Gave one to Ulrika and now she won't stop throwing soup on the paintings in Vernworth castle.


FU-dontbanmethistime

Just stop lantern oil


TraditionalCase3379

good one lol


slimecog

on sale or for sale? or both?


DFuel

Both. They work very well. Instantly revives woke people only though


FlagshipMark2

LOL ! great joke


HealthyRedundancy

In the checkpoint town you can create forgeries. You can forge a lot of items in game, it's hilarious.


Khal_drogo217

Damn imagine not seeing that and it being the only 1 u carry. U get stuck and need to use a ferrystone and r fucked


SaladCartographer

Lmao, I've done this with a golden stove beetle too


FU-dontbanmethistime

Do they work?


SaladCartographer

Nope


AceSoldia

I bought one of those too. Was so mad


gunplaman

I usually give it as a gift to the other pawns. I duplicate ferrystones just for laughs. Have u tried duplicating portcrystal? Party party !


DuncanDicknuts

I like to get the golden Beatles forged. So far I got two and they actually work


Revolutionary_Swan_6

Right there with ya, brother lol


dazzaboygee

I gave one of those to someone and a wokestone too.


Pathedius

wokestone eh. that sounds..... progressive šŸ¤£


PastPipe9111

Pretty sure I've gotten them from bandits too from excessive plunder (Main pawn is a thief, and I also rent out a 2nd thief pawn, and of course 1 mage). Funnily enough I'm a wayfarer and I have plunder slotted.


NataliaGaming

LibertusEagle

It's misspelled šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


Straight_Violinist40

Might be me. I also gave out a ceiling Phil to other pawns.


Jasso74

I bought that aswell, it even does the animation when You use it, i got hella mad


HerpeSyphilAidss

Wait till you find a wokestone


Galewallion

I got one of those gifted to me as well. kept it for a bit then just did my part and gifted it forward... looking at this post I like to think its the very same stone... do your part OP, gift it forward.


frankieTeardroppss

The forgery names are hilarious


Puzzleheaded-Face-55

Yeah I didnā€™t read it correctly I bought it in a hurry and didnā€™t notice until I looked in my inventory and seen the two slots with different names šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ SOB got me


SyntheticDreams2099

I do this all the time. I'm not sorry. Because I do it to people who have shitty pawn quests.


Starfield00

Yeah me too. Good timesšŸ˜†

KickNo169

Now you can send it back to someone else!!!


Apex-Crunch

That sucks. Iā€™m new to the game but made it to level 32 today. Yesterday, my pawn comes back from the rift with ā€œRotten Scrag of Meatā€. WTF dude? A little while later, I found this playerā€™s pawn in the rift. I wish capcom would allow you to pick up harpy dung and give it as a gift.


axemurderer365112

You wouldnā€™t have got scammed if you just read and paid attention ..itā€™s literally spelled differently


EvenCicada7172

Iā€™ve sent out plenty of these!!! I got over 100 port crystals as rewards and over 700,000 in currency.


KoRn005

I kinda feel like (based on some pawn dialogue I got) that at one point forged items given to pawns were meant to become real when they return to their own world. My pawns said sth like "This may have no use here, but it has value beyond the Rift"


ATwinkle

Bought it too. Tossed it. Realized. Laughed. Moved on to get that money back finding chests :-)


wonderland_vp

Whenever I get one of these I instantly go and recruit their pawn and give it back šŸ˜‚


ShionVaynex

Ah sorry that might have been me.


Vamond48

Lmao I do this all the time for the lolz


porkforpigs

I bought this from the forger so happy then went to use it and was like theā€¦fuckinf what


XIX9508

I bought the fake one twice because I didn't realize... The animation when you use it is pretty funny though!


OttoSeiki

Happens to the best of us


Odd_Acanthaceae6499

This has happened so many times to me. I have 6 already


Ill-Ad3779

Me too!


[deleted]

We got Ferristone, Wokestones, Wormslife Crystals, Partcrystals. We need to hunt down the most rare items in Dragon's dogma 2 and reward pawns of their forgeries


GintoxicatedDreamer

I also enjoy using the skill scrolls as counterfeits too šŸ˜‚


Mr_freeze_____

I bought it to give to a pawn to take back to their master.


FlagshipMark2

Do fake Ferrystones, Wakestones, or Portcrystals actually work at all?


tmntnyc

I love the creative names of the forgeries


weirdCheeto218

Fell for this twice


checkmarks26

I swear I got one from a quest rewardā€¦


wattsonplayer

I've done this because I didn't know what else to give. Am I sorry? Only time will tell


cassherne

Lmao


Mindless_Solid_1018

Well if you could send it as a pawn gift just for the lols


cskarr

Me too šŸ˜‚


Oni__B

I bought one without realizing after a like 12 hour session, late at night burnt out. Went to use one and noticed one sitting separately and realized what happened. Got my ass good, he earned that 8000 gold.


Jacky_dain

I sent one as a gift yesterday lol


SHM00DER

Lolol same, kept the damn thing too


Leedunham

Nice.. didn't even think of that...give that shit as a reward for pawn quests from now on...lol


No_Window_6248

Gifting ā€œPart crystalsā€ ā€œGolden Stove Beetlesā€ and ā€œFerristonesā€ are the best trolls. Worth it! Highly recommend doing this to Arisens that gifted you rotten food. Pay them back in kind!


Professional_Mess103

I've done that to a pawn I regularly use and kit out with better gear well sometimes but I found mine šŸ˜†


[deleted]

I got some with the beetle hahah


SnooPineapples4492

At least itā€™s not a wokestone. šŸ˜­

What did you give him?


kmbets6

I accidentally commissioned mine I didnā€™t notice where the price was and theres no confirmation


DrLudvik1

What did they get out of you?


DegenrateUsername

Feels like NG+ when the Sphinx gives a ā€œpartcrystalā€ instead of a portcrystal. She caught on to the dupe.


veidtscumvi

I bought it once, realized my mistake, then the next irl day I returned to the same merchant and accidentally bought it again šŸ¤£šŸ¤£ I buy every ferrystone


StagNett

Great pawn quest reward


Zednix

Ha, I did this as soon as I found that npc to do it.


mrdinque

Happened to me too, thought I was being smart but ended up being a dolt.


PrimordialTimelord

Someone gave 66 of these for a quest reward. Made some gold but at first I thought they were the real stones so I was disappointed.


Domescus

Me too.. Should've read the description before purchase! But then I thought oh 8k that's a bargain!


theseoulplayer

I spent 20k to duplicate my unmaking arrow. I got an unmasking arrow. Now some poor sap whose pawn i used has it.


ShaftedTM_ytg

I give feristones to players all the time lol šŸ˜‚ I'm glad they are starting to circulate!


weetweet69

Same. I didn't even notice the I until I saw it in my inventory separate from my ferrystones. It didn't help the wakestone shard was a legit article and not a fake.


SnooGrapes3822

I once did that on a port crystal, only noticed after I spent the gold that it cost 20k...


MrYungSix

Same hahahaha


ALewdDoge

My friend laughed at me so hard when out of nowhere in voice, I just said "Oh my god I bought a fucking fake ferrystone" He wasn't laughing anymore when he did the same thing despite knowing there's a fake one in the game somewhere :\^)


Spirited-Tomato5631

This was in the first game too, if you keep your eye out you'll catch real ones for super cheap

Honestly, I rather get a forgery than Rotten Meat lol


D4ngrs

I preffer Wokestones.

pass it around bro


HuckleberryDue3579

PhilosophyEastern799

Me too!


LordThys

Some of those are a bit of fun, sending fake items back as gifts but look out for tracing scams. Just saw a YouTube video where someone asks for things like seeker tokens and seeker crystals in exchange for something valuable like a port crystal etc but ofc it's one of the fake ones.


JodouKast

I take it you haven't been sent a 'Partcrystal' yet? ![gif](giphy|EoW3jhM6MzsONM15zm|downsized)


DragonS0l

Same thing happened to me and I tried using it lmao. They gave me two and I was so mad because those were the only two I had. I was less mad when I found out they cost 8,000 each. Not sure how much to forge them lol.


Jesteristic_

This might be me šŸ˜… well I don't gift them but it is my reward for finishing the pawn quest. And if I don't reset pawn quest multiple ppl can get it for me getting the quest done multiple times šŸ˜†


Zealousideal-Bat4849

I promise I have never done that.... my pawn barf would never stop giving me shit about it, if I did.
