Just like any other good open world RPG, Dragon’s Dogma 2 has a lot of collectible items that the player can collect and keep in his or her bag. Some are for crafting while others are for enhancing equipment and there are those that heal or recover stamina. Some are not all about their use rather it is how much they go for when sold to make some money. It is because gold is needed to buy new equipment and an Arisen will need this gold to establish their rule.
There’s no obvious use for these precious stones such as Jasper, Onyx, and Tiger Eye at first glance. Nonetheless, you may sell them at a high price because they aren’t common in Dragon's Dogma thus making them more valuable. Besides, players can store those things in the former’s Storage Chest if they do not want them congesting inventory space since these materials don’t take up much weight.
The Uses of Jasper, Onyx And Tiger Eye
These precious gemstones are valuable and are commonly found when undertaking quests. Such gems will be dropped by certain enemies but the rate at which they may appear is very low. To illustrate, Onyx has a 1 – 5% drop rate on goblins (depending on types). Even the item description for Onyx admits that it is “rarely seen in Vermund,” which explains why it costs so much.
Normally, these precious stones are not sold by an Arisen, but they can be given as gifts to NPCs instead. For example, if a player gives one of the three gemstones to an NPC who likes them, he will gain 50 Favor with him/her. An Arisen can also improve his/her Affinity by raising Favor with an NPC because this can lead to shop prices dropping along with new quests unlocking or even freebies from an NPC back to the Player. While these items can’t be used elsewhere as presents, this is an advisable move.
A Storage Chest may be obtained at any inn or player’s house and this feature may prove especially useful considering that there are limits on weight capacity for Arisen. In addition, pawns’ items can also be stored into such a chest thus it’s better using storage chests for keeping things you think might come in handy later on.
Selling Precious Gems Requires Geography
If a player chooses to sell Jasper, Onyx and Tiger Eye, it should be understood that the place these stones are sold is very important. If there’s one of these types of gemstones that is rare in a certain area, then it means that it will fetch an expensive price in that locality. In order to do this, considerable travel will be required; therefore, hoarding these gems for maximum profit upon greater exposure to the rest of the world would be advisable.
Onyx is most scarce at Vermund which is Dragon's Dogma 2’s starting location and thus selling them there will give the largest profits. To achieve this offloading Tiger Eye in places like the hidden Elven lands would prove difficult though because one can’t decipher elven.
Finally enough jasper cannot be found in Battahl so go sell it there. In any case, all of these stones can be exchanged for some gold but since Dragon's Dogma 2’s world map is bigger and has a fast traveling system players will always find themselves spending gold on it. Consequently, maximizing earnings improves gameplay.
Ferrystones cost around 10k each from specific vendors and they are useful while moving quickly. When money becomes an issue, Ox Carts could also work. The journey might just turn out to be short if the Arisen decides to sleep
Should These Precious Gems Be Sold?
The choice of whether to sell the gems is entirely at the discretion of a player. Gold can be made in other ways, and though rare, they could be farmed when necessary. The number that an Arisen can get is theoretically infinite due to
being dropped by certain monsters; therefore this decision isn’t even close to being the most important one in the game, especially since some quests have time limits. It takes a long time to grind these stones because of their low drop rate.
Alternatively, there exists a variety of other methods which raise NPCs' affinity. If they are major characters, they will generally have side quests that are more effective than giving them gemstones for Favor. On balance, it is better to consider what suits the person at that particular moment. If an Arisen needs gold and is able to move from place to place he/she should just sell the gems. For instance, if someone wants romantic relationships with some NPC, then keeping these gemstones could be useful while enhancing Affinity.
