How to earn gold in Dragon's Dogma 2
You can earn money in several ways: progressing through the story and completing quests, exploring the open world, fighting enemies and interacting with NPCs.
Complete quests
Quests are one of the main sources of income in the game. Story missions, which must be completed to advance through the story, reward the Risen with a large amount of gold, but often require a lot of time to complete. If you have a goal to earn extra money - pay attention to side quests, some of them are completed extremely quickly, and some can be completed in parallel with the plot ones, for example, collecting items or killing enemies. Side quests require less effort, and the rewards for them are sometimes even better than for the main quests.
Find in the open world
You can also get gold during peaceful exploration of the open world, without completing tasks or entering into conflicts. Sometimes money can be found in boxes, crates and other breakable objects.
Bags of gold
When exploring locations, look around. Often on various tables, shelves or some hard-to-reach, remote places you will be able to find bags of gold. They flicker and light up, making them extremely easy to spot. By collecting items, you will receive a decent amount of local currency.
Treasure chests
Treasure chests come in several types: some resemble large wooden boxes, others look like full-fledged metal treasuries - the rewards in them are usually much more valuable. By opening any caskets you can get a lot of gold. Typically, chests can be found in houses, towers, hiding places in rough terrain, caves and other places where you need to look. Sometimes they are located in hard-to-reach locations: on hills where only magicians can climb, or in locked rooms that require breaking a bolt to open.
Some chests contain random loot, while others contain guaranteed loot. The location of the box also logically affects the contents: in the official’s bedroom there will most likely be money, and in the kitchen or basement there will most likely be vegetables or some utensils.
Loot enemy bodies
After finishing fighting with opponents, be sure to loot their bodies. At a minimum, you will find resources that you can use or, more importantly, sell. As a maximum, you will get some gold. Due to the abundance of monsters encountered along the way, this method will allow you to collect considerable capital.

Help NPCs
While exploring the world, you can meet NPCs in trouble. They are marked on the map with a yellow quadrangle. If you help a traveler and deal with all the monsters, you will receive a reward, sometimes in the form of money. In addition, you can loot the bodies of enemies, receiving additional items from them.
Sell items
A great way to make money when returning from a trip to a settlement is to sell all kinds of items to merchants. This can include things that are no longer needed by the Risen or pawns, for example, weapons or armor, as well as found items: obtained from chests, picked up from the bodies of enemies, found in the open world. In addition, selling things will relieve the character.
The most profitable items for sale
The best items to sell are all kinds of valuables, unnecessary pieces of equipment and materials that are not useful for improving the equipment used:
| Subject | Price |
| Serrated bone | 42 |
| Skin of the Beast | 42 |
| Goblin Horn | 60 |
| Onyx | 800 |
| Jasper | 800 |
| Tiger's eye | 900 |

Jadeite Sphere - an item that the Risen must find as part of a secondary quest "The Hunt for the Jadeite Sphere". After talking with various NPCs in Vernworth, you will go to the Border Town, where you can buy the item from Ibrahim in the Hardware Shop for 7 gold.
Next you have to make a choice: give the item to the thief Ophaly and go into the red, receiving in return a backpack and 3 gold, return the relic to the knight Everard and get 12 gold, or create a fake and get both rewards.
