How to find DLC quests in Dragon's Dogma.

People have been messaging me with this question.

Here we go.

DLC quests can be found in Gran Soren.

Instead of the Inn; make your way to the Pawn Guild. Next to the entrance to the Everfall (Which is located within the Pawn Guild) There is a quest board. This board is used exclusively with DLC quests, but I guess people just forget about it. After all; it serves no other purpose.

How to find the Griffin in Dragon's Dogma.

The Griffin is first encountered by the player in a real-time event in which a caravan is being attacked by Goblins outside of Gran Soren; the Griffin swoops down, and catches the player off guard.

After that, the Griffin remains highly elusive to the player. Encounters are minimal, and even then it is not guaranteed that the player will fell the beast. Thus, it is highly likely that the Griffin will ignore you, and leave the area.

This monster can be fought in the main storyline quest. However, it is not recommended that you rush the questline; so that you may fight this monster alone. Instead; we will find a Griffin on the world map.

The Griffin is often spotted in the following areas:

Eradication Site
Estan Plains
Northface Forest
Moonshower Cliffs

















One way to encounter the Griffin is to leave Gran Soren, and start on the right path. You will know if the Griffin will be in the area if the you see a bandit archer atop the ruins of the former Gran Soren wall. Continue along the path, and you should see some more bandits making use of Ruins. They will rush you. Fight them, and create a spectacle; by now if the Griffin is within the area one of your pawns should announce something along these lines 'A grifffin!' Keep an eye on the skies, and pay close attention to where
the Griffin actually lands.

One area in which the Griffin will always spawn is the Eradication Site. (Look at the map for location; it's to the west of Aernst Castle) Make sure you leave for this area at dawn; as the Griffin will leave if night falls. Once you are within reach of the Eradication Site make sure to save. This is important, because you're encounter with the Griffin will probably not go as you initially planned.

A little to the south of the  Eradication Site are a few Goblins on the beach area. Go there, and start to fight them. Leave some of them to call in reinforcements. Run around the area, and your pawns should announce the Griffins arrival. Chances are it will not go after you, but some other creature in the area. You MUST run up to it, and try to scale it.

The creature can not leave so long as someone has a hold of it.

Another tactic I use at the Eradication site is to kill an enemy, and hold their corpse while standing perfectly still. This should trigger the Griffin to make it's initial descent.

What you do now is up to you.

Dragon's Dogma needs worthwhile DLC content.

Enough of the fetch quests.

The following is downloadable content that should be added, but probably won't.

1) New boss monsters.

2) Upgraded versions of current monsters. Once you reach a certain point in the game; 99% of boss monsters/ enemies pose little or no threat.

3) An arena. Players can choose to fight any given Boss monsters that can not be found anywhere else.

4) New areas on the world map.

Dragon's Dogma: Everfall Mini Guide

Within the Everfall; there are a series of ledges that can be grabbed onto.

Note: The first chamber you will encounter is the Chamber of Confusion. You must defeat the
Evil Eye to be given access to all of the Chambers.

These ledges lead to Chambers, and are home to the most challenging boss
fights in the entire game.

Listed below are the ledges, and yes they are in descending order. (You can count while falling)


The first ledge does not lead to a chamber. Instead it leads to the
surface. (Gran Soren) With that said; it will not count as a
'chamber ledge' etc. This post will likely be updated.


1st Ledge: Anxiety: Wight

2nd Ledge: Absence: Geo Saurians

3rd Ledge: Hesitation: Suarian Sages, Arch Hydra

4th Ledge: Apprehension: Two Cockatrice Simultaneous

How to find the Metal Golem in Dragon's Dogma.



If you're reading this; chances are you're asking where to find this elusive monster. Defeating two of these powered up Golem's is necessary to complete a quest. There is a problem however.


Fighting the Metal Golem on the surface world requires that you complete 'Witch hunt' this quest is easily missed; as quests are removed as you progress through the main storyline quests. The window of opportunity is very small. (Prior to fighting the Hydra at the encampment)

You've likely never received this quest.

There is one other place in which you can fight the Metal Golem.

Warning: Read on if you have defeated the Dragon by your own means.

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



 After a series of cut scenes; you will be granted access into the Everfall.

There are a series of ledges that appear once falling, and you can push the right trigger to grab onto one.

Each ledge leads to a door; These doors feature a name. Example: Chamber of Sorrow.

The chamber that you need to find is the Chamber of Estrangement. This chamber may contain a Metal Golem, but it may contain a regular Golem. If you didn't find the Metal version, you can leave the everfall, sleep a few days, and return to chamber to try once more.

This is the only way to fight a Metal Golem if you didn't have the chance to sign up for the 'Witch Hunt' quest at the Quest Board.

Dragon's Dogma worthwhile DLC
