Learn how to get the Makeshift Vault Key and infiltrate the Vernworth Vault in Dragon's Dogma 2. Discover the best strategy to avoid guards and claim your rewards.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Find the Makeshift Vault Key: Locate the key in a black and gold chest within a side room of the tower at the Ancient Battleground. This room also contains the Nation’s Death Knell spell. Access the tower by climbing to the top and entering through a broken wall near the cliff. The Ancient Battleground can be reached from the south or east, passing the Sphinx and Mountain Shrine.
  2. 2
    Return to Vernworth Palace: Once you have the key, travel back to Vernworth Palace.
  3. 3
    Infiltrate the Vault: Wait until night when there are fewer guards. Approach the Vernworth Vault. The guard stationed there will prevent access if alerted.
  4. 4
    Neutralize the Guard: Equip an Archer or Magick Archer Vocation. From a distance, shoot the guard with your bow. It typically takes five to seven shots. The guard will not retaliate if attacked from afar.
  5. 5
    Conceal the Body: After defeating the guard, drag the body into an adjacent room and close the doors by pushing them. This prevents detection. If you trigger an alarm (indicated by sinister music), you can restart from your last checkpoint or Inn rest, or let yourself die.
  6. 6
    Loot the Vault: Open the four chests inside the vault.
Tips
  • Using ranged Vocations like Archer or Magick Archer is crucial for eliminating the guard without raising an alarm.
  • Performing this action at night significantly reduces the risk of being spotted by other guards.
  • If you are detected, restarting from a previous save is the safest option.
  • Ensure the guard's body is hidden to avoid further complications.
  • The loot is located as follows: 20,000 Gold is behind antiques on the left, and the other items are in chests around the room.
  • After looting, you can choose to leave the guard's body or revive them with a Wakestone.
  • 20,000 Gold
  • Decayed Medusa Head
  • Daughter of the Evening Shield
  • Wyrmhunter’s Cloak
