Guide to completing the Shepherd of the Pawns quest in Dragon's Dogma 2's Unmoored World. Find the Overseer's Godsway and free the pawns.
This quest, Shepherd of the Pawns, becomes available once you reach the Excavation Site, located southeast of the Volcanic Island Camp. You can't teleport directly here unless you'd already placed a Portcrystal, so you'll need to fast travel to the Agamen Volcanic Island Portcrystal. From there, follow the broken paths east past the Volcanic Island Camp and then southeast to reach the Excavation Site, also known as the Agamen Ruins. Be aware that many roads and bridges are destroyed in this version of the world, so your route might differ from the main game. If you pass through the Volcanic Island Camp, it's a good idea to tackle "The Importance of Aiding Ernesto" quest there first, as you're already going that way. Upon arriving at the Agamen Ruins, you'll find Henrique fighting a Golem. You'll need to help him defeat it. This fight is similar to a standard Golem encounter, just with higher stats. Focus your attacks on its glowing weak points to bring it down.
- 1After defeating the Golem, Henrique will explain that the pawns refuse to evacuate and are still under the Overseer's command. He'll ask you to follow him to the Gaol in the west of the settlement to learn more.
- 2Inside the Gaol, a pawn will reveal that they're bound by the Overseer's command through an artifact called the Godsway. Henrique will then give you the Overseers’ Lodge Key, which unlocks any door within the settlement.
- 3Leave the Gaol and head back to the main part of the settlement, near the Riftstone and Inn. Unlock the door to the house directly opposite the Agamen Ruins Inn.
- 4Inside, you'll find the Overseer's body near the entrance, with the Diminished Godsway lying next to them. Pick up the artifact.
- 5Return to Henrique in the Gaol and speak with him. Give him the Godsway.
- 6Once you hand over the Godsway, the pawns will be freed and able to leave, completing the quest and leading to the evacuation of another town.
- The Golem battle at the Agamen Ruins is a standard Golem fight; aim for its glowing weak spots.
- The Overseer's Lodge Key can open any locked door in the settlement, so keep that in mind if you need to access other areas.
