Follow this guide to complete the Masked Correspondence quest in Dragon's Dogma 2. Find Lord Patrick at the Vernworth Castle masquerade and deliver Sven's letter.
Alright, let's get this Masked Correspondence quest sorted out in Dragon's Dogma 2. It's one of those quests that's easy to miss if you're not paying attention, so stick with me and we'll nail it.
Walkthrough
- 1First things first, you need to get yourself to the masquerade. This is held in a small outbuilding on the southern side of Vernworth Castle's grounds. The key here is timing: you need to arrive around Dusk. You'll know a masquerade is happening when you see musicians and other guests dressed up in fancy outfits and masks.
- 2Now, this is crucial: you absolutely must be wearing the Courtly Outfit, Courtly Leggings, and a Masquerade Mask. If you don't have these, you won't be able to get into the ballroom. You should have gotten these pieces during the 'Stolen Throne' main quest when you were trying to get into the ballroom there. Make sure you've got them equipped!
- 3Once you're all decked out in your fancy gear, head into the ballroom. Your main objective here is to find a specific NPC named Lord Patrick and hand him the letter that Sven gave you. Don't just give it to any random noble; you're looking for a man with a blue cape, brown vestments, a mask, and a no-neck mane attire. He's not hard to spot once you know what to look for.
- 4After you've successfully handed over the letter to Lord Patrick, your next step is to head back to Sven. He's waiting for you back at the castle.
- 5Here's a little tip for returning to Sven: to avoid drawing any unwanted attention from the guards, it's a good idea to wear the Marcher's Helmet, Marcher's Armour, and Marcher's Leggings. This is the same armor set you likely used during 'The Caged Magistrate' questline. It helps you blend in.
- 6Once you reach Sven, hand in the quest. You'll be rewarded with 6000 G and 1x Onyx (which is worth a decent 2800 G in Vernworth).
And that's it! You've completed the Masked Correspondence quest. It's pretty straightforward, but it's easy to mess up if you don't have the right gear or don't find the correct NPC.
