Complete Dragon's Dogma 2 Oxcart Courier walkthrough. Learn how to start the quest, escort the oxcart to Melve, and deliver the letter to Ser Lennart for rewards.

This quest, Oxcart Courier, is a straightforward delivery mission that mostly involves surviving the perilous journey back to Melve. You'll need to talk to Donovan near the North Vernworth Oxcart Station to get started. He'll ask you to deliver a letter to Ser Lennart in Melve and will even cover the 200G fare for the oxcart ride. The main challenge here isn't the delivery itself, but the random encounters with monsters along the way.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Start the Quest: Head to the North Vernworth Oxcart Station, located near the city's northeastern gate. Speak with Donovan. He'll task you with delivering a letter to Ser Lennart in Melve and will pay for your oxcart fare (200G).
  2. 2
    Escort the Oxcart to Melve: Make your way to the North Vernworth Oxcart Station. Use the bell to summon an oxcart (ensure it's daytime). Pay the driver, board the oxcart, and choose to doze off to begin the journey.
  3. 3
    Survive the Journey: This trip is long and prone to random monster attacks. While you might encounter smaller foes like wolves or goblins, be prepared for larger threats. An Ogre and a Minotaur are common spawns along the route. If you're unlucky, especially at night, you might even face a griffin or a Dullahan.
  4. 4
    Don't Worry About the Oxcart: Here's the crucial part: you don't actually need to protect the oxcart itself. The quest objective is to deliver the letter to Ser Lennart. Even if the oxcart is destroyed (as happened to us by a griffin!), the quest will continue. If you find yourself on foot after an attack, you can often run past any remaining large monsters to reach Melve.
  5. 5
    Deliver the Letter to Ser Lennart: Upon arriving in Melve, the game will highlight Ser Lennart's location. Find him (he was near the inn in our playthrough) and deliver the letter from Donovan.
  6. 6
    Report Back to Donovan: After delivering the letter, you must return to Vernworth and report your success to Donovan. He'll act as if the oxcart made it safely, regardless of its actual fate.
Tips
  • The journey is heavily reliant on RNG (Random Number Generation). Some trips will be smooth, others will be brutal.
  • If the oxcart is destroyed, don't panic. You can still complete the quest by making your way to Melve on foot.
  • Low-level parties might find protecting the oxcart very difficult. Focus on reaching Melve yourself rather than trying to fight every monster.
  • Clearing the road on your way to Melve might make the return trip to Vernworth slightly less eventful, but it's not guaranteed.
