Best gold-farming methods in Dragon’s Dogma 2

The methods listed below should give you an amazing gold per hour ratio and allow you to buy more goodies you might need. Each of these ways is quite unique, but they are easy to pick up.

Get a Hawker Pawn and farm raw materials

You can get a Hawker Pawn while you’re at a Riftstone. Hawker Pawns allow you to sell different items to them. So, get your Hawker Pawn and then go out in the world and farm as many herbs, ores, skins, and other similar items and sell it to them. You can stay in the wilderness for hours without returning to a town to empty your bags. On top of this, you can get a lot of experience this way. I recommend you go to the areas you still haven’t explored, namely big mines. Also, don’t forget to loot enemies and chests while doing this.

Sell Jasper, Onyx, Tiger’s Eye to specific vendors

You can sell Jasper, Onyx, and Tiger Eye to vendors in specific regions and get more gold than you normally would. Jasper is quite rare in Battahl, Onyx in Vermund, and Tiger Eye in the Elven lands. If you sell these items to vendors in the mentioned locations, you’ll get more gold. 

Sell Apples and Grapes to specific vendors

If you buy Apples and Grapes from Runne’s Apothecary, let them ripen, and then track down Wandering Merchant (usually traveling from one big city to another and staying there for a couple days), you can earn a lot of money. You must have ripe apples and need to pass a day or two until they are ready for sale. Also, make sure not to buy too many Apples and Grapes, otherwise they will rot. You can deposit them, too. If you can’t find the Wandering Merchant, you can sell them in Bakbatthal. This gold-farming method was first discovered by content creator Kibbles Gaming.
