Follow our comprehensive walkthrough for Dragon's Dogma 2's 'A Case of Sculptor's Block' quest, guiding you from Vernworth to Bakbattahl and through the challenging Griffin encounter.
Walkthrough
- 1Start the Quest: Speak with Klark, who is located just outside his estate in the southwestern part of Vernworth's Noble Quarter.
- 2Find Fulvio: Travel to Bakbattahl. Fulvio’s Workshop is located south of the Residential Ward. Speak with him to learn about the commission from Klark.
- 3Meet Fulvio Again: Rest for at least one day. Fulvio will be waiting at a meeting spot north of the Reverent Shrine in northern Battahl. The Wasteland Griffin’s Nest is further east up the road.
- 4The Griffin Encounter: When you reach the Griffin’s nest with Fulvio, your primary objective is to keep the Griffin away from Fulvio, as he is easily defeated. Use the “To me!” command to draw the Griffin’s attention if it targets Fulvio.
- 5Extend the Battle: To ensure Fulvio completes his sketch, you must prolong the fight. It is recommended to dismiss optional pawns and have your main pawn be a Mage for healing. The goal is to fight the Griffin until Fulvio announces he has finished his sketch, not necessarily to defeat it quickly.
- 6Fulvio's Completion: Listen for Fulvio to say, “’Tis done! With this sketch, I will doubtless be able to chisel a fine Griffin!” If he says, “I suppose that will have to do. I’ll have to use my imagination for the finer details…”, you did not give him enough time. In this case, reload your last save and try again to extend the fight longer.
- 7Alternative Method (Medusa Head): For a more reliable way to get the best sketch, use a Medusa Head to turn the Griffin to stone. This requires defeating Medusa first.
- 8Mystic Spearhand Vocation: If you have the Mystic Spearhand vocation, the Mirour Vesture skill can make you and Fulvio invulnerable, simplifying the process of extending the fight.
- 9Return to Klark’s Estate: After the Griffin encounter (regardless of the sketch quality), wait a few days for Fulvio to finish his work. Then, return to Klark’s Estate in Vernworth to attend the unveiling.
Tips
- Save at an inn before meeting Fulvio at the Griffin’s nest to easily reload if the Griffin flies away or you fail to get the best outcome.
- The Griffin’s nest itself contains extra gold and gems.
- If the Griffin is clearly losing, it is more likely to fly away. Intentionally dealing less damage and keeping it away from Fulvio can help prevent this.
- The reward varies based on the quality of Fulvio’s sketch. A good sketch typically yields better rewards.
