Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen farming glitch bitterblack lvl3 and wakestones with doortrick glitch!!!

[@trevorsamuels8392]

Also making this a separate comment so it can help more people who might be confused and so it can pinned by the guy who made the video hopefully. But it works as of January 17th, 2022 if anyone was wondering. But basically you have to beat daimon 1st form and only daimon 1st form and instead of taking the shortcut back you have to run all the way from daimons boss room to olra taking no shortcuts along the way. If you did it right the usual cutscene for beating daimon the first time should play when you get back to olra but the shortcut doors will remain open. After that it's just a matter of getting back to daimons boss room and doing everything in the video. Also I forgot to include this in my reply to my other comment but after the cutscene plays you can use the shortcuts to get back to daimon, it took me rage quitting from strigoi dropping me off a cliff 9 times to figure that out, lol. I hope this helps people out.

[@trevorsamuels8392]

So far putting a barrel at the entrance to go back to the fallen city doesn't really do anything as once you get the glitch going the bars never come down, just the ones for the treasure room which you barrel glitch through anyway. Although I am on xbox so if there's an invisible wall there or something let me know if you encounter it.

[@trevorsamuels8392]

Also another update incase anyone skimmed but you can use any of the shortcuts to get back to olra just don't use the shortcut in daimons boss room to get back. Haven't tested but that might be the trigger that interrupts the glitch.

[@trevorsamuels8392]

Also if you just want to farm rift crystals you can open all the chests except for the middle one on the left (only contains a moonbeam gem which opens the doors in blue moon tower so there's no need) speed up the process.

[@trevorsamuels8392]

Another thing is that if you get overencumbered you can summon pawns outside the door to bitterblack sanctum, put anything you want to store on said pawns, and then throw them off of the nearby cliff, they'll die and anything you gave them will go straight to your storage(keep whatever weapons you're using on hand though since you may have to kill the drakes and eliminators/living armors that spawn on the trail to the town).

[@trevorsamuels8392]

Shoutout to @Garrett Hundley in one of the other comments for the tip about the pawns, that was genius.

[@felipe_xisto]

By the comments, this glitch only works with pre-daimon. I've tested this and works as follows: 1) Fight against Pre-Daimon(only fist form). If you have pawns, let them be killed by daimon, because they'll make the second step near impossible. After battle you can open the chests. 2) Use the door glitch and go through Fallen City to Corridor of Hallowed, use the door there and go to the pier. Near Olra a different cutscene will play. 3) Go back to Sanctum and the room will be like in the video, no daimon and the chest room closed. Use the door glitch again in the chest room, and pawns here are problem. 4) After full inventory, you can go to Fallen City, summon any pawn, fill it with the loot and release it on the rift or throw it cliff down. 5) You can repeat this process indefinitely. 6) To end the glitch, and make your game normal again use the last gate in the Sanctum, the cutscene where Ashe and Olra talk will play.

[@GigioGameplay]

really works? I will start a new game to testb here.

[@felipe_xisto]

@@GigioGameplay Yes, it works. No more grinding. You can even farm rift crystals to unlock the items. And I give you a tip, before glitching through the gate with the chests save the game because if you get stucked there you'll have to end the glitch and start from the beginning

[@garretthundley5341]

So I killed Daimon, first time, used the door glitch to go back to the fallen city. I then ran back to Olra via the Corridor of Hallowed. No cut scene triggered. Am I supposed to do something in particular to trigger the cut scene? I tried talking to her, going in and out the first door of the BBI, and still no cutscene trigger.

[@garretthundley5341]

nvm, there was no cut scene to be triggered, just had to go back and just look at her and then went back and it worked.

[@gatitagiz2]

@@freeph78 oh they did it’s just rare which is annoying

[@MdMaynard]

This works flawlessly!! I am SO thankful for this. I really didn't feel like grinding another 20+ hours looting chests, advancing time, looting chests again to keep 'purifying' until I get all the gear I want (since the purification seems to be scripted results instead of random: I even tried deleting the console save then reloading from USB backup saves that were from even before stepping onto Bitterblack island and purifying say 10 Lvl-1 novelties gave me the same results with same attributes in the exact same order every time. Tried it with 17 Lvl-1 Gear, and 5 Lvl-2 Weapons. Same results in identical order every time after trying eight save-reloads). My point is reloading saves always has the identical results so I need a lot of the cursed items to end up with what I want and this video has absolutely saved me from needless hours grinding. A MASSIVE thanks to you for posting this!!

[@jawnTem]

Just a heads up, if you climb the cliff above Olra, higher than the chest that's on the cliff face overlooking the bay, you get this cutscene with Olra, credits roll, and even though you didn't come out of the BB Sanctum the correct way, (where Daimons first form is) everything locks and you have to restart BBI all over again.

[@cha-cha_supercazador]

I found an additional effect from this glitch: If you defeat Grigori while this glitch is active, when you defeat dragons and zombie dragons in Bitterblack, you will not be able to "dragon forge" any weapons or armor.

[@vgfan4ever]

I'm seeing several disparities here in the comments how to do this so I'm going to lay it out start to finish here. Step 1. Beat Daimon 1st form and loot the 4 chests, do not leave through the end door. The gate you came in from will be closed and you'll need to do the barrel trick to get back through it, which means you might want to fight daimon alone so your pawn isn't trying to break it while you're using it and there's no way to kill them in the sanctum while you're gated off from the door you came in. Step 2. Run back to Olra, yes take the shortcut at the Corridor, and when you approach her talk to her but contrary to another comment the final cutscene will NOT play. I suspect it might be the trigger that actually relocks the shortcuts so you don't want it to play. She just offered me normal dialogue and then I returned through the shortcut and when you enter the sanctum, the room will now be in the state in this video. Entering and exiting through the fallen city door will reset every item and chest in this room but the front gate will be open and the back gate will be closed, just like in this video. Step 3. Go nuts using the barrel trick on the far gate to load up on bbi3 weapons armors and novelties, then use the rift stone outside the main door to give your stuff to your 3rd or 4th pawn and throw them off the cliff for quick transport. Main pawn inventory stays with them so they can't be your banker unfortunately. If you stay near the wall in the fallen city you can avoid the attention of the wyverns and living armor. When you're done exit the back door to trigger the end scene and move on. DO NOT USE A LIFTSTONE DURING THIS, it will trigger the end cutscene. You can even save and quit while you're in the sanctum and come back and farm more later. Make sure you don't save where you'll be locked by the back gate from reaching the barrel lol.

[@Gmonk20]

thanks for the detailed guide! you really left no stone unturned. my main concern was whether I could take the shortcut in the corridor when tracking back to the surface or not, but as you said it's 100% safe and won't mess up the glitch. :)

[@nagaraja1918]

So do I have to track back to the surface every time I loot the chests while the glitch is active?

[@vgfan4ever]

@@nagaraja1918 Nope just once, best way I can explain it is that everyone sees the dungeon as two phases, pre daimon and post daimon, when actually there are 3 phases, the third one being between pre and post daimon. You want to be in that phase, which appears to be triggered by returning to the surface of BBI and talking to Olra but doesn't trigger the Post-Daimon stage until you actually exit through the door at the end of daimons area. Using a lift stone triggers the flag the same as if you went through the daimon end door. Basically the only two ways to screw this up are 1. Go through daimons end gate after defeating him or 2. Use a liftstone after defeating him. As long as you don't do either of these it will not advance to post-daimon. The only other thing that gets in the way is the front gate inside daimons room by the door you enter, the first time I tried this I didn't realize that gate would close during rhe daimon fight and I wouldn't be able to get back out, effectively locking me into having to leave through daimons end door. However if you use the barrel trick to get through the front gate after the fight and do the backtracking to Olra, when you come back that front gate will be open and never close again. The back gate will be closed but you can barrel trick through that, grab your stuff from the chests, barrel trick back through the gate and save in daimons room (you don't want to load the game and be stuck in the gate with the three chests as there's no barrel in there and you'll have to leave through the end door). Need anything else clarified just ask, I was also really paranoid about screwing it up and missing my chance so I save loaded with a USB and experimented with a bunch of things to see what it would do.

[@vgfan4ever]

@@nagaraja1918 to reset the loot in the chests just exit and re-enter through the door to the fallen city

[@julianrossi7607]

NEVER SAVE INSIDE the locked room, always before the glitch, cause if it fails you have to do all again. Trust me, im a sorcerer and i need 2 boxes to glitch haha when you fall to oblivion the box being holded dont reset

[@iceikiru6171]

Right so everyone. 1st: beat daimon aka the boss 2nd: after defeating him, use the barrel trick to go through the gate that leads into the fallen city and go to npc olra at the start (note that liftstone is not an option, it will not work) 3rd: run back to daimon boss room and he will not be there. This will allow you to do the method that's in the video, rinse and repeat till your happy enough. I havent tried it, but I understand it lel.

[@iceikiru6171]

Also make sure you have space in your inventory, I suggest getting the maximum capacity carrying boots of oblivion and getting the augment sinew from fighter class. Hope this helped

[@mooniniteerr1587]

When I have those BBI cursed items, I gave them to Olra that she can purified them. But it only gives me arrows and daggers. Why not staffs and rings?

[@crackersdrake8448]

So the items you get depend on you and your main pawns vocations. Example: If you are a red class (fight or warrior) and your pawn is a blue class (mage or sorcerer) then you have a 50% chance of getting red class gear and a 50% chance of getting blue class gear. If you want warrior weapons though, then both you and your pawn should be warrior. Hybrid classes make it even more difficult. Say you're a magick archer (yellow and blue hybrid) with a fighter pawn (red class); if you purify gear/armor/weapons then your chances change to 25% yellow/ 25% blue/ 50% red. What most people do is change themselves and their pawn to the vocation they want to purify for right before they purify. I'm currently trying to get the Oblivion Armor Set, so I switch my pawn and myself to strider or ranger (doesn't matter for armor as they both are yellow) and purify then. I play as a magick archer though, and they wear mostly yellow gear (with some blue sets as well, but I prefer the Oblivion set). It's kinda annoying and confusing at first, I know. And trying to get the weapons for the Mystic Knight and Magick Archer can be a huge pain (think about the colors and chances involved...) Anyway, hope this answered your question. Good luck farming!

[@trevorsamuels8392]

Can someone give me a quick rundown on how to do this? So far all I know it either has to be your first playthrough without beating daimon first form yet or your playthrough doesn't matter and you either have to beat first form or you can beat first form and you have to run all the way back to olra. I'm confused.

[@trevorsamuels8392]

Works as of January 17th, 2022 if anyone was wondering.

[@trevorsamuels8392]

Also don't know if I have to say this because most know this already but for the noobs out there (lol) make sure you're not in the room with the chests if you quit out or you'll be trapped in there and will have to end the glitch because you can only get out of there by taking the rooms shortcut to olra unless there's barrel on the other side of the gate. I've actually accidentally hit the barrel I needed before but luckily I placed another one within my characters reach so I was lucky.🤣

@Newbornmatter Yep, try again on another playthrough. Because if your fighting gangly boy daimon then it's too late to try again. It's only doable right after you beat first form daimon and you can't go through the normal exit to get back to olra. You have to go through the way you entered the boss room and then all the way back to olra from the town.
