Looking for a walkthrough for the main quest Feast Of Deception in Dragon’s Dogma 2?Congratulations on getting to the end of the first major story arc (some might say Act 1) ofDragon’s Dogma 2. There’s a lot more to go after that, but first you have to sit through a number of cutscenes and dialogues which make up the quest, Feast Of Deception.
But if it’s just cutscenes and dialogue, why bother with a walkthrough? Because, dear reader, we highly recommend you complete a certain side-quest before you start Feast Of Deception. We’ll go over that quest and how to complete the main story quest itself in thisFeast Of Deceptionwalkthrough.

Feast Of Deception quest walkthrough
Feast Of Deception objectives:
Honestly, “Feast of Deception” is barely a quest in itself, more just a collection of cutscenes. However! We’d strongly recommend you complete “The Arisen’s Shadow” side-quest first, as it sets you up nicely for the next main quest after this one.
“The Arisen’s Shadow” is started automatically, the moment you completed the “Monster Culling” quest. Turns out, there’s abrown-cloaked figurewho occasionally spies on you while you’re in Vernworth. Walk around til you find him, then run after him andgrab him(yes, literally grab him).
Have a conversation with the spy,Bermudo, and he’ll ask you to let him go in exchange for coin. We recommend yourefuse, after which you’ll enter a fight with him.

Now back to the main quest: talk to Brant once more and tell him you are ready for thecoronation. Then sit back and relax while you watch the cutscenes and dialogues that follow. We won’t spoil what happens here, you’ll find out soon enough.
Once control is back in your hands, justsit on the benchbehind Brant again until the game tells you that you have awaited Brant’s plan of action. Then speak to him again to complete the quest, where you’ll receive a rare and valuablePortcrystalfor finally completing Brant’s questline.

So, why is it important that you complete “The Arisen’s Shadow” first? Because if you do, then Brant’s investigation involves speaking to Bermudo, the captured spy, after which Brant will give you aBorder Entry Permit, which allows you to enter Battahl without issue in the next main quest. He also will give you atipabout an important upcoming character.
If you don’t complete “The Arisen’s Shadow” (or if you kill Bermudo or let him go), then you don’t get the tip about the upcoming character, and Brant is only able to procure aBeastren Border Entry Permit. This lesser permit works fine if your main character is Beastren, but if it isn’t then you may have todisguise yourselfas Beastren using a mask that costs 8,700g (more info below).

And with that, you’ve completed the first major arc of theDragon’s Dogma 2story! The next several quests take you to Battahl, a far more dangerous place than Vermund.
