Dragon's Dogma 2 Brokkr Smithy: How to Unlock the Secret Shop

Aside from vocations and character stats, weapons and armor play a crucial role in enhancing your character's strength. Many of the best equipment pieces in Dragon's Dogma 2 Brokkr Smithy become available as you progress toward the end-game. However, reaching this point requires significant campaign advancement. Fortunately, a particular side quest allows you to unlock a hidden vendor early, granting access to some of the most powerful gear available. This guide will walk you through the process of gaining access to this secret shop to help you breeze through battles with superior equipment.

Brokkr’s Smith Secret Shop

Dragon's Dogma 2 Brokkr Smithy is located at the outskirts of Bakbattahl. At first glance, it may seem unremarkable, leading many players to overlook its potential. However, a hidden vendor named Sara, Brokkr’s apprentice, operates in the smithy. To unlock her shop, you need to complete a specific questline.

Many players miss out on this opportunity because the associated quest originates in Vernworth. Unfortunately, it only becomes accessible after advancing a certain portion of the storyline. Below, we outline the steps required to complete the questline and gain access to Sara’s shop within Brokkr’s Smithy.

How to Unlock the Secret Shop

The questline begins once you complete the Seat of the Sovran mission, which is automatically unlocked after entering Melve. Here’s how you proceed:

1. Head to Vernworth Castle’s courtyard and locate an NPC named Roman. He will reveal himself as a thief and provide you with the Dulled Regalia Sword, initiating the Dulled Steel, Cold Forge quest.
2. Take the sword to the Vernworth Blacksmith, who will direct you to Brokkr’s Smithy.
3. Upon showing the sword to Brokkr, he expresses interest but insists on remaining retired.
4. At this point, interact with Sara to begin the Steel Resolve, Blazing Forge quest, which ultimately unlocks her shop.

To complete this quest, follow these steps:

• Speak with Sara, who plans to lure Brokkr out of retirement. She tasks you with collecting 15 Glimmer Coal.
• You can find this material in Digger’s Ruins, southwest of Bakbattahl. Look for green-glowing stones, which become more visible if you turn off your lamp.
• Return the 15 Glimmer Coal to Sara, then wait for an in-game day by using a bed or repeatedly sitting on a bench.
• After waiting, Sara will inform you she needs another day to learn Blaze Forging.
• Upon returning, Sara will be missing. Brokkr will explain that she likely headed toward the Volcanic Island.
• Travel south of Bakbattahl, passing through Drabnir’s Grotto and Mountain Base Cave to reach Sara.
• Inside the Blaze Forge, Sara will ask for your assistance in escorting her out before her hammer cools.
• Though you can return directly to Brokkr’s Smithy, consider exploring the surrounding areas for valuable items such as Cinderspine and Molten Fury.
• Once you return to Brokkr’s Smithy, the Regalia Sword will be repaired, and the shop will unlock upon completing the quest.

After an additional in-game day, Sara’s shop becomes accessible. Before then, you can return the Regalia Sword to Roman in exchange for 6,000 gold. If you build a strong relationship with Sara by gifting her flowers, you can receive a 10% discount on her wares.
