Everyt♛hing you need to know about Dragon'♔s Dogma 2 can be found here, Arisen!
While you won't always be able to afford the high prices these shops requ♐ire, these shopping staples work as standard locations where you can always go for more weapons and armor. No matter your vocation, you can find quality equipment to help you further your journey.
Weapon and armor stats will depend on your character's vocation and level, but these numbers are meant to give a general idea of the strength of the items when compared to one another.
Borderwatch Shop
When you finish the prologue, you'll be in the northern part of the map near Melve and the Borderwatch Outpost.
While the former will eventually be cleared of most NPCs after you liberate Harve, the Borderwatch Outpost will serve most of your needs early in the game.
In addition to these consistent merchants, you can also find traveling merchants with backpacks on the road and in settlements. However, you can usually find their wares in regular shops.
The primary shopkeeper is Kassandra, and she runs the Borderwatch Commissary.
Once you're fully equipped, you can continue south into more plentiful shops in the capital of Vermund for better equipment.
Vernworth Shops
Vernworth is the roaring capital of Vermund, the green and lavish country that you'll find yourself in at the beginning of the game. When you finally arrive there, your options for weapons and armor grow exponentially as you canꦡ purchase from specific armor and we𒊎apon vendors.
The three shops that can be found in Vernworth's merchant sector include Roderick's Smithy, Bjorn's Armory, and Philbert's Sundries.
Roderick's Smithy
Roderick's Smithy is the easternmost shop of the three, noticeable by the wooden red sign with different weapons on it. Roderick can also enhance your equipment using the Vermund smithing style.

In addition to the different weapons, you can also buy specialty arrows from Roderick that the Archer Vᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚocation uses for s𓆉pecial abilities.
Bjorn's Armory
When you need new armor to keep the monsters' attacks at bay, Bjorn's Armory offers a range of useful equipment for your starting classes.
He can also enhance your armor and weapons with the Vermund smithing style, which will r𓂃e🥃quire various monster resources.
You can also buy a Marcher's Armor set from Philbert's Sundries, but this is used more as a disguise to move around the pal🎶ace than an actual defense.
Harve Village Shop
You can unlock the village of Harve by saving it from the Saurians that have taken over the area following a dragon's attack. Once the threat has been cleared and the people return, you'll be able to visit the shop here, which can give you some minor equipment ꦕif you need it on your way to the Battahl border.
The main shop, unlocked after the villagers return, is Chandler's General Store.

The General Goods store also sells curatives and Ferrystones among its other items.
Grisha's Armory
Once you're allowed to freely move around the Elven settlement of Sacred Arbor, you'll get access to Grisha's Armory. She sells a wealth of magical items and can enhance your gear in the Elven style.
Sacred Arbor can be found in the northern-middle part of Vermund.
Grisha also sells rings and ammo for Archers.
Checkpoint Rest Town Shop
On the border between Battahl and Vermund, at the Checkpoint Rest Town, it isn't uncommon for skirmishes to break out. Thankfully, you can find an armor and weapon shop combo in the center of the town.
This shop can help you gear up before you head into Battahl or explore the northwest regions of Vermund.
The owner of the Checkpoint weapons and armor shop is Celeste, with the shop being named Celeste's Smithy.
You can also ask Celeste to enhance your gear as long as you've got the right materials. In addition, the Smithy also sells a couple of rings and ammo that Archers can use for abilities.
Bakbattahl Shops
Bakbattahl, the capital of Battahl, 💙is very different from Vernworth, with sand covering the cobblestone♒ pathways through the cloth-canopied merchant's area.
Your pawns will be looked down upon in this city, but it's a great place to get quality gear in mid-game.
Like in Vernworth, there are three shops right next to each other in Bakbattahl, including Isaac's Wares, Bodas's Armory, and Awaran's Arms. The two smithing merchants can also upgrade your gear using the Battahli style.
Awaran's Arms
Awaran runs a smithy with some mid to high-level weapons on the west side of the merchant section of Bakbattahl.

Awaran also sells ammo that Archers can use.
Bodas's Armory
Bodas is located in the middle of the three shops and sells mid-to-high-level armor that can protect you in battle.
There are also multiple rings for sale at Bodas's shop.
Dragonforged Shop
The Dragonforged is an ancient being, located to the northeast of Bakbattahl in the Bay Wayside Shrine on the greener coast, with a wealth of crafting experience that allows them to make some of the best gear in the game.
However, you won't unlock these weapons in his shop until you get into the end-game.
Before this, you can still buy FerryStones for three crystals, a Portcrystal for 20, or the Unmaking Arrow for eight.
You'll need Wyrmslife Crystals, which can be obtained from scouring dragon habitats and defeating them in battle. The Dragonforged can also use these crystals to enhance your weapon in the Wyrmfire smithing technique.
