Walkthrough the quest “The Hunt for the Jadeite Orb” in Dragon’s Dogma 2
How to start the task
First of all, you will need to get to the regional capital of Vernworth. Then go to its northwestern part and use the services of a cart to move to the Border Town, located far to the west (you will have to pay 200 coins for transportation). On the way, you may be attacked by monsters, but the guards should deal with them without any problems.
Having arrived at the desired settlement, almost immediately a beastman named Ophaly will ask you. He will ask you to find for him the Jadeite Sphere, which was stolen by thieves. If he didn’t run up to you himself, then you can easily find him near the entrance to the city (see screenshots below).
However, do not rush to search for a precious stone. Instead, go up the street on the left towards Celeste's Smithy and Everard will call out to you directly opposite it (the exact location is shown in the pictures below). He will tell you that Ofaliy stole the Jadeite Sphere from him and will note that he will generously reward you for its return.
Where to find the Jadeite Sphere
If you want to find out the location of this item in the plot, then you will need to return to Vernworth, go to the dungeon tower located on the castle grounds, and ask the criminal sitting in the second cell on the right about it (see screenshots below). However, it is not necessary to do this at all!
You can immediately go to Ibrahim's Hardware Store, located in the west of Border Town (exact location shown in the images below). Talk to him, and then select the “Buy” option. Among its assortment will be the pebble you need, the cost of which is 7.5 thousand gold.
You will be able to purchase only one stone from him, so you will have to choose who exactly to give it to. However, there is an option in which you can not only satisfy the requirements of both quest givers, but also keep the jadeite sphere with you.
To whom to give the Jadeite sphere – Everard or Ophalia
Immediately after purchasing the stone, order the creation of a fake from Ibrahim, paying him 2000 gold for the work. He will note that he needs time to complete the order, so just sit on the bench located slightly to the right and above the store, and then fast forward time on it. You will need to wait 2-3 days before you can pick up your copy of the orb.
Having received the Fake Jadeite Sphere, head to Ophaly, who will be waiting for you in the same place and give him the fake (or real stone). He won’t even check it and will immediately give you a reward:
- 3000 gold.
- Elite backpack.
Note: If you gave Ophaly a fake, then you can meet him in Border Town in a couple of days. He will say that he will definitely find a way to take revenge on you if he finds out that you deliberately gave him a fake stone. However, in the end we did not encounter any negative consequences.

Next, you can go to Ibrahim again to create another fake or go straight away to Everard. Give him a real or fake sphere, but unlike Ofaliy, he will decide to check the authenticity of the goods and will go with you to Ibrahim.
The merchant will note that he needs to do some business, so he will ask you to wait near the shop while he leaves. If you previously gave Everard a fake, you can bribe Ibrahim by paying him 12,000 gold, and then he will not rat you out. Otherwise, the quest giver will find out that you wanted to deceive him, so you will end up in a dungeon.
If you gave Everard a real stone or were able to bribe Ibrahim, you will receive from him as a reward:
- 12,000 gold.
- Ring of Deception – increases damage when attacking from behind.
Note that the Jadeite Sphere itself can be sold for about 2500 gold. For this reason, we do not advise you to try to deceive Everard. The most profitable option for you is to give the fake to Ophalia and give the real stone to Everard. Let's add that for completing this quest you will receive 1000 experience points.
