Dragon's Dogma 2: What Are Rift Crystals?

There are many different currencies and resources that you can find in the world of Dragon's Dogma 2. While some are pretty self-explanatory, others can leave you scratching your head, as the game has a ton of different systems that are not typical for your regular RPG. While the game does have a pretty in-depth tutorial, not all of the information is easily accessible, which can lead to a lot of confusion regarding how all of these systems work together.

One of these currencies is called Rift Crystals, and being able to manage them is going to be one of the most important parts of the game. In this article, we are going to explain what these Rift Crystals are, how they can be used, and how you can find more of them in Dragon's Dogma 2.

Dragon's Dogma 2: What Are Rift Crystals?

In Dragon's Dogma 2, Rift Crystals (RC) are an in-game currency which is mainly going to be used to hire new Pawns from the Riftstone. You will be able to find many different Pawns in the rift, and the higher-level ones are going to require a certain amount of Rift Crystals in order to hire them. Rift Crystals can also be used to buy equipment in Pawn guilds, which can be located in some of the major cities within the game. Frequently using Rift Crystals on your adventure is going to allow you to create stronger party setups, which will, in turn, help you defeat stronger enemies in the world.

Dragon's Dogma 2: How to Get More Rift Crystals?

There are a few ways in which you can earn Rift Crystals in Dragon's Dogma 2. The main way of getting more of them is by allowing your main Pawn to be used by other players on their adventures. This is very similar to the way you can hire Pawns for your own party, with your main Pawn appearing in other players' Riftstones. When other players hire your Pawn, you are not going to lose him from your party (a copy of his appearance and stats will be used), but you will earn a certain amount Rift Crystals whenever his journey with the other player is completed.

Another way of earning Rift Crystals is through exploration, which can be done by finding damaged Riftstones or by slaying powerful enemies. Just by playing the game, you will be able to earn a steady amount of RC, which you can later use to hire stronger Pawns.

The last way of getting some Rift Crystals is by using real money in the in-game microtransaction store of Dragon's Dogma 2. While this is a bit more controversial, the game does allow you to purchase this resource if you want to spend more money on the game. We don't really recommend this method, as you can earn the currency through playing.

That is everything you need to know about the Rift Crystal currency in Dragon's Dogma 2. Hopefully, this guide has helped you figure out how the Pawn hiring system and multiplayer features of the game work.
