After you make it to Battahl, you’ll in all probability run into Hugo by the Coral Snakes quest earlier than he’s taken into gaol. This may result in the “Off the Pilfered Path” quest in Dragon’s Dogma 2 the place you’ll want to determine find out how to supply Hugo steerage.

Dragon’s Dogma 2: How you can supply Hugo steerage in Off the Pilfered Path

Whenever you first arrive on the scene within the gaol, Hugo received’t wish to communicate a phrase of something. Like most quests in Dragon’s Dogma 2, determining what to do will be powerful with none quest hints. You’ll first wish to begin by strolling into the Bakbattahl Gaol Guardhouse which is a small room close to Hugo’s cell.

You’ll discover a Makeshift Gaol Key (I used this to open the cell containing a Seeker Token inside), and a e book that you could learn. Learn the web page, then communicate with Hugo once more. This time he’ll have extra to say, and should you communicate to Dietrich after, he’ll let you know that the pinnacle gaoler can provide Hugo his freedom.

Now you can take to the pinnacle gaoler, Ekratt, and he’ll ask for a bribe of 1,000 gold to let Hugo out. After I gave him that quantity of gold, he stated to attend a bit, so I went on one other quest and got here again. As an alternative of Hugo being out, sadly, Ekratt wished extra gold.

This time the pinnacle gaoler requested for 2,500 gold and I needed to wait a second time for him to complete his enterprise. The following time I got here again to the gaol it appeared like the one change that occurred was a brand new prisoner named Brefft.

He was one other member of the Coral Snakes and I used to be capable of press him for data on the place the Coral Snakes’ new hideout was. This concerned me chatting with him, then speaking to Dietrich once more (who instructed me there’s extra to his story), after which speaking to Brefft again and again till I obtained the hunt replace. They’re now hiding out within the Historic Battleground.

The place to seek out the Historic Battleground in Dragon’s Dogma 2

You will discover the Historic Battleground in Vermund, it’s northeast of the Checkpoint Relaxation City. I then instructed Hugo in regards to the location of their new hideout. You possibly can wait a day or two earlier than returning to the gaol, the place you’ll discover out that Hugo escaped gaol.

As a reminder, don’t go to the Historic Battleground till Hugo escapes. I made the error of trying out the Historic Battleground earlier than he escaped and I didn’t discover the Coral Snakes. I then got here again to the gaol to seek out out Hugo escaped, forcing me to make the trek again there.

You’ll should make your means by the citadel of the Historic Battleground after which up one other degree the place you’ll discover Lanzo and his crew. After a troublesome battle, Hugo was disillusioned to seek out that my group had killed the Coral Snakes earlier than he may. I hadn’t seen Hugo that complete time, so I wasn’t certain how I may’ve had him kill them first.

In any other case, he questioned my Arisen on what to do since I instructed him he may reside an sincere life. You possibly can select to say that you already know of a spot he can reside, and on the time I hadn’t identified of any locations for Hugo. In accordance with analysis, should you’ve completed Wilhelmina’s questline you possibly can advocate he work on the Rose Chateau Bordelrie.

Though I’ve unlocked the power to make use of the Rose Chateau, I’ve but to discover it, so I in all probability missed extra aspect quests with Wilhelmina. There could also be different locations you possibly can advocate for Hugo, however to date that’s the one confirmed place you possibly can advocate.

Hopefully, you have been capable of get by this complicated quest and get the higher ending of it. Many quests in Dragon’s Dogma 2 have totally different selections and penalties, corresponding to Tensions on the Highroad which asks you to aspect with both Simon or Raghnall.
