The Golden Trove Beetle is a consumable item in Dragon’s Dogma 2 that can greatly help you. Each beetle you consume will permanently increase your weight-carrying capacity by 0.15 kg. The boost is not limited to you; your main pawn will also be able to carry more weight.
There are other ways to boost the carrying capacity, but Golden Trove Beetles are the best permanent method without changing your character’s physique. You can find these beetles mostly on trees, but there are some quests in Dragon’s Dogma 2, like The Gift of Giving, in which Daphne rewards you with a Golden Trove Beetle.
Besides trees in the open world, a few wandering merchants can also sell you Golden Trove Beetles. However, tracking these merchants can be a bit of a pain as they keep moving around. You don’t have to worry, though; I will not only guide you with their locations but also provide a map for each Golden Trove Beetle location that marks their exact spawn location.
Vermund Golden Trove Beetle locations in Dragon’s Dogma 2
Most of the Golden Trove Beetles are available in the Vermund region of the map since it has the most trees. You can explore this area early in the game, which means you can increase your carrying capacity quite early.
However, you can only gain the weight bonus from a maximum of 50 beetles, and consuming any more after that is just wasting them.
