Gutter of Misery is a location in Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen.
Overview[]
Initially accessed from the Vault of Defiled Truth, the Gutter of Misery connects to the Shrine of Futile Truths wherein is the lair of a Gazer.
The Gutter of Misery comprises a stairwell area, the entrance to The Warriors' Respite, and a second area that resembles a winding sewer. At the end of the winding sewer is a door leading to the Shrine of Futile Truths.
Enemies[]
Foes found here include Maneaters and Leapworms. A random encounter with an Elder Ogre or Death may happen here.
Pre-Daimon foes include Vile Eyes, a large bask of Saurian species - either Saurians and Giant Saurians, or Sulfur Saurians and Giant Sulfur Saurians.
Post-Daimon creatures include:
- Eliminators, Greater Goblins, and a large bask of Sulfur Saurians and Giant Sulfur Saurians. Also an Elder Ogre may appear.
- Corrupted Pawns, Giant Undead, and Poisoned Undead. Also Death may spawn.
Loot[]
Ore deposits here contain Copper Ore, Hunk of Platinum, or Moonstone. The Pyrepipe mushroom is found here. Additionally small amounts of Rift Crystals can be found lying on the ground.
Gratings around here, both ground and in the outlets, have gather spots that may yield: Giant Rank Fish, Large Rank Fish, Rift Cluster or, rarely, Rift Bicrystal, Bitterblack Novelty Lv.1 or Bitterblack Gear Lv.1. Breakables here may drop various items including Harspud Sauce, Liquid Vim, Throwblast and Coin Purse of Charity.
There is a single Macabre Sculpture found in the lower levels inside a pipe - access is by a jump from roots hanging over the abyss into which the sewers fall.

Pawn Chatter[]
- "A sewer used in times long past, perhaps."
- "The water's fairly deep. Mind your lantern stays dry."
Notes[]
- A significant portion of the Gutter of Misery is water deep enough to inflict the drenched condition on party members.
- Use a Ring of Desiccation, an item that grants the status effect Impervious, or a Clean Cloth to mitigate or prevent the drenching.
- This is the second location where Elder Ogre or Death encounters happen.
- Death will appear with regularity here - if its teleport can be lured to just over the fall of the filthy water into the abyss (opposite the entrance to the Shrine of Futile Truths) then it can be slain by a fall using attacks that Knockdown. This can be a very effective Experience Points exploit. For details on this an other methods see 'Farming Death'.
