How to use the Eternal Wakestone in Dragon’s Dogma 2

Like standard Wakestones, the Eternal Wakestone can revive fallen NPCs and allies. What makes it unique, though, is that it can counter the Dragonsplague if one of your pawns gets too sick with it.

If your pawn gets the Dragonsplague and it becomes too bad to handle, your pawn will turn into a dragon and kill everyone in sight. If you have the Eternal Wakestone, you can use it to prevent the terrible Dragonsplague from ruining your playthrough. I haven’t tried this out for myself, but according to players on Reddit, it is the best use for the Eternal Wakestone.
