Dragon Age: The Veilguard Trophy Guide & Roadmap

MISSABLE – Can only reach 3 stars with all factions if in Chapter 6 you chose to protect Minrathous (not Treviso). This allows you to get 3 stars with both Dock Town and Treviso if you do all quests. If you protect Treviso you can get stuck at 1 star with Dock Town if you didn’t sell items to their merchant before they were destroyed. It’s recommended to protect MINRATHOUS in Chapter 6 (not Treviso). You should also have gained Mythal’s Favor at the end of side quest “Regrets of the Dread Wolf”, see trophy  Clear Minds and Open Hearts.

This is unlocked by getting the best ending where all possible Companions and all Faction Leaders survive. To do this, you will need to have done all quests in the game so that all companions are upgraded to Heroes of the Veilguard, and all regional quests so that you have 3 stars with all factions. You can sell items to the faction merchants to increase the star rating after having exhausted all quests.

At the Point of No Return, in Chapter 11 during quest “When Plans Align”, you will be shown a screen of your companion and faction strength. This must say they will all support you from a position of strength:

The only choices that matter for this are that you saved Dock Town in Chapter 6, and then the only choices that matter are who you assign which role during the ending in Chapter 12 to 14. Any other choices in the game have no impact on this, you can’t pick anything wrong and none of the companions can die before the ending.

During the Ending from Chapter 12 to 14 you can assign teammates to certain positions. You must assign them based on their strengths so that none of them die, and none of the faction leaders die. Save regularly in a different slot and watch the cutscenes, if someone dies or isn’t successful in protecting the faction leaders you must reload and make different choices.

One companion will always die which can’t be avoided. Whoever you select in Chapter 12 to lead the distraction team is going to sacrifice themself after the boss fight against “Ghilan’nain’s Blight Shield”. This will be either Harding or Davrin, one of the two is guaranteed to die based on your choice. This is okay and won’t void the trophy.

Also in Chapter 12 shortly after this boss fight you must choose who should take down the wards: Neve or Bellara. Whoever you choose will be taken away and temporarily leaves the team. This can’t be avoided. They will show as dead in the companion screen, but you rescue that person later in Chapter 13. They have to be Hero of the Veilguard (by having completed their companion questline) to survive this.

Here’s the full list of ending choices so that everyone survives:

Chapter 6 – A Warden’s Best Friend:

• Choose to save MINRATHOUS (Dock Town). NOT Treviso. – this is mandatory to reach at least 2-3 stars with all factions. If you chose Treviso, then Dock Town will get stuck at 1 star / 1900 points and one of their faction leaders will die which voids the trophy.

Chapter 12 – Isle of the Gods:

• Choose DAVRIN to lead distraction team – he dies after boss “Ghilan’nain’s Blight Shield” (this is okay, can’t avoid it). Harding will be safe.
• Choose BELLARA to take down the wards – she gets taken away, temporarily leaves the team but you rescue her later
• Take HARDING + NEVE with you on the next mission (probably doesn’t matter but this is what’s confirmed to work for the trophy)

Chapter 13 – The Last Gambit:

Back in the lighthouse, after you interact with the table in Lucanis’s quarters, you must assign your companions to specific roles in the upcoming fight. Pick the following:

• Companions who have experience dealing with magical wards or protecting others in battle: TAASH (protects Veil Jumpers)
• Companions who have experience fighting mages or attacking by surprise: LUCANIS (protects Antivan Crows)
• Companions who have experience fighting massive enemies or constructs: HARDING (protects Grey Wardens/Mourn Watch)
• After escorting Solas and arriving in the safe town where lots of NPCs are, do the optional objective to honor the fallen (it will have a blue quest marker).

Chapter 14 – The Dread Wolf Rises:

At the start of this quest you must again assign your companions, pick this:

• Companions who have experience fighting in front-line combat or sieges: TAASH (defends Divine Manor)
• Take HARDING + NEVE with you on the mission (probably doesn’t matter but this is what’s confirmed to work for the trophy)
• After defeating the Endboss pick dialogues: Let’s try this your way > I wish things were different
• Final Cutscene: You see Bellara survives. Then you see the sun over Dock Town, people emerge from the rubble, the last scene shows all 6 companions alive and standing together. Everyone except Davrin survives: Bellara, Emmrich, Harding, Lucanis, Neve, Taash, Yourself. Camera zooms in on the sun, then the results cutscene triggers.
•  The Ones That Last unlocked!

Step 1: Finish the side quest “Regrets of the Dread Wolf” to obtain Mythal’s Essence (automatic quest reward). See Clear Minds and Open Hearts for this questline.

Step 2: Find the first Mysterious Circle – found in Arlathan forest on a small island. To reach it you must shine all lasers in the area at the crystals on the island. Then a bridge appears to reach the island. There are 4 lasers total, 3 of which you must shine at the pillars on the island (see the video guide for laser puzzle).

Step 3: Find the second Mysterious Circle – found in Necropolis Halls. First you must have done the trophy  The Unbound. In the room where you fought “The Formless One” dragon check on the left side.

Step 4: Find the third Mysterious Circle – found in Crossroads. You must finish the Crossroads quest “The Heart of Corruption”. All waypoints will be marked, it requires opening doors and defeating 3 champions, then you can unlock the door at the start of the Crossroads. After completing the quest, check in the room where you fought the “Revenant Dragon”. The Circle will be on the left side where you can climb up.

Step 5: Finish the ending. After the credits, you now unlock a secret bonus cutscene that unlocks this trophy. If you have previously finished the ending you can replay it any time.

Step 1: Make Flowers grow in Hossberg Wetlands by completing two side quests “The Cabin in the Blight” & “Something’s Coming”.

• The Cabin in the Blight – accepted in The Lighthouse by reading letter marked with yellow “!” icon (alternatively from “!” icon in Hossberg Wetlands). Progress story until it becomes available.
• Something’s Coming – accepted in The Lighthouse by reading letter marked with yellow “!” icon, must have done previous quest “The Cabin in the Blight” (if it’s not available progress story further). Alternatively, can also be started in Hossberg Wetlands from “!” icon.

Step 2: Collect the 3 Flowers.

Flower #1: In the same spot where you finish quest “Something’s Coming”, in the northwest of Hossberg Wetlands (only after finishing side quest “Something’s Coming”).

Flower #2: Found in the east of Hossberg Wetlands in front of a chest, where blue flowers are (only after finishing side quest “Something’s Coming”).

Flower #3: Found in the southeast of Hossberg Wetlands in front of a chest, where blue flowers are (only after finishing side quest “Something’s Coming”).

Step 3: Deliver the Flowers – Return to the battlefield in the south of Hossberg Wetlands where you fought the dragon during the story. There a blue ghost spawns. Talk to it to deliver the flowers and unlock the trophy.

You will first need to finish all quests to gain access to all areas, so this will be one of your last trophies. The Altars get marked on the map when you go near them. There are trackers by region and by total progress, which can be viewed in the top left corner of the Local Map and World Map. This way you can quickly narrow down where you’re missing an Altar. If you can’t find or reach an altar in a region, odds are it’s gated behind a quest.

Note that the trophy description is slightly misleading, it implies that you only need Evanuris Altars, but the Fen’Harel Altars are also required!

1. Echoes of the Past – accepted by talking to Bellara at the Lighthouse, available at the start of Chapter 5 (after Story Quests ‘Sea of Blood’ + ‘The Smuggled Relic Case’)

In this scenario it will unlock even if you haven’t done Harding’s questline.

Note: If in Chapter 6 you chose to rescue the city of Dock Town instead of Treviso, Lucanis will temporarily leave your team to help rebuild Treviso. He will rejoin you later and all his quests are still doable in Chapter 11 before the Point of No Return. If you helped Dock Town, then after Lucanis’s last quest you must first do quests in Treviso before you can trigger the final dialogue for the trophy. Regardless of your story choices this is still obtainable. The quest names might be slightly different if you chose to help Dock Town in Chapter 6.

Note: If in Chapter 6 you chose to rescue the city of Treviso instead of Dock Town, Neve will temporarily leave your team to help rebuild Dock Town. She will rejoin you later and all her quests are still doable in Chapter 11 before the Point of No Return. If you helped Treviso, then after Neve’s last quest you must first do quests in Dock Town before you can trigger Neve’s final dialogue for the trophy. Regardless of your story choices this is still obtainable. The quest names might be slightly different if you chose to help Dock Town in Chapter 6.

1. A Study of Dock Town – accepted by talking to Neve at the Lighthouse, available at the start of Chapter 6 (after Story Quest ‘In Peace, Vigilance’)
2. The Cobbled Swan Case – accepted by talking to Neve at the Lighthouse, available at the start of Chapter 9 (after Story Quest ‘The Siege of Weisshaupt’) – I got this quest when having saved the city of Treviso in Chapter 6, if you chose to save Dock Town you might get a different quest.

8.  City of Shadows unlocks after talking to Neve again the Lighthouse when she has a big yellow “!” icon. She also becomes Hero of the Veilguard at this point.

1. For Gold and Glory – accepted by reading the note in Taash’s room at the Lighthouse, becomes available in Chapter 7 after recruiting Taash (after Story Quest ‘The Dragon Slayer’)

6. Words of Fire – talk to Taash again in Lighthouse > unlocks Little Dragon

This quest is unlocked automatically during the main story, it’s unmissable. You get it during Chapter 6 – Story Quest: A Warden’s Best Friend.

Simply follow the quest objectives and you will get all 6 bronze trophies tied to the 6 Memories.

2 of 6 Memories are given automatically from story progress:

• Chapter 6 – Story Quest: “A Warden’s Best Friend” (the Memory can only be viewed after reaching Chapter 8 – Story Quest “The Siege of Weisshaupt”)
• Chapter 10 – Story Quest “Grim Bonds” (available when this quest starts)

The remaining 4 Memories come from collecting the Wolf Statuettes as part of side quest “Regrets of the Dread Wolf”. All of them will be marked when tracking the quest from the journal (Touchpad > Map > ). They are all found in the Crossroads. Each Wolf Statuette unlocks one new Memory which can then be viewed at the Lighthouse. When returning to the Lighthouse there will be a quest marker in the central room, interacting with it triggers the memory.

3 of them require opening gates in the Crossroads by defeating Champions in other regions. You will unlock those subquests when following the objective markers of “Regrets of the Dread Wolf”. Complete the following subquests to open the gates: Gate of Lost Ages, Gate of Faded Flories, Gate of Deep Sorrows.

The first Memory can be viewed in the Lighthouse during Chapter 8, after starting the Story Quest ‘The Siege of Weisshaupt’. In the round room in the center inside the Lighthouse, go upstairs and there will be a waypoint marker on the wall at the top of the stairs. Interact with it to get a cutscene which unlocks the trophy.

Also refer to Clear Minds and Open Hearts, it’s highly missable and requires picking specific dialogues when talking to Mythal at the end of the questline.

1. Crossroads
2. Hossberg Wetlands
3. Dock Town
4. Arlathan Forest
5. Treviso
6. Rivain Coast
7. The Hall of Valor
8. Necropolis Halls

The areas unique to certain side quests don’t count for this. Many areas are only visited once during companion quests, which aren’t needed for the trophy. Basically you want to unfog all areas. The trophy may unlock slightly before having fully unfogged some side areas, because they are part of the same named area you have partially unfogged. Basically all that matters is that you visited every district that has a unique name, as seen on the Local Map top left corner.

You will unlock this trophy automatically while working through all main quests, companion quests, and regional quests to reach 3-star rank with all factions. You have to finish almost all quests in the game anyway which guarantees you will visit every district for quest objectives. So don’t worry about this, just focus on the other trophies and it will come naturally along the way.

1. A Slow Poison – accepted in The Lighthouse by reading letter marked with yellow “!” icon, after recruiting Lucanis during the story (after Story Quest ‘Sea of Blood’). Alternatively, can also be started in Treviso by talking to Viago & Teia.
2. A Time to Kill – accepted in The Lighthouse by reading letter marked with yellow “!” icon, must have done previous quest “A Slow Poison” (if it’s not available progress story further). Alternatively, can also be started in Treviso by talking to Viago & Teia.

Reaching Faction Rank 3 with the Antivan Crows isn’t mandatory for this trophy.

Note: this trophy is slightly buggy, if it doesn’t unlock after doing the above quests, push this faction to 3200 points by selling valuables to the faction shop and it should unlock. The faction vendor is only there if you chose to save Treviso in Chapter 6 (didn’t save Dock Town). If the trophy doesn’t unlock after the above quests and Treviso was destroyed, then you must reload the Chapter 6 backup save and replay from there to do all quests and push the faction to 3200 points.

1. The Cabin in the Blight – accepted in The Lighthouse by reading letter marked with yellow “!” icon (alternatively from “!” icon in Hossberg Wetlands). Progress story until it becomes available.
2. Something’s Coming – accepted in The Lighthouse by reading letter marked with yellow “!” icon, must have done previous quest “The Cabin in the Blight” (if it’s not available progress story further). Alternatively, can also be started in Hossberg Wetlands from “!” icon.

Reaching Faction Rank 3 with the Grey Wardens isn’t mandatory for this trophy.

Note: this trophy is slightly buggy, if it doesn’t unlock after doing the above quests, push this faction to 3200 points by selling valuables to the faction shop and it should unlock.

For this you must complete all side quests for the Shadow Dragons faction in Dock Town.

1. The Soul of a City – only available if in Chapter 6 you chose to save Dock Town (didn’t save Treviso)
2. In Memoriam – Throughout Dock Town you will find groups of enemies around corpses, for example in Urthemiel Venue of Dock Town (Map Level 2). Clear out the enemies and inspect the corpse, then you can talk to the ghost of the corpse to start this quest.
   
3. Rituals for the Risen – from “!” icon in Dock Town
   
4. Cornered in the Catacombs – from “!” icon in Dock Town
   
5. Out of Tune – from “!” icon in Dock Town
   
6. Mercenary Intent – from “!” icon in Dock Town (defeat the enemies at the docks)
   
7. A Hidden Hoard – from “!” icon in Dock Town
   
8. The Snake Nest Deal – from “!” icon in Dock Town
   
9. Desperate in Dock Town – starts automatically when completing “The Snake Nest Deal” side quest
10. Last Rites – from “!” icon in Dock Town
    
11. The Tempered Soul. Everlasting – starts automatically when completing “Last Rites” side quest

Note: this trophy is slightly buggy, if it doesn’t unlock after doing the above quests, push this faction to 3200 points by selling valuables to the faction shop and it should unlock. The faction vendor is only there if you chose to save Dock Town in Chapter 6 (didn’t save Treviso). If the trophy doesn’t unlock after the above quests and Dock Town was destroyed, then you must reload the Chapter 6 backup save and replay from there to do all quests and push the faction to 3200 points.

1. Hauntings: Deathly Curiosity – from “!” icon in Necropolis Halls (if it’s not available progress the story)
    
2. Hauntings: Restless Dreams – automatically starts upon completing “Hauntings: Deathly Curiosity”
3. Hauntings: From Beyond – automatically starts upon completing “Hauntings: Restless Dreams”
4. Hauntings: Shadows of Fortune – automatically starts upon completing “Hauntings: From Beyond”
5. Hauntings: Feeling Scared? – automatically starts upon completing “Hauntings: Shadows of Fortune”
6. Hauntings: Deadly Playtime – automatically starts upon completing “Hauntings: Feeling Scared?” > unlocks trophy  The Supernatural and the Strange after beating the “Death” boss

Reaching Faction Rank 3 with the Mourn Watch isn’t mandatory for this trophy.

Note: this trophy is slightly buggy, if it doesn’t unlock after doing the above quests, push this faction to 3200 points by selling valuables to the faction shop and it should unlock.

It’s a very short quest, the Caretaker will say that you received an invitation. Track it from the Journal (open Map, press ), then follow the waypoints. It leads to the Black Emporium vendor, the trophy unlocks when the quest is completed.

You increase reputation by doing quests in the area or selling valuables to the faction merchant. The other required resources are found frequently throughout the world.

For this trophy you only need to unlock one single shop improvement. You don’t need to upgrade a shop to the full maximum.

If you’re playing as a mage, use the dagger ( to switch weapon) and use melee attacks.

Here’s the Step-by-Step solution:

1. Spin the 2 statues upstairs in the middle to face each other.
   
2. Spin the 2 statues on the left to face each other (one behind Bellara’s Room, one underneath Neve’s Room)
   
3. Spin the 2 statues on the right to face each other (one outside Lucanis’s Room, one upstairs near the first two statues)
   
4. After you finished turning all 6 statues to face each other, a glowing wisp (small greenish blue orb) will fly into the Lighthouse. Go inside and go through the wall that has a note hanging on it, solving the statue puzzle will have opened the wall. It leads to the music room.
   
5. Inside the Music Room you should see one Wisp already, walk into it and place it in front of the door here. The Wisps only spawn after reaching Chapter 8 Story Quest “Shades of the Blight” (after recruiting Taash & Emmrich as companions).
   
6. Head back outside and go back upstairs where you turned the first two statues. There will be the second Wisp, walk into it and then bring it back to the Music Room, place it at the door.
   
7. Now a Portal appears in the Music Room. Go through it, you will be transported to the balcony above the main hall.
   
8. Interact with the blue crystal, the Caretaker will appear to thank you for solving the Puzzle (you also get +500 Caretaker Power).
9. Simply jump down the balcony to unlock Nostalgia Trip.

Unlocked by completing side quest “Regrets of the Dread Wolf”, and at the end you must gain Mythal’s Favor by picking correct dialogue choices.

This quest is unlocked automatically during the main story, it’s unmissable. You get it during Chapter 6 – Story Quest: A Warden’s Best Friend.

Simply follow the quest objectives to collect the 6 Memories.

2 of 6 Memories are given automatically from story progress:

• Chapter 6 – Story Quest: “A Warden’s Best Friend” (the Memory can only be viewed after reaching Chapter 8 – Story Quest “The Siege of Weisshaupt”)
• Chapter 10 – Story Quest “Grim Bonds” (available when this quest starts)

The remaining 4 Memories come from collecting the Wolf Statuettes as part of side quest “Regrets of the Dread Wolf”. All of them will be marked when tracking the quest from the journal (Touchpad > Map > ). They are all found in the Crossroads. Each Wolf Statuette unlocks one new Memory which can then be viewed at the Lighthouse. When returning to the Lighthouse there will be a quest marker in the central room, interacting with it triggers the memory.

3 of them require opening gates in the Crossroads by defeating Champions in other regions. You will unlock those subquests when following the objective markers of “Regrets of the Dread Wolf”. Complete the following subquests to open the gates: Gate of Lost Ages, Gate of Faded Flories, Gate of Deep Sorrows.

After you viewed all 6 Memories, return to the Crossroads and follow the quest marker. At the end of the quest you will talk to Mythal, pick the following dialogues to gain her favor, she can’t transform into a dragon (other dialogue combinations may work too):

• I want your help
• We must stop the blight
• You stood against it
• We must stop the gods
• They wronged you
• We are worthy
• Building a safe place

Then you get the peaceful outcome where you don’t fight Mythal in dragon form. You also get Mythal’s Essence which is a prerequisite for The Storm Quelled to get the secret ending.

For this you must have one Weapon, one Armor, and one Belt at Legendary (golden rarity) upgraded to +10.

Getting Highest Level (+10):

You must first upgrade the Caretaker shop in the Lighthouse to Rank 10, which is the maximum. The Caretaker is automatically unlocked from story progress, he is the ghostly figure who will appear in the courtyard outside the Lighthouse (hub area where your companions are). Rank 10 requires 12,000 Caretaker Power. You get Caretaker Power by collecting Mementos. Some Mementos give +50, some +100, some +200 points.

This is sort of the hidden “near 100% completion requirement”. To reach 12,000 Caretaker Power you will need almost all of the 182 Mementos in the game. Completing quests in the Crossroads also gives a couple hundred Caretaker Power (for example, the quest “The Heart of Corruption” which requires defeating all Champions). Completing the trophy Nostalgia Trip for solving the Lighthouse Puzzle gives another +500 Caretaker Power. This allows you to skip some Mementos.

Also upgrade all faction shops to Rank 4 to buy the expensive Rank 4 Mementos that cost 700-850 gold, these give +200 each.

The best approach is to thoroughly search all areas as you play through all main- and side quests. Also check the inventory of every merchant you find, they often sell Mementos. You will go through all areas while working through all quests, and many Mementos are gated behind side quests in otherwise unreachable areas. Search extra thoroughly in the unique areas during Companion Quests, these areas can’t be revisited and the quests can’t be replayed. After you finished all quests you should be close to 12,000 Caretaker Power. Then recheck all merchants, some of them will have new Mementos in stock after completing side quests. At faction vendors you must press to browse to the “Valuables and Collectibles” section. The Black Emporium merchant also sells Mementos.

The exact amount of Mementos you need will vary depending on how many of the +100 and +200 ones you find. I had 143/182 (78.5%) when I reached 12,000 Caretaker Power. Because so many Mementos require side quest progression you will need to finish practically all quests in the game for this.

For Memento Locations refer to: Dragon Age Veilguard Memento Locations.

Getting Highest Rarity (Legendary):

Rarity is increased by finding the same item multiple times. These come primarily from equipment chests, but some can also be bought from merchants. Each duplicate you find increases the rarity by one level: Common (Gray) > Uncommon (Green) > Rare (Blue) > Epic (Purple) > Legendary (Golden).

The best approach is to open any chests you find while working through quests. By the time you upgrade the Caretaker to +10 you should already have a few items at Epic rarity. Then check all faction merchants if they sell a duplicate of one of your Epic items, this will upgrade it to Legendary. If you already upgraded the Caretaker to +10 then the items you find/buy will automatically be +10.

Shop Ranks:

1. 0 (this is the starting rank)
2. 250
3. 750
4. 1250
5. 2000
6. 2750
7. 4000
8. 6000
9. 9000
10. 12000

Good to know: upgrade the Caretaker at every opportunity. Then any items you find or buy will automatically be at the current Caretaker Level. For example, if you have the Caretaker at Level 5, every item you find is guaranteed to be +5. Even if you find a duplicate of an old +1 item it will be upgraded to +5 for free.

By doing all quests needed for other trophies you will get enough level-ups to buy 52 skills. If you fall short by a few levels you can simply collect a few Wolf Statues.

Do note that you can’t ‘cheat’ this trophy by resetting your skills and then buying other skills you didn’t unlock before. You must have 52 unlocked at the same time so a minimum of 52 skill points is required.

1. The Formless One – defeated as part of side quest “Pinnacle of its Kind” – see The Unbound (this one maybe isn’t mandatory for the trophy as it’s classified as a ‘demon dragon’)
2. Fangscorcher – defeated as part of Taash’s fourth companion quest “Slaying the Fangscorcher” (accepted in the Lighthouse by talking to Taash). This dragon is weak to ice damage and resistant to fire.
3. Kaltenzahn (Dragon King) – defeated as part of Taash’s fifth companion quest “Lair of the Dragon King” (accepted in the Lighthouse by talking to Taash). This dragon is weak to fire damage and resistant to ice.
4. Kataranda the Stormrider – defeated as part of Taash’s quest “Kataranda the Stormrider” (accepted in Lighthouse by reading one of the letters in Taash’s room that has a “!” icon on it)

Note: There is a 5th and 6th dragon but they don’t count towards this trophy. The “Revenant Dragon” is fought at the end of Crossroads region quest “The Heart of Corruption”. Mythal in dragon form can be fought at the end of the Crossroads quest “Regrets of the Dread Wolf” but this should be avoided as it cancels  Clear Minds and Open Hearts and isn’t needed for all dragons anyway.

1. Restless Spirits – accepted by talking to Emmrich at the Lighthouse, becomes available in Chapter 7 after recruiting Emmrich (after Story Quest ‘Where the Dead Must Go’).
2. Pinnacle of its Kind – accepted by interacting with the door in Chamber of the Unforged (Map Level 1) – this room is unlocked as part of the previous side quest “Restless Spirits”.
    

For “Pinnacle of its Kind”, simply follow the waypoints. You must defeat 3 demons in different areas, you can fast travel to them using the World Map. Each demon has a marked search area, in the search area you must find a brazier you can interact with. Then defeat the demon. After defeating all 3, return to the door where the quest started. Now the door is open, behind it is a big dragon boss called “The Formless One”. Defeat him to finish the quest, which unlocks the trophy.

This is a level 40 boss with a lot of health. Come prepared, be fully healed and bring 3 health flasks. Being level 40+ is recommended. Set the difficulty to the “Storyteller” (easiest) in the Gameplay Settings. There are no healing recharges in the boss arena so make sure you dodge incoming attacks to not run out of health.
