How to unlock the secret ending in Dragon Age: The Veilguard

2 weeks ago 2

There are many, many quests and diversions to distract you from the main quest in Dragon Age: The Veilguard. All of them are rewarding in their own way, whether it be story, gear, or a Trophy, but not all will help you get the game's true ending. If you want the complete story, you will need some very specific tips on what to do and when or you will most likely miss out on in completely. Without spoiling anything, we'll make sure you know exactly what to do to get the true ending in Dragon Age: The Veilguard.

How to get the true ending in Dragon Age: The Veilguard

The true ending has two requirements you must meet before passing the point of no return. You know you are at this point when the next story mission is When Plans Align.

Step 1: The first part of the process is completing the sidequest called Regrets of the Dread Wolf, which involves collecting six memories of Solas during his rebellion. Two are given to you during the main story, but the remaining four are missable.

Step 2: All four are located in the Crossroads and are marked on your map so long as you have that quest active. Some of them cannot be accessed until you reach certain points in the main story, however, so you cannot complete this quest as soon as you reach this location.

Three are locked behind gates that only open after you defeat their respective Champions in other regions of the world. The subquests tied to these Champions are Gate of Lost Ages, Gate of Faded Flories, and Gate of Deep Sorrows.

Step 3: After you have found and viewed all of Solas's memories, you will be directed to speak to a fragment of Mythral in the Crossroads. Make sure you use the following dialogue choices:

  • 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 This will get you Mythal's Light and avoid you having to fight her.

Step 4: You now need to find three Mysterious Circles around Thedas.

The first is in Arlathan Forest at the Waterfront Glades and requires you to solve a puzzle by directing all the beams in the area at a crystal on an island to form a bridge. This is the location of the island:

Step 5: A miniboss will be waiting for you there, so be prepared. Once you take it out, interact with the Mysterious Circle floating by the pillar to hear some dialogue.

Step 6: The second circle is in the Necropolis Halls, but is only accessible after you've done Emmrich's first companion quest called Restless Spirits and the sidequest Pinnacle of Its Kind.

Step 7: The circle will be on the left side of the room where you fought the dragon called The Formless One.

Step 8: The final circle is back in the Crossroads and is at the end of The Heart of Corruption quest. Just follow the waypoints and defeat the bosses.

Step 9: Once finished, return to the arena you fought the Revenant Dragon in and climb up the path to the left to grab the circle.

Step 10: With all that done, simply finish the game or replay the ending to get one extra, secret scene after the credits.
