Dragon Age Veilguard: Tips and tricks
- Don't forget to spend companion skill points - your party grows and develops alongside you. Keep in mind to check their personal skill trees from time to time and spend the points they've gained.
- Look out for Codexes - they're easy experience - some collectibles grant XP when picked up, which comes in handy early on.
- Items can drop from destructible objects - destroying scattered rubbish can reward you with useful resources.
- Don't choose Mage on your first playthrough - Mage is a rather challenging class, which we discourage using during your first playthrough.
- Save your game often, especially before story choices - use the flexible save system to test out different dialogue options and choices.
- Some rooms are hidden and invisible on the map - explore all locations carefully so that you don't miss any secrets or collectibles.
- Don't ignore companion quests - ignoring companion quests can cause them to expire and lock you out of their personal storyline.
- Try to have at least one synergy between companions - make sure your party's abilities synergise.
- Have a companion with a healing ability - healing will keep you alive during dangerous encounters.
- Destroy barriers with ranged attacks and armor with heavy attacks - special health bars can be quickly depleted with specific attacks.
