The Dragon Slayer is a main quest in Dragon Age Veilguard available in the seventh chapter of the game. During this quest, you'll recruit the Qunari Taash to your party. On this guide page we describe how to help Taash put the dragon to sleep, explore the Antaam Fort and rescue the dragon after it has been put to sleep.
How to put a dragon to sleep?
The quest will begin once you travel to Rivain Coast. Taash will join you immediately after the opening cut-scene. Follow Taash - you'll fight several Antaams along the way.
At the end of the path, on the beach, you will fight a horde of enemies and a mini-boss. There are many enemies and they attack quickly, but their attacks can be parried - use the explosive barrels scattered around the arena as well as area skills. After the fight, follow Taash again until you reach a horn. Blow into it to lure the dragon.
How to explore the fort?
After eating the potion-laced food, the dragon fell asleep - you may proceed further. Climb up the rocks to the top of the waterfall and then climb up a fallen, thin tree to the very top.
As you proceed along the linear path you will encounter an Antaam ambush. Watch out for the enemy on the stairs wielding a huge cannon, and be ready to parry the projectiles. Make use of the explosive barrels scattered around the arena.
How to save the dragon?
At the end of the fort, examine the note on the floor in the room with the chest. You must go to save the dragon from the Antaams. Run out the open door, fighting enemies along the way - the enemies with shields are heavily armored, so you'll need to use charged attacks.
When you return to the beach to the sleeping dragon, you will fight another group of Antaams. Use Taash's newly acquired ability, Fire Breath, to damage multiple enemies at once. Try to take out the enemies wielding cannons first, as they can be easily missed in the heat of battle. After the fight, talk to Taash. The following cut-scene and meeting with Isabela will complete the quest.
