Dragon Age: The Veilguard - How To Recruit All Companions
Dragon Age: The Veilguard leads you to all sorts of locations in an effort to avert disaster. Of course, you don't have to go all by your lonesome, as there are allies that are willing to lend a hand. Here's our guide on how to recruit all companions in Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
How to recruit all companions in Dragon Age: The Veilguard
All seven companions in Dragon Age: The Veilguard are recruited as part of campaign progression. Don't worry since no one is missable. As such, our guide mostly discusses when they do join your ragtag group of heroes and their unique exploration perks.
Note: Almost all characters belong to an existing faction. Completing a companion's quest can sometimes increase their respective faction's strength (i.e. your reputation).
Lace Harding
- Faction: Inquisition
- Region: N/A
- Class: Rogue
- Race: Dwarf
- Exploration perk: Can cause stone slabs to move or rise
- Joins during quest: The End of the Beginning
Harding joins you just a few minutes after starting the campaign. A member of the now-defunct Inquisition, she's also one of Varric's closest allies.
Neve Gallus
- Faction: Shadow Dragons
- Region: Dock Town
- Class: Mage
- Race: Human
- Exploration perk: Can activate wards and interact with spirit echoes
- Joins during quest: The End of the Beginning
Similar to Harding, Neve becomes a party member early in the game. This frost mage happens to be an investigator who solves crimes in Dock Town. Note that you may have some trouble with Neve depending on your decision in the On Blighted Wings/On Deadly Wings quest.
Bellara Lutare
- Faction: Veil Jumpers
- Region: Arlathan Forest
- Class: Mage
- Race: Elf
- Exploration perk: Can interact with elven devices
- Joins during quest: In Entropy's Grasp
After the group reaches the Lighthouse, you're tasked with returning to Arlathan Forest. This is when you'll meet Bellara, an inventor/tinkerer who can repair elven devices.
Lucanis Dellamorte
- Faction: Antivan Crows
- Region: Treviso
- Class: Rogue
- Race: Human
- Exploration perk: Can create phantasmal platforms
- Joins during quest: Sea of Blood
Lucanis has been imprisoned in an underwater facility bound by magic, and it's up to you to free him. This expert assassin happens to be possessed by a demon named Spite as well. Note that just like Neve, Lucanis plays a role in the On Blighted Wings/On Deadly Wings quest.
Davrin
- Faction: Grey Wardens
- Region: Hossberg Wetlands
- Class: Warrior
- Race: Elf
- Exploration perk: Can call on griffon to destroy blight abscesses and drop hanging crates
- Joins during quest: A Warden's Best Friend
A member of the vaunted Grey Wardens, Davrin takes care of a griffon named Assan. Together, they make a formidable duo in battle.
Emmrich
- Faction: Mourn Watch
- Region: Necropolis Halls
- Class: Mage
- Race: Human
- Exploration perk: Can call on spirit wisps and commune with the dead
- Joins during quest: Where the Dead Must Go
Emmrich has a cheerful disposition. Funnily enough, he's a necromancer who also fears death. Then again, he does have a skeletal assistant named Mannfred.
Taash
- Faction: Lords of Fortune
- Region: Rivain Coast/Hall of Valor
- Class: Warrior
- Race: Qunari
- Exploration perk: Can light braziers and burn down red crystals
- Joins during quest: The Dragon Slayer
The mighty Taash joins fairly late in the campaign, but they're one of the most reliable teammates in a fight, especially if you need a melee powerhouse.
That does it for our guide on how to recruit companions in Dragon Age: The Veilguard. Now that you know when these characters join your squad, you might want to check our guides on companion romances and the Hero of the Veilguard rewards.
