10 things I wish I knew when I started Dragon Age: The Veilguard

10 things I wish I knew when I started Dragon Age: The Veilguard

Dragon Age: Guardian of the Veil is already out, this is a return to the famous BioWare series after a decade. It received pretty good reviews from critics, but now it’s in the hands of the fans and we’ll see what everyone thinks of it.

I spent 65 hours fully completing this game thanks to my review and I think I have a few tips for my journey along the way. I enjoyed the blind game, although there are a few important things I think you should know before you start. Here are ten things I wish I knew when I started. Dragon Age: Guardian of the Veil.

1) You will have more skill points than you lose weightk – I know the game makes it seem like you’ll only specialize in one type of combat, but there are fifty character levels and even more skill points with wolf puzzles on the map. So by the end, while I was, shall we say, focused on poison blades for my Rogue, between my gear and skill points I also managed to become an assassin archer. You can only choose one full specialization, but you can still become strong in other areas.

2) Merchant stores are an extremely important source of loot. – Obviously the biggest source of loot will be the 140 or so chests scattered around the map, but when you’re looking for “cheaters” to unlock rare levels and perks, you really, really need to constantly check reputation with reputation sellers. Level up factions as they will often have exactly what you are looking for to improve your build. Oh, and don’t forget to sell trash to sellers, as this will also increase your reputation.

3) Respect everyone at all times Age of the Dragon this time you get almost complete freedom. You can restore all your skill points for free at any time. But beyond that you can also change your companion’s entire skill tree, and I often kept changing their “target” skills (by the end you can fully max out two of them) to suit my own build or team synergy I was trying to achieve . do.

4) Choose the right type of primers and detonations – Speaking of coincidence, it’s not just that you have a character with a cap and another with a detonator, there are different types. So, for example, one character will have to apply the “Suppressed” debuff to an enemy as a base for it to be blown up by another character who can blow up “Shocked Enemies”. A character that blows up shattered enemies won’t work, so you need to check.

5) If the fight is tedious, you may have a low level or insufficient equipment. – I’ve seen people complain about combat where you feel weak or the enemies have too much health. I don’t want to say that “you’re playing the game wrong,” but you… are probably playing the game wrong. Some of the bosses you discover you’ll actually have to return to later unless you want to spend 35 minutes reducing their health. Regular fights with enemies shouldn’t be a huge pain. You need to level up your skill points, but more importantly, start putting together a real build, making sure to use gear with unlocked perks, as well as things that work synergistically together. It will become more and more cohesive over time.

6) Don’t freak out about inaccessible chests – It drove me crazy a few times because sometimes it seemed like it was impossible to get to the chest on the map. Sometimes it’s… impossible. If the chest puzzle seems too hard to be believable, there are indeed times when either A) you just need to go further in the level and you can go back, or B) you may have to go back later when it opens path to another quest. This may only happen 5-10% of the time, but it does happen.

7) Return to the Lighthouse often for great character moments. – Go to the Lighthouse from time to time and go into both the “time running out” rooms and the “yellow exclamation mark bubble” areas. Exclamation marks are quests themselves, but the rest can be funny conversations with your teammates or often your teammates talking to each other.

8) Take literally everything “I kind of don’t like the huge amount of crap that’s scattered around here, but you’ll need it to level up your vendors, level up your sorcerer, and improve your gear.” If you don’t get the vast majority of them, you can run out quite easily.

9) Don’t forget to enchant and keep enchanting – Enchanting a piece of equipment is free in itself, and it really is a big plus for your character overall when you do this for all of your equipment. I remind you to do this first, but also remember to keep doing it if you change your gear.

10) Complete loyalty quests – This may be pretty obvious to BioWare fans, but if you want your teammates to survive… no matter what, if you throw them into the fire without reaffirming their loyalty to you, things can go badly. If you don’t care, so be it! But many of these quests are good in their own right.
