How to Romance Characters in Dragon Age: The Veilguard
Following are the methods to make progress in building a good relationship unless a companion has the Hardened effect, which can slow things down. You can get a sense of how your companions feel about you by checking their approval status, which is indicated by an icon below their bond level.
1. Talk to your companion
Have conversations with your companion no matter if your preferred companion is at your party or not. Make sure to visit them in the Lighthouse between quests. This way you won’t miss any time-sensitive conversations or quests that might be available.
2. Your dialogues
When you’re talking to other NPCs, your dialogue choices and responses can affect how your companion feels about you. So, you should keep their personalities in mind.
3. Choose the romantic dialogue options
When talking with the companion you want to romance, always go for the choices marked with a red heart. These options are typically supportive or flirty and will help strengthen your relationship with your companion.
4. Buy gifts for your companion
Make sure to buy gifts for your companion. This will unlock a quest where you need to give your gift to the corresponding companion in the Lighthouse.
5. Keep your companion in your party during quests
Keep your companion in your party during quests. This not only helps strengthen your bond with them but it will also make them more powerful in combat. It also gives you more opportunities for conversations that can increase their affection for you.
6. Complete companion quests
Complete companion quests as soon as you receive them. So that you do not forget or miss a great chance to strengthen your relationship. Finishing these quests will help deepen your bond and romance. If you complete all the quests, you’ll unlock their Hero of the Veilguard boost as well.
You’ll eventually face a choice with any companions, you’ve been flirting with, where you can either shut down any possibility of romance or keep the door open. While keeping the option open doesn’t guarantee a romantic relationship later, choosing to turn it down completely rules it out for the rest of the game. So, only choose to decline if you’re sure you don’t want to pursue it further.
