Getting the Best Ending in Dragon Age: The Veilguard

In order to achieve the best ending in the game, you have to indulge in Solas’ story more than usual. You can do this by locating five wolf statuettes that are spread across the Crossroads. After crossing a certain threshold in the game’s storyline, you can use the wolf statuettes to go through Solas’ backstory and explore his memories. Once you have done so, make your way to Morrigan at the Crossroads.

Morrigan will guide you towards a piece of Mythal’s spirit. Here, you can either convince Mythal to give you her power or engage in a boss fight against a Level 45 dragon. If you want to skip the fight, you will have to select the right options when talking to Mythal. Given below are the dialogue options you need to choose when talking to Mythal:

“We must stop the Blight” and “You stood against it.”
“We must stop the Gods” and “They wronged you.”
“Solas is helping us” and “Respected him.”

If you select all the right options, Mythal will grant you her essence. With that, you don’t need to do anything else. Once you reach the end of the game, you will be able to use Mythal’s essence to trigger the best ending in The Veilguard. With this ending, you unlock a secret post-credits cutscene. During this cutscene, you can see various events throughout the Dragon Age series, such as the Battle of Ostagar in Dragon Age: Origins and Corypheus’ opening of The Breach in Dragon Age: Inquisition.

The cutscene is seemingly hinting at the mysterious Executors that were first introduced in Dragon Age: Inquisition. With a hint towards the Executors along with ‘The Veilguard Remains Vigilant’ text after the cutscene, it seems like Bioware is cluing players in on where the series could head in the future.
