The threat to Thedas in Dragon Age: The Veilguard is greater than anything we’ve seen before. Solas, The Dread Wolf, is attempting to tear down the Veil, but that’s only the tip of the iceberg of problems your Rook will need to deal with. Needless to say, the odds are stacked against you and you will need to use every edge you can get to find a way to overcome the odds. While the game does offer plenty of difficulty options, learning the deeper systems and mechanics will let you compete and keep up with the difficulty as it ramps up without having to change any settings. There’s a lot to absorb when diving into this world, so we’ll help you prepare with these essential tips and tricks.
While you’re making your character, the most important choice you have is which class you will be. The three options are Warrior, Mage, and Rogue and the one you pick here is the one you will be stuck with for the rest of the game. There’s no changing classes or controlling other party members directly like in past games, so don’t take this decision lightly. If you are having trouble deciding, we can help you decide which one is right for you.

The skill trees in Dragon Age: The Veilguard are more like bushes in how branching and intertwined they are. Ideally, you will want to move toward one of the three specializations on the edges where you will get the strongest abilities and focus your build. But, thankfully, you are never committed to any build. You can refund individual or all your skill points for free at any time and redistribute them if you don’t like how your character is shaping up, want to try a different specialization, or purchase an ability that you end up disliking. You can even change up your skills to better counter certain bosses.
