The second part is to chat with Emmrich and get to know him better. Emmrich is a devoted necromancer who respects the dead and believes that souls who return from death retain elements of themselves. During your conversations with Emmrich, always support your beliefs. Never mock the dead, never disrespect necromancy, and never show disgust at what it does, and if you are part of the Mourn Watcher faction, choose the Mourn Watch dialog option every time. These are sometimes only available behind the question mark icon at the bottom of the dialog wheel, so be sure to double-check all your choices before committing. Make sure to choose the option with a heart icon whenever it appears as well.

Emmrich is also a gentle and caring man who dislikes violence as a method of problem solving and appreciates when people show compassion towards each other. Keep this in mind when Emmrich is present while you make certain choices, such as how to deal with the Prime Guardian during the Weishaupt mission.

If you complete Emmrich’s quests and show him kindness in conversations, you’ll have no trouble quickly garnering his affection, even if you make choices he disapproves of. If you think this is not the case, you can tackle the Nevarra faction questsas Restless Spirits, with Emmrich as companion. Completing the objectives during these quests also increases Emmrich’s approval rating, although this is not necessary to romance him.

After the House of the Dead in Emmrich’s personal questline, you should have the option to start an event conversation with Emmrich in his room. During this dialogue, Emmrich will say: “Especially if he/she/they have shown unexpected interest in a new companion. » You have four answers.

The third part of romance with Emmrich involves buying her a gift. You can purchase Emmrich’s Gift – the Haunted Statuette – from Vorgoth the Merchant in the Nevarra Necropolis Hall. The merchant spirit can be found in the center of the Necropolis starting area, where you rang the bell during Where the Dead Must Go, and the statuette costs 60 gold and 10 flawless crystals.

Buying it automatically starts the quest “Worthy for a Necromancer” and all you have to do is speak with Emmrich to give him the gift and end this quest.

How to complete Emmrich’s personal quest in Dragon Age The Veilguard

The fourth part of Emmrich’s romance is his quest for a mate. Emmrich’s personal quest explores the necromancer’s relationship with life and death, his greatest fears, and the fate of his reanimated skeletal servant Manfred. The first part should be available once you complete Where the Dead Must Go and return to the Lighthouse. However, at least two optional conversations with Emmrich become available at the same time. You should also participate in this, but you will have to leave the lighthouse and return to force each event and then the quest to appear.

The first quest is Browse the gravesan “exit” mission. This is a calm, casual quest, with no combat, in which you and Emmrich complete simple tasks and get to know each other better. His second quest takes time, House of the Deadto unlock, though. You’ll need to complete the first act – which ends with the Siege of Weishaupt – then either the Cobbled Swan or On Deadly Wings, depending on which city you chose to help earlier in the game. When you return to the lighthouse after that , you should be able to start the House of the Dead, although you may have to leave the lighthouse and return several times like before.

Emmrich’s quests naturally require you to take him with you. If you’re playing as Death Caller, we recommend equipping non-necrotic skills for this one. The Darkspawn that appear have necrotic resistance, so between your skills and Emmrich’s, you’ll be at a significant disadvantage if you don’t branch out. Bring someone like Davrin or Taash as a second companion, so they can take advantage of your enemies’ fire weaknesses. If you can’t decide how to build a non-Death Caller mage, check out our Mage build guide and our Evoker build guide.

After this quest, it’s an opportunity to express romantic interest in Emmrich. Just make sure you don’t choose “Let’s stay friends.”

Arrangements is Emmrich’s next personal release. It should become available after completing the Fire and Ice main quest – but again, you may need to leave the lighthouse and return to make the icon appear – and it’s an important moment in your relationship. Choose “Never Alone” when Emmrich says “What would they have wanted me to be?” » and you will lock yourself into a committed romance with the necromancer. This means you can’t romance anyone else for the rest of the game.

The Sacrifice of Souls is another suitable side quest, in which you and Emmrich continue to search for Hezenkoss’ lantern after the encounter with the rogue necromancer during the House of the Dead. The undead enemies in this quest and the final boss are all weak to necrotic spells, so keep that in mind when deciding which skills to equip.

The final part of Emmrich’s quest is Will and Testament, and you have an important choice to make during it that determines Emmrich’s Veilguard ability. Without getting into spoilers, the choice comes down to whether Emmrich completes a personal transformation or chooses to save Manfred. If you let Emmrich transform, he learns a skill that causes all of his abilities to inflict necrosis and increase the damage of each ally’s status attacks. If he saves Manfred, he gains an ability that increases the party’s damage dealt when Rook is at low health – the state in which the screen takes on a red tint.

Enjoy your time with Emmrich!
