How to romance a companion in Dragon Age The Veilguard

When interacting with or speaking to a companion, you’ll sometimes get a reply option that is marked with a pink heart. This essentially means that the option is considered a flirtatious dialogue option and will increase your romantic favor with that companion. There’s no limit on the amount of flirting you can do in Dragon Age The Veilguard—in fact, you can essentially flirt with all seven companions if you want to. As you bond with each companion grows, you can check their specific page on the Companions screen to see the level of your relationship with them, located on the left side of the screen.

A heart icon indicates that specific companion has reached the bond level where they are ready to take things to the next level. They will approach you and make the offer to become an exclusive couple. You can only begin this actual relationship status with a single companion; no throuples here! However, the decision is not permanent. If you change your mind and wnat to romance a different companion, simply talk to the companion and indicate that you want to break up. When you are officially dating a companion, their icon for their bond level with you on the Companion screen will instead be two overlapping hearts.

Each companion has varying stages of bond level with Rook, with some companions being seemingly easier to romance than others. Because reaching the heart status with a companion is not exclusive, you should do what you can to increase the bond level with each of the seven companions to try and acheive the heart, that way if you ever decide to puruse the exclusive romantic relationship with them, you will have that option. The best way to increase your bond level with companions is chat with them and choose any dialogue options with the heart icon. Most of these interactions take place at the Lighthouse in between your adventures, so always make sure to exhause all dialogue options with any characters you have a romantic interest in when at the Lighthouse. If you really want to focus on romancing a companion, make sure you add them to your party as often as possible to increase the amount you converse with them.
