For Gold And Glory Walkthrough In Dragon Age: The Veilguard


For Gold And Glory is a quest you’ll find on the beautiful, exotic Rivain Coast of Dragon Age: The Veilguard. It’s where the Lords of Fortune, including Taash set up their base, though Taash is not mandatory for this mission. It sees you recovering supplies for the Antivan Crows on behalf of the Lords of Fortune.

However, it’s less about finding the supplies and more about defeating the Antaam who are guarding them at various locations. For this reason, we suggest taking Taash and Lucanis. Both have a narrative link to the quest, but also their Fire and Necrotic damage is highly effective against the foes you fight, and they can trigger Detonations via combos too. It’s like Rook might as well not even be there…

Taash is mostly there as it’s their home, but they are useful in a fight. As long as its not Bellara, whose Electric Abilities are Resisted by Antaam, you’re fine.

Defeat The Antaam

The first set of Antaam you face are a trio. There are two Valotaar, which are just brutes, and God-Touched Valotarr, who is the same but with harder hitting strikes. Deflect their attacks and use Necrotic Abilities to make short work of them. A bigger issue is the Taaralok, who makes the trio into a quartet, and is a ranged Antaam with Armor.

Taaralok is mostly a nuisance. He can disrupt your fight against the three thugs going face to face while keeping his distance. Using Taash’s Fire Abilities, any Rook Abilities that destroy Armor, and Charged Heavy attacks, you should rush the Taaralok first. If you’re too far away, ranged headshots will also work.

Defeat The Reaver

Once you have dealt enough damage to the God-Touched Valotaar, a Reaver appears. This becomes the biggest threat and it is imperative you get rid of the Taaralok so you can focus on the Reaver. It charges around the arena with unstoppable, devastating attacks and you will need to dodge quickly.

When the Reaver appears, you need to focus on thinning out the herd. Taking down a Reaver takes a while, so you don’t want other enemies getting in the way. Since the Reaver is predictable (it follows you and charges), keep moving and doge inwards or outward to avoid it, and take out the other Antaam.

When you have the Reaver alone, using Taash’s Abilities to apply Burning will help you whittle it down while attacking when it takes rare breaks – just get ready to dodge again afterwards. Search the Crow bodies in the corner when the fight is over to discover the second location, where the supply cache (and more Antaam) are waiting.

Find The Supply Cache

Cutting through a Rivaini cave to the shore in Dragon Age The Veilguard

Head through the ruins and follow the marker as they lead you across the ledge and outside to the the shore, then dip back in and vault over the wall. Follow the passage outside and to slide down the hill to the next combat arena.

If you have unlocked the Dragon Beach Fast Travel Beacon, you can also just use this.

You’ll interrupt the Antaam performing some pest control on the local wildlife, which clues you into the new form of Antaam you’ll be fighting: Anadar. These have flamethrowers, though they remain resistant to Electric damage, not Fire, so Taash can still eviscerate them.

How To Defeat The Anadar

Rush the closest Anadar to you as you enter with a Charged Heavy attack. Keep hitting it with regular Heavy attacks until the Armor goes down – these enemies take a while to get their flamethrower ready, so you can drop this one before it starts. Once the Armor is down, it will soon be Staggered, where you can perform a Takedown.

That then leaves you with two Anadar and one Valotaar, but the Anadar’s flamethrowers give them such large coverage that they should be the priority. Taash can take down their Armor (ideally with a combo with Lucanis), just be aware that if you rush them, you need to dodge quickly if the other one arrives.

The arena here is large enough that you should keep your distance where you can, especially as the Anadar have a much greater reach. Abilities and ranged attacks will help, although Armor are best dealt with by Charged Heavy attacks, so you may need to risk it when an opening appears.

Recover The Supplies

After all of the enemies have been cleared out, head to the back of the arena and climb up the rocks. Continue along the river until the steps, then jump to the podium with the log on it. Go along the branch and continue around left until you reach the Clifftops.

Drop down, then head around to the waterfall and find a note in the pool at the bottom. This sends you to your final location, where you’ll need to go away from the waterfall and around the cliff you just jumped off, back to the river and the podium with the branch. This time, go up and go right.

This takes you to some castle ruins, so make your way through and head out the exit on the right at back, up the stairs to the zipline. Take the zipline across to the Warden Castle, and inside you will fight your penultimate wave of Antaam.

You will face four Valotaar, including some with hammers that charge. However, they should be dealt with in the same away as before, with Necrotic Abilities and Burning condition, as well as Heavy attacks and Takedowns when Staggered.

Defeat Penshanek The Blood Eater

Head through the Castle Ruins, out into the rocky walls and around the corner at the back (it can be tough to see in the dark, but run to the back wall then turn left). Outside, you will face the final boss of the quest: Penshanek the Blood Eater.

At first glance, Penshanek is not too difficult. It has no Armor or Barrier, just a very chunky health bar, so powerful Necrotic Abilities and any high-damage or status inflicting Abilities work well too. The issue is how crowded things are.

The Castle Bailey area is more cramped than Rivain’s other spaces, and Penshanek has two Anadar, a Valotaar, and a Taaralok helping him. Take out the Taaralok first with Charged ranged attacks and Abilities, then focus on eroding the Anadar Armors with Detonation, and rush the Valotaar with Heavy attacks.

Any Abilities with a large Area of Effect will be very useful here.

When that’s done, think of Penshanek as a big Valotar. Dodge away when he glows red, and drive in with Heavy attacks to Stagger quickly. When that’s done, free the Antivan Crow locked up in the corner and the quest will be complete.
