Dragon Age: The Veilguard – Comprehensive Murder of Crows Walkthrough

“Dragon Age: The Veilguard”offers an intricate world filled with quests and missions, where players can delve into multiple storylines to achieve a 100% completion. Among these narratives, the journey of Lucanis introduces players to the “A Murder of Crows”quest, where you assist him in liberating the Antivan Crows from Venatori oppression and confronting Illario, Lucanis’ cousin.

Mission Overview: Rescuing Caterina

Caterina, regarded as the First Talon of the Antivan Crows, is central to your mission. The adventure begins at the Cantori Diamond in Treviso, where you will partner with Lucanis to strategize her rescue. As you advance, ensure you eliminate all Venatori that cross your path. After the initial skirmish, prepare for another encounter with a second wave of enemies shortly thereafter.

Continue to follow the quest marker until you arrive at the Villa Dellamorte; its significance is highlighted by a cutscene where Lucanis identifies it as the next objective. Be prepared for yet another engagement with more Venatori on your way to the villa. After clearing this group, proceed to the secret entrance of Dellamorte Cellar, dispatch the guards, and ascend the stairs leading to Dellamorte Estates.

Confronting Illario: Tips for Victory

Upon reaching the large door where Caterina is held, defeat the guard to enter and trigger a cutscene. Shortly thereafter, you will engage Illario himself. It’s essential to note that Illario has a particular vulnerability to cold attacks, so utilize Lucanis’ special abilities for an edge in this battle. Before you face Illario, take down any remaining Venatori guards.

Maximize your effectiveness by employing attack combos while coordinating with Lucanis. Stay nimble and evade Illario’s assaults to gain the upper hand. Once he is defeated, the narrative provides you with a pivotal choice: to either spare Illario or imprison him.

Consequences of Your Choice

If you opt to imprison Illario, Lucanis will gain the “Demon of Defiance”(Veilguard Skill) and “Crow’s Tenacity”(Heroic Armor). Alternatively, should you choose mercy, you will receive “Demon of Rebellion”(Veilguard Skill) and “Crow’s Poise”(Heroic Armor). Regardless of your decision, the quest concludes with Caterina endorsing Lucanis as the new First Talon.

Additionally, completing this quest alongside Lucanis enhances his approval rating, thereby increasing the prospects for a potential romance between your character and him in future gameplay.
