Branching story paths have always been a hallmark of Bioware games like Dragon Age and Mass Effect, and Dragon Age: The Veilguard is no exception. One of these player decisions can lead to a missable quest as well as its associated Achievement/Trophy ‘The Soul Of A City’.
This guide is all about how to unlock the missable Achievement/Trophy ‘The Soul Of A City’.
Point Of No Return
In order to even unlock the quest, it is necessary to elect to save Minrathous over Treviso, by agreeing to aid Neve and the Shadow Dragons. This choice is presented at the conclusion of the main quest ‘A Warden’s Best Friend’.
Ideally you will manually reserve a save before this happens, as the game will not do so automatically.
Shadow Dragons Faction Strength
In preparation for getting this trophy, work on maximizing the Faction Strength of the Shadow Dragons to the full three stars or 3200 points. This is best achieved by trading with the faction merchant. Since the very existence of the shop is based on saving Dock Town and Minrathous, try to grind this out as early as possible.
Shadow Dragons Side Quests
This series of side quests involves aiding the Shadow Dragons in Dock Town, after saving Minrathous from the High Dragon Seartooth Vyrantis.
The ‘Soul Of A City’ quest is only available if Minrathous is saved.
Next up is ‘In Memoriam’, which you get by vanquishing enemies in the Dock Town area, and then interacting with one of the corpses here. What follows is a number of short quests:
- Rituals For The Risen
- Cornered In The Catacombs
- Out Of Tune
- Mercenary Intent
- A Hidden Hoard
- The Snake Nest Deal
- Desperate In Dock Town
- Last Rites
- The Tempered Soul, Everlasting
Soul Of A City Achievement/Trophy
“Aided the Shadow Dragons in their fight to reveal the corrupted soul of Minrathous.”
The Achivement/Trophy should unlock if you have achieved both the maximum Faction Strength for the Shadow Dragons, as well as completed all the side quests in Dock Town.
That is how to unlock the missable Achievement/Trophy ‘The Soul Of A City’ in Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
