If there’s one thing you should expect in Dragon Age: The Veilguard, it’s the abundance of choices when it comes to picking your class and further specialization.
Classes represent the basic archetype of your character and how they will operate inside the game. Specializations add deeper depth to your selected archetype and allow you to enjoy different playstyles. Since this selection will have huge ramifications on your entire playthrough, let’s look at all the available classes, along with their respective specializations.
All classes in Dragon Age: The Veilguard
Here’s the complete information you’ll need before you jump into Dragon Age: The Veilguard. There are three specific classes: Mage, Rogue, and Warrior. While the three classes act and react differently, their respective specializations will allow for greater customization.
Class | Sub-class | Abilities | Faction |
---|---|---|---|
Mage | Death Caller | Necromancy | Mourn Watch |
Mage | Evoker | Elemental Magic | Shadow Dragons |
Mage | Spellblade | Magical melee attacks | Antivan Crows |
Rogue | Duelist | Rapid strikes with dual blades and reliance on dodge abilities | Antivan crows |
Rogue | Saboteur | Uses custom traps and tricks | Lords of Fortune |
Rogue | Veil Ranger | Ranged attacks | Veil Jumpers |
Warrior | Champion | Absorbs huge amounts of damage and uses a sword and shield | Grey Wardens |
Warrior | Reaper | Relies on health steal, and uses it in attacks | Mourn Watch |
Warrior | Slayer | Very slow unit that does insane damage with double-handed weapons | Lords of Fortune |
Which is the best class and specialization for Dragon Age: The Veilguard?
Honestly, this entirely depends on how you want to play and enjoy the game. This isn’t a multiplayer experience like Call of Duty Black Ops 6 where you’ll want to exploit the meta. However, here are my top three recommendations.
- The Death Caller specialization will be my firm favorite because raising the undead to do your bidding is on whole another level.
- Saboteur might be the hardest Rogue sub-class in my books, but killing enemies with traps is unique.
- Reaper, because Champion is boring and Slayer is slow.
But in the end, there’s no wrong choice, and just go with how you want to play.
