The Following Article Contains Spoilers Regarding The Choices Made In Isle Of The Gods Quest In Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
Before choosing Davrin or Harding, you must know thatwhoever is chosen will die. It doesn’t matter if players havecompleted all of their companions' questsand made them Hero of the Veilguard,the character will sacrifice themselveslater onwhen facing Ghilan’nain.
Harding will succeed in leading the distraction but meets her end when players are facing Ghilan’nain. She will be missed dearly by the rest of the companions and will be unavailable for the rest of the gameplay. This means youwon’t be able to add her to the team,use her newfound abilities, ortalk with her after going back to the Lighthouse.
Naturally,if Rook is romancing Harding, then you obviously can’t pursue itanymore. Additionally, you must make crucial decisions later on involving your companions during the Last Gambit, andHarding fits many categories but will be unavailable. For the sake of the storytelling, you’re able to choose Harding as a way for her to redeem herself for the timeshe couldn’t stop Solas at the beginning of the game, as this failure always haunted her thoughts.
Same as Harding, Davrin will buy players some time when facing Ghilan’nain by sacrificing himself. Also, if that isn’t bad enough,Assan will also sacrifice himself, so keep that in mind. As a warrior, Davrin is a DPS that deals decent damage with the correct equipment. So, choosing Davrin meansyou lose his abilities,can’t chat with him back at the Lighthouse, andcan’t romance him either. Most importantly,Rook will lose Assan’s company, which means no more petting, playing, or hugging the griffon.
As Taash can fulfill Davrin’s role later on when sending companions to complete certain missions, players can choose Davrin if they prefer Harding. If you are interested in storytelling, you can choose Davrin and consider his sacrifice part of his heroic nature, as Davrin is a Grey Warden and a skilled monster hunter.
