Visual Glitch After Patch3
Hello, after downloading patch 3 I have been encountering this weird visual glitch that wasn't happening before. I have tried playing around with my graphic settings, but nothing seems to get rid of it, but also I am no expert of these things, so there might be something I missed. I've been playing on Medium settings and have no ray tracing on. I noticed that duing the first part of the game, the glitch seemed to be connected to Varric somehow, but I haven't found a point of origin for the Lighthouse, althought it seems to happen only in the library and right outside the doors. I didn't experience this glitch before patch3. I have at the moment encountered this glitch at the beginning of the game and inside the lightouse - I had a quick check with the other maps and it seems the glitch does not appear there (Hossberg Wetlands, Dock Town, Arlathan Forest, Treviso, Rivain Coast, The Hall of Honor, and Crossroads). Thank you in advance to anyone able and willing to help.Solved110Views2likes3Comments
Arrows Self-Depleting
Playing a rogue and my arrows are depleting themselves in battle. It seems like every time I do a regular attack it uses up an arrow. This started yesterday out of nowhere. I've restarted the game several times and it persists. I am constantly getting "low on arrows" and "out of arrows" across my screen even though I'm not using any arrows. And then when I actually do want to use an arrow, I can't because my quiver has been fully depleted for no reason.Solvedmayalew117 days agoSeasoned Newcomer66Views0likes3Comments
Bug Report: Companion Abilities Disappearing From Menu When Changing Them
Hello! I just began to have a problem when I went to change some of Davrin's abilities from the default ones to ones that provided more utility for my party. However, after I had selected three new ones, I soon went into combat and when I pulled up the quick menu to select one of his abilities, they weren't there. There were no icons in the ability slots for me to select. This is what I see: For context, I am playing on PC. I have changed companion abilities in the past without an issue, so I am unsure what could be causing this problem. I am currently on Davrin's quest in the Deep Roads, if that's helpful information. Thank you so much for your help! (dear any devs who see this, I love this game so much, it is literally everything I have waited ten years for and MORE. I'm so **bleep** grateful you were able to make this game. thank you i love you. hugs and kisses, seth)Solvedguildenstern698 days agoNew Rookie44Views0likes1CommentCannot Enter Treviso Cafe for quest
When doing partners in a dangerous crime quest, I get to the part where I am supposed to find the next clue in the Treviso Cafe, which I have been in before, but the door leading to the cafe is closed now and will not reopen to let me in. This is preventing me from completing the quest. I have already tried restarting the game and leaving the map and returning to force the map to reload, but I am still running into this same issue.SolvedClanecc10 days agoSeasoned Newcomer401Views0likes1Comment
Treasure Chest In Arlathan Crater That Is Impossible To Reach
There is a treasure chest in Sanctum Halls, in Arthalan Crater that is impossible to reach. It shows up on the map, but I have literally been over every single inch of the area and it is not possible to reach it. Since it appears on the map, usually indicating a treasure of at least some reasonable value/importance, it makes no sense it is inaccessible. Here is where the chest shows up on the map, I highlighted it with a red oval around it: This is how the interior of Sanctum Halls appears: Arthalan Crater is a location that is only temporarily accessible and your party cannot return to this location once it is complete. So, it isn't one of those "you gain access to it later" situations since you can never return. I'm not sure if it was a chest that was meant to be placed somewhere and just got left in an inaccessible location, or if access to the chest was meant to be implemented and was never put in place, but, regardless, it is impossible to reach it currently.SolvedCorlainValez11 days agoSeasoned Traveler2KViews0likes2Comments
Whenever I travel to the Necropolis Halls, my game crashes
I've played 16 hours of the game so far but have never been to the Necropolis Halls. Everything has worked absolutely flawlessly, with all graphic settings on "high." I decided it was finally time to do the quest to get Emmerich but I am unable to travel to the Necropolis Halls without the game suddenly shutting down without any kind of error message. I've tried reducing all settings to the lowest possible. I've tried restarting everything, making sure the program is updated, and even slept on it and tried again 24 hours later. Every single time, as consistent as the sun rising, I choose my party, click the go button, see the purple "saving/loading rune" on black, and then the program closes and I'm greeted by my desktop. Any tips for how to troubleshoot would be greatly appreciated. I'm happy to share any information, but I don't know what would be relevant. I've never encountered an issue like this before. Can't wait to finally see what the necropolis looks like!Solved75040adc363fa58411 days agoRising Novice83Views0likes1Comment
Trophy bug on PS5
I'm 80 hours into the game and checking the trophy list I just realised that the main story trophy "Part 3: Awakening" hasn't unlocked for me. Are they gonna fix this? I even tried to uninstall and install the game again and load an old save to play again the scene where Bellara fixes the Eluvian, which is when the trophy should pop up right after the cutscene ends, and it still won't unlock. Idk what to do.SolvedJerinCrowe12 days agoSeasoned Novice233Views2likes6Comments
Can't use dodge/roll on PC at the beginning of every battle.
Hey EA, can you fix this bug (clearly a bug just searching once on google) which is permanent since two days ago, two days! This definitely makes the game ridiculous to me because I can't dodge any attack, losing a normal battle against some weak enemy. I play on PC. keyboard, hardwired. Is like I play cs and I cant shoot because... I think you got the idea.SolvedPrometeuB13 days agoSeasoned Novice107Views1like6Comments
Cutscene Skips @ the end of Ice & Fire, breaks main quest progression.
The cutscene with the gang seated and talking at The Lighthouse won't initialize- After meeting with the Wardens & allies following the dragon fight, I simply appear in the lighthouse without my journal being updated which locks me out of any quest progress. Additional information- I'm playing from the steam account ObstreperousDichotomy Platform is through Steam, on PC I've tried reloading earlier saves, catching up on an alternate playthrough to this point, as well as trying various alternate party loadouts as well as things like not finishing other quests before this one (Such as Heart of Corruption). All of this resulted in the same issue.SolvedZenogod13 days agoSeasoned Novice135Views1like4Comments
Surfaces are sparkling (and it's weird)
The bug is the title. I had several surfaces throughout the game sparkle, some more than others. It's not impacting the gameplay but is really distracting. I also guess that most of those surfaces should not sparkle in the first place. Game graphics settings are as shown in the screenshot. Bug shown in a short screen capture.

I'm stuck and can't progress on the main story line because I can't get my companions to use their abilities by issuing a command on the companion wheel. I press TAB and then click on the companion icon that has a magnifying glass on it. I am told that the companion has the ability to perform the action, however even though a green check mark appears indicating that my click has been registered, there is still no response and the wheel remains open. I have tried loading an earlier save and recruiting a different companion and it still does not work.

Unequipping Items When There's No Other To Choose

I finished Neve's personal quest and got the popp up about her being a hero of veilguard but the armor doesn't show up in the inventory and her skill doesn't unlock in the skilltree. I choose Treviso, but the Shadow Dragon reputation is maxed out even with the penalty. She is lvl 9. I don't use any mods and I play it through Steam. The other companions were fine, they got everything as they should have. Is this a bug or another consequence of the Treviso choice?

Possible bug with Neve and Lucanis’ ‘Hero of the Veilguard’ status
Hi there, I’m not 100% sure if this is a bug or not because I can’t find the information online however after choosing between Traviso or Minrathos and either Neve or Lucanis become hardened. It seems like whoever is hardened never gets their ‘hero of the veilguard’ status. Even after completing all of their personal quests.

I play on PC through Steam, and play on the recommended display/graphics preset (the high preset). I have downloaded the most recent patch and drivers, of which, I've verified my files and reinstalled the drivers incase that was causing the issue. My specs are, Cpu - AMD Ryzen 9 5900x, Gpu - Nvidia Geforce RTX 3060, Memory - Corsair Vengeance 32gb DDR4-3600mhz CL18, Storage - Samsung 980 Pro 2TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME. Attached below are videos showing the technical issue/bug in the armor transmog menu and in the open world (Minrathus). Note that this issue is not exclusive to these examples and is primarily noticeable in cutscenes and can happen at any point during gameplay. Hoping to figure this one out so I can enjoy the cosmetics as they are my favorite part of rpgs.SolvedAkioTheSaber17 days agoSeasoned Newcomer262Views1like4Comments
PS5 controller issues on PC
Some very weird bugs are making the game unplayable for me using PS5 controller on PC. These are all repeatable and persist regardless of anything I've tried: Bug: Settings menu: Can't progress beyond second tab because the game reads R1 input as cancel and exits settings. It reads the first R1 input correctly and changes to the second tab but also must be triggering reset button because a pop-up appears asking if I'm sure I want to reset all settings to default everytime. Workaround: Cycle through settings tabs using L1 instead of R1. Bug: Hovering over equipment or abilities in the equipment or companion screens instantly makes the tool tip disappear. Tool tip stops functioning. Workaround: Hover cursor over class info which somehow brings the tool tip back displaying skill/gear info until window is closed/changed and bug repeats. Bug: Choosing "change" / X button on any skill or piece of gear on companion screen does not work, period. Workaround: None really. I have to unplug my controller. Change equipment via keyboard +mouse, save and exit game, plug my controller back in to regain controller input, and restart the game. Bug: Warrior shield throw ability (R2) only works if I'm moving, this includes holding to charge and releasing shield. Workaround: None Bug: Press any button screen upon launch, only pressing a directional stick in any direction is accepted as an input. All other inputs won't work. Workaround: None I've tried disabling and enabling steam input. Updated controller firmware to latest. Restarted PC. Using DSX in native and virtual modes as well as disabling DSX. Controller is plugged in. I have three PS5 controllers and bugs persist on all three.SolvedTransGamerGirl717 days agoSeasoned Novice129Views1like2Comments
