Should You Bring Back Manfred Or Let Emmrich Become A Lich In Dragon Age: The Veilguard

Emmrich is a Necromancer who belongs to the Mourn Watch Faction in Dragon Age: The Veilguard. Upon completing all of his companion quests, Rook must help Emmrich make an important decision during The Sacrifice of Souls quest.




Thankfully, the choice does not change the ending or affect any of the endgame content, unlike other decisions in Dragon Age: The Veilguard. After the big fight, where Manfred makes the ultimate sacrifice, Rook must choose carefully whether Emmrich brings back Manfred or becomes a Lich.

In short, players should choose whatever they want as it doesn’t affect the ending. If it doesn’t matter, letting Emmrich become a Lich is a slightly better choice thanks to the legendary armor abilities he obtains. On the other hand, if you care about Manfred and prefer to have him in the Lighthouse, then tell Emmrich to bring him back. Emmrich will agree to whatever you choose and won’t voice any serious regrets later on in the game.

Bringing Manfred back means Emmrich loses the chance of becoming a Lich, which is quite a bummer considering he was very excited about becoming one, as he’s afraid of death. On the bright side, Manfred will be revived and will accompany Emmrich back to the Lighthouse, where the skeleton will start learning a few sentences and some necromancy skills.

At the end of the quest, Emmrich obtains the Graven Vestments, legendary armor which grants the Necromancer Invulnerable and allows him to deal 50% more detonation damage at low health. He also gains the Life’s Embrace skill. If you are romancing Emmrich, you can have an interesting conversation about mortality.

Emmrich finally achieves his dream of becoming a Lich and gaining immortality, but at the cost of Manfred. The friendly skeleton will disappear forever and Emmrich’s appearance will change to a skeleton. This will unlock a special scene where the rest of the companions react to his new looks.

The new legendary armor he obtains, Lich’s Vestige, applies Quietus after detonating a Sundered enemy and if the enemy already has Necrosis or Quietus, deals +200 Necrotic damage. The Necromancer also obtains the Death’s Caress skill. If Rook is in a serious relationship with Emmrich, be warned, as his appearance will change during any romantic scene.
