How to get the Mass Effect armor in Dragon Age: The Veilguard?

If you’re a hardcore fan of the Mass Effect series, then you might find an unexpected bit of joy in Dragon Age: The Veilguard.

Developers BioWare has added two new outfits to the game as part of the latest update (both available for Rook), and it’s heavily inspired by the N7 design. Such is the resemblance that any lover of EA’s sci-fi series will be immediately able to relate to the new armor. Moreover, this outfit is available for all, and it can be found directly inside the game.

How to obtain the Mass Effect armor in Dragon Age: The Veilguard

Obtaining the new outfit is pretty straightforward, but you will have to clear a fair bit of the main campaign. In fact, the quest for “The Singing Blade” must be completed, as it takes Rook to Scout Harding to search for the Lyrium Knife. First, find the missing knife dropped by Solas, and you’ll be able to gain access to the Lighthouse and Caretaker’s Workshop.

• Go to the Lighthouse.
• Travel to the yard.
• Walk towards the Caretaker’s Workshop.
• Locate the vendor, and you’ll find a chest. Open it to grab your copy of the Mass Effect armor.

You’ll get three unique-looking items from the chest:

• Command Helmet
• Specter of Battles Past
• Paragon of Leadership.

Once you’ve added these items to your inventory, you’ll be able to change into them from your wardrobe. I love the fact that the designs aren’t a direct copy of how they appeared in Mass Effect games. BioWare has kept the vintage threads and the color code alive, but the design has been modified to fit well into the lore of Dragon Age: The Veilguard.

As of this writing, there doesn’t appear to be an expiration date for these rewards. However, there’s no point in dilly-dallying, and you should redeem the outfits as early as possible.
