The Veilguard mod allows you to romance hardened Lucanis

Early game spoilers for Dragon Age: The Veilguard below

summary

  • Dragon Age: Veilguard modders have romanced Lukanis no matter what, even if he's hardened.

  • This came after fans were disappointed that she was the only companion who could stop their romance through an in-game choice.

  • This mod works by using dialogues that are already in the game files and indicate that this path was once intended.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard allows you to bond with any companion, regardless of your character's gender or background. However, if you make an early game decision in the story, you can override one of them.

After recruiting Davrin, you return to the lighthouse and are told that dragons are attacking Treviso and Docktown. Rook can only be in one location and you get the lightest location wherever you choose to defend. Since Lucanis and Neo are from Treviso and Docktown respectively, depending on who is saved, their perspective changes and the one who fights alone becomes “tougher”.

Veilguard would have been a much stronger game if it had broken the Dragon Age tradition.

In practice, this means that it will take longer to gain their approval in the future, and they won't be able to use support abilities in combat. However, for some reason, there is a conclusion that is unique to Lukanis: he will no longer be a romantic option.

Over at Nexus Mods, the Lucanis Romance Project team has shared their own Hardened Lucanis Romance. As the name suggests, Lucanis will prevent you from shooting if Treviso burns, thus making him tough.

Oddly enough, it seems that Lucanis romance was not always intended to end in this way. The team says the mod works by using cut content made specifically for Lucanis hardened romances. We can see some of them in the mod previews, where Lukanis changes his dialogue after Docktown is saved in Treviso.

Of course, this is only useful if you're playing on PC. BioWare doesn't seem interested in adding this route officially, and we know there won't be DLC.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard is available for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
