All Choices regarding Makal Damas' offer in Dragon Age The Veilguard

How to reach the choice?

Meet Neve outside the Threads' hideout in Dock Town to start the quest. After this, Elek and Cida will inform you about the abduction of its leader, Makal Damas, with the Venatori behind this ploy. Reach the market, and get rid of the Venatori Mages occupying it.

After thoroughly scouting the location to find three chests and a Dream-Inspired Statue Memento, proceed ahead. After moving through the door, the crew finds Damas under Aelia's influence. Defeat the boss to free him from the possession, and he will offer you help to take down Bataris. Rook can accept or refuse Makal Damas's offer in Dragon Age The Veilguard.

Your decision after a previous quest, 'A Warden's Best Friend' affects the nature of this quest. If you choose to help Minrathous, the fight against Damas appears as a companion questline. However, if you help Treviso, it appears as part of the main questline.

While this quest will have choices that will influence the following quests, it doesn't feature something that will have a major impact on Neve's questline. For example, making the final choice in Neve's concluding quest 'The Returned Cultist Case' — To Protect Dock Town or Bring It Hope, will not be affected by the decisions made during 'The Cobbled Swan Case.'
