Lucanis Romance Quests

All Lucanis Companion Quests

Doing Lucanis' companion quests will significantly strengthen your bond with his. Here are all of his quests:

How to Get Hero of the Veilguard

Lucanis attains the Hero of the Veilguard status after players finish all of the Treviso Faction Quests. What Legenday Armor and Veilguard Skill Lucanis will get, however, will depend on whether or not he forgives or imprisons Illario during the A Murder of Crows quest.

Do note that you are not required to be in an exclusive relationship with Lucanis for them to be a Hero of the Veilguard!

Should Lucanis Forgive or Imprison Illario?

Lucanis Imprisons Illario if you Helped Minrathous

If you chose to help Minrathous insted of Treviso, you will not have the choice to influence Lucanis during A Murder of Crows. He will instead choose to imprison Illario.

As a result of this, Lucanis will receive Demon of Defiance (Veilguard Skill) and Crow's Tenacity (Legendary Armor).

Should You Help Minrathous or Treviso?
