Neve is the Best Romance Option for Gameplay

Neve Gallus

Progressing Neve's companion quests can allow her to unlock the Winter's Wrath skill and the Threader's Plates armor. These are unlocked after clearing City of Shadows at the end of her companion questline.

Note that it is not required to commit to Neve for the skill and armor. It simply offers the best effects out of all the others' bonuses from their Companion Quests and is recommended to do her quests for it.

Protect Dock Town in City of Shadows

Neve HoV Choice - Protect Dock Town

To acquire the Winter's Wrath ability and the Threader's Plates equipment, players must choose to protect Dock Town in the City of Shadows quest. This guarantees that Neve will acquire said ability and equipment upon attaining Hero of the Veilguard status.

Protect Dock Town or Bring It Hope?

Best Hero of the Veilguard Skill

Skill Effect
Winter's Wrath
Veilguard Skill
・Increases Neve's critical damage by 50% more damage.
・Increases ability damage against Low Health enemies by 25%.
Decreases ability damage cooldowns by 20%.

Neve's Hero of the Veilguard skill Winter's Wrath can reduce cooldowns by 20% for her abilities. While other companions receive similar skills upon reaching the Hero of the Veilguard status, the cooldown reduction for Neve is especially powerful due to her access to Replenish and Time Slow and their respective upgrades.

Both skills can acquire an additional 20% cooldown reduction and can either restore Rage/Momentum/Mana or grant buffs in their upgrades. Replenish restores 20 resource after unlocking Cold Comfort, and grants Resistant with Watch Your Back. Time Slow's Seize the Moment upgrade grants a 25% damage buff, can restore 50 resource with Windfall, and grants a free skill use with Hasten.

Best Legendary Armor

Armor Effect
Threader's Plates
Legendary Armor
・Enemies can now only be Detonated once, but remain Sundered.
Sundered effectiveness increases by 20%.

Threader's Plates allows a permanent Sundered effect on the enemy and increases its effectiveness by 20%, but can only be detonated once. The Sundered effect increases the damage taken; having it remain permanent can allow for an overall increase in damage output as the party unleash their abilities on the enemy.

Emmrich is the Best Romance Option for Story

Emmrich Volkarin

Emmrich's questline offers a more sensual romance between him and Rook, with a lot of deep discussions about life and death scattered in his questline. He flirts back when a romance dialogue is prompted, allowing players to be on the receiving end of the stick instead of being stuck in the giver role.

His companion quests offers the most in-depth view into his character as opposed to others' companion quests, almost letting you peer into his mind with each dialogue taken. He opens up about his views and fears, giving you a better understanding of him as a person, and is not afraid to show vulnerability when spending time with Rook.
