Thus, there may be spoilers for you in my discussions on how to reach some of these (but nothing that spoils any major storylines). Please note that in order to get to some of these, some quests or War Table operations need to occur first. In each photo, I tried standing close to the artifact so that my locational arrow is as accurate on the maps as possible. I’m fairly certain I have located every one in the game, but if I missed one, please alert me so I can scout it out and add it here. So, I went on a quest to discover and catalog every artifact for others to easily find. In the Solas Thread, Nyaore posted map scans from the strategy guide, but that proved… a bit inaccurate, for I stumbled upon many others that the strategy guide basically said did not exist.

However, these aren’t marked on your maps anywhere and can be pretty easy to miss (often, your only warning is having Solas in the party and hearing him say that he senses one nearby, usually when you’re almost on top of it). It guides you to an old elven ruin in the Hinterlands and activating it, according to him, strengthens the veil in the immediate area.Īfter you activate 10 of these artifacts scattered throughout Orlais and Ferelden, a new quest titled “What Lies Dormant” becomes available via a War Table operation.Īdditionally, these artifacts are a good way to raise Solas’s approval of you and gain experience points. Early in the game, Solas gives you his first personal quest: “Measuring the Veil”.
