Like with most RPGs, Dragon Age: The Veilguard has a lot of buffs that you can get via your equipment and abilities. Any kind of buff is known as Advantages, and there are a lot of skills and equipment properties that may give your more bonuses based on whether you have an Advantage. This page will detail all of the Advantages in the game and what they do, so you don’t need to go looking every time you get a new one.
