Some of the boss fights inDragon Age: The Veilguardare really tough - especially once you get to the end-game content. One way to deal with those tough enemies is to make sure your health is as high as possible. While you can always heal, there are a few ways to ensure your maximum health is as high as it can be.

Instead of simply increasing your health as you level up, you need to head out into Dragon Age: The Veilguard’s world to explore hidden areas and speak to merchants if you want more health. Thankfully, you have a few options if you want to do so quickly.

Every Way To Increase Max Health

There arethree waysyou can increase your max health, with some having more impact than others. They are:

Evanuris Altars

The first and most reliable option is tofind Evanuris Altarsin each of the world’s locations. Finding them contributes to location completion percentage and each one adds 100 health to your health bar.

You’re looking fortall statues holding a shield, and they’re often hidden behind puzzles and always require some exploration. Once you’ve interacted with one, four rotating icons will be floating nearby, with magic showing where they are. You need to destroy all four of the icons before the Altar will give you the 100 additional health. There are loads to find in the game, so doing so is the most reliable way to increase your max health.

Dragon’s Bounty

The other great way to increase your maximum health is tobuy a Dragon’s Bountyfrom vendors. Each major faction vendor, usually located at the main hub for the faction, will sell one. However, you may need to upgrade the merchant by a rank or two to unlock the ability to purchase it.

They cost300 gold eachand increase your maximum health by 25 percent of what you already have. Therefore, it’s best to buy them when you have already increased your health via Evanuris Altars because it means you’ll increase your maximum health by more.
