Dragon Age The Veilguard contains 182 Memento Locations. Finding 140+ Mementos is required to fully upgrade your equipment to the highest level +10 and to unlock the “Enhancements!” trophy & achievement. The exact amount of Mementos you need will vary depending on which ones you collect. Each Memento gives between 50 to 200 Caretaker Power. You need 12,000 Caretaker Power total to reach the highest upgrade level +10.

Mementos are needed for the following trophies & achievements:

  •  A Rook Likes Shiny Things – Found at least 20 Mementos and returned them to the Caretaker
  •  A Rook Really Likes Shiny Things – Found at least 80 Mementos and returned them to the Caretaker
  •  Enhancements! – Fully upgraded a weapon, armor, and accessory to their highest level and rarity (around 140+ Mementos needed to reach 12,000 Caretaker Power)

Mementos can be delivered to the Caretaker (Upgrade Shop) in the Lighthouse (hub area). This is only possible after advancing the story until the Caretaker joins you. Whenever you upgrade the Caretaker level, all equipment you find or buy will automatically be dropped at the maximum upgrade level. For example, if you upgrade the Caretaker shop to +5, then all loot you find will automatically be level +5. If you find a duplicate of gear you already own it will be upgraded to max level for free. So deliver your Mementos to the Caretaker whenever possible to make use of this.

MISSABLE WARNING: A huge amount of Mementos is in quest specific areas that can’t be revisited. Either during story specific areas or companion quests. It’s HIGHLY recommended to search all areas thoroughly as you play through the game.

Recommended Use: Search all areas thoroughly as you play. You won’t need a guide during your playthrough, the areas are small and linear. The Mementos glow green and are easy to see from afar, almost all of them sit on the main path in plain sight. Half of them can be bought from merchants. Whenever you find a new merchant, check the inventory if a Memento is for sale and buy it. Upgrade all faction merchants to shop rank 4, then they sell an expensive Memento that gives +200 Caretaker Power. Almost all Mementos are gated in quest areas. Work through all quests and search all corners. If you end up with less than 12,000 Caretaker Power after you’re done with everything, compare against this guide for what you’re missing. Also recheck all merchants, they often have new Mementos in stock after doing more quests.

This guide includes 152 of 182 Mementos, which is about 10 more than you need for 12,000 Caretaker Power. During the story most areas will be locked, so use the guide for cleanup only. After the story you can click “Continue” in the Title Screen and it will put you back before the ending, you can still do all quests from that point and return to all open world areas (but not the quest-specific areas). The quest-specific areas with missable Mementos are labeled red in the overview below.
