Mayor Dimeta in "Dragon Age: Shadowkeep" is a unique NPC in the game. Players will need to choose the fate of the mayor in a later mission. You can choose to rescue the mayor. Or keep the mayor, this decision has two main consequences in the game. One of them has to do with whether your team members approve of your actions.
How to choose Mayor Dimeta in Dragon Age 4
Rook's decision whether to save or keep the mayor in "Dragon Age: Shadowkeep" is an important question. This decision has two main consequences in the game. One of them is related to whether your team members approve of your actions, and the other is related to whether the player can participate in an additional dungeon mission.
Overall, however, the storyline doesn't seem to have much of an impact, so you can feel comfortable making this decision without worrying too much about the long-term consequences. Here's how your decisions will affect your relationships with specific party members.
What would happen if you saved the mayor?
If you choose to save the mayor, Belala will protest, pointing out that the mayor is responsible for the death of nearly every villager in Dimeta. After choosing to save him, the mayor will give the team some advice, but none of it is substantial.
The decision to save the mayor will be approved by Nivi, which will give you an advantage if you wish to pursue her, but will be met with disapproval by Hardin and Belala. Other than that, it doesn't affect the story, but it will cost the player the chance to participate in another dungeon later.
What happens if you choose to stay as mayor?
Conversely, if the players decide to let the mayor face the fate of the disaster themselves, they will encounter the opposite reaction. Belala and Hardin will approve of this action, while Nivi will object, pointing out that he was not in full control of his actions but was influenced by the gods.
If you choose the Gray Keepers as your faction, there will be a third option, which involves banishing him to that faction. This would have the same outcome as saving the mayor, except Nivi would be very approving of the decision.
In addition to the recognition changes, players will also receive additional dungeon missions later in the game. If he is left to the Scourge, the Mayor will transform into a powerful boss-like creature that you need to defeat as part of the "Growing Corruption" quest. This isn't a necessary part of the main story, but certainly, it will provide players with an additional opportunity to level up their characters and improve synergy with party members.
With both consequences in mind, we recommend leaving the mayor to his fate. Unless you want to speed up your romance with Nivi, it's possible to restore the Endorsement rating and be overall better off getting Endorsements for two characters instead of one, as well as the extra content that comes with another instance quest. Overall, there are no right or wrong answers, so just go with your gut.
