How much faction strength do I need?

[DaisyRay]

I'm about a quest or two away from being locked out of side quests. Though most of my side quests are done, however, I still don't have the Minrathous shop up to max. I think it's two or three. Everything else is maxed and Neve is done with all her missions.

So what is the requirement on shop strength?

So far as I can tell, you need 50% of all the factions at excellent to get the best ending. You might also need 2 factions at moderate. I've finished with 2 factions left at weak and got the best ending.

Thank you! This helps so much. I've been stressing over it ever since I read there could be a bad ending lol. I know it's just a game, but I still have trauma from the first time I did the suicide mission in Mass Effect 2.

Yeah. Just remember though, the Lighthouse is Veilguard's version of the Normandy. Get all the upgrades, clear all the blight, etc., Get all of Solas' regrets. Those are all in the Crossroads.

Oh yeah, that was one of the first things I did, then had to pause and realize I'm not built for those bosses, but came back and did it eventually. I really did love the memories part, very good job of keeping Solas an important part of the story. Thanks again!

No problem. And best of luck!
