How to unlock the Nostalgia Trip achievement in Dragon Age: The Veilguard - Definitive Guide
There are six statues scattered around the outside area of the Lighthouse, the first step is to find all six and turn them so they face each other - the video below will show exact rotations if you need help. Once you have done so the Music Room will unlock but there is nothing you can do with it until Chapter 8.
At the start of Chapter 8, a wisp will appear in the music room that you can place in the nearby pedestal. A second wisp appears next to the pair of statues outside that you need to place in the other pedestal in the music room. Doing so will unlock a portal to an area where you can interact with a blue crystal to earn a permanent discount in the Caretaker's Workshop.
Afterwards you simply need to jump off the balcony in front of you and this will pop.

The trick with the ‘Nostalgia Trip’ achievement is to unlock somewhere within the Lighthouse where the fall would usually cause fall damage - a nod back to Inquisition, we assume. The falling is the easy part, getting somewhere to fall from is a little less straightforward.
Fear not, we have the perfect spot! Firstly, you’ll want to move 6 statues dotted all over the Lighthouse map to face their counterpart:
- Firstly, in the Courtyard, on the balcony above where the entrance is to the Library and your quarters, there are two statues next to each other that you need to make face one another.
- Secondly, on the southside of the aforementioned balcony, twist the statue so it’s facing east. Then, run to the other side of the level (to the southside of the Dining Room) and then point that statue to face the previous one you moved.
- Finally, there is another statue behind Bellara’s Workshop, make it face east. And then there’s one below (and behind) Neve’s Study, make it face west.
Doing that will unlock the Music Room, which can be found via a corridor to the north of the main Library area of the Lighthouse.
Then, a little later on, a couple of wisps will appear around the Lighthouse:
- One in the Music Room;
- And the other on the balcony overlooking the Courtyard, where 2 statues were previously.
Take those 2 wisps to the Music Room door and you’ll gain access to a new area where you can turn on the Astrolobe. Once you’ve done that, jump over the balcony and this achievement is all yours.
