Perseverance is a unique bow in Dragon Age: Inquisition.

Acquisition

• Locate a being that resembles a Chantry sister wandering alone in the in the Hissing Wastes' desert. The spirit is encountered in seemingly random areas of the region. After finding and speaking to her four times, she will state, "You have found we. Take this gift. Do not falter. In the absence of light, shadows thrive." Afterwards, she disappears and leaves behind some gold along with the bow.

Upgrades

• Master Frost Rune (+16 Cold Damage)

Notes

• Perseverance has the same appearance as the Elgar'nan Enaste unique bow.
• Though there are no specific spawn locations for the Chanter, potentially making it difficult to locate her multiple times, the player can save and reload upon finding her initially to prompt her into speaking the next line in the sequence. Doing this after every new line of dialogue allows the player to receive the bow while only having to find the NPC once.
