Doing quests related to companions will increase their friendship or alliance scores, which directly impacts how well those companions will perform in battles near the end of the game, like in past Dragon Age games. Portions of the mission may include infiltration or combat, and lower leveled companions are more likely to fail in their parts, which in turn tanks the final mission for players.
Making sure that companions are leveled up enough to succeed will be the most important indication that players are ready. As long as players finish the quests related to their allies and level them up, they should be able to survive the finale of Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
