Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire endings

This page covers all Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire endings and the conditions needed to achieve them.

Pre end-game slides
Prior to the end-game slides playing, you will see one of two scripted interactions.

Main ending
You can either win or lose the game. Losing the game will only show these slides and no more. Winning the game will continue to following slides.

Eothas
The slides shown here depend primarily on which faction, if any, you allied with to take Ukaizo, and what course of action you convinced Eothas to take at the end of The City Lost to Time.

Ukaizo
This part of the ending has a number of variations depending on different faction outcomes. For this reason, they are separated into categories based on which faction the Watcher chose to ally with:
 * Huana
 * Vailian Traiding Company
 * Royal Deadfire Company
 * Príncipi sen Patrena
 * No Faction

Many of these endings factor in the strongest rival, or the faction that attacked you during The City Lost to Time.

Huana
This category is only displayed if allied with the Huana when reclaiming Ukaizo.

The first slide is always shown, showing the status of the Huana. The status of the Vailian Trading Company is then shown. The status of Rauatai and the Royal Deadfire Company is then shown.

Finally, the state of the Príncipi sen Patrena is shown.

Vailian Trading Company
This category is only displayed if allied with the Vailian Trading Company when reclaiming Ukaizo.

The first set of slides are dependent on who is the director of the Vailian Trading Company. The next slides shown are dependent on the status of the Huana. Finally, the status of the other factions is displayed.

Royal Deadfire Company
This category is only displayed if allied with the Royal Deadfire Company when reclaiming Ukaizo.

The first slide is always shown, showing the status of Rauatai and the Royal Deadfire Company. The next slides depend on the status of the Príncipi sen Patrena. Finally, the status of the other factions is shown.

Príncipi sen Patrena
This category is only displayed if allied with the Príncipi sen Patrena when reclaiming Ukaizo.

The first set of slides are dependant on who is the leader of the Príncipi sen Patrena. The state of the Huana is then shown.

No Faction
This category is only displayed if the Watcher chooses to reclaim Ukaizo on their own, without the assistance of a faction.

Port Maje
The slides shown for Port Maje primarily depend on the status of its leaders, which is influenced by the Watcher either helping Maia Rua deliver her missive to Tuaha, or even choosing to personally attack the leaders of Port Maje themselves.

Port Maje Assassination
This category is only displayed if the Watcher assists Maia Rua in delivering her missive to Tuaha in Port Maje, as it turns out the consequence of this is the leaders of Port Maje being assassinated.

The first slide shown depicts the status of Port Maje. Additionally, unless the Watcher chose to reclaim Ukaizo alone, further influence from the controlling faction is shown.

Port Maje Bloodshed
This category is displayed if the Watcher decides to murder either Clario and/or Ikawha, the leaders of Port Maje.

Furthermore, some of the factions may have further influence over Port Maje when in control of Ukaizo. If so, these slides are then shown.

Port Maje Peaceful
This category is displayed if the Watcher does not allow Maia Rua to deliver her missive to Tuaha in Port Maje, stopping the leaders of Port Maje from being assassinated. Additionally, Clario and Ikawha must not be killed by the Watcher.

Children of the Dawnstars
Firstly, the status of Laethärn and his leadership.

The first slide shown depicts the status of Tikawara's leader.

Tikawara Peaceful
This category is only displayed if the Watcher did not assist Maia Rua in delivering her missive to Harama in Tikawara, resulting in the leader of Tikawara remaining alive.

Crookspur
These slides only appear if you did not take out the slavers at Crookspur Island.

Splintered Reef
These slides only appear if you did not kill Menzzago in A Paradise of the Mind, or you didn't recruit Copperhead afterwards.

Edér
Edér must be alive and recruited for a slide to show here. Only one slide is shown, based on which condition is met first from this list.

Xoti
Xoti must be alive and recruited for this section to be shown.

If Xoti has a notable relationship, the slide discussing it will come up first, expect in the case of an active relationship with the Watcher, which will apear after Xoti's normal ending slides. The relationship slides are as follows. Xoti's normal ending slide is then displayed, which is based on how her personal quest, The Lantern of Gaun, is completed.

Aloth
Aloth must be alive for a slide to be shown, however he still gets an ending slide even if he was not recruited, as long as he was seen by the Watcher. Additionally, if Aloth is in a relationship with the Watcher, an extra slide will appear.

Serafen
Serafen must be alive for a slide to be shown.

Firstly, Serafen can leave on negative terms or you can get rid of him. These slides will prevent any further slides showing up for Serafen. If you haven't driven Serafen from your party, the slides that show up first deal with the fate of Remaro at the end of A Sorcerer and a Gentleman. Finally, a slide shows Serafen departing the party.

Pallegina
Pallegina must be alive and have been recruited for slides to be displayed about her. Additionally, after the above slide, there will be another slide covering the result of her personal quest, unless she left the party before the end of the game.

Maia
Maia Rua must be alive and have been recruited to show any slides. Then there is a slide if her personal quest is completed. There is also an additional slide to do with faction control if applicable. If Maia is involved in a notable romance with a companion or the Watcher, it appears here. Finally, if Kana Rua was recruited in the first game, an extra slide is shown depending on his fate.

Tekēhu
Tekēhu must be recruited and alive for these slides to appear. The first slide that appears shows Tekēhu's status. The next slide that may possibly appear deals with Tekēhu's relation to the Watershapers Guild, if any. It is likely none of these will apply unless you didn't complete the guild's quests, as it is instead covered by the guild's specific slides as seen above. Tekēhu's final ending slide is determined by his relationship with the Watcher.

The Watcher
The final slides show the fate of your own character, The Watcher.

Beast of Winter
First, what happens to the Dead Floe.
