Curious, I'm going to try this as well. Her quest had triggered for me in the past a couple of times later in the game but not since.
Velanna's Exile never triggers in 1.04 *NEW*

I posted this in another thread as well:
I can give you my experience -- I think it actually does have to do with approval rating, though for me it happened accidentally (as in, it just happened -- I didn't realize it has been a problem for others):
- After picking her up in the Wending wood I immediately gave her all the appropriate gifts -- the blank journal, her sister's trinket etc.
- Then, before even entering the mines, I went back to the Keep because I wanted to offload all my junk and also look through my equipment to see what would be the best for her.
- While there, I just randomly talked to Varel and noticed the option to have someone take the joining. So I had Valenna do it then, and I didn't even realize it was actually supposed to happen after the mines.
- Then, either before the mines or after (sorry, can't remember) I was going to Amaranthine and was met by the Dalish in the woods.
So -- that's what happened with me. I'm sure there are other ways to do it, but by the time it happened her approval rating was really high, so I'm guessing that's what it was (but I don't actually know). Also, I'm using 1.04.
I also had no problem with Lilith triggering, though I suppose it was kind of 'late' on in the game.

The other day I had Velanna's quest trigger by following what some have posted above.
I did the Wending Woods quests first. and then straight to the Silverite Mines without leaving to sell/empty inventory. Before leaving the Silverite Mines I made sure Velanna had only "minor" approval by giving her two gifts (one of the green gemstones and the elven locket) immediately prior to the Architect-Utha cut scene. First destination was Wending Wood. Then Vigil. Immediately turned around and went to Wending Wood -- on the way there Velanna's quest triggered.
Don't know if it makes a difference, but when I first went to Amaranthine I didn't speak and/or pick up any quests other than talk to Mervis to put Wending Wood on the map.
Edit. On further thought, on my 1st Amaranthine visit I also spoke to Wynne, and picked up the silk trader and statue inscription quests, and the ancient sylvan quests. Again, don't know if this makes a difference.

I have only had this quest trigger once, in the multiple times playing it, infact my only post 1.04 run. I barely had any random encounters at all, was like empty. I never even got the "random" encounter for the merchant.

Finally triggered. After the mines, I gave her one gift, then traveled around. Happened first transit from place to place.
Now if only Pirates would attack me, I'll finally get to see Dumat's Claw.

It seems to trigger right after the mine quest usually and right after the quest only. I've gotten it four times. Three were between Wending Wood and the keep which was before witch hunt patch and since then I had to travel from the Wending Wood to Knotwood hills. All I get now between Keep and Wending Wood is random encounters

Never triggered. Imported warden or Orlesian. No fix?

On my first playthrough as an imported human noble i had a save where it always triggered i hadn't done anything special and i hadn't given her that many gifts but i'd done Law and Order so sigrun wouldn't trigger i am of course kicking myself for this now.

Just got the encounter in my playthrough. I imported a character from Origins, got Velanna to Minor before leaving the Silverite Mines, went to Wending Woods on the map, and it worked on the first try. Hooray and such.

got it by having minor magic before joining right after the mines by going to the keep then back to the woods, as someone else suggested on here after multiple attempts other ways and times thanks!

People shouldn't have to go through the map 20 times over to trigger a quest due to incompatent jack offs who still won't do a damn thing to fix the problem!

I'm new to the forums but not new to Dragon Age or Biowares games but this has got to be the biggest headache I have ever encountered in a game. I don't get how popular and succesful Bioware is when it seems like every game they release is filled with bugs and glitches its like they don't test it before releasing it.
Sorry for the rambling but jeez. Anyway I have tried every combination you all have put on this forum all day I started at 2 pm and its now after 4 am and I didn't get the encounter once. There is however one thing none of you have brought up that I found. If you get Velanna's approval up to atleast 28 (warm) you can go to Vigil's Keep and go to the Throne room and a arrow will be above her head, go to the map screen and highlight her with the arrow and it will say Velanna (Velanna's Exile) and when you talk to her she will talk about how much the dalish has lost. This was brought up in another post but no one on this one has said anything about this particular dialouge, if anyone did I apologize its after 4 am and my eyes are killing me lol.
After this dialouge I traveled with just her and my warden (its also said travelling alone with her makes your chances go way up but idk) i tried all of the travelling options but nothing, then i gave her the blank journal and tried that way...nothing, then i had her join the grey wardens...nothing. Since there are people who say they have gotten it I don't think its a complete bug...its just a very very VERY random quest..which is stupied since its just a companion quest, or maybe its a hit or miss bug idk (by the way im playing the UE version on the 360 with a imported warden). I also have both her inspired minor and major magic skills, gave her the trinket (which gave me the right amount of approval) the deserted and blank journals and some other gifts and I done the diolouges at the statue at the Keep and the 2 in Amaranthine so like I said I have done every one of the suggestions and still nothing, but since the dialouge option in the throne room clearly says on the map Velanna (Velanna's Exile) maybe this is a stepping stone to triggering it.
well there is my 2 cents like I said if someone on here said anything about it sorry but thought I would include this since I didn't see anyone mentoin it
I hope one of us can come up with a step to step guide on how to trigger this quest

I have tried absolutely everything, I give up. I did 20 trips from Silverite to Wending Wood, and every time I trigger a "Forest Path" related battle. Since her "flag" is located under the "Forest Path" under the console I assumed that had something to do with it, which is why Silverite always works so well as opposed to the possibility of "Canyon" when you head to Vigil's Keep. Regardless of affinity or anything else this won't trigger after 30 attempts and at least 8 or 10 successful "random encounters" all of which seemed to be just about every possible combination of enemy you can encounter on the "Forest Path".
