Dragon Age

My linktree, I am open for commissions :)

All my links , I'm open for commissions.

For me, I really like both Dwarf origins, with Noble probably a bit more.

Dwarf commoner shows how bad castless have it and provides a unique outlook on the later part of the game, and is one of the few origins where joining the wardens really feels like a step up in the world. Although the ending of the origin feels rushed, a bit deus ex machina, IMO.

Dwarf noble is just amazing all around. So many ways you can roleplay your dwarf, and the origin adjusts accordingly- you can be an honorable goody two-shoes, or a scheming douchebag that is too noble to talk to your lessers. You can refuse to participate in the noble schemes, or play the game of thrones yourself- the end result is the same, but how guilty you join them differs.

As for the least favorite origin, I have to say it’s the City Elf one for me. I just don’t like how one-dimensional the villain is, how little impact it has, considering how traumatic the whole origin can be.

What about tou?

It’s so much fun.

I was googling mages specs before choosing and most of the posts have called necro the worst of the three, unfun and weak. Most of the builds out there recommend skipping the right side of the three entirely, and and picking the walking bomb. Big mistake.

Wisps of the fallen almost triples my attack dps with max stack and the dot from the Mark melts enemies in seconds. As for the rest I have yet to find a spell more satisfying than Walking Bomb. Those two skills alone have turned my mage into powerhouse of the party. Also, you can self-res with a revive when simulacrum is active.

I admit I have hadnot much use for the horror, and I have not tried haste yet.

Has anyone else had fun with necromancer spec? Any build tips?

I want to see more of the Deep Roads. It was one of my favorite places in the first game, not only beautiful but incredibly creepy. The abandoned areas, the darkspawn infested areas, the broodmother encounter. I want to see more of that. I felt in the 2nd and 3rd games it was underutilized. These are vast network of tunnels that have been abandoned for so long that you get this unsettling feeling that you shouldn't be there. I really hope they play a bigger role in the next game.

For example I have been planning a dalish playthrough across the three games - Dalish Warden, Hawke romancing Merill, Dalish Inquisitor. In the end my Inq ended up being Qunari and the only common thing across the games ended up all my PCs being extremely lesbian. Damn you Sera.

What about you?

I am becoming more and more pessimistic about DAD. What do you think?

Silly or serious, big or small, I wanna see them!

Also first post!! Hope the community grows over time (^-^)/
