Protip: after you arrive at haven, prioritize crafting at least a decent tier 2 armor for cassandra (for you if you playing the tank) and take the flank immunity passive asap. this will make things much easier regardless of your build on nightmare

Also shield wall, the AI manages to use it pretty well it's good to avoid damage and generate guard freely. I feel like in Nightmare any AI warrior should use a shield and shield wall, even Bull will survive easily with that

Honestly envious of the motivation you have for putting these great vids together! I’ve always loved builds that use elusive stacks and other stuff as support abilities. It makes me wonder how much you could make a fully specialized rogue into a support build. Like it would probably be a bit too much to micro manage, but imagine an assassin that uses toxic cloud (ability and on kill) for party elusive, caltrops, sleep spells and mark of death built with loads of focus gain to use party cloak. Meanwhile you could have a mage decked out with ring of doubt and massive crit damage bonus with no points wasted on crit chance ready to release an onslaught of unholy auto crit damage. Dupe the ring a couple times and you could have a team of 3 attack mages auto crit any boss into the ground in in the 9 seconds the assassin gives plus possibly a mark of death if necessary! Edit: you could probably do it in 3 sec 1 tier ver with energy barrages and winter’s ruin or fire mines. Anyhow, you can probably guess I haven’t been up too much, but I did grind up a warrior pre spec to get the unique item ver of the chromatic gs. It’s definitely not on par with just crafting gear (base damage is 242, and there’s no masterwork like on the crafted cgs), but with the shards done I’ll have 50% res to all elements, the belt of elements boosts that to 65%, and a Templar spec or traveling with Cass would be 75%! Melee is about 65%, ranged 40% and magic 20%! all this with 20% attack, 45% crit chance (50 with Varric) and 70 crit dmg - I used prowler armor to get 41 cunning to boost range and crit. Overall, attack isn’t mind boggling, but with WB on armor craft and double hits from the sword, I can get 7-20k detonations off combat rolls, and defense is incredible for a 2h with only 261 armor rating. Vitaar also helps base damage recovery (tho I haven’t gotten cretahl yet). Another idea I’m building towards is a sleeping whirlwind Templar. Since there’s a passive for chance to weaken on hit for Templars, I was thinking of a whirlwind build with chain lightning that auto shocks, weakens and rupture detonates enemies. With a crafted cgs or prismic axe, the double hits would be great for getting the effects out too. Even a second lesser chain lightning would be helpful in upping hits to proc weaken and shock applying hits. 2nd edit: wishing there was a good way to reliably sleep and detonate with WS warrior like that. It would give Bolt (lightning blade with chain lightning and lightning enchant for attacks) a great use, and the possibility of an extra masterwork.

Nice! Your Templar sounds great as well! The passive weakness proc is something I always overlooked, but in this way it can be of great use. And CL also interrupts enemy attacks, so your WW might not be interrupted as much when you whirl into mobs. Provided that your masterwork procs properly.

As always amazing work! :D My question is would you take time before another trilogy build to do a companion build in DA2 ? I finally started to play is as a rogue and finally got how to build a team without a friendly fire but i cannot figure out how to build effciently Isabela or merril. And what will be the next trylogy build you gonna work on?
@AKisHerceg
2 жыл бұрын
Merril is not that difficult, since her spec's spells don't offer FF you can make her a pretty ok Curser/Blood Mage with the Entropy tree and the Dalish Pariah. Isabella is tricky, since she is always in danger - not only from enemies, but from the team as well. Against normal mobs she can survive with Cunning/Defense boosting(with 80% defense she is pretty ok), but against hard bosses(like the Revenant bosses or Arcane Horrors - enemies with aoe skills/spells) she can die in seconds. You really have to invest heavily into Stealth with her, otherwise she has no chance(I even favorite Evade for her so she can periodically jump back(danger or no) to save her from some nasty aoe surprise). With me, if I bring Isabella, Aveline is a must have in the team with the Bodyguard skill dead set on her.

Love the vids. Quick question: I noticed for the toxic archer build (3rd one) that you have 11 points by level 8. I’m guessing you’re human, so that should give you 8 (from the levels) +2 (from the two initial points at the beginning of the game since you’re human). Where does the last point come from? If you chose a different race (I chose elf for roleplaying), which skills would you cut out by level 8? Would you keep same progression and just cut the last 1 (or 2) skills? Thanks for putting these together. Cheers.

So long shot hoping for feed back when I get to DA:I. Going reaver warrior what would you recommend for masterworks? I typically side with the mages so no amulet of barrier if I do. I’m mostly worried about my survival. I’ll still have Cassandra as the real tank and I usually spec Dorian or Vivienne into ice for the CC. Rogue wise I usually use Varric (even though it’s stupid he only gets one masterwork slot the whole game if he keeps using Bianca). I know max damage would be target explodes and either walking bomb or mind blast for the detonator since warrior doesn’t really have any real detonate skills outside a handful. I’m mostly concerned with how survivable I’ll be without the amulet or guard on hit.

Hey man. Is it possible to play a pure meele mage in dragon age origins that uses dual wield > 2H > s&s + Elemental buffs and spells mainly for CC/Defense? I haven't played da:o in like 10 years and would like to play the game as a spellsword on the highest difficulty but I don't know if something like this is viable at all. I have seen your dual wield rough mage and would like to play something similar to this but instead of poison I would prefer an element. (hope you're fine by me asking this random question under a Da:I video^^)

Yes, it is possible. :) Just pick either frost or flaming weapons instead of poisons - with a support mage you can even have both. I have AWs with every possible weapon(except a bow - haven’t figured it out yet how to make that fun), so your spellsword can definitely work.

Yes, PW works with it. Thing is, it’s a bit of a waste since you kill everything with the two skill combo anyway(as you see it in the video even without a full team, the damage is huge, with a full team I don’t even need follow up shots). Plus since you are always far away(and if someone closes in, you just jump away), you don’t get hurt a lot so you don’t need it for the leech either.

I was trying to do the sniper build but it's honestly very hard to play it, it's rare to hit that 1k as sometimes you don't have the map advantage to be far and you can use that max dmg boost on console as we can't aim from a far distance like on pc (I play the game on both platform)
@AKisHerceg

Well, on pc, it's basically one Evade jump in the opposite direction and you already have the distance for the damage bonus(which is pretty much mandatory for the build). It indeed seems like you have a disadvantage on consoles in this regard.

From SKYHOLD, you get materials to improve all the items you use, BUT certain items need to be collected after killing certain types of enemies, which can make it easier to build the items, but on the other hand it can make it difficult if your players are at a lower level or the weapons are not strong enough to take a lot of energy. I say this from my own experience.

Not sure what you are talking about. Below level 10, you don't have many skill points to distribute(11-12), so if you want your skills to be powerful, you need to stick to a few specific skills with some good passives. If you pick up a bunch of skills, then you will end up having a weak archer who does not even have enough stamina to use all those weak skills. Maybe it looks "slow" to you, because most of these presentations are with only me and Bull(and he is a tank with basically no damage) and not with a full party. :)

@@aoquagame4200 I think I understand what you are saying now. Yes, I'm aware of that but you were talking about "never running out of stamina with 3 skills", which I demonstrated to be false. Good skills require huge amount of stamina and they recharge slowly. In my opinion, it is better to stick to a few good skills, then to have a massive amount of skills that are weak and useless. What is the point of me having an extra 2 skills when they deal next to no damage? Just to not have to wait until the others are on cooldown? That is silly, because they take away stamina from your powerful skills. You also not factor in that good skills require more points invested in the tree, therefore you don't really have too many options. I go after the passives as well, and they add a lot to my damage.
