Be My Head:
Awesome, thank god I can do that, or else I'd be horribly crippled.

...I've finished the game and I never noticed that.

Fuck.

TwistedRemedy:
I love this game. Started last night around nine. Blinked and it was three in the morning.

Professor Snuggles:
This game is awesome but I am dying a whole bunch more than I feel like I should be, and Injury kits are getting expensive. I dunno if I'm just doing the wrong quests or what, but in my party of me(duelist rogue) Alistair, Morrigan, and Dog, the rogue and warrior die on like, every 5th encounter, and boss fights usually wipe me 2 or 3 times before I manage to take them down. I dunno if I'm just not playing the game well in terms of tactics and things, or if I've made a mistake and not put enough points into constitution or what, but this is silly. Anyone else having this problem, or do I just suck at video games.

KvP:
That's normal. Melee combatants with low con die consistently, as you're basically supposed to play this game like an MMO - you have a tank who uses the "taunt" and "threaten" abilities to draw enemy focus away from spellcasters, who are the real heavy hitters, and soak up damage. Most people who take on Sten thinking he'd be a perfect tank with his size found out that he's often the fighter to crumble. Which is why Shale is such a powerful character - his con starts in the 30s and his strength is in the 20s. He's not a complete tank but when he's trading blows he lasts longer than anybody else.

It might also be because you're playing as a rogue. There have been a lot of complaints about how useless most rogues are, with or without the dex-modifier hotfix. They're generally pretty fragile and even as archers they pale compared to fighters. I've found that the only way to keep Leilana from dying constantly is to set the difficulty to easy. Bioware is apparently working on this. The best way to play a rogue is as a backstabber, preferably coupled with disabling spells from another party member. Otherwise you've got a tough road to hoe.
