snalin:
Just bought it, and it is performing very nicely along with a newly computer. If I could only get the bastard to understand that there's 6GB of RAM, not 4, I'll be happy.
I'm rolling mage, and I've been focusing on spells that bother the enemies, not the ones that kill them. With my main who can paralyze one enemy, the witch who can freeze one and horror one and stun everything around her, and the dog who can stun everything too, I've got quite a lot of crowd control.
Question: do you go after the stronger member of a group of enemies first, to make him stop punishing you early on, or do you kill all the weak ones that can fall fast, so you'll get less damage faster? I usually paralyze the alphas etc. and slaughter the rest, then move on to him, but I've had some problems with the leader coming back in the middle of the fight and doing MASSIVE damage when I'm already low on health/mana. Any ideas?
I'm also going to replace my dog, I think. He's good, but he doesn't have any skills to use, and that leaves him at a disadvantage. I think I'll get a rouge along, to pick locks etc, so far I've been able to just switch the party around when I need lockpick, and then switch back again, but I'm guessing that higher level chests requires higher level rouges.
ackblom12:
I just realized I've beatent he game twice and I'm only getting around a 70% - 80% completion on the playthroughs and I have never found whee to learn the Reaver specialization.
I needs to know what I'm missing.
Boro_Bandito:
I really, really need to know where I can get Champion unlocked, anyone find it who could tell me?
Darke:
Right, apparently I'm not cool enough to use the spoiler tags, so:
Spoilers, guys. Scroll past the whole post if you're of the "figure it out for myself" persuasion.
Both the Reaver and Champion are unlocked as part of the Urn of Ashes (or Andraste's Ashes or Sacred Ashes or whatever the hell it is) quest, where you have to cure the Arl of Redcliffe. For Reaver, when you're in the Ruined Temple and Whathisface (Kogrim or something similar) asks you to pour the dragon's blood into the ashes; do it. Return to him and he'll grant you the specialization as a reward. Just beware as Wynne and Leliana will be very, very upset.
As for the Champion, simply finish the quest and cure the Arl. You'll be offered a reward; accept it, and you'll be given the Champion specialization.
Spike:
I don't know if anything about this has been posted or not earlier in the thread, but I would recommend that rogues and archers check out the dexterity hot fixes.

Ranged Weapon hit rate increased.
Bow range has been increased by 10m on all ranged weapons (not staff), reducing the penalties for ranged shots in most most combat scenarios.

Short bow being useless.
Short bows now get full attribute bonus from Dexterity instead of shared from Strength. This makes them a natural choice for Dexterity focused character builds.
