Versus Battle: The Dragonborn vs. The Inquisitor

putting the maker aside, we don't know how powerful are all the gods in dragon age. old gods, maybe, since 5 of them are kinda dead, but elven gods? i mean fen'harel can turn people to stone and we haven't seen his full power yet. plus mythal? come on, it's not that obvious till we actually know what they can do.

I'm not really sure that 1:1 comparison can really do much... there may be similarities, but these are different worlds with different rules. 

Yeah, really the only advantage the Daedric Princes have over the Old Gods is that the people of Tamriel haven't learned how to fully kill them yet. They're still in a situation like in the First Blight where even though they killed the Archdemon body, the soul would just jump to another Darkspawn and revive them. 

I agree. It can be fun, like for example comparing different fleets in science fiction to think who would win, but ultimately yeah each one has their own rules. Especially in fantasy since while science fiction tends to at least have some rules in common fantasy doesn't need to have any. 

Mine won't fight the dragonborn. She will convince the dragonborn to help fight the falmer, I mean the elf called Solas.

If they were to fight each other, the dragonborn wins because of the thu'um.

With everyone bringing up the Thu'um, remember that the Inquisitor actually has a defense against that: Aegis of the Rift. It would both protect the Inquisitor from any shout and even send it back at the Dragonborn.

you don't seem to grasp how mark of the rift works. it's not a damaging attack, or even an attack at all. it sucks stuff into the fade, being ethereal doesn't stoped you from being sucked into the fade... if anything, considering the fact that strong characters can actually resist being pulled into the fade and just slowed down instead, i'd say the dragonborn is better off not using it, as he will just be slowed down, while if he does use ethereal, well you can't resist being pulled when you have no mass.

how you figured? xD
you recon that being in a place where you get tons of books, education and time to study, while barely no contact with the outside world, would prevent people from being powerful at magic? good to know. even anders who hate the circle said it's the best place to learn about magic. and oh yeah there is you know, the archon and the magisters, who happen to be the most powerful mages in the imperium, a place in which everyone with the means can practice (and often does) blood magic to it's full extent? oh and dreamers, who while rare, are among the most powerful mages out there. you know, like the 7 old gods priests, who entered the fade? 
oh also fun fact, check out spell combos in origins, storm of the century is one of my favorites.

let's see: lightning flask (up to 100% faster) > stealth > shadow punch > twin blades > flank attack > deathblow
hmm...

Not any shout. What is that gonna do against Slow Time, Elemental Fury or Storm Call?


And let's not forget this:

Thing is, all Inquisitors have the mark, but many Dragonborns never bothered getting the Dragonstone and so never learned to use a single shout. Indeed, many Dragonborns are positively useless at fighting and it's fine to play Skyrim that way, whereas in Dragon Age Inquisition you basically have to build your character to fight - you can't really just spend your time picking flowers or burgling houses.

I'm just curious to see who's going to on a one-to-one battle.
