Schmooples' Den! The DA News Discussion Thread

I'm on call during the night between Wednesday and Thursday and then have a normal dayshift after, I really hope the night is calm and quiet so I get to sleep and won't be to tired once Veilguard finishes downloading.

^ Lil bit of a missed opportunity to make Arcane Shot like DAI's 'Energy Barrage', where the skill takes up your staff's elemental properties. I loved that spell.

But this looks cool, though. And it leaves your enemies with a burning sensation. O.o

Want to watch the chain lightning again. Which page was It on?

Whaaat!? 
(k, just tested it on my phone, give it a second after it breaks. It's probably a loading thing.)

Ovulate, child.

I could be wrong but I thought Elemental Barrage was made into a trait for this game. I swear I saw it used in one of the gameplay trailers.

Lunchtime, doubly so!

Heehee!

Go Evoker staff Mage, there are some items and skills that will let you do a staff-themed energy barrage rather frequently 😉

probably going to be my second playthrough. Maybe third.

Yeah, I wasn't exactly complaining. (Except, I guess this means I really won't get to play mage for a while if I play dwarf. It keeps coming back to that for me this week. XD) Like, I love ME. And I even loved the combat in Andromeda, which seems like it might be a good analogue to VG's combat, but with more magic and no jump jets(?). It may not bother me at all once I'm in there. I just have been replaying DAI recently and I find myself switching around (in tac cam, which I *have* always used and will probably miss...) and it just struck me that I won't get to fling lightning at fools directly if I don't play a mage Rook. Or get to switch to a companion and lead the group with them at the fore cus its more story/rp appropriate to me and I'm a dork that way. lol

Again, I probably won't really notice. Probably. I doubt it'll bug me anyway. 

The only real worry I have is how the Inquisitor's presence is gonna actually be handled. I went from "10 years of opinionated but trying to keep my expectations in check" to "hopeful" to "not hopeful" to "bemused and confused about whether to be hopeful or not" over the course of this 2 months of marketing ramp up. I'm pretty sure I'll enjoy most of the rest of the game, but if I'm gonna complain about anything, Inquisitor has a high potential to be on the list. I hope not, though.
