I went Tempest and am so glad I did. It's like epic magic while slicing and dicing. I do plan to play an artificer some day, but can you really plan where the bad guys will go? It's why I've never bothered with glyphs either. As an artificer I rarely use the one mine since it just takes too long to prime. Instead I use all the mini bombs and usually stealth on to enemies and surprise nuke the crap out of them with "bombs everywhere"
Throw Everything is tons of fun. So.Many.Explosions. I think they caused my game to crash once. I would also plant an upgraded Spike Trap right at my feet to surprise anyone trying to get the jump on me. Not a good spec for having FF on though, unless everyone else is ranged.

So this was a couple of days ago...but I finally, finally beat Gurd Harofsen on Nightmare with Team Squishy. Behind spoiler tags because they're 2560x1440...sorry. It was insanely satisfying, since I'm not an 'uber-gamer' and this fight had taken something like four hours of real-time attempts to get it done, including getting him to near-death twice before the goons he called wiped my party.

It really feels like Rogues got the golden egg with the specialisations this time around, doesn't it? I haven't played Artificer yet, but both Tempest and Assassin were mad fun, and Sera is a near compulsory character for me. My next playthrough will probably be another Assassin - though I might need a rest from DA:I once this current one is done - only Trespasser to go - it is up around 150 hours...

I did it. I didn't know he could even die the first time so I was determined to keep him alive this time. And I did it! He's safe now.

-gasp- I didn't know you could kill Ex templar Keran!
Also, I found an off map alley way (hightown) that had a chest in it! For some reason, that made me feel proud.

phoray - Tempest is a blast, but I do prefer it a bit more with a DW. This character is an archer. Have played Tempest with an archer too, and was fun, but still like it a bit better with blades. (Love the frost flask + twin fangs, as well ) Regardless, I will still let hubby choose. If he picks Tempest, then Tempest it will be. Tomorrow he said he would give me his answer. PS: Still rooting for Opportunity Knocks...errr, I mean Artificer.

Twice before, I'd spared Samson and Alain in DA2. I didn't this time. It was so satisfying to see Samson get butted over the head with the hilt of a sword knowing what he does in DAI, gotta admit.
Oh my gosh! Angry Hawke and Rivaled Aveline! She just jumped Hawke in her office and punched the hell out of him! Epic!
All being mean to Charade gets you is a couple bad names and no further scenes. And you don't get the Harrowmont line quest if you crown Bhelen either.
Responding aggressively to Merrill clan means death. But that's my Hawke. At first, I was like, oh. It's only these grumpy ones. That's not so bad. But then we went in to camp and there was the rest of them. Nearly all of them had a name over their head.
Oh my... in this play through, Emile De Launcet was forced back to the Circle after a bit of time with Nella. And I just heard from a Hanged Man patron that now she lives with his parents. I'd never known!
And Emile is at the End game in the Circle tower with Orsino! Wow! Had never seen that!

First time I ever killed Anders. This Hawke was built entirely to be the sort of person who would do that and yet.... The way his eyes flickered in his final moments. Like he was afraid to be alone and was looking for someone. I'm a monster. *cries*

It's good to be the Inquisitor. Even when troublesome nobles want to leash the Inquisition. I don't think anything will come of it though. Still, an opportunity for adventuring!

The first time I got spa time with Viv, I was a little shocked because we had...not been friends. I got the books for her because I didn't know better and then I hated her so hard for being mean to Cole that I skipped her personal quest where you find out about her lover. On my first PT. PTs since, I've tried to see the good sides. Do we know if we ALWAYS get a spa day with Viv? Even if she hates you? Or maybe just any friendship at all?

From the diary of Elena Lavellan "Written in Caer Bronach: This place is damp. I'm sick of the damp. The rain might have slacked off, but I'm not sure I'll ever by dry again. My best armour got so much mildew that I've had to change it for something different.
The Inquisition has another Keep now. Lelliana's people have taken it over. They're welcome to it, Skyhold may be cold but at least it's dry. That Mayor is going to get it for forcing me to get involved in this place. Just got to catch him first.
Now the road is open I can get on with finding this Warden friend of Hawke's. Better be a bit cautious though, some of the assassins wandering the area don't belong to Lelliana."

So regardless if you recruit her, or not, she'll always be at the Winter Palace during Trespasser. You may not know each other personally, but she'll try to get on the Inquisitor's good side anyway. She can always use the "The Inquisitor and I had a Spa day" in her beloved Game.

Woke up Sunday with a migraine. After a long nap in a quiet dark room I took my Cullenmance Elf into Decent. Nothing like Cullen cuddles and the Deep Roads full of dwarves & darkspawn to make one feel better.

Gilli Perhaps you were thinking of Sera? Sera appears during spa day, still doing the ham thing, even if you didn't recruit her or kicked her out. But, no, Viv isn't there if you don't recruit her. Jaega missed out on Spa Day as a result.
