Anyone who's killed any of them got any tips for the dragons? I gave the one in the Hinterlands a trial run but by the time I got it to land my party had four potions left and didn't end well.
You're gonna want weapons that do extra damage to Dragons and weapons that deal damage to their particular weaknesses.
You are also going to want to have all your potions as well.
In addition you might need some armor that has resistances to the dragon's strength. The hinterland one shoots Fire. I.e. Get some flame resistance.
An all melee party isn't going to cut it. You're going to need at least another party member that has ranged attacks.
I'd suggest being a level or 2 stronger than it. Again the Hinterland one I believe is at level 12 so shoot for level 13 or 14.
Lolol. good point
I know! Everything I have can't be used by my class. I mean armor, weapons, nothing. Everything I pick up is for another class and it sucks. I want a better bow and armor but I have tons of s*** that neither I, or anyone else in my party can use.
Hmm, I'm not sure. With this character, I just saved my perks and spent several at a time to test them. I haven't even respec'd yet officially, so I'm hoping for the best.
What are specialization points? I must not have gotten that far in the game yet or not sure what you mean.
That is silly advice. It is almost impossible to do this. Every time I go to progress the main the story I get distracted by herds of Bears, or by shards, damsels in distress, Giants fighting Dragons...etc28 hours and I've just reached the castle. I feel like the game is only starting up now. That advice on leaving the Hinterlands and progressing the game was solid.
Ugh, I wish they would get the crashes sorted. I was playing with graphics settings to see what I can do to make it run the best and have the best graphics, and i swear it has crashed like 5 times in the last half hour just walking around checking the fps.
I have made it several hours before with no crash. Apparently, a lot of people are having this problem. I have to keep windows task manager up on my second monitor (minimized at least) because it makes it easier to close the game when it crashes. I also have to save quite often.
Not to sound dumb, but you can save anytime & multiple files right? I hate those single save check point saving. When your file is corrupted, you are pretty much screwed.
So its like Mass effect. Cool.You can save anywhere unless in combat (or sometimes near combat...). You have an autosave and as many save files as you want. Each character you make gets their own saves slots as well to make it easy if you want to try more than one class for testing.
Do you guys agree Rogue is best class. I am getting the game soon (after work), so I hope to hear from you guys.
Rogue has been pretty fun for me. The archer tree is enjoyable to me, but I can see how others don't like it. The one thing I noticed, is that your skills vary depending on where you're attacking from. My arrows have done a high damage of 80 to a low of like 13. Archers have very particular settings you need to understand. I shoot from distance from elevation and usual get about 50 points per arrow. If you position yourself in front of your opponent, or at a position that gives you a good shot at their head, you land headshots, and that will give you most points per shot.
In the beginning of the game, you don't need many of the other skill sets. I'd level up an entire skill set before I i start to work on others, as an archer that is. I do wish that there were more options that benefited archers though.
Do full draw at elevation and long distance( further away you are the more damage it does). I do that and it kills many enemies in one shot. With the upgrade it will knock them out( those who withstand one shot) which allows you to run up and do leaping shot at pretty close range( does more damage) then I throw a few fire grenades(AOE, yay) on the battlefield before going stealth and retreating back to higher ground.
anybody do the tyrdda bright axe inquistion mission? did you just leave your console on?

Just got myself a castle, yay.
Yeah that fight was a bitch. Not as much as defending the trebuchets. I had to run back to Haven to avoid bad guys and happened to find more supply caches. That was a f***ing blessing because I was starting to say how bulls*** the game got for leaving me with just one potion refill in such a big fight.Thanks, I'll make that happen.
I don't know if any of you guys have faced the Envy Demon, but holy f*** I just pulled some Miracle s***. 2 of my squad had like 20% health, I had two health potions and my health was low along with Solas. Getting through that was tough but man did it feel good to pull it off. This game is amazing, I can see myself playing through it quite a few times.
More games need quality like this.

Now I just got to skyhold. Really looking forward to fixing this place up. I also just got mark of the rift. I'm having trouble figuring this thing out. I see little diamonds build up next to my abilities but how much does it have to fill to charge up?
Cool thanks. And do you know when specializations open up?Yeah, it has to charge up. I think it adds to the charge each time you or a party member do a successful hit on an enemy. And the charge holds, even if you return to sky hold.
Guys, I'm out of this thread. It frustrates me so much to see you guys making a progress through a 100+ hour long game while I wait for gender fix and others. Even more frustrating is that I'm leaving the one thread in the entire UVGF where everybody's talking about an actual game. And frustration aside I think I'm going to see spoilers here and there in this thread. Gaaaaaaaaaaaaah see ya later.
What fixes you mean?
[PC] Gender Swapped text
- A small number of users playing as male are getting female responses and romance options. We are aware of the issue and are looking into it.
- If you don't want to wait for a fix, restart your character and do the following during character creation: Change your gender a couple of times, e.g. if you want to roll a male, select male then female and back to male, alternatively with female character select female, male, then female.
