My Mage PC beat Loghain silly, Glyphs and Paralysis, plus Crushing Prison, is cheap.
Is it true that there was dialouge if you used Blood Magic in the Landsmeet. It would make sense since there are templars there who can see you.
In the duel he's a Lieutenant rank opponent. If he's made join the player as companion he's demoted to rank of regular grunt so PC's ego isn't threatened with someone else's superiority.Giggles_Manically wrote...
How come Loghain can lost so long in the duel, yet in the final battle he keeps dying! Although he did kill 3 ogres in the market!
Perhaps he pulled a muscle or threw out his back in the duel but, being Loghain, refuses to admit it.tmp7704 wrote...

So Loghain IS the Archdemon.tmp7704 wrote...
It's even more sad when you consider he starts as Boss rank opponent in the opening brawl. From hero to zero in single Landsmeet.

Eamon is a ruthless guy, or as some people would eloquently call him: A dick.
People tend to assume that since Eamon was in charge of raising Alistair and he tells you that it was made very clear to him that he'd never go near the throne so they blame all his insecurity and self-doubt on him. And Alistiar often goes around saying things like he slept in the kennel and Eamon sent him off to the Chantry when he was ten because Isolde threw a hissy-fit. Then once Eamon wants a Theirin King and no one else is avaiable all of a sudden he starts caring again? That said, I actually like Eamon.Lord Gremlin wrote...

I got the impression that Eamon was a die-hard traditionalist who genuinely believes that bloodlines are the most important aspect for determining rank and status, particularly when deciding who is worthy to sit on the throne.

I hate politicans as a whole, and the way they were shown in DA was so true to life. Its like hello the horrible genocidal horde of demon spawn is coming and you are all "supping" with each other. The only time I agreed with Loghain in game is that Nobles are arse faces. Although trying to start my own Demcratic revolution would have been cool to do. MOB RULE FUREVER!
He said that the Landsmeet was not only their best option if they wanted to bring Loghain down but their only option. They needed someone with a better claim to the throne then Anora (who had no real claim but was already there and nobody really seemed to care since they were focused on Loghain's regency) and the best he could come up with was Alistair who was a bastard and unrecognized plus knows nothing about what he needs to do. It's a strong enough cases to call the Landsmeet but the nobles all think Anora knows what she's doing and Loghain is a competent general for her armies and they note that they really don't have time for this with the Blight getting more serious.Asdara wrote...

This.
Was it just me? Or did he present the Landsmeet idea as a completely strong option that would be well under his guidance only to turn around the minute after Loghain makes him soil his drawers to say "We have a very weak position" and send me on errands go to dirt-hunting? I know the guy is just recovering from poison and demonic magic and such but c'mon!
I believe Anora is worth three noble's votes.Giggles_Manically wrote...
How many votes does it take to win the Landsmeet, there are
5 Nobles
Anora
Chantry
I believe each of them counts as one vote, or does Anora, The Chantry, or that noble you pick up in the Crow quest actually count as more than one.
Not only blood lines, but the legend of Calenhad. And he is not wrong. Ferelden is a loose confederation of free tribes and there is little that binds them other than a few cultural touchstones and some shared history. Calenhad's legend is a powerful one of these. Even though it is somewhat an illusion (Loghain was the brains behind Maric, for instance), it was Moira and later Maric who rallied the rebellion. If you cede Theirin pre-eminence in the royal pecking order, then it becomes a squabble for who gets 2nd, 3rd, 4th or whichever spot ends up left standing when the dust settles. Eamon wants to avoid a War of the Roses scenario.Hanz54321 wrote...

That's about right. I'd bet most of the people on this thread, however, will go with the position that Eamon's traditionalism is what makes him weak. Eamon fails to look at things practically.
I think Eamon is a good guy but overly idealistic. It says somewhere in the codexes or in some writer's game notes that Eamon is the guy everybody likes, but he's not really a rainmaker. The nobles forget about him until he says something.
Anyway - I'd agree with your assessment. I'd also say the sharks will chew him up on a thread like this.
