Ello. Picked up Dragon age again after a long time.

This time I am passing with a mage again, and was looking around if you can have 3 blood controls at the same time?


I ask because, I was hoping to have 3 animated dead... and turns out you can onl have 1 of the guys at any given time, so my concern is whether or not the same happens to BLood Control?

[Spartas Husky]

bump. Nobody has tried multiple BLood Controls at once?

[Spartas Husky]

bump? lol

[Shadow of Light Dragon]

Well, if you're that eager to find out, hold on. I'll roll a Blood Mage in Awakenings and get back to you with an answer in a tick

[Shadow of Light Dragon]

It might be possible if the spell refreshes before your thrall dies. I couldn't manage it in the short time I played.

[Spartas Husky]

My mistake, I did not explain it enough. What I ment is.

if I have 3 mages, all with 3 blood control, can I have 3 puppets?

Or does Blood Control work in the same way as "animate dead" in which, If I raise a skeleton, when Morrigan raises hers, it kills my own skeleton, only allowing one "minion" at any given time.

was wondering if Blood control only allows 1 "minion" under control at one time.

PS:

Example:

PC (me) casts Blood control, and successfuly brings one foe under my control.

Then... Morrigan CAsts Blood Control, and successfuly as well. Does the action of Morrigan having a minion of her own means it cancels my own Minion like in Animated dead?

Ah, I understand. Unfortunately I can't test that one for you.

[Last Darkness]

On the PC, yes, you can have as many as you want.



On a Console due to technical limitations you can only have one "Pet" designated type of character for your whole party. Blood Control, Ranger Summons, Animated Dead. Only one for teh whoel party.

[soteria]

I don't know why that should matter. Blood Control doesn't make the target a "pet" like the summons do. It just makes the target an ally. My guess is you can have as many blood controlled targets as you have mages.

waii wait wait... wa?

Meaning if Leliana has a pet? I can't use animated dead without killing the pet?

So you can't have 1 animated dead, 1 blood control, 1 pet? adding 3 in total?

Yes, on consoles theres 1 pet limit for the whole party. It will "kill" the previus pet.

[Spartas Husky]

............well that officially does it. DA is going back underneath my bed until jesus returns.



Thanks for the feedback everyone.

[Shadow of Light Dragon]

Ah, don't give up. You can play through the game without any pets at all. Just enjoy it using different skills.

[Spartas Husky]

Nah, I dont mind DA, it just has been one drawback after the other.



For some reason, my specialization only unlock to the local career.

Ever snice the patch for RTo... its been a nightmare duno why.



Before, there were no problems, I had 3 playthroughs but.



I made a new tank, unlocked everything except of course blood mage, started a mage... he had nothing, no spirit amge, AW, sten didn't have champion nothing. Kept going just in case, unlocked everything as my 5th playthrough....



I checked my other career tank.... blood mage wasn't there even though I unlocked it in my 2nd mage.





If it wasn't because the specialties dont carry over anymore for some reason I would not mind.

DOnt get me wrong, my first tank unlocked everything, my 2nd mage had everything carried over from my first tank, and 2nd tank had everything too. But from my 3rd playthrough onwards its been weird...



Made a short rogue on the 6th playthroughs... same deal, he had no specializations, the specialties only remain unlock to the local career, no matter what. Otherwise I would be playing it a more. . But nah, Reach is coming, force unleash is too, so wth .



Tried hex editing attributes to make it a bit more fun... but damn can't get to seem to get a hang of the hex editor.



Cheers enjoy DA, it is a very good game nevertheless.

[Daryn Mercio]

Blood control just makes the target an ally or thrall. Not a pet such as the animated dead. So I assume yes, you can have 3 thralls

lol tell me about it... is just feels a brand new playthrough every time. lol

Still first 3 playthroughs were a blast

[chefbobby203]

Mind Controlled NPCs don't count as party members, just allies(like the militia in redcliffe for example). You should be able to control more than one....

[Spartas Husky]

thanks alot for the replies, maybe I'll find out during the weekend.. I can always pass awakening in a hurry to see how it works.

I had a similar issue after downloading RtO (though I got it before they realized the patch was bad). Here's what I had to do to fix the problem on the 360:



1. Delete the patch from the system. Doing so must be done from the Dashboard, and will remove all patches from all games, but popping those games in again will re-download them.



2. Fire up Dragon Age. Since the bad patch was removed, you'll be asked to download the latest one, which has no problems.



3. Fire up a game, and unlock a specialization.



4. Move away from the spot you were at when you unlocked the specialization (apparently this is an important step).



5. Save, shut off the system, then turn it on and reload the save you just made.



6. Level up.



That method worked for me, and I've had all specializations unlocked again after doing it. I will say, though, that it's been a while, and I'm not 100% sure I've gotten all the steps down. It sounds right, but I may have missed something.



Also, I've no idea how to go about fixing it if you're on the PC, so if you are, then I apologize for being of no help.

Thank you... but sorry to say it didnt work.

1.I went to dash board. Deleted the pathces.. CC as its called.

2. Linked up to the internetz and downloaded latest patch.

3. Started The game, and I have a save file, right before talking to the arcane warrior spirit., so I unlocked it.

4. IN leaving... I just backtracked, got out of the temple, out of the forest and took a trip to denerim? is that enough?

5. After moving to denerim I saved the game. Turned off my console, turn it back on, reloaded that denerim file. And did two things. Went to lv up. Saved my file, Also, I used a tome, so I had 2 saves, one that lved up, and 1 that used a tome.


This was done with my 2nd mage, 5th playthrough.

Then loaded 4th playthrough, my tank. Morrigan didn't have arcane warrior, sten didn't have champion...the specializations still are only unlocked locally.


Thank you very much for the help though :wub:

EDIt:... have no idea why, but I tried your idea again around 4 times.... no idea what order I changed but it worked ... so damn happy. Finally my specs are unlocked.

Thanks a bunch.

[Last Darkness]

SPartas have you deleted your gamer tag, then did a recovery of it yet so it refreshes your tag on your system? That what worked for me and unlocked several achivments that didnt unlock before.



Go to your tag and delete it, then do recover gamertag.

[Spartas Husky]

nah never have recovered or anything. not even sure how to do it.



But it worked. I did CC... reloaded saves, played, lv uped, used tomes to lv up... I dont know what order or what exactly I did. But my stuff works now.



Thanks for all the help btw.

[swk3000]

Glad I could help.
