Since DA2 is comming and I havent played game in a while, I decided to make perfect save for the sequel. And since I never had guts or patience to try soloing nightmare, I decided to give it a shot.
I picked my favorite, mage. And whats even worse, Arcane Warrior.
You must be saying "Ha, thats lame, anyone can do it with AW mage."
Well, you are right, so I decided to spice things a little.
- No further AW skills except first one, never use AW mode.
...Diversity and badassness of plate armors in the game are high, at the other
hand, robes are lame. And without some armor, my character takes 2 hits and is dead.
Now he can survive 5!
- No primal magic.
...I havent picked any single Primal spell, since so far and Im not planing to pick any of them.
I just use other means of damage.
- Health potions: allowed.
...Even if I can manage to do encounters without them, bad groups can take several reloads and I dont have patience and time for that. Challenge isnt that ultimate, I can live with that
- and ofcourse, No Party.
...With one exception. Sometimes I bring undead to fight at my side. But thats cool I guess ^^
Main Weapons:
Walking Bomb, Bigger Walking Bomb. I picked those random spells at first with no respect towards them, but now I love them. Put bomb, kite around the tree, let him explode and kill his comrade. Its so satisfying
Paralysis, Mass Paralysis. Paralysis was here mainly because of annoying casters. Then I added Mass Paralysis and voila, my ultimate weapon was born! Paralyse entire group, throw both Bombs, run away and let them kill in massive bloody explosion. HAHAHA!
Force Field. Drop bombs, FF myself, watch those peons die in explosion. Simple process full of joy.
Buffs, Protections, Heals, Glyphs. Variety of weapons to get bunch of backup tricks up in my sleeve. Just in case anything goes (and will) go wrong.
I must say Ive never had this much fun with DA so far. Gameplay is very different from my normal games. I learned tricks how to lead enemies into tricks, how to use line of sight in my advantage, how to avoid traps. Game is more action packed, since it relies on almost constant moving of my character, etc...
I really recommand it for anyone who wants to try something else.
