I hope Templar's will get some offensive attacks and not just defensive stuff.......

Wasn't a big fan of 2H Reaver and Berserker in Origins, but Templar fit quite nicely in my build, so I might take a similar route this time as well. Assuming the specializations are even similar to what they were in Origins.

well according to the devs both rogues and warriors are fighter archetipes so.....if you really want to DW play a rogue

Warriors tho have default AoE swings now

Yeah but rogues have moved away from that in DA2 to become acrobatic ninjas. If you want to create a skilled duelist type warrior in DA2 you can't whereas you were exactly that as a rogue in DAO. 

As for the specs, champion etc obviously to even up the talents between the 3 classes they moved champion to become a standard talent tree rather than a spec. I'm personally disappointed reaver is there, with the explanations for how one can't become an Arcane Warrior in DA2 because there's no-one to teach it how can one become a reaver which came specifically from the dragon cult.

I see more Rogues have become the 1 on 1 dps fighter and warriors are now the AOE dps fighters

but then again maybe I am not that sensitive about it because I'll be playing a warrior

I don't usually play warriors, because I'd rather not have combat be a visceral experience. I'd prefer a more detached approach. In DAO I was even temted to mod out the casting animations for mages to make them a purely cerebral combatant with no physical aspect at all.

With DA2's general move toward viscera, warriors look even less appealing to me than they did before. I only hope that mages remain as non-visceral as I would like.

Now I'll have to decide whether to play a warrior or rogue first. I really enjoy playing a warrior, but rogue is interesting as well (love dual wield). I think I may have to wait until I see the rogue trees and specializations to decide.

Aww, sad Gaurdian didn't make it. Best nightmare warrior I ever had was Oghren in Awakening with Gaurdian and I had him full strength in training but all equips were for constitution and oh man, we couldn't die, it was impossible, only time someone did die was because Nathienal freaking fired off burst shot then rain of arrows with all dex training, whoops, redo Nates tatics, lol.

I hope Reaver is better this time, only skill that was useful they had was frightening appeareance to help pull aggro and hold one enemy still. Devour never seemed to work right and the other two skills required a mage to permanted attached to their butt healing them, which was silly cuz it was more effective for said mage to be tossing CC/hexes and some dps like mana clash/stonefist on petrified enemies, etc.

I never really liked Templar, didn't see the point. Their abilities are pointed towards being antimage but.. uh... MANA CLASH pwns all the Templar talents, lol. Just kill the damn mage in 2 seconds with one aoe spell - that can clear out entire rooms of mages and demons if your spellpower is good, lol. Least in DA, mana clash might have gotten gimped for DA2, if not removed. :(

I really hope 2H's still get indomibale, that's hands down my fav sustain for a warrior, set it and forget it and viola, no more getting knocked down or stunned. Tis why I prefer 2H's over W/S and I foresee me rolling with Fenris instead of Aveline.

Oh I'm playing warrior in preference to rogue because of the changes to rogue. 2H looks really good now. I doubt I'll do a rogue play through at all except maybe as an archer.

YES! Reaver! I might even be tempted to play a warrior first playthrough. I hope with templars the holy smites 'righteous fire' actually does look a bit like a flame. I didnt really like the animation in origins.

I weep not for Champion and Guardian, not because I disliked them or anything, but because I figure their major skills will be transferred to the more direct Warrior trees. I mean, who needs Warcry when Tremor does the job even better?

The specialisations in DA:O didn't really do anything for me either. Usually picked up Champion (which has been said is pretty much rolled into standard talents now) and then Templar at level 14 (the other two don't appeal to my play style at all) and I figured it was better to pick something than nothing.



Still going to roll a sword and shield warrior to start with though. Just hope the threat mechanics are a little better this time around. Having enemies run past me to attack the archer that hasn't done anything to them yet was annoying.

I would go warrior, but alas it would appear the venerable spear/polearm is not going to be in the game again.

I'm thinking warrior first play-through, though I am a little sad to see the abscense of Champion. Still, there's something inherently badass about a guy (or gal) who goes toe to toe with a dragon without a second thought.

Templar and Reaver! The 2 specializations I picked are back again and the 2 I'll try to max out first.I'll be going with wielding 2-handed weapons.

As long as Berserker and Reaver aren't lackluster as they are in Origins, I can live with Champion being cannibalized into other trees,

Warrior is always my first. Shining knight of justice!



Hard to say, probably going to go sword and board. Interesting trees though. Can't wait to see what's in them.

Sorry to say but, i think you would be dissapointed. If you watch the demo gameplay mages is highly visceral. They also have swordstaffs and all.
