and he already said 250 health should be more than enough, pump will if you're going berserker and keep around 40 strength.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

HEALTH IS TO TASTE, 225-250 SHOULD BE THE GOAL
ENOUGH STR TO EQUIP WEAPONS AND KEEP YOUR ATK DECENT
THE REST INTO WIL

Don't you already get enough entertainment out of laughing at me for this?

Seriously though I do need to give this build another try.

lol I did manage to fry Varric a couple of times.  Stupid dwarf keeps running around and putting himself in the worst possible positions. I think I'm gonna switch his behavior to ranged, so maybe then he will stop having constant death wishes.
Also, why didn't you include Rock Armor for Anders in this build? Poor squishy bastard is squishy, and when Vengeance is active, he gets pwned so fast sometimes, that he doesn't even have the time to turn it off, let alone heal himself. lol

So far, I kinda like the whole high-risk, high-reward thing from this build. But sometimes it seems more trouble than it's worth. I think adding a bit more survivability and subtlety to your squad would make gameplay much more smoother. But that's just me.

rock armor makes an already mana-starved character even worse. if everyone is doing their jobs, and you have blood of my enemy, he should have no problems staying alive. as i said in the notes, if you have your companions set to 'aggressive', and you place them on hold, it will not disrupt their tactics firing (so long as they are in range), like other behavior settings will.

i posted this build knowing the risks and rewards it entails full and well, and place my faith in you, the guide readers, to be good enough to pull it off. i hope my faith is not misplaced.

or i could've just posted another boring mashfest like the vanilla one i had. people will be unhappy either way.

Don't get me wrong, I'm wasn't trying to complain or anything. I get what you envisioned with this build, and like I said, I like the overall high-risk high-reward concept of it. I guess it will just take some more getting used to, since it is a somewhat unconventional build. I have had some minor annoyances so far, but nothing I couldn't handle.

Hey Arelex does Attack % affect our DPS quite a bit?
I'm at 70% with buffs on to Bosses and I was wondering If it was worth using maybe the Vague Blade for 100% attack?

Also do you find immunity to crits to be valuable?

Thanks in advance.

I don't care about defensive skills, they are best ignored for damage, so Perception and whatever is no good.

Vague Blade might be a pretty good idea, but you'll have to side with Meredith at the beginning of Act III to get it, and I can already hear the legions of RP'ers whining at me for that.

Thumbs up to the guy who suggested Insatiable, also.

I know your opinion on the patch (and I agree with it), but I need to ask this: which class do you find most fun (no matter how small this fun is compared to pre-patch) now? Is it the SnS Berserker just to prove that the nerf-bat missed its target?

Isabela build has been added to the op, along with a showcase video:

Berserker Vanguard - Isabela Edition 2.0

Hope all you pirate skank fans enjoy.

Probably the new warrior build/party setup I've posted, it's ridiculously strong if you have good control of your rudder. DW Rogue is a complete and utter faceroll, and I haven't done too much with mage yet.

Whatprogram do you use to make videos on your 360 and is there a similar program for PS3?

Yay, Isabela!

Totes using this with my next character. Go update your Mage guide so I can think about my current character. Heaven forbid I should have as my sole resource The Worst Player's crit-mage guide.

It's not really a program. To capture video, you need a capture device (i'm using the EZcap DC60), a program to record the video (I use Ulead Video Studio), and a program to edit the video (I use Sony Vegas Pro 10).

well, when you ask so nicely, how can I say no?

p.s - 'the worst player' must always be lower-case

he is not worth the pressure on the shift key

(i do shudder to think of a world where mr afk is the only source of information)

Awesome Isabella build AreleX. Gonna try it right away.

I like the tactics, especially this one. Such a simple and effective life saver. Genius.
Enemy: DISORIENTED - Use current condition for next tactic
Anders: Any - Back-to-Back

Also, I would like to ask his Highness for his expert opinion on "The Empress's Point" (2H sword from the dlc pack). Obviously, it's one of the strongest 2H's in the game, so I was thinking of slaping a primeval + devastation rune to it in Act 3 and slash through enemies at super sonic speeds (haste + barrage + fervor + primeval rune + swords +11% speed + Isabella passive = pwnage at insane speeds). So, do you think it is worth enchanting the primeval rune to it, or would something like Bloom or Sundering be a better choice for Act 3?
