Yeahh.. my main problem is that my party members split up, some running off in one direction then the other. This means that CCCs aren't really happening because no one is there to take advantage of status effects.

Haha don't worry, you'll see some videos. But probably with me disguising my shoddy times by making it a 'compliation'. Most of the videos are for my thread - trying to demonstrate that my crit-mage concept and idea is a viable and worthy build to consider. Basically i'm mucking around with physical and spirit spells instead of dropping fireturds on people. I've got some early act 2 videos up on my thread but theyre pretty terrible.

However, I'll see if I can beat Jack-Nader...Never know. Maybe this time he'll be the one feeling insecure about his fancy rogue hawke setup hmph! :P

Didn't know you vids up! Subscribed. They don't look half bad, you can see what's going on. If you could lock the exposure that would be even better, so it doesn't go from dim to bright. If you can't, no matter, it's not irritating, just something I thought I should mention.

Good idea and glad you liked them! I'll try locking exposure now.
Usually isn't a problem unless I'm casting gravitic rings or fenris is been glowy. haha
Well, if i can't beat the 50s mark maybe i'll upload the 1:15. It's not so bad.
But i think i can improve still - so maybe i'll beat him anyway :P

Anybody know if Isabela's Savvy can make her break the 80% defense cap?

I'm sitting here trying to make her not suck.


I dont know(Herioc aura maybee).How obscure works exactly?(numbers,attack decrease for enemies???)
A lot of things are not really good explained in this game.
This helps for sure to increase the surviability of the whole party,not only isabella.
In missions where i have to use her that really helps,i addition to evade with the stun upgrade and stealth.

Well, just posting for the sake of revealing another strategy is worth it in my book!

Haha well here you go - Couldn't be bothered getting a faster time. I can always tell myself that if it weren't for the lame pauses in the beginning I would have got just under a minute which is competitive enough with Jack-Nader's time for me to be happy.

What's funny is that in terms of the video making process, I spent the most time choosing the song. I ended up using one of my favourite songs which I was intending to save for a longer compilation as for this video I had to cut it off :(

Also, I added a running commentary down the bottom, just for you.


p.s. Hopefully this proves to Arelex that I'm not the "worst player" <_<

I've watched it immediately after YouTube sent me the mail!
HINT: You might want to drop the link to your guide. You talk about it, but don't tell anyone where it is. Searching for wastingtime site:social.bioware.com would also make everyone doubt their Google-Fu. ;)

That was actually pretty good. It was very close to the way I played it as a mage.

True that could be useful haha.

I'll go add all the abilities etc (and bump up my thread) :P
i really should be sleeping though. :/

@Jack-Nader I'm glad you approve ;)

And similar besides the fact that you were an elemental mage with loads of fireballs and ice spells whereas I use merely spirit and physical? Weird. haha

I've uploaded a new tutorial video for the Nexus Golem Gauntlet, with audio commentary!

Lesson 3 - Nexus Golem Super Gauntlet

In this video, you'll see:

- How to clear the gauntlet with an all-ranged party
- Audio commentary with supplemental text to point things out
- How to open the evil tome mid-fight like a badass
- NO ANDERS! (best part by far)

I'm starting to think bioware needs to upgrade the nightmare difficulty setting.

God Arelex is a machine. Sexy too.


I quite agree, Jack Nader, I quite agree.

While I wouldn't mind it, you have to understand that we don't represent the majority of people who play Nightmare when we make it look like a joke. The amount of tears and rage could fuel the planet for decades.

Having that x factor quality of resistance to the moments of insane rage and frustration as Anders runs into the fray for the 562nd time certainly doesn't hurt the end result.

He moves even on Aggressive now. I hate the behavior AI. The control Origins offers in my latest playthrough is certainly not being taken for granted.

Btw the first installment of lessons concerning your guides are up here.

I do suppose a fair amount of levity is granted when I haven't updated the tactics in those guides for a month or two. Thank you, sir.

Yeah, I did want to at least update some of the older ones. Tried to keep it playful and not too jabby.

That Anders set is a thing of beauty if I do say so myself, which I do.

Going to have a bite to eat then start the rogue sets.  I already see quite a few improvements possible.

Dude, just let her finish.

well bad news for you, i've discovered a way to kill varnell really fast. killed him in ~10-15seconds before accidentally maker fisting one of my companions..


It's okay.  Ander's doesn't mind.

Sorry about that.  Couldn't resist.

I really enjoy those tutorial videos brazen.  For those kinds of videos, pausing is a necessity.  You can look around and show people what your strategy is, then execute that strategy.  My only suggestion would to not speak while the action is unfolding (only talk while paused) Mostly because it is hard to hear you.  There were only a couple instances where that happened anyway.  Very well done.  I'd like to see how you handle some of the longer battles if you're still doing these.  Again, great job!

mr_afk:  That's some pro maging right there.  Don't sell yourself short.  I discovered the fun of disorient/scatter on my rogue playthrough.  This combo is underrated.  Nice vid, good commentary as well.

AreleX: Do you really need more praise?  I don't think so.

What did I learn from all this?  Ask and you shall receive. Image IPB  More please.

Okay, there's one thing about this video that is driving me crazy.  What the hell staff is that?  I've seen multiple videos posted by you and others in which their character is using some staff that looks like Morrigan's from DA:O.  I have yet to find a single staff that looks like that.

Weird. I can't remember ever seeing one now. All my electrical staffs are "runed."

Corrupted: which is the bonus electrical %
Bound
Runed
