I was just wondering what are the consequences of accepting Dougal's coin in Dragon Age 2.  Does it affect much in the game?

[Sussurus]

Not that I've seen.. it seems to add more in a beneficial way than actually penalise.

I think it's an "out" for the player, a McGuffin like FO:NV's cap to get onto the strip check.

The coin is just away to show how important it is, and what you're willing to sacrifice to get to the deep roads.
Dugal is there to allow you to spend that coin you earned on something that actually helps play the game.

Like better armour and weapons so you don't end up with 0% in every stat by chapter 2.

Who is this Jerk man giraffe dog jerk that keeps posting this crap. I think he should be banned.

[Fieryeel]

You get slightly different dialogues at the start of Act 2 too.

[TEWR]

don't you have to pay him 100 sovereigns or something at the start of Act 2?


And also, someone should really ban this dude spamming pictures. Seriously devs and moderators, that's all I've ever seen him post. He never contributes anything. It really pisses me off. I mean come on! He's picspamming!

I got a warning for picspamming because I posted one or two pictures every 4 pages over the course of 10 total pages.


He just posted like 25 on one page.

He certainly asks for it, doesn't mean you have to pay him.

so you can be a douche and kill him? Cool!

What's the extra side quest?

[Cyberfrog81]

And he's an assassin type fighter. Joy of joys.

There is also a tiny bit more stuff with Bodahn/Sandal and Mother.

[JFarr74]

Do you guys think its a good idea to agree to his deal?

[Sussurus]

Free money, extra quest, more XP... yes.
Take his deal, buy all the tomes that boost talents and attributes, laugh at the out you've been given.

It's not free money.

If you didn't take his deal, then Sandal would present your deep roads earnings of 50g to you at the start of Act II.

if you took his deal, then you don't earn anything as you had to pay him back once, this first payment is unavoidable.

However, he comes to your house in Act II to ask for an extra 100g, this one is optional, if you refuse to pay, you would fight him later.

Think I would've preferred it if he actually carried out his threat and made life interesting for Hawke by spreading those rumors, especially when I already had a pissed off Magistrate fuming about me killing his son.

Violence really does solve everything, whodathunk?

[Sussurus]

Nevermind.. wrong something or other.

That's wat I was thinking!  How much money though do you begin with at Act 2 though?

[Sussurus]

If you take his deal whatever you had on you at the end of act 1.
I think last run I had around 90+ gold.

If you don't take the deal.. Fieryeel explains it better than I did.

you pay 50 gold, so if you had 70 you'd have 20 in the deeproads.
Then you could earn another 20 there, after the deeproads you get 50 back in chapter two.
Making it 90.. so really you gain the same, or don't lose out.

But it gives you the chance to buy expensive one off items in chapter one, like the tomes.

So either way, you might make the same amount of money?

sadly just more examples of how no choice we make really has any effect on anything. the Magistrate bit had so much potential too, and Gavorn's rumourmongering could have led to some interesting consequences playing as a Hawke with a less than perfect reputation

If you accept Dougal's coin then he gives it to you but you don't get the 50 coin that you get from Bodahn as return from the expedition at the start of the Act II (instead that is payed to Dougal for letting your borrow 50 gold in Act I)

At the start of Act II Dougal tries to get you to pay him an extra 50 gold, you can refuse if you want and he will be angry and later in a random encounter he attempts to kill you.

First, why does he want more gold?  Second, can you pay him (i won't....but I'm just wondering)?

[Sussurus]

I think you can, but it really is not worth it.

It's simple blackmail, pay up or else... the or else is a fight that is very easy tbh.
I may roleplay the payment sometime just to see what happens but for a first time I'd take the deal.
Then deal with him with violence.
