Just finished my attempt to do nightmare at the lowest possible level. In the end it turned out to be level 15.

I was level 13 walking into the Last Straw, the Orsinos fight gave me 2 levels.

Did this by recruiting noone that wasn't manditory, doing only main quests, avoiding fights by being charming, and not picking up codex/crafting.

End team was Spirit healer hawk, merrill, avaline and varric. Chose spirit healer to give enough tank to get through on such a low level.

Few things I noticed:
  • Since alot of armour appear per quest and don't scale, ultimately hawk ends up with very strong armour by end of act 1. Act 3 I had 92% armour from champion/cumberland mage armour.
  • Most of act 1 is manditory, hardly anything from the next 2 acts.
  • Takes a long time to get CCCs going since avaline needs to get level 10 for staggers.
  • Real issue with money. Could barely afford to get deep roads trip and the 2-3 makers sighs I used.
  • No crafting, so not many runes. However most of the hard fights where they are needed, are not manditory, so not done.
  • Enemies are scalled, so actually fights aren't harder once you get a basic set of skills.
Anyone else tried this? Whats the lowest level you can attain?

Nice! Sounds like a fun challenge. What difficulty did you do it in? Who is optional besides Isabela, Sebastian, and Fenris?

Ops sorry forgot to say. I was on nightmare.

Edit: nvm I say at beginning.

Also yes Sebastian, Isabela and Fenris are the optional ones which I skipped. Skipped companion quests too when possible (although I'm not sure if "the way it should be" for avaline is skippable).


With only 3 people its pretty easy to get them all to 100% friendship. I ended up ignoring anders the entire time except for the act 2 ending (since merrill was primal, and qunari are immune to lightning. Anders was frost/spirit).

Ack, I'm sorry, I missed reading that. I'd definitely like to try that after my mage solo playthrough.

You do know shield bash + pummel is level 6.
Mage aquires Chain Lightning and Chain Reaction by level 6.

lol

Ah true. I always relied upon the vanguard tree.

Apparently you can skip that quest. Aveline will still end up captain of the guard but Fault and Favour shouldn't trigger in act 3.

Any quest without a major quest marker is skipable. You can do all main plot quests and trigger Dougal very early.
