Wynne is a must in every party you make, cause she heals, ressurrects and cure injuries.

In terms of pure entertainment value and not which characters are necessarily my favorites?

Zevran, Shale, Oghren. These three have silly interactions with pretty much any other character you could throw into a party.

I usually have Leliana in my group, as she's my favorite among your rag-tag band of misfits... but her interactions are only ocassionally funny. Usually she takes a more serious stance even in conversation with sillier party members.

No nnot a must mori is a good healer/supporter...and much more fun to have in the party

[Killian Kalthorne]

Morrigan, Wynne, and Shale is a good mix up. Not only you have pretty interesting RP banter between all of them, some of it can be quite catty if you are playing a male character, but how each one interacts with each other is funny.

[AsheraII]

Apart from "me", "myself" and "I"?

It depends a lot on the combination of companion you pick.

-You should always combine Oghren with a female partymember, preferably Wynne or Leli.

-Morri + Sten also gives nice banter, they definitely have some uhmmmm chemistry going, lol

-Morri also has some interresting discussions with both Leli and Alistair. Mostly due to Morri being their opposite

-Alistair + Leli + Wynne gives a comfy happy family feeling, only the kittens and the white picket fence is missing here. They're making jokes of each other, but always in some joyful way.

-Zevran and Shale I find more focussed towards the PC than towards bantering. They chip in, but are usually more fun in conversation with the PC



As for gameplay.. That's a tough one, but I'd say, try out a different setup for your party on every playthrough. One with as many mages as you can get, one without any mages, some with only 1 or 2 mages. Also try the different mage specs, a spirit or entropy mage plays entirely different from an elemental one. Same applies to warriors: to sword & board or not to sword & board. A party without a warrior at all makes for a challenge as well. You can do it with a rogue for example, but agro will be slightly harder to maintain.

In future, I also plan to make an opposite team, where members purposely won't agree over choices, and not use ANY gifts (apart from certain plot items) to keep them happy. I think it might be a challenge, to keep them together that way.

My first playthrough went well without Wynne or anyone else using healing spells I must say. She makes certain things easier to handle, that much is true, but not a single character is a "must".

[dj_tool]

thanks for the reply's.



truly I have zero interest in "effectiveness", just which companions are going to be the most interesting to talk to and learn about.



'hot' is not a deciding factor either, i'm afraid.

She is more of a "must" than other characters though. Sten can be replaced by Oghren, for example. Leliana with Zevran.

Sure you "could" make Morrigan your healer, but then you'd be lacking offensive spellpower.

I only got two favs



Shale is cool. Interesting unit. Cool lines. Funny.



Zevran is amusing also. He can be allowed to be a fairy with a silly accent, because he's got some fun lines.

[KilrB]

Whichever three I'm currently using.



Last game it was Alister, Morrigan, Wynne.



This time through it's, mostly, Oghren, Sten, Morrigan.

[montana_boy]

Morigan, Alister & Wynee... this combo is the best in conversations between the three. Morigan being the wisenheimer, Wynee the "oh so up-right and honest one" and Alister not knowing exactley what the heck is going on. Ya gotta love Alister though.

[DragonRageGT]

I can't really choose after they all giving me 15 movies with some hilarious passages and some pretty decent battle movies too but the ones I used the most were Oghren/Sten, Alistair and Leliana and Sten, Alistair and Morrigan.

[Enoch VG]

Interesting characters:



Wynne. Her borderline-fatalism makes her an interesting twist on the straightforward kind-teacher trope.

Shale. A little one-note, but that one joke is good enough to merit some repeating, and there is a neat side-quest.

Sten. Mostly in that he provides insight into the most interesting and alien culture in the DA setting.



Al and Morrigan really didn't do it for me. Mostly because the game seemed to be trying too hard to get the player to like them (a cheezy way to make certain late-game story decisions more difficult for the player).

[Bibdy]

Leliana - The religious type who isn't stuck up their own ass.

Oghren - Nothing bad about beer-swilling, red-haired, angry dwarves with big two-handed axes.

Sten - Trying to impress the token Borg guy is fun.

That´s what I was trying to say

[DCS1987]

I'm on my first playthrough so I'm unsure as to how things will change but here goes...

Alastair - He's a funny guy and often disapproves of my choices (Redcliffe) so I have to pay a lot of mind to how he will react.

Morrigan - It's hard not to like someone so sarcastic, direct and yet conflicted (however slightly). Her dialogue and options are well written and good fun.

Wynne - So far she provides good conversations on the nature of the unfolding events. Gives you something to ponder.

[vashts1985]

wynne and shale, or wynne and oghren. always some good convos between them



morrigan and alistair are fun together.



Leiana has been a constant in my party for 2 playthroughs now because shes the only rouge that has a good start on lockpicking, so i dont really know about a third

[Mentant98]

The Dog gets alot of knocks on this board, but he is one of my favorites: I try to work him in wherever I can. No, he can't talk, but there is some "banter" between companions and him. He finds you fun stuff, occasionally interjects in conversation anyway, and well, is a huge wardog.



His antics usually make me smile too. But I'm a dog person anyways.

[Guardian4379]

Alistair is a bro, he always has something funny to say.

I like Leliana's personality, she's always my romance option when I create a character.

And Sten because even when he is in a good mood he is purpetually looking like ">=[" which is hilarious.

i like dog, shale, sten, and wynn the most i think.

alistair is whiny and i dont understand how he can be a warrior at all really. morrigan and leliana are both there for your personal e-sex needs which makes them sort of trashy to me. oghren is just an idiot, and zev is gay and im not.

oghern/wynne/shale plus a rouge you create!

[blademaster7]

Oghren's dialoge is pure gold. The guy is hilarious. I regret for not using him much.



Alistair is always funny. Morrigan too. but those two are obvious.



I might give Zevran a try on my next next playthrough.

[Blood-Pool]

My personal Favorites Game-play wise are Alistar, Oghren, and Wynne. Entertainment wise, however, Morrigan, Alistar, and War dog are by far the funniest . Although, I counldn't stop laughing when Oghren said without shame that he would "roll" Wynne.

[JaegerBane]

Personal fave team is Alistair, Leliana and Shale. Some of the conversations are hilarious, and as a team, they work really well together (Leliana at range, Alistair close-up, and Shale being the battering-ram equivalent of both)
