I cant stand Wynne, she died early.
Alistair's a pansy. I put him in his Templar sundress armor and leave him at the camp till he dies at the Landsmeet.
Rogues dont do as much damage while PC controled, so Zevran and Lel stay at camp also.

Regardless of wether I'm using even rogue archer or human arcane
warrior blood mage, I always roll with Sten as a two-handed Reaver,
Shale with pulverizing blow talents and flawless ice and lightning
crystals, and a Spirit Healing Morrigan with crowd control talents like
sleep and paralyze.
Sometimes I trade Oghren for Sten, depending on what type of banter I'm in the mood for.

My companions depends on which character I'm playing.

With my first good noble warrior, I've kept them all but Zevran who later turned back on me and had to die. My most active companions were Morrigan, Wynne and Leliana. (never recruited Loghain, he died)

With my first netural  city elf, it was about the same, excepted this time Zevran decided to stay with me.
Same active companions than above. (never recruited Loghain, he died)

With my first human evil mage, I've already killed Leliana because she did not like I wasted the Sacred Ashes with blood. I'm playing mostly with Morrigan, Zevran and Shale/Oghren/Sten. I suppose other companion may die again during this playthru before I finish it

Alistair sword&board tank.

Morrigan SH/AW healer.

Leliana in multiple roles. I like that girl more and more with each new game.

[mousestalker]

Depends upon my character and where we are. I like Zevran in Orzammar and the alienage. Sten is great fun in Haven and the Temple. Wynne is pure win throughout, but her dialog can get preachy. Morrigan kills me at the Circle, but tends to pall over time. Alistair is a must have at the Redcliffes. I like having both rogues for Denerim missions.

[sethroskull79]

Main Character- Mage, spirit healer/blood mage, Crushing Prison, Cold, Lightning, Fire Lines

Sten- 2 handed Animal with Warrior lines and 2 hand lines maxed out, hits for 70 on average

Leliana- Archer, lockpicker, pick pocketer, Bard/Ranger

Whoever- I take Zevran, Morrigan, or Oghren depending on who I feel like using.



I play on hard and really like the first 3. I rarely used Sten on my first playthrough as a Warrior, but as my second character was a mage, he is my best Warrior. Allistair just doesn't work out for me. My thrid Character will be a Rogue Archer, so Leliana won't be used as much the third time. Figure I'll use Morrigan in the same role as my current mage, Sten Again, and whoever in the 4th slot.

[FinSupafly]

When I'm playing on my Elven Warrior Celest, who is a 2-handed berserker/champion, I got Alistair with me as a tank, Zevran as a lockpicker and a DPS and of course Wynne as a healer. And if I play my assassin/duelist rogue, I got Shale or Alistair as a tank, Morrigan and Wynne with me.

[fantasypisces]

Generally it is Alistair, Leliana, and Morrigan. Sometimes I take Morrigan out for Wynne.



I'm trying to do some different things now.

PC: Archer - Alistair, Wynne, Dog/Zevran.

PC: 2hand Reaver/Champion - Sten/Berzerker - Oghren/Berzerker/Templar - Wynne (haste).

PC: Tank - Wynne - Zevran - Dog.

[Kiyoh]

Me as a berserker/champion

morrigan as a full time spirit healer

shale as a part time tank & healing totem with stone aura(I think it's stone aura, whatever one heal the team but immobilizes shale)

loghain as a horrid berserker(mainly just a meatshield)

[fozfoster]

For two playthroughs, one as a human warrior the other as a human arcane warrior, I found my favourite crew was

Alastair - tank/anti-mage (he'd take brunt early on when I played as a mage, but then my arcane warrior became nearly invincible with the full set of arcane warrior talents).

Leliana - ranged and lock-picker/trap-disarmer (in my second playthrough I made her a duelist for the attributes and put some points into the first line of duel-weapon talents - the passive ones that just boost her aptitude with two weapons - and then the rest into the rogue and archery talents. It took me to the end of the game to Arrow of Slaying, which is awesome, so I will try to build towards that talent sooner next time).

Wynne - all around support - healer/ranged (preachy dialogue aside, Wynne is the best healer. Building Morrigan into a quality healer would take to long and come at the expense of her more eccentric abilities, but Wynne already has the base healing spells. Give her a wicked staff - I bought her the Staff of the Magister Lord - for solid, never-missing ranged damage in support of Leliana's archery).

I find 2-handed warriors die way too easily despite their armour and usually require Wynne as support healing them every few seconds. Out of the two party mages, Morrigan's combat spells don't seem as effect as a healer  when your PC is a tanking warrior or a mage. Zevran's got crappy lock-picking skills for a rogue when he comes to your party so he automatically took a back seat to Leliana. Plus in my 2 playthoughs I needed ranged damage more than a stealth striker, thusly another blow to Zevran's pride. And Shale is fun and a solid warrior - when he works. There are still some bugs with Shale in combat - notably he will freeze up and stand still and take blows without dishing them out until you take control of him (this isn't a problem with Tactics, he's just a big buggy).

I'm playing as a rogue next, so that's going to change up the mix since I may not need Leliana or Zevran and might instead use a tank-mage-mage combo.

Any suggestions for a party set up for a PC rogue (I favour the stabby-style rogue over the shooty-style)?

I use respec mod and I set Morrigan as a pure healer the minute I get her. She is not even supposed to attack anything, just heal/debuff.

The only difference I make with Leli - if I play mage I set her as melee, if I play rogue I set her as archer. That way I always have ranged toon in party.

[termokanden]

My crew has been Alistair, Wynne and Leliana from day one. It really is perfectly balanced. I would like to bring some of the other characters along, but I play without mods and this way most of them have horrible builds to the degree where I just leave them in the camp for good.

[Roman727]

I just wish there was a dueling multiplayer system because my rouge Drizzt would stunlock and murder anyone he fights just check out his build

[NDAv]

Am I the only one who plays with many different party configurations? I always change it for each location. Currently, my elf assassin/duelist is being accompanied by Shale, Leliana, and Wynne in Orzammar.



My most frequent party members, based on the amount of kills:



1. Morrigan (144)

2. Wynne (122)

3. Alistair (103)

4. Leliana (40)

5. Zebes (33)

6. Shale (28)

7. Sten (22)

8. Zevran (0)

[stillnotking]

I switch party members a lot as well. They're all pretty good, especially if you get them early or use that mod that allows you to allocate all their points. There's no reason to restrict yourself to one set.

The one person that usually winds up in my party is Shale. It's really hard to justify not taking her unless I want to make an encounter more difficult for some reason.

[fantasypisces]

Actually hang on, that could be interesting, to go through all my characters and tally up their kills.

Brb!

Except Leilana would never have very many, even if you took her every single time.

I hardly ever bring her, because: a) lousy DPS, and "Maker preserve us!"  They're just hurlocks, we've killed a million of them, STFU.

[david46]

I usually run with the same bunch varied by my character type, Shale and Dog are constant if the game does not force me to take another. Leliana(archer) if I need to open chests and Wynne(Arcane Warrior) if I need a healer. Zev and Logain are always dead so they are not an option.

[Sidreus]

I always use same party members on my most runs. Alistair, Leliana & Morrigan. This give me more freedom while creating a new hero. On higher levels I change between Zevran and Leliana.



Least used one is Sten as I can't stand his attitude.

[fantasypisces]

Alrighty, final totals:

1) PC: 3,583 kills

6) Sten: 396
7) Dog: 351
8) Oghren: 262
9) Zevran: 183
10) Wynne: 83  (lol, poor Wynne, didn't use her much first three, now I'm using her, but she just autoattacks between heals, so doesn't kill much)

For my PC characters:
20 Archer (Duelist/Ranger): 677 Kills
22 Mage (Spirithealer/ShapeS): 886
23 Warrior (DW Champ/Temp): 1,134
12 Warrior (2h Reaver): 440
13 Archer (Bard): 446

For companions:
20 Archer: Alistair (562), Morrigan (314), Leliana (0), Shale (200), Sten (55), Dog (136), Oghren (159), Zevran (156), Wynne (0 - killed her at Circle).

22 Mage: Alistair (542), Morrigan (549), Leliana (352), Shale (116), Sten (72), Dog (5), Oghren (11), Zevran (15), Wynne (9).

23 Warrior: Alistair (302), Morrigan (540), Leliana (254), Shale (98), Sten (78), Dog (38), Oghren (44), Zevran (5), Wynne (35).

12 Warrior: Alistair (47), Morrigan (60), Leliana (48), Sten (173), Dog (5), Oghren (48), Zevran (0), Wynne (12).

13 Archer: Alistair (151), Morrigan (125), Leliana (33), Sten (18), Dog (167), Oghren (0-don't have yet), Zevran (7), Wynne (27).

Wow, I was bored.

You must not be able to stand anybody who has ever tried to give you sound advice.

Alistair's a pansy. I put him in his Templar sundress armor and leave him at the camp till he dies at the Landsmeet.

A pansy? Why, yes, only the weakest of pantywaists would ever drink the poisonous essence of evil and survive, and fight off monsters with nothing but sheer grit, rigid steel, and willpower while all the while retaining a sarcastic, lighthearted sense of humor and a youthful demeanor.

Rogues dont do as much damage while PC controled, so Zevran and Lel stay at camp also.

All you have to do is maneuver them behind an enemy that is occupied by whoever the hostility builder in your party is.

Regardless of wether I'm using even rogue archer or human arcane
warrior blood mage, I always roll with Sten as a two-handed Reaver,
Shale with pulverizing blow talents and flawless ice and lightning
crystals, and a Spirit Healing Morrigan with crowd control talents like
sleep and paralyze.
Sometimes I trade Oghren for Sten, depending on what type of banter I'm in the mood for.

All of this, however, sounds well and fun. Making Morrigan a Spirit Healer and focusing on crowd control is one of my favorite builds, as well.

As for my own crew: my main character is a greatsword Berserker, Morrigan keeps the enemies on their toes and heals the party, Shale or Alistair provide the bulwark of defense, and Zevran, Dog, or Leliana provide some supplementary DPS.

She is cute, warm and understanding. Even as rl female I find her most rewarding romance option. Screw stupid unbalanced Alistair and "I-am-so-cool" Zevran; Leli is my favorite girl.
If your Leliana does lousy DPS that is because you set her to be lousy, for whatever reason. Mine is a beast. L2Leliana.

Bah!  It's all a pose.  She's an annoying self-righteous busybody.  Her answer to the Guardian's question is pure hypocrisy, I'm surprised the Maker doesn't smite her for that one.

OK, maybe I'm a teensy bit too hard on Leliana, but I have never had her do anything close to the DPS of a melee class or a mage.  She usually hovers around 15% of party damage.  Does she do more in your games?  If I'm doing something radically wrong, I dont know what it is.  It's not like it's tough to keep up Song of Courage and use AoS/Critical Shot on cooldown.

Note, this is my Nightmare Crew, as thats the only mode I play now.

Characters I swap out depending on situation

- Sten

- Dog

- Shale

- Loghain

- Oghren

- Zevran

It depends on what kind of situation I will be getting into, when facing a large group of enemies, its usually Shale, Sten, and Oghren, when facing a boss, or going up against lots of single tough enemies, its usually Shale/Loghain, Zevran, and Dog.

Characters who have never gotten into my party, ever.

- Morrigan ( She literally gets camped the second I hit Lothering for Leliana, and never gets out of said camp for the entire rest of the game. )

- Leliana gets camped after Sten, never comes out again except for a few things, namely the Cute Nug

- Alistar was my main man for the first playthrough, after that, he bugged me

- Wynne, just never found a use for her

My main character is usually either a DW Warrior, a 2h Warrior, or a Ranger.

No mages on nightmare? That must be fun....

[errant_knight]

It depends on the situation. Alistair is always in the group, partly because I like him and he's my best fighter, and partly for character reasons. For me this is the quest of two Grey Wardens, not one. For really tough battles, especially if I'm low on health potions, I take the PC, Alistair, Wynne and Morrigan. If I need more swords and less healing/immobilizing/ranged spells, I take Sten rather than Wynne. I usually go back over an area with Dog and Leiliana to pick up extra loot. I'm going to try and make more use of Dog, but you just don't take your dog to the deep roads, even if he is a wardog.   I'm sure I could make more use of Zevran and Leiliana, but I just dont know what to do with rogues. Sometimes I'll swap Sten out for Oghren just for kicks, and Oghren goes on the deep roads quest all the way. It's his wife, after all.... If I had an option, I'd put another sword and shield character in rather than either Sten or Oghren.
