I just finished watching Dawn of the Seeker. It was... kinda boring actually. As over the top as it was the action wasn't really engaging.
 
That creepy mage dude was fun though.

There's actually spoilers in here:
Dawn of the Seeker

Spoiler

The dragon's at the end were really badly animated.

Guys, I need an opinion.

If Seekers, or more specifically, Cassandra, used magic, if any at all, what would it be?
I'm leaning towards Cleansing Aura, because it makes sense and will look cool.

 

Looking cool is relevant here.

 

Thoughts?

The animation in general was disappointing I thought. The fights were almost too short, if that makes sense. I felt there was little dramatic intensity. And the dialogue was... eeoof.

Well, if she has the Templar spec it would make sense for her to have Cleansing Aura and Holy Smite. I suspect she would favor the latter.

holy smite cause its the best anti-mage spell there is offensivly and it strikes fear into all

[JAZZ_LEG3ND]

Okay, thanks guys.

 

Question though, the blast effect, does it come from the caster, or the target?

(I've never used Holy Smite in the game)

I was just thinking: Cassandra is the closest to a classic D&D paladin we've ever got as a companion in Dragon Age. Alistair lacked the piety, Aveline didn't have the piety or the smiting abilities and Sebastian was more geared towards revenge than justice.

 

Cassandra has it all: a strong faith, a desire to protect the weak, great fighting skills and a sense of justice. Add to that her no-nonsense choice of arms and armor and we've got a pretty neat little package.

 

Better than whatever this is:

it comes from the templar/user but that could be just dramatic effect

Why post a pic of the new Spirit of Valor?

Cool. This should add that special something to my scene.

Never mind the lip syncing. The text was awkward. I blame TV Tropes and That Guy With the Glasses. During the whole thing I was going 'the pacing is weird', 'the transitions are awkward' and 'what's with all the staring matches?'.

 

Spoiler

There is one particular scene that made me cringe: at the end when that creepy mage dude is turning into a pride demon. Why are you all standing there watching him transform? Shove him off the rampart! I guess 'transformation is a free action' was in full force.

[d1ta]

Just wanted to pop in and say that Cassandra is boss.

Haven't played a dude character ever since I got into BW games (that allows me to play my own gender) BUT, I'm willing to make an exception this time, roll out a DudeQuisitor Trevelyan romancing Cassandra (I'll even roll out a rogue so their skills will complement each other). Hope she'll appreciate it (",)

That's very true.  And she should also show that's it's possible to be a paladin without being a stifling, rigid, self-righteous dick too.  I look forward to it.

Paladins are blowhards and idiots. I wouldn't insult her that way.

 

Seriously, the most stereotypical paladin is the the famous WoW player Leeroy Jenkins. True to form. D&D Paladins aren't that different, if you read between the lines.

 

Blowhard, "stereotyped" paladins aren't doing a very good job of being a paladin, IMO.

[Rel Fexive]

Well, as I said, hopefully she won't be so stereotypical as to be preachy, small-minded and lawful stupid as well.

[raging_monkey]

she's said to have a crisis of faith and is now more open-minded if the charactor interview is to believed. So while she will have palidan traits(return to order) i doubt she'll be the stereotypical rep. Sides with a beautiful face like that it would be hard pay attention XD

[raging_monkey]

I hope it's not a crisis of faith in the way Evangeline went through. I kind of disliked the way she ended up. Pretty much a sellout to her oaths.

eva was a a extreme look at doing what was right and i liked how her syory went, but thats my opinion and all i will say

Crisis of faith can often times empower ones beliefs. Doubt can serve the faithful. I just hope it takes us to a new place in the series

[The Elder King]

I think Cassandra main focus in the game will be closing the Breach. On the mage-templar war, While it's True she wanted to restore order, she seemed to support Justinia's goal on a Compromise between mages and templars.

edit: Funnily enough, my ideal paladin is Joan of Arc. And the people England and Henry V was attacking.

Your ideal paladin is a country that denies its king his birthright? My boy, no.
