You can combine them on your own in DAO. It depends if you trained in the right skills. 

As I said, DA:O had terrible balance. 

 

 

*snip*

Well BioWare does, and mage is one class out of 3, it shouldn't be vastly superior to any other except for in terms of story combat. 

 

As to the screenshots: I don't really know how to judge them without context.

I'm starting to think that Cassandra is going to be a total Woobie.

 

and I'm totally amazed that they can do the sad puppy eyes in Frostbite 3.

I loved the Tudors. I am totally imagining my Inquisitor Trevelyan looking like Johnathan Rhys-Myers.

Now that I think about it, the Inquisition can act a bit like the Protestant Reformation did in medieval Catholic Europe. While we are independent of the Chantry, we can no doubt influence if not outright control it. In doing so we can have the most religion in Thedas under our control.

I'll take a shot in the dark and say that won't happen.

I wonder how being a mage will involve in the romance.

In some ways, the Reformation just opened up more chaos. It wasn't a singular faction like that. The Reformers split up almost immediately. At times, it was civil disagreement, and then other times, these factions engaged in their own wars, while Catholics stood back and laughed.

Of course, they disagree. I'm just keeping this between us. One opinion against another. I simply liked mages more before. While I think they keep improving on rogue and warrior. Or rather, I think the direction they've taken combat is more favorable to rogues and warriors. Those two do well when incorporating basic attacks. I'd rather mages fill up their attack stages with more spells, rather than the staff.

 

Anyways, I won't derail anymore. Say what you will. :)

 

Oh, on the plus side, with this more open environment, maybe we'll do more environmental damage? That would be cool for mages at least. If it actually caused indirect damage.

True. Although if we're looking for a better analogue of Protestantism in Thedas, I think the schism between the Imperial and Orlesian Chantry and the subsequent Exalted Marches are more of a parallel. Factionalism is a notable trait when organizations divide, and the fact that the Imperial Chantry is the only denomination of the Chantry shows the difference between Thedas and the real world. Although Petrice's implication that she is leading a revolt against the orthodox Chantry shows that Thedas maybe more similar than we imagine. 

The Inquisition has the opportunity to reform and correct some of the more extreme ideas of the Chantry, at least I hope we can.

I wonder how Cassandra will get along with Iron Bull. If you think about their jobs are quite similar. They work as internal investigators, dealing with extreme elements in their own respective religions in a variety of ways and attempt to prevent corruption or rebellion. True Bull is more of a spy than a priest, even though as a Ben-Hassrath he technically is one, in the same way Sten was an ambassador, but the fact is they both work for religions, even if they are exist in complete opposition to each other. I imagine their dialogue will be very interesting, highlighting the conflict between the Qun and the Chantry.

I'm not sure what to think about him. And if he's similar to Cass, then he seems to have lost sight of his job. I mean, is he a failure to his own cause? Or just putting on an act? Or is he so deep cover that he's lost himself in the "role"? I don't think losing himself to drink and debauchery was part of the Qunari job title.

The devs once said Cass and the Bull see "eye to eye" and talk shop and generally get along, save for some points that will cause contention.

Doubts?

Weirdness?

Scandals?

Cute comment on "I never believed I could fall for a mage" and that's the lasting thing your hear of it?

Everyone bugging Cassandra over it when she totally do not care?

Going by dev comments, Cassandra and Iron Bull theological debates are with Solas, not each others. Cass&Bull prefer talking shop and kicking butts. I guess the talking shop might involve their past jobs and how they compare. Neither of them seems to be the type that try to change another person religious point-of-view to me.

*catches up on thread after being busy at work and being sick*

 

IMO Tevelyan MageQuisitor is the only one for Cassandra. Feel free to object all you like CadaLavellAdaars.

Yessss.

 

Are you still taking commissions? :blush:

 

yes.

 

 

Anyway, Cass looks fabulous in the leaked screenshots. I was torn for my mage!Trev between Cass and Josie, but I've pretty much decided on going with Cass.

I would consider the split between the Imperial and Andrastian Chantries more akin to the schism between Orthodox and Catholic Christianity in the Middle Ages. I do hope that we can use the Inquisition to influence a little bit of reform in the Chantry, though.

A better parallel. Thanks.

It was romantic in the secondary sense of the word, i.e., "of, characterized by, or suggestive of an idealized view of reality". She didn't think it was sweet and tender that Hawke straight up murdered the Arishok 1 v 1. 

This was kinda my point. Being "a romantic" doesn't just mean you like flowers and poetry and snuggles with your boo when you think no-ones looking.

I doubt there will be anything special. She fell for a mage once, so it won't be anything new for her.
