Also, just wondering who you guys generally take with you when you head out for adventuring.
I have a permanent spot for Cassandra in every main quest mission. She's the Alistair of this game to me - it just feels wrong to not take Cass in major quests, she's been my right hand from the start and needs to be there making all the big decisions with me.
Other than that, I like having Blackwall around with this Inquisitor, his chivalrous personality fits her Lawful Good character well. And I
adore Vivienne and Dorian, I want them around all the time.
And Cole! His disjointed rambling banter reminds me of Cicero (from Skyrim), and he creeps the living beejeezus out of everyone, which is hilarious.
I respec'ed my character to Archery, but I'm not sure on the second part... What goes best with Archery? I was thinking Assassin...
Depends on how you play. Assassin has good crits and backstab bonuses if you like to kite and flank, Tempest is better if you like to stay right inside the fray. I'm having a good time with Artificer, setting traps from stealth, then doubling back and sniping from a distance to make enemies walk right into my trap. The mark and recall skill has also saved my ass quite a few times now, against those motherloving high dragons coming out of nowhere right when everyone's health was in shambles, too.
