In Cespar's defense, for someone to say they have difficulty imagining a dwarf as a warrior when that's their classical archetype *does* come off a wee bit trollish, but we're all on the same page now. ^_^


Which is no reason not to discuss the physics of it. And if I actually had a problem with dwarves, choosing a class to play one wouldn't be in my mind.

No, we're not in the same page. Otherwise those two would've dropped their little game already.

By the way, I almost missed your post.

Slip a knife between the ribs? Stomach? The kidneys? Cut the hamstrings and when they're on their knees, slit their throat? Plenty of vulnerable spots exposed to dwarves with daggers. B)

Ahh, now this is a mature response.

Well, maybe I could've thought of a way to say it without sounding too dick-ish.

 

It's okay, I hope my post helped somewhat :)

I wasn't done editing my post, actually.

Just take one more look.

I don't know who the two you are referring to are. If I am one. I made a single word statement ONCE based on your initial post (similar to many we've seen who come in merely to attack dwarves as a playable class) and based on having seen you do something similar in another thread earlier today. As far as I know, you're the only one continuing anything, and everyone else seemed prepared to drop it. But if you actually want people to engage with you and discuss things, remember that we have no requirement to actually respond OR help. You're welcome to let us know when you actually want to discuss politely, but don't expect other responses until then.

I'm just trying to settle this amicably since it was just a little case of misunderstanding is all.  :( We're all friends here  :)

It's beyond appreciated.

And while I can't say when, I most likely will be posting my own dwarf here in the future.

Naturally, no one is required to respond. However, when a misunderstanding happens one additional comment is expected in order to fully resolve the subject.

And your agreeing with Cespar's post confirmed the motivation was to do that little retaliation.

Even now, you still don't get it. As I've explained and LadyofClockwork7 understood, it was just a poor choice of words. No "attack" has been done.

Gonna be perfectly blunt -- if you're already having a hard time with the physical logistics for combat alone, then it's not going to get better as the game goes on. There will be cutscenes where you only see the top of your head during conversations. Those scenes were created with humans first and they're not always adjusted for other races (qunari get their heads lopped off in the other direction). Some romance scenes may be awkward and require a bigger suspension of disbelief on your part.

 

If you focus on the Carta background and the fact that the Chantry doesn't even acknowledge dwarves, it becomes more amusing to be the Herald. You're a walking blasphemy. Do you tell everyone to wise up and that the Chantry is a waste of time or do you go right ahead and pretend to be sent by Andraste and ask for some peeled grapes while they're at it?

 

Here's a few ideas on how to look at the classes:

 

1. Warrior with shield -- the dwarf has plenty of brawn and can do just fine taking the blows while the party does the damage.

2. 2H Warrior -- get a blunt weapon, break those legs and topple them over so you can stomp their faces in Walking Dead style. Yeah? Yeah!

3. Rogue -- go artificer spec. Toss out bombs, explosives, snares. You're from the Carta -- embrace the underhanded tactics! Don't feel like you have to stab anything.

 

And take a look at this. If there was ever a good time to be a dwarf, this is it. The farther away from the giant's crotch, the better. ;)

Yes. I upgraded my computer before the game came out so I'm able to play with high/max settings.

At this point, I'm just making minor alterations to one of the stock faces and my graphics settings to see if I can find a combination that gives me 40+. This is starting to look close to me, any reactions?

She looks 40+ for sure. Hot too!

That's what I'm aiming for, thanks! I've been starting by creating someone attractive, then trying to age her, with wildly varying results.

I love this! I like that instead of focusing on CassandraxFjalar together, you had Varric write a romantic book based on their relationship, which let us know that a person who doesn't enjoy writing romantic books, he was able to cough up a certain feeling inspired by this power couple. 

 

 

Gorgeous!

 

 

I love it! It's completely believable too, though maybe Cadash needs to get his hands on it too...

 

You guys are too kind. I'm glad you enjoyed it; it was fun to write for sure. :blush:

Sometimes I consider making a dwarf, but the class options feel so limited. Sure, three of them are available but only one makes sense.

Dwarven warrior: What are you gonna do, stab the enemy's legs?

Dagger wielding rogue: Same issue.

Dwarven marksman: The only one that feels right. Shooting with a bow isn't limited by your body as much.

 

The legs are actually one of the top target in sworfighting, an enemy that cannot stand his one less to worry about.

Technically dwarf are not that short, but reach roughly the chest level of the average human, so there are plenty of place to hit hard.

They are also quite stocky and have a low gravity center which would give them a good balance, a hit in the chest from a dwarf warrior could make a lot of damage.

 

And on a more light note I said it before, you have to be a little worry around a person with sharp or blunt weapons that is that much closer to your groin than the average human :devil:

Seeing as I turned 40 at the turn of the year, maybe I'll try to roll someone a little closer my own age when I finally get around to playing Inquisition a second time. I'll post my results.

I'm the other side of 50, so I really like the idea of playing someone who looks close to my age, rather than someone younger than my children :P

I am well into my mid thirties and feel the same as you. It was funny when the game just got out and the first pictures of players Inquisitor started to get out, seemed like Thedas was full of Justin Bieber lookalike(right down to the haircut ) :P

You could argue there is an advantage to not being an easy target.

Yup, I'm aware of the Carta related background. If I go warrior, it's gonna be sword + shield. I've already done 2H. As for rogue possibilities... I wouldn't think of competing with Bianca. :D

As for romance scenes, it's irrelevant. We don't get to see the action anyway.

Success! In fact, I think she looks older than me. Meet Taina "Grandma" Cadash:

 

Spoiler

Apparently, she has a heavy hand with the makeup, sigh. I swear, the blush was only two ticks from the far left, and the eyeshadow was about as close to none...

I'm just thrilled we have the option to look older for once. Most CCs don't support anything that looks much over the equivalent to a human 20 yo.

Oooo, I want to go to your 21st!! I have five more months until I'm 21! I think that's just a DLC that people want, but I don't know where they're getting the idea from. My warden Brosca was looking for a cure in inquisition.
