I like both for dwarves, personally.  Neither of my dwarves are warriors in this game, so far, though.

 

My qunari is a two-handed warrior and I'm really enjoying the dynamics.  You feel very powerful with that type.  Having only played sword and shield in DAMP (as the legionnaire, naturally), I didn't get that same feeling.

 

So I'm going to with two-handed as well.

Hallo my fellow dwarf fans :)

 

I need your help- I gotta have a class vote

 

TH vs SnS :)

 

 

I can't deciiiiiiiiiide

I've always been a SnS gal myself, but go with what you enjoy playing.

Oh, please, don't judge by MP legionnaire. The order you can get the abilities for SnS in MP is so wrong to me (made me really frustrated last night trying it.)

Ha! You are more than welcome to have her. It's pretty easy to recreate her -- I mainly just changed the nose, face shape, and raised the jaw. The rest was left on default settings. Sliders below for your info:

 

Spoiler

Thank you! I probably won't go for a Judy Dench per se, but I can use the settings to help with getting a good age.

Go Sword and Shield or go home! Cassandra and I held the squad down.

 

I started off with a two-handed sword, but I didn't really like the play style. So I role played that Cassandra trained me in the sword and shield, while we spent time together. She's an excellent warrior, so I'm not afraid to say that I had my ass handed to me quite a bit during training sessions.

Either 2H or SnS! There's a respec you can buy cheap at the armory for this reason. =p

 

Personally I go with 2H for RP reasons like the berserker stuff previously mentioned from Oghren/DAO and because I picked the violent Carta background. I figured her scars would make more sense if she never had a shield to protect her face.

DANG, she's cute!  :D

 

EDIT: I personally can't play a warrior. Tried it. Tried to like it. I just got tired of having to chase enemies that kept moving away, unsuccessfully trying to pull them toward me with a grappling hook, and striking at thin air mere seconds after the times I did successfully manage to pull them towards me. Arrows and flasks always hit their marks, and I can stand still doing it.

I like the 2 handed approach, with an axe of course (I am an old fashioned dwarf, if it was good enough for Durin it's good enough for me :D ). Elrik is a Reaver and you have some impressive combo with that class(Charge in a group of ennemy, put them down with a Mighty Blow and then go Ring of Pain and Dragon Rage, then brush off the bits of your ennemies that stick to your armor and weapons :devil: ).
 

And as much as like Rogues ( my Viconia is amazing as an archer) there is something that I really like about running around screaming and twirling a really large weapon (keep the shrinks at bay please :whistle: ).

Hmmm blood of earth...

Maybe lyrium came from the Titans?

Either in self sacrifice or as a result of being killed, the fall of the Titans created the veil. From their bodies came lyrium, and as such it can be found both in both the fade and in thedas.

This could explain why dwarves are resistant to magic and why Templars are able to, with the aid of training, deny magic. It may also be the 'connection' dagna speaks of, and why the dwarves and tranquil, both without access to the fade, can accomplish what they can with lyrium.

And if the veil was connected to the titans, then why was it created? Was it perhaps to contain the taint to the fade? And due to sinister designs, the taint was introduced to thedas via other means?

The dwarves may have been the servants of these titans - were they created from lyrium?
Were they to be the vanguard against the corruption that is the taint? Or were they created to fight against corrupted lyrium too, lest it enable sinister forces to destroy the world?

just a few musings I've had since playing inquisition :D

Titans may be the dwarves "real" god. 

 

Kieren says that dwarves can't be taller without the Titans, which means that their creators has to make them taller.  

 

Titans are usually related to the Earth in some shape or form,(at least in the Final Fantasy series) so the blood of the Earth(Lyrium) could very well be the Titans' blood. The architecture of Orzammar just screams that there was something bigger out there. But then again, the dwarves are good with their hands. 

 

Ugh, Bioware devs, give us more juicy details on the dwarven's lore. I do feel that they did give us some connection in inquisition, but then it was up to us to connect the dots.

Boo!!!! You should totally buy Baldur's Gate Enhance Edition! It would be nice to role play with a fellow dwarf player on their.

Dwarf female CARTA retextures now available: http://firemadeflesh...t-female-only-a

I am so tickled with how lore friendly this is! The modder does have plans to do a version for the dwarven males, but that will be a bit since human males are next on the list. The dwarf males will have their own version of the Carta outfit. It will not be a carbon copy of what the females are wearing.

OMG that's gorgeous! THanks for the link.

 

I have the terrible urge to play my female dwarf again right away just to see her in something stylish and lore-friendly. (I will re-play her again eventually - I always repeat my 'canon' character because there's bound to be content I missed on my first run - but I want to leave it until after I've finished all my many other Inquisitors.)

And it's right about now that I start getting really depressed that I play on console and can't access the really awesome mods that are showing up.

I never get around to playing dwarves, but I love 'em. One of my earliest DA:O playthroughs was with a Dwarf. You have my support.

The Dragon Age Keep came at a very good time if you ever decide you want to switch platforms. Your saved games info will follow you anywhere. (I totally get it if computer is not up to par. I had to upgrade mine to get it ready for DAI and used my tax refund to pay it off.)

My laptop is, literally, taped together right now.  A screw fell out that holds the screen frame in place and I have it scotch taped together!  :lol:

 

So......yeah, I'm due for a new computer, but alas, it's not in the cards anytime soon.  I'm just happy to have upgraded from 360 to XBONE for this one, so I can enjoy DA: I in all it's gorgeous potential.

Oh, now that I really like! The only PJ retextures I'd seen before this for female dwarves just didn't suit my dwarves' personalities...

On the topic of Lyrium, templar, magic and dwarves here are just some reflections regarding what Cole says.

 

Cole says that templar "fill" themselves with an "old song" that takes all the place magic could use and therefore magic can not comes in (interestingly enough this is exactly what Ser says when speaking about the templar specialisation, he insist that templar deny magic, not simply dispel or block).

He says also that the dwarf feel the same to him, which explain there resistance to magic and their incapacity to use it, there is no place in dwarves for magic to come through.

 

The above makes me think that dwarves might be "elder" than the other races of Thedas, predating the time of magic.

 

Could they have been servants of the Titans (wharever they are) in a time when there was no Fade and no magic ? And what then could be responsible for the creation of the Fade and magic as Thedas knows it now ?

 

Flemeth mention, when Talking about Mythal, that "she was betrayed, as the world was betrayed". I always wonder about that sentence, could she refers to the creation of the Fade and magic?

 

 

Oh Boy! I do like a good riddle! (and I worry that despite a very demanding job, I have time to muse about a fictional world history, I blame Tolkien for that :lol: )

THIS IS A GREAT DAY!! First the F!Cadash Skyhold outfit comes out and then my Cadash battle icons commission from Demand the Doodles arrive! (Specific commission info here.)

 

tumblr_inline_njvya5xCtz1t4uap1.png

 

I asked for the second set to be my dwarf as a paragon statue as a homage to Shale, complete with pigeon poop and all. She was sodding fantastic about my request. Now I just have to figure out which one I want to mod into the game.

 

*steeples fingers*

Ok! Now that's really freaking cool! You lucky pc players, but I guess if your character doesn't look like that, it won't bother you as much! :P

 

Go with the paragon statue!

Another female dwarf Skyhold retexture came out today. It's not up on Nexus yet, just on this tumblr blog so linking to it. It's a classy look, which works great for dwarves who prefer the Carta-lite life (securing fancy goods for wealthy dwarven houses).
