Fellow Dwarves help me with this choice.....should I make Grör a Champion or Reaver? The warrior that can rally his troops and fight till the last or the warrior that fights with the rage and fire of a dragon! haha 

 

P.s Sword/Axe and Shield or 2 Handed ;)

Reaver! You're a Carta boy, feed on your enemies strength! Then break them!

Also go two-handed and get that badass elf sword that I can't remember the name of.

Hey! You're Carta, not Legion!

 

Carta are master of pragmatic fighting, they don't need no specialization, just horn them to deaf and smash your hard shield in their pretty face if they give you the wrong look!

I have questions or just your opinion on certain dwarven theories, if you don't mind engaging in discussion.  :)

So...tried playing as a different race.....I hated it! I've always been a dwarf since DA: Origins and other games and I will always be a Dwarf :P

 

So true! I cant bring myself to be an elf or human. My Canon Warden is FemBrosca and always will be!, Wish I could have been a Dwarf in DA2, imo Hawk could have been a dwarf but then again the whole mages verses templars most likely would have not made sense for a dwarf to be the center focus but still *sad face*.

 

In DAI I love being so tiny and having everyone look up to me (metaphorically speaking lol) but "not worshiped"! 

 

 

although I do play as a qunari here and there >.>

That's a tough question because you're the one that has to play Grör in the end! =p

Reaver has 3 (4 if you count the one that consumes focus) moves. The first two are visually the same. Just a big red claw lashing out and the third one casts a red hue on the enemies. 2H attacks are slow, but reaver is fast. I have not tried champion on a dwarf, but I spec Blackwall that way. His decoys and floating shields are nifty, but they obstruct a lot of my screenshots. No biggie for a console player.

Also I like to have dwarven weapons if I can help it. S&S has Proving Shield and a few tier 3 axes so that works. 2H has Hossberg Twainer (axe) and the Masterwork Serrated Greatsword that's looted from one of the dwarven tombs in Hissing Wastes. I actually really like the masterwork dwarven maul, but it's limited to tier 2, alas. (No graphic equivalent for tier 3.)

I don't have JoH DLC so I have no idea if there are dwarven weapons offered in the expansion.

Thank you my fellow dwarves for replying! :) Hmmm.....I think I'm going to go with the Champion :P Who doesn't want a crazy, war hungry dwarf, rallying his troops to fight and gain more ground for the Inquisition ;) But thank you once again for the suggestions! :D

I will try and get more screenshots of Grör and update you with his progress but I'm busing packing due to my move from Wales to Plymouth in England; so, I'm really sorry if I'm quiet on here and not replying that much :/ I will try my best my fellow dwarven kin :)

Is the dwarven gestation period shorter than humans? Because that girl the dwarven noble can have sex with ALREADY has your child by the time you get back to Orzammar. The game does take place over a year roughly, and you can save Orzammar for last like I always do, but... The timing is strange. I don't think dwarves take 9 months to give birth like humans do, their smaller size might mean pregnancy doesn't last as long for them as it does humans.

Trying to calculate time in a Bioware game is a futile endeavor. You'd have a better chance of trying to figure out how Thedas' economy works, but that could drive a person to the loony bin.

I actually don't think there's any reason to assume it's shorter. I believe in the Keep, Orzammar is the final stop before the Landsmeet, which suggests they based it on the idea you wouldn't get there until near the end of the Blight. They can only build in so much realism and still let people have flexibility...

I got another example though. Felsi and Oghren's child. He only hooks up with her after the defeat of the blight, and she's already given birth BEFORE Awakening. Awakening is only 6 months after DAO. You do the math. That's not even guesswork, that's pure canon.

 

And no, I wasn't holding this back. I only just remembered this.

The period of gestation in any story exists in direct correlation to the amount of hand-waving required by the plot, so ranging all the way from InstaBaby ™ to EternaBaby ™.

This is known as the "Baby in a Goldfish Bowl" Effect.

As for darkspawn, you saw their larval stage (or a mutated version thereof) in Awakening, actually.

Except he admits in conversation that they were fooling around in Orzammar before he left, which in cannon is near the end of the blight. She may have left Orzammar just before the Warden arrives because she was pregnant and Oghren was technically still married. I've always assumed she had the child before he arrived at Redcliffe or was already several months pregnant when we arrived at Redcliffe and he only found out afterwards when he went back to Redcliffe. But what Gilsa quoted Gaider as saying works. :lol:

 

Honestly, we have absolutely no evidence that the devs are particularly mathematically sensitive to travel time either, so I wouldn't take one case that can be explained away very easily as any kind of evidence. We have no real indication that dwarves have babies who are less developed. I'd expect it to be the other way around, honestly.

Well shorter pregnancies are a good thing for dwarves. Their numbers in Orzammar get lower every year with how the keep losing more and more warriors to darkspawn. So I would think people in here would be happy about it since it means they can keep their population up easier than we thought.

They aren't dogs, so they won't just lay down with anyone. Oghern and Felsi could've had done it on many occasions. He said "they messed around," which could be many attempts at making a little Oghern.

Cole said this -
'The Stone,still there, silent and reaching up for the blood that still walks. No dreams with the cord cut. You sell it.'

I think the Stone, lyrium and the dwarven race were all part of the same being. That being was torn asunder, yet a mighty being thats song is older than magic of the Fade. Were the Titans such beings? And what was it that tore them apart? Are they forgotten ones??

I love dwarves and hope to see more of their origins in DLC Asap.

Titan's usually mean giant person. So they went from the absolute largest race to the smallest. I guess losing their connection to the fade made them go in the opposite direction that they were before. Maybe the dwarves love for making themselves giant when in statue form isn't just them overcompensating for their size, maybe that's how their ancestral memory remembers them being like.

Speaking of Titans, here's a screenshot of my dwarf looking at something in the distance. (spoilers jaws of hakkon)
