His battle cry is "For the preservation of our blue and clear world"?

Little wordy.

Well, at least you have head canon. You need it to see all those things as in the same category.


To be honest I stole it from an anime...


Anywho.

Threats to centralized human authority are just that.

Those threats are listed because they are threats.

What's Nazlik's coloring like, on the darker or lighter side? Edit: Greyish? Goldish? I remember the blue eyes, I think. 

 

She has silver eyes, and light bronze skin. I edited it after reading the DragonWiki :).

 

Edit: If you are going to try to draw it I can pm you the details I made for the RobRam10´s artist. No worry though, it was just a idea. Not trying to step on anyones artistic views. :)

Okay. I wondered at the time if blue was possible, actually.  :)

 

Horn size? Also, what's her class?

So when you list Elves, you mean rebel Elves then? 

 

I mean, I don't know how much of a champion the nobles of Halamshiral are going to see you as if you walk into a fete and start killing the servants for the preservation of our blue and pure world. 

 

Okay, I've got to know. Tell me which anime? Please?

Perhaps somewhat. But the Qun already has enough power over people. I won't waste all the fire in my soul on it.  :) 

 

Besides, It's a rigid and unfeeling thing. What does it care for my attitude towards it?

 

 

 

 

 

That is so frustrating...Quillbacks are common enough, but the Alphas spawn only rarely and then the don't always drop the spikes I needed. I'm green with envy. Ah well. At least I'll know exactly what to do when the time for my assassin play through comes around. 

 

So you've already reached the Winter Palace then? I've only been there as Trevelyan. I'm sure it's pretty different for Adaar. Do you remember how they introduced you at the ball?

 

 

 

 

I am happy to see you play qunari.  sadly it has to be tal-vashoth, but its better than nothing. Got a few points in my book.

 

 

 

Not just tal-vashoth, but a tal-vashoth Mage whose pretty happy not having her mouth sewn shut.  ;) 

 

I care about your attitude towards it!  Your hatred towards it and its such a major part of me. 

 

I have not done the winter palace yet.  Is that where you go for Josephine?  I am ready to do that part, but there are like a million different things to do I don't know which one to do first lol.  I want to do Iron Bull's mission, but like a good Qunari I need to get all of the use out of "that group of people in my skyhold" until They've served their purpose.

 

I admit.  I love the Qunari as a people.  Part of that is obviously the Qun, but to be a Qunari mage?  Damn.  I can't fault you for that.  I have to disagree with my brothers on that.  mouths should never be sewn shut, but they have good reasons, and I respect that.  Qun is law.

 

You play MP right?  I'll tell you a cool thing I learned about your class.....assuming you use elemental mines?  I'm sure you have a lot of friends you play with....some that like to play S&S (sword and shield) warrior?  Lego is by far the best tank and Temp is a freaking beast and one of my favorite classes if you build them right. anyways....if you have them block with their shield and throw your mines into it you can fill up their guard like that whenever you want/need.  Not sure why it does that...prob a bug, but it works like that.

 

Edit is the winter place when you first get Viv? Yeah I've done that.  Guy comes down the stairs running his mouth off  and Viv freezes him?  She killed him no questions asked....we got off to a good start, but I hate her personality....and hair cut lol.

Rebel elves that are stuck two thousand years in the past but yes.

And it's the slogan of Blue Cosmos a militaristic human purist organization o.o

To be honest though it's the only decent thing from the anime.

It's Gundam Seed were talking about after all, They proclaim it as they fire a mass volley of thermonuclear missiles into civilian occupied space stations.

These aren't dinky ones either, they hold millions of people in them.

You know a militia is well equipped when it can split the atom on a whim.

But then you have the LOGOS connection and it falls into place. That's the military industrial complex in that universe.

Well, you hate Tevinter...We're even?

 

The Winter Palace is the setting of the Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts quest, where you're at an Orlesian ball. I didn't like the quest. It irritated me after a while. 

 


 

I want to do Iron Bull's mission, but like a good Qunari I need to get all of the use out of "that group of people in my skyhold" until They've served their purpose.

 

 

Lol, you would hate just about everything I do in game. 

 

Okay, so I'm going to do this...

 

Arishok disapproves

 

And now I'm going to make this alliance...

 

Arishok disapproves

 

And now, in regards to this world shaking decision, I'm going to do this and then just chill and watch it unfold. 

 

Arishok punches the Inquisitor in the face and leaves

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't what they're afraid of, in large part, that a demon could be transferred with little more than words? That doesn't sound like such a good reason to me. 

 

...But of course, for you "The Qun is law".

Actually only one of my gamer friends is on the same console as I am, and he won't get the game until Christmas. :( I just play with random groups at this point, but I haven't done a lot of multiplayer yet. I lose my connection just enough for it to be irritating. Thank you for the tips, though! I need them, I'm not very good at it yet.

 

I kind of miss some of the aspects of Mass Effect multiplayer. I think I slightly prefer that style to the dungeon crawler...but I'm sure I'll get used to it.

best thing to do in MP is play a mage.  The ele or the nec.  Rush to "death siphon" or you can even use cotton to mod your staff to have heal on kill.  You can be effective at that and carry a lot of weight as they have a lot of good abilities.  Then you can let the loot you get decide what class to play next. (that the worst part of the game to me...the terrible and fully random loot system and there is no maxing out stuff that sucks...you can get the same thing a million times)

 

If you get a decent 1 handed weapon combing light of heaven and then spell purge will quite literally kill everything remotely around you...you just need a decent damage 1h weapon.  I troll my friends like this until they start cussing me for killing everything as there are some skills/passives that make it so the skills recharge very quickly.  Its hilarious.

 

I saw you talking about what console u play on not to long ago and i don't know much about it, but I would try to find decent players and just add them and start playing with them.....randoms can be.....trying......like when everyone is at full health and they waste the health font just because? uhhh...ok then.

This is good info. I remember reading something you said about too many people going rogue, I think. I'll try to keep it in mind.

 

Thank you for the advice.  :)

 

I'll do that eventually then, but at this point I think I'm probably the trying one. I've got a general of what it all entails. But my first time playing the mp, I was so pleased with myself for realizing quickly that I, as the only rogue, has to make that door open and doing it really quickly. I was like, "Yeah, look at me keeping up with the pace!"

 

Then my team had to revive me a few times and I was less enthused. 

 

I think I'll wait till I'm less of a noob before I start being picky. Lol.

I said that on release day every room you join will be rogues.  That was sooooo true as well!  They told me I was wrong and it would be warriors.....no I paid attention.  I was right.

 

That said rogues are amazing in this game.  I've started bringing the assassin into perilous when we still played the MP a lot....it worked like a charm.  I do have the +30% for twin fangs, but I was one-shotting stuff like a boss.

 

That said back to the mage/spell question I asked?  It seems a lot less valid now that I have actually played DA: I, I was very disappointed that they took out the kill animations.  You might say...they are expanding the audience, but the game has ******.  They aren't worried about being "mature" So I just don't get it.

 

Anyways, to my knowledge there has never been a game that has featured kill animations for mages/spells.  If vints are so amazing at magic I would like to see some.  A type of firespell where they burn up in an inferno, a massive fireball that leaves a burning hole or half of your enemy just GONE if its the killing blow where it passed by/through them. Ice spells that "impale" people to death....and freeze them solid to explode them.  Lightning spells that leave bodies charred and twitching long after death.  I feel melee has always gotten this kind of love....I would love to see this type of feature in a game.....this seems like a good time.

 

Of course kill animations for melee need to return to dragon age as well now that they were removed.

I don't really support Tevinter's principles or practices (slavery, for example) but I really, really would like it to make an appearance in-game.

It would have been extremely relevant in the Mage-Templar conflicts. I feel that in the current games, we weren't really given much exposure to what evils mages are truly capable of, which made it difficult to justify based on experience supporting templars over the mages.

I have a question for the scum.

If you and your fellow mages are so amazing and so powerful, if you're the top of the food chain in the mage world....then tell me....specifically. What are some spells that should be showcased in the next dragon age that are functional and have "vint" flavor to them.

In other words, if vints are so much better what kind of spell upgrades or spell types should a game set in Tevinter have to really show this.


Pure arcane energy blasts.

Flame waves, like moving firewalls, as in you shoot them forward and they travel through everything.

Ball lightning, that zaps everyone while traveling and then explodes into a shock burst.

Liquid cryo streams, in a cone.

Proper telekinetic bursts, that hurl enemies around and deal damage. Bring back crushing prison.

Strong blood magic, that draws on enemies health to cast spells, to amplify other magic too.

Can think of many things

Well there are a few ways to show this off. the first IMO has Very Little to do with game mechanics at all. 

 

It show magic being used in every day life. World of thedas states rather clearly that tevinter is built sometimes literally with magic. So showing this is probaly number one. For instance perhaps their resivors to their aquaducts are powered by magic, buildings floating, doctors using numerous spells in surgery such as sleep to put the person to sleep while they do the surgery.

 

As for game mechancis hard to say, as I typically play rogues :P but I do kind of want Force Mage, Battle mage and arcane warriors again.

Blood magic should be a addition cause its part of the culture. And if tevinter is so "evil" that the devs are trying to shovel down our throats might aswell show it
