Does anyone know if Bioware is aware of the problem with Flask of Fire and Thousand Cuts?

Because these two things paired together break the game completely. In case you don't think it's a big deal, here's my lvl 15 party taking on a Dragon on Nightmare difficulty:

 

 

The moment Sera unleashes Thousand Cuts, it take 6 seconds for the Dragon to die. Your upgraded Flask of Fire basically gives you unlimited use of your Focus ability, provided you wait for the Flask to cooldown before you use it again. Applying Mark of Death on the target, also makes it even stronger. Hopefully this is getting looked at, as once you get these abilities, you roflstomp through the game on any difficulty.

Isn't that why they give Sera a troll face?

I wanted to make a thread about how stupidly overpowered tempest + archery is. I did not because it's a SP game after all and I don't really care. But anyway. Thousand cut with level 3 focus can almost instant kill everything in the game.

Could you elaborate on this some? Like, what level your party was, what gear Sera had, what difficulty did you play on?

I like exploits like this honestly... maybe it's my lack of interest in challenge. But it makes you feel really powerful. 

 

 

I also find it quite funny how this now makes Sera (if you are not playing a tempest) the single most powerful being in the entirety of Thedas.

I actually like seeing things like this. I had no idea it was possible. It's like a secret weapon to pull out when you've had a hard day and just want to get through a tough portion of the game. :D

 

But yeah... like others said... I thought my Knight-Enchanter was OP... this makes her look like a toddler throwing building blocks.

And also, am I understanding this right, that having Flask of Fire active removes Focus cost from The Thousand Cuts ability?

Yes. My party level was 15 btw, don't remember what Bow Sera used, it wasn't anything super special though.

So did I. I was playing through Nightmare difficulty, before I figured it out. Once I did, I basically roflstomped through every enemy encounter. After about an hour of this, I got bored and felt pretty bad. I stopped my Nightmare playthrough and started a third on Normal difficulty. I'm gonna wait til this hopefully gets patched. I know people will suggest to me that I should just not use it, but that's not the point. 

I don't want the temptation there, when I'm struggling against difficult encounters.

I'm surprised it would even work that way... I mean, how could they have not known this would happen with the way it was apparently coded?

I can't replicate this consistently.  I only get it to work about a quarter of the time--every other instance my Focus is depleted as usual.  You just activate Flask of Fire, then hit Thousand Cuts, right?  Anyone else not getting this to work every time?
