One time I was playing Sim City and I had this one sim who kept complaining that there wasn't a bus stop near his house, so I put one right in front of his house. And zoomed in to watch. You know he left and walked three blocks to another bus stop, and complained there wasn't a bus stop near his house again. I bulldozed his house. It's good to be a god.

 

Agreed on Emprise de Lion being easy to get lost in. I think I left the very same landmark unfound that you did. If it is the same one, then the only thing I can figure is it's underground somewhere, but I couldn't find a way to get to it, and got tired of looking so I went dragon-hunting instead.

Nang Fa thinks it time to move the story forward a bit today and after that, she'll try to hunt her first Dragon. She thinks she'll have Master Focus unlocked by then, and some Fire Flask + Thousand Cuts (+Enhancement Ring + 4 Cuts proc on Bow) action should make it all very doable...she hopes

Which one are you hunting? 

[Farangbaa]

I've done none yet. I'll probably do them in the 'correct order', so Crestwood dragon first.

Where do I find Silverite? and Fade touched Silverite? Daenerys wants to know. We need to explore that region. You know for my new armor. I make out of dragonscale and if I find fade touched silverite....

 

Oh, and where can I get a Masterwork Hunter Coat Schematic?

 

And why do none of my masterwork crafting attempts work?

Find it where the dragon in Emprise du Lion is sleeping and the surrounding area outside. I was able to find 2 of them, but not at once. I had to go back a 2nd and 3rd time to get both. I did get a lot of silverite though. I did this without fighting the dragon. Its funny to walk around it without waking it up, but if you get within a few feet, it will wake up.

 

I don't know where to find the hunter coat schenatic, but if you visit the merchant in the Hissing Wastes, you can buy a Tier 3 prowler schematic. I made armor for Varric. He looks good with it on and with the fade-touched silverite, he can take a lot more punishment

 

If you plan on using the masterwork that gives 40%, 30% and 20% chance to increase stats, I would make a save. I did that a few times. I kept relaoding until I got success.

There are 3 there

I will remember that for my next playthrough.

Or just go back & find them. I don't suppose they are do-able if you're early in the game. The 3 dragons there are among the most difficult one...

I'm at level 21 and playing on nightmare.

 

The 2 silverite I found I have one on my armor and other one on the armor Varric is wearing. I have 2 obsidain that are used by Cassandra's weapon and armor and for the onyx, I placed on the weapon for Solas. The 4 of us have used the same armor and weapons for the last 6 levels and at the moment will most likely not do anymore crafting.

 

Those 3 dragons I killed solo without too much of a problem.

Yup, did the solo thing too with a KE but only on hard (definitely worth trying on Nightmare). But I still left several dragons to gear up Bull's approval though...

I reloaded 10 times with a weapon, and still didn't get a masterwork. The gods hate me. I've given up on trying to make masterworks. If I was playing on nightmare iw might matter more. I'd just like to be totally overpowered. And the loading times in this game.... I'm getting fat waiting. I have time to eat a piece of holiday cake.

 

So Tier 3 Prowler schematic is available in the Hissing Wastes.... Okay that'll work. It's better than what I've got, and better than that crappy looking Superior Hunter Mail that Cullen found me. Cullen, I love you and all that but you value function too much. Looks, darling. I must look like a goddess to these people. That Gamestop Dragon armor was quite nice, but I need the really good stuff.

[BraveVesperia]

I started a new playthrough, with a pro-Chantry, pro-Circle Cadash for a different flavour. It is weird going around saying "why yes I do speak for Andraste". Cadash, you're sounding a little strange. Her values are winning so much approval from Vivienne, they're going to end up best friends before we even reach Skyhold! That's a complete switch from my Lavellans, who had some non-stop passive-aggressive deal going with Viv. Same goes with Sera (my last Lavellan didn't even get rooftop cookies!). On the other side, Solas' approval is steadily going down. It doesn't help that Cadash finds him a bit creepy. Interesting, sure, but the guy sleeps in ruins and gets chummy with spirits! She's not into that stuff. I'm hoping that Varric comes up with some unique Carta dialogue at some point, because right now he's got nothing. He's only on the permanent team because Cadash wants another dwarf, and what better than dwarfy man candy?

 

Cadash is supposed to be romancing Iron Bull, but he's a bit of a cold fish right now. She's getting a more positive reaction out of Cassandra! Flirting with her is so cute, I can't wait until I play a fella and sweep her off her feet. Or more likely, she'll sweep him. Hopefully Bull will perk up soon, or Cadash will also start pointless flirting with Dorian when he joins. Depends how freaky she finds the whole Tevinter mage thing.

 

Speaking of that, she went to Redcliffe to meet the mages, Dorian informed her of some weird time magic thing. Cadash thought "hell no" and went to recruit the templars. Who better to deal with "weird sh*t"? Unfortunately, the templar stronghold had its own share of weird stuff going on. Fortunately, I don't have to break character to justify recruiting Cole. Cadash was very grateful to him for helping her out of that mess, so she's willing to take a chance. She still advocated watching him for signs of creepy behaviour. I actually think I like the templar recruitment far more than the mages one. Not sure why, but I think it's because it had a real-world impact, plus the alternate-world-scary-future thing that made Redcliffe fun. It also set up Cole wonderfully, it was rather fun seeing him help out the Inquisitor in his own strange way. There were some rather funny lines between him and smartass Cadash. Plus, I like Ser Barris much more than Fiona. Think I'll be doing this on my next run too.

 

Side note - I love reading people's stories on this thread.

With my current armor and weapon for myself and comapnions, I used a different masterwork instead of increasing the stats. There are fade touched items that increase healing when taking damage or what I use most often is when hit, get 5, 3 or 2 guard. That's what I stuck with for my nightmare run when getting the trophy and its what I and my companions use on my current nightmare run.

 

I agree about the loading times. I play on the ps3.

 

When getting the armor schematic in Hissing Wastes, bring a lot of coin. That schematic and others are expensive

Cool. More than enough for the schematic and the schematics for the arms and legs.

I accidentally soloed the level 21 Emprise du Lion Dragon today.

 

I was level 18 with the companions at level 17, was wondering around the area where the bridge was reconstructed when suddenly Solas goes 'I sense an elven artifact nearby'. So I was like 'Yeah? Well buddy let's go get you your elven artifact fix now'. Then I climbed up this roundabout structure thinking the artifact must be somewhere up top. The moment I scaled the last step, there before my eyes, a great dragon butt with the red bar and level 21 on top of it. 

 

Before I could say 'Solas you dog! That's not an elven artifact!', the dragon turned around and got the party started. Within the first 2 minutes, my squad mates were wiped out and I was fending off a herd of dragon babies. It was a bitter, drawn out fight that lasted 30 minutes the end of which saw the entire plateau littered with dead dragon babies and one dead dragon mama. 

 

My sweet elf lady was a knight enchanter. Knight Enchanter is OP. 

 

The kicker though... I still couldn't find that elven artifact... even after the huge ass dragon boss fight and the dragon baby genocide. 

 

Solas... we need to talk about your direction giving skill.

Killed two more dragons today, got some really awesome gear and tier 4 dragon materials! Finally enough to craft a bow so I ran through Hissing Wastes as soon as possible to get that tier 3 masterwork schematic and damn it's beautiful. Pew pew pew mode activated.

Also Cole is enjoying his brand new daggers and Vivienne got run over by a druffalo, since she never learns that you don't face tank 100 enemies at once as a mage especially when druffalos are near (well knight enchanters are exceptions but she is not that tough...yet lol)

I mean for real, Cory should make a druffalo army to achieve his goals, those sons of b***es are OP...just look at him.

Today Harold left the Hinterlands and went to Val Royeaux. After Lucius' lackey punched the chantry cleric in the jaw, I was very tempted to pick the "saved me the trouble" dialogue, but I thought maybe Cassandra wouldn't like that too much, so I didn't. Sigh. Sera would have enjoyed that, too bad she can't be in the party for that conversation. Oh well. 

 

Harold is back in Haven now, having invited Sera and Vivienne to join the quest, and shared out what precious little mage and rogue gear he's got among his new recruits. Picked up a few schematics at a shop in VR -- damn that place is pricey! -- but I don't have enough of any one kind of leather to craft the new armor I want. D'OH.

 

Had an interesting conversation with Solas about spirits and the fade. Solas is a touchy b*****d when it comes to his spirit friends. We were getting along pretty well until I told him that spirits were bound by their nature, and that he said so himself. He pretty much just sniffed superiorily (is that even a word?) and turned away. Elves. 

 

Then I had a chat with Sera about the Friends of Red Jenny. I still like Sera, but it's kinda refreshing this time to talk to her without trying to romance her. She made mention of me chasing after the "Lord Seeker". I hope she just goofed on that because if Cassandra is a "Lord" Harold is in for a shock in the future. Anyway, since Harold is already an archer, I won't be taking Sera along on too many quests this time around. 

 

Looks like Varric misses out again, too. Oh well. Although Varric was one of my favorites in DA2, I'm finding his self-description of "occasionally unwelcome tagalong" to be fitting more often than not in Inquisition. We'll see if that changes when I play a fighter, or a mage who's not romancing Sera. Then I can bring him out with me more often. 

 

Then I had a talk with Cullen about templar life. Brought a question to my mind. At one point you can ask Cullen about whether templars ever talk to the mages they're guarding, or if they keep their distance. Cullen talks about it being easier for a templar to not get too attached to the potential abomination he may have to decapitate one day. Well... if you play a female mage in Origins, you get a chance to talk with Cullen in the beginning, and you can even flirt with him a bit. He gets flustered and it's kinda funny and blah blah blah. So, if you create a world state with a female mage HoF who did flirt with Cullen etc etc, does he make mention of her in Inquisition at any time? 

 

Anyway, time for Harold to finish conversing with a few more people and get back out there. Skeeter wants to poke holes in the bad guys.

Speaking of druffaloes, and for that matter all other assorted beasties, in my first playthrough, after first opening up Haven and discovering where the smithy is, who the requisitions officer and apothercary are, where the merchant is, first talks with the crew, etc., the area around the village was practically crawling with nugs and rams and even a few druffaloes out by that first logging stand. 

 

In this playthrough I haven't seen a single creature anywhere around Haven. Weird. Maybe the word got out about them being described as 'target practice' and they're all hiding.

Why the silly thing couldn't turn around and follow us back out the way we came in... but oh no, it just had to head towards that rift on the river.  ​

 

Druffy's actions that day caused me to lose any last lingering reservations I had about hunting them for their hides. 

[gottaloveme]

lol my bunch of happy little vegemites (smart arses all) always want to go with the other group. Poor long-suffering Dorian just takes a deep breath and says 'sure Amatus, I'll go with you'.

 

In Awakenings Anders used to complain about sore feet after following me around. And in ME if Kaidan hadn't said 'er I think where we want to go is behind us', Maker knows where we'd be today.

 

Why is it that BW always (always) put a big fricking mountain between you and landmarks, shards, ocularums, camps, and plot points? Bioware!! (shakes fist).

 

@shotgunjulia

So I ran around looking for it, and I couldn't find where we fought those giants and those red lyrium infected giants. They're dead. The place is cleaned out.

 

And I found out why it is taking me so damned long to finish this game. I think I spend half the time running around lost. I know for a fact that a man programmed this because there is no where to ask for directions. You'd think you could stop and ask someone, "Hey, you know where the Templars kept the giants they infected with the red lyrium? Can you tell me how to get there?"

 

"Sure, mate. Go back the way you came until you get to the first place you can make a left. The take it...."l

 

No. Nothing like that exists. In fact they don't put that in any game. Yet the residents should know how to get places. I think game designers do this on purpose to drive us crazy. One time I was playing Sim City and I had this one sim who kept complaining that there wasn't a bus stop near his house, so I put one right in front of his house. And zoomed in to watch. You know he left and walked three blocks to another bus stop, and complained there wasn't a bus stop near his house again. I bulldozed his house. It's good to be a god. If they're not going to put someone there to give directions, how about better maps. You know with details. Like they do with Skyrim. Not this mish mosh and what the hell am I doing over here?

I don't hunt them because they tend to kill me worse than rifts do.
