I could use some advice. My level 9 party (Pc-mage, cole, solas, blackwall), does what I consider to be dreadful dps.

the weapons they carry have the following dps:

 

PC mage-- 53

cole-- 141 and 127 daggers

solas-- 44

blackwall 107

 

It takes me almost 30 seconds for my party to kill a single little bear in the woods. It's hard for me to believe the game is intended to be this way.

What should I research to improve my dps?  do  you think it's the weapons I have are inadequate, or should I research changing the character builds?

 

thx

Bears are hard, for one.

To me, the only thing that looks terribly underpowered for your level are the daggers and whatever Blackwall is using. I'm level 8 myself this time around and I've crafted daggers that do 200+ dps.

As for BW, if that's a two hander, I suppose that's okay, but I think u can do better. Off the top of my head, Haft of the Mtn Father from the Fallow More quest line is better and best done in the level 6-8 range, imo. If one hander, ive crafted an Axe for Cass that does 133 dps.

Hope that helps, give u some guidance.

Craft your own gear. and always equip your party with the best that you can find. I always invested in myself and ignored the party members. They got butchered all the time because their builds and equipments sucked. I see your a mage. If your a mage take care when choosing a specialization. Rift Mage is the best of the 3, but if you want to be godlike pick KE.

 Crafted gear is the key to success - as mentioned above.

 Save coin for patterns, get Tier 2 and Tier 3 crafting materials, and go nuts.

You have the right gear, numbers are good for your level.. what you don't realize is that Bears are the toughest enemies of the entire game! Not joking!

 

Spoiler

I swear if Corypheneus didn't bother with Venatori or Templars and instead recruited the bears he would have won easily

Craft your gear. It will be 10 times better than anything you find.  I always just made sure I had the best gear and kept getting decimated at every turn. Once I crafted some gear for the rest of the party, it's a cakewalk.

In general the damage you are able to deal in Dragon Age: Inquisition is very low.

The entire idea of the game is to have you spend as much time on the game as possible. To ensure this the developers use a lot of parameters to adjust this.
Every time you have to pick up something = 3 - 10 seconds
Opening chests and doors = 5 - 30 seconds
Movement speed
Accessing quests
Accessing quest items
Time to draw weapon and reverse

Onscreen messages/menus

Add fight damage to this. The lower damage the longer you fight.

Everything is meant to steal your time, and secure you don't finish the game too quick.

Like others mentioned bears are tough customers, so I wouldn't worry.

You can craft yourself tier 2/3 gear which will grant you higher dps than the game would normally see as suitable for your level, but I'd say what you have now is adequate. The thing is, you're expected/encouraged to coordinate with your party into attack combos for the good dps (you can't freeze->shatter bears but iirc you can sleep->rupture them) so it may be a good idea to look into that. Rather than just brute-force everything with the Supergear and complain the game is nothing but brainless button mashing.

Amusingly enough, the Power Creep from DA:O to DA:2 to DA:I has the player in their highest damaging state ever in a Dragon Age game, the numbers are quite huge compared to what they were in DA:O and DA:2.   Hell, and total health was capped around 400-600 in DA:2.

Cole's weapons are terrible, solas isn't looking too hot either. Mages aren't DPS masters in general (exceptions exist), and your DPS guy is cole who has 2 terrible daggers, which is definately hurting your DPS potential.

Did you buy the tier 2 schematics from the Val royeux merchants? If not I'd check them out, craft a couple good staffs for your mages with upgrades, and buy a sacrificial dagger there too. This will double your DPS potential from 3 party members.

The sacrificial dagger has between 187-257 DPS.

 

If you really want DPS, go to the hissing wastes. Avoid fighting. There are puzzle quests there that give the best schematics in the game, and they can be solved and found without fighting. At level 9 my main rogue was using 2 daggers with over 300 DPS each, which kinda broke the game. I can't believe schematics don't have level requirements...

[Pluvie]

If you're not terribly stuck and cannot defeat even the simplest encounters I would actually advise against craft superior tier items.

 

I did it in one playthrough and it absolutely broke the game. The power gap between a tier 1 schematic with tier 1 materials and a tier 2 schematic with tier 2 material is so big that it dumbs down even the most difficult and arguably enjoyable battles. I ended up deleting my character and remaking it because seeing bosses go down in seconds really removes all the fun, at least for me.

Yeah,

I wanted to get the AOE dagger for my rogue, and the only one I found easy access to was the masterwork tier 3 one from hissing waste. Kind of ironic. I had to bump the difficulty to keep playing.

Its not broken though, I have other limits, like I don't use any focus and I don't control my teamamtes.

 

Another game-breaker comes from potions. Its not hard to fully upgrade the regen potion. A fast, heavy AOE heal-over-time that lastes over a minute. Health pots eat your heart out.
