So: an Inquisition question.

on topic! on topic!

What is Guard intended to represent in-world? Is it supposed to a sort of enhanced defence that effectively protects you from injury for a time? Or something else?

I always imagine guard as representing the character's ability to 'block' an incoming strike.  But since, in general, the engine is not powerful enough to show the complex parries and blocks with shields that would entail it ust gets tied up in a defensive stat that represents more of an ablative armor.  After all, your arm would get tired eventually.

i see it as sort of the ability to block out pain, to take a hit and not go down.

Can only take a certain amount of hits before you start getting tired, I'm sure.

Anyone else a little worried by Andromeda's development?

Nope, it may still be getting worked on but has another 1-2 years at least. anything that happens to staff right now isn't going to throw a big impact in released game.

So I'm annoyed.  Seems I can't charge these headphones and use them at the same time.

Augh. Irritated Dazzle is irritated.

I let Miles and Roy convince me into doing Descent and I don't even have enough power for the blasted DLC, so I'm off closing rifts with my American dwarf who looks like she stuffed a sock down her pants!

The armour for female dwarves is pathetically awful. Seriously, I'm not exagerating about the sock.

Agreed it does suck and sadly all lady dwarves suffer from sock in pants, I try to stick to any armor that allows it to have that area covered some same with the casual clothes in Skyhold. Stupid bulge in pants. *grumble grumble*

I didn't think it represented anything in world. Just a game play feature.

That does not matter at all because a majority of the talking is between the Inquisitor and the two dwarves you meet there. Companions don't add anything. Varric might have a few extra lines, but really that's it. Bring a team that can survive long fights.

Good to know. My drawf Abaeni is already and archer, so I didn't really want to bring Varric unless he really added to the plot. So thinking Abaeni; Blackwall, Dorian, and Vivienne. Or is that too much ranged?

You should be okay. If it becomes difficult, try switching in another warrior. To me, there can never be enough ranged. I love to roll with two archers and two mages. First time doing Descent with Staches I went through with Varric, Dorian, and Solas and we annihilated everything on Nightmare. Aegis of the Rift ability comes in handy on the lower levels of the Roads if you have it.

Nice. I have to bring Blackwall; I have this ocd rule where the quizzies lover has to be along on each adventure, lol. But I think it'll be good! I hope.

I do that too. I like to romance companions as opposed to advisers so I can drag the LI all over the place.
