Have you ever laughed hard during a battle?

I can think of two moments like that. The first one was during the final battle. Zevran was surrounded by 5 or 6 enemies and before I could rescue him, the enemy mage sent a fireball. He had about 70 % magic protection (spellward, Wonder's of Thedas ring + runes) at the time. He was knocked down, but hardly harmed while the enemies near him were all dead. The second time was when I was playing as an Arcane Warrior. I pulled my team into the next room when the Tevinter slaver mage started Blizzard. They didn't follow us but the mage used inferno after that. My PC sent an earthquake followed by tempest before sending the melee team in. By the time we arrived, all the enemies were dead except the slaver who had very little health left.

I'm laughing just picturing the scenes you described!  (Also because my canon Warden would have paid very good money to watch - or more likely help kill - the Tevinter slavers in the second one.  His attitude towards slavery and Tevinter in general might make Fenris look reasonable at times.)

Yeah most of my wardens dislike slavery as do most of my Hawkes in fact most if not all my Heroes have disliked it in one way or another

My funniest moment happened because of a glitch. In the tower battle at Ostagar, it couldn't be decided who would land the final blow on the ogre. So... togetherness:

[springacres]

I just triggered Zev's "naughty poem" conversation in the main hall of Redcliffe Castle, right in front of Eamon, Isolde and Teagan.

 

My F!Tabris was blushing visibly in spite of her dark skin.

Another one... I just did a City Elf Origin test run using the Cocky Male Elf voice, and my character yelled "Bad breath alert!" as a mabari was charging him from 10-20 feet away.

 

I now have a new favorite voice set

Oh, oh. I must try that voice set. Without this forum, I would have not known you could change the default voice. I love the variations Bioware provides with wardens.

Ah, yes, the cocky male elf voice... "Can I get you a ladder so you'll get off my back?"

Actually, that's the violent voice set, but hearing my F!Aeducan say that always cracks me up too.  XD

Nah, that's violent. And the only reason I don't use that voice set...

Playing through as a casteless dwarf. He went to feed the prisoner at Ostagar, but before asking the guard for his lunch, he tried to steal from him (hey, old habits die hard!).

 

Later, when returning to Duncan after meeting up with Alistair, a conversation was triggered between Duncan and a knight, with the knight complaining that one of his soldiers reported my character trying to pick his pocket! This game still has the power to surprise!

My Female Surana and Sten.

"You look like a woman."

"I am a woman."

"No your a Grey Warden - you can't be a woman and fight."

"Why is that?"

"Becuase men are warriors and traders, , while woman are shop keepers and artisans." (Forgive me if I got that wrong.)

"Well I am a woman and I'm fighting!" - My Surana's motto

"No. You can't be."

"We're going around in a loop here..."

(I forgot the rest)

[straykat]

I always get a giggle with Master Ignacio.. When he finally gets fed up and stops in the innuendo. "Happy now?!"

 

I can't think of any random glitches though.

Dog being naughty with Morrigan... TROLOLLOL dog.

My canon Warden's reaction was equally trollish.  I headcanon that he told Zev and Alistair about the conversation afterwards and the three of them laughed their asses off.

I image my Male Cousland wouldnt do that; he's mister super serious. His humor vanished once his parents died, I supposed.

My Female Cousland would do this. So would my Female Amell.

Well, my M!Surana could barely tolerate Morrigan on a good day, so that definitely plays into it.

I see. Brendan romanced her so that's why. My others were more into teasing Morrigan (F!Cousland)... Or there was my Amell... I don't think she and Morrigan ever got along, but the DA helped slightly.

There are plenty hilarious moments, I can't recall them all at once. One that comes to mind is a duel with Loghain with my 2H warrior. He had like 2% of his health left and I used the Mighty Blow. The "stunning blows" effect triggered just as the fight ended, so Loghain had those little stars twirling over his head in the following cutscene. Kind of ruined the whole drama. 

 

Another funny moment to me is the heartwarming reunion between my mage Warden and Greagoir. He just looks so exasperated during the whole scene, like "Maker, why her again?" The dialogue is gold.

 

"Heyy, Greagoir, good to see you again!"

"Look who's back. Glad you didn't die."

"You don't mean that :)"

"Perhaps. <...> Don't think I've forgotten your role in Jowan's escape!"

"You can't still be upset about that."

(paraphrased)

[springacres]

Yeah, the reunion between my mages and Greagoir is always awkward.  My M!Surana had always been nervous around him to begin with, didn't tell Irving about Jowan's plan and was, quite frankly, shaking in his shoes during that first conversation.  My M!Amell was a little more confident, because he did tell Irving and (unwillingly) led Jowan and Lily into the trap, so at least he could say he was under orders.  (And, quite possibly, because he wasn't an elf and didn't have such strong negative associations with armor-wearing humans before he was taken to the Circle.)

My Female Amell would be so proud of you; she's always been one for snarking Gregior whenever she got the chance. (Btw, all my told Ivirng of what Jowan was doing...)

During my latest playthrough of the Redcliffe battle, when rushing from the upper part by the path to the lower part in front of the town Chantry, I accidentally clicked on Alistair, triggering the “May we please go to Denerim to find my half-sister” conversation.

 

“This might not be the best time to talk about this...” No duh, Alistair. There’s an army of walking corpses ready to gobble up the townsfolks’ flesh, and you want to chat about your family?

 

That was an annoying battle, BTW. Lloyd kept running off on his own, right into walking corpses as they spawned. “Maker’s breath, man, are you suicidal? You don’t even have any armor!” Miraculously, he survived. (Tomas was not so lucky.)

Trying to steal stuff from Knight-Commander Gregoir (with low cunning and only 1 skill point):

 

[Stealing failed]

 

Gregoir: "Resorting to petty thievery now?"

[DeathWalksBehindYou]

I was a complete and utter sadist during my last playthrough of Lothering, using archery to lure wolves and bears into town, to see if I could get them to attack, say, Elder Miriam. They didn’t, but when one of the bears crossed the bridge, the little red-haired boy crying for his mother (“I’m cold! I don’t like this!”) bolted into the center of town. I was hoarse from laughter! I’m a terrible person!

"Sten... where did you get the cookies?"

 

"There was a child in the village we passed. A fat, slovenly thing. I relieved him of his confections. He didn't need more."

 

"YOU STOLE COOKIES FROM A CHILD??!!"

 

"For his own good."

 

Slaughtered families aren't the only way Sten has been terrorizing the Ferelden countryside...
