Is it at all possible to use the toolset to modify your companions? Like deleveling & reassigning their talents, skills. Specialization points etc?

Probably yes though I haven't looked into it. You would have to edit a saved game with the GFF editor in the toolset tools. Then try and find where those attributes are stored and then edit them.

Fudge I was hoping it would be relatively easy.

Do you know if its possible to reset your characters using the console & certain commands?

Good question. I was hoping to create a "Respec pot" in the toolkit, but for the life of me I can't figure it out.

In NWN, it was possible to use the GFF editor to directly edit all party characters in a particular saved game.



Unfortunately, the DA toolset is so damned bugged I cannot start neither the toolset nor the separate GFF editor.



If anyone gets successful with this, please post.



Oh, and it is possible to alter character stats via on-the-fly hex editing (e.g. Cheat Engine). This may help people tweak the party characters to fit their builds. Theoretically, it should also be possible to get extra talent points this way, but I was not able to isolate the relevant bytes. But this would not be the best solution, since even if you succeed in getting extra talents, your old talents would stay, and it will be like cheating instead of changing the build. Again, anyone manages to find a workable solution, please post.

I remember in NWN you could use a Character Editor someone made, and basically delevel your party members, and you. I hope something like that comes out for Dragon Ages. Because as it stands, the damned companions are pre-leveled terribly.

I think Cheathappens made a Trainer that allowed you to delevel, but I don't think it allowed you to delevel party members. :/

For some reason that is very often the case in such games. BG 1 - 2, NWN 2 all suffered from this. Sometimes it was like the characters were played by morons or newbs who had no notion of how to properly level. Of course, it was done in favour of creating "colorful characters" - as if a deliberately gimped build makes them more colorful (poo is certainly a color, but is that really something to aim for?) However, even in cases the builds were okay, still they were forced down the players' throats, severely limiting the "party strategy" that BioWare likes to advertise so much.

In DA, both rogue NPCs are examples of this. Half their talents are totally useless in optimised builds, and their attributes are damned awful. A backstabbing Assassin investing in STR? Just shoot me now, please.

I had high hopes for the toolset to allow me to tweak the builds to my liking, so that I would have a SANE, INTELLIGENT party instead of a bunch of chaotically leveled numbskulls, but alas, the toolset's so bugged it's dead.

I think Cheathappens made a Trainer that allowed you to delevel, but I don't think it allowed you to delevel party members. :/

Even deleveling the main char would prove useful - e.g. to try out a different build without having to restart the game. I'll try this trainer out.
