You people are weird. . . .me and Sten were best buddies right from the start.



not fond of that (blatantly) lesbian nun though.

[mufuti7]

did not like him too much, never took him with me a lot and I dont think he likes my character very much either... :-D

[bleedthefreak]

Maybe it's a bug, but Sten definately does not get a Spec point at 7.

Not a fan of the lesbian "nun"? Not sure why you brought that up in a thread about Sten, but based on my experience so far I'd say he and Leliana are the two best characters in the game.

I got Sten's approval up to the white before the third major quest was over. The key is to keep him in your party (like David Gaider said), and figure out what gifts he likes. He's an awesome dude.

He's decent enough in battle, but the lack of a second spec puts him behind Oghren.



Personality/plot/background/whatever you want to call it, he is by far the weakest party member (except the dog); he's incredibly one note and was given a 'humorous' 'quirk' to make up for it.

I like Sten but he talks too much.

Everyone talks too much in DAO, why cant people just point at a big castle and say stuff like "enter and kill" and let me be on my way?

[Silensfurtim]

at first he was like Sandal. one question, one answer. lol

I also really like Sten but is there any reason why he doesnt get a specialization at level 7? I mean, that makes him strictly worse then Ogrhen(sp)

You can get Sten a specialization, if you wish, once you have it unlocked and he is otherwise eligible. In fact, considering that Sten is the only party members who *doesn't* start with a specialization, he's probably the only one who can do so at level 7.

As far as I've experienced, Sten doesn't get a point at level seven at all.

Ditto.  This seems like an oversight to me.

Maybe because a lot of us like dialogue?

Because this is an RPG not COD.

BTW: cod is a good game for all you haters. But it's got a different purpose than DA:O.

I think he's a by product of a vulcan and klingon philosephy with the body of Goliath.

[Half_john]

I think he's useful in the group. I gave him a 2-H axe with a nice crit chance and he can actually do a lot of damage. My only complain is that he's pretty easy to put down. Whenever he's in the group, I have to constantly watch his healthbar.



Also, I'm getting around mid-game and can't get his sidequest. He never talks about anything. I'm starting to wonder if I had the opportunity to start the quest in a conversation at some point and made the wrong choice. He doesn't really like me but he's like at ... 15-20% ?? Not so bad.

[Pulse.01]

Ahhh Sten, if only there was room for another 2 handed warrior in my group. As it stands now, I fill that slot sir, so you must tend to the camp. When I play through using my Mage, next time, you will have a slot, I assure you. Until then, Au Revoir my good Sten, Au Revoir.

I have the biggest crush on Sten. He is so amazingly awesome he makes me squee when I talk to him.

But seriously, he is awesome. He is up there with Chuck Norris and all things of awesome. I worship him.

rofl @ sten = chuck norris



You can probably replace all chuck jokes with Sten and they would work just fine.

Sten was the easiest after alistair for me to get approval from. The convo you have when freeing him nets me like 20+ points every time I play through that part. I like that agreeing with him is not the way to get him to like you.

[Drabaa]

On the first playthrough I missed him( Lothering destroyed while I checked out the circle tower ), so went with Ali Lei Morr and main offensive mage.

Now rolling with main 2 hander berserker, Sten berserker, Ogh berserker and Morr specced to heal, haste and enchant weapons. Not half as effective as the mage was in himself, but just as stylish as the walking bomb line

Sten is my favorite companion by far, not really good at anything but one of the few guys I don't want to kick in the face twice every hour. Thank god the two worst offenders( Wynne and Zevran ) happen to be the ones that can be killed on sight.

[Bane]

The one thing I don't like about Sten are the responses we get to choose from when he disagrees with what we're doing.

At the start of a side quest he wanted to know why we were running away from battle and not heading straight for the archdemon. There was no option to say that it was a strategic move to gather allies first or that it would be futile to confront the archdemon with the manpower we currently had. He's obviously a smart man and would understand the reasoning if I were able to tell him.

I don't know, it just seems like most of the responses are confrontational and don't make an attempt to appeal to the qunari or warrior aspects of his personality. Considering the reason he was sent to Ferelden you'd think he'd be more interested in learning about why we do the things we do instead of disagreeing with me because the qunari do things differently.

Also, he's level 13-ish in my game and still no specialization point.

[LunSei Sleidee]

As I have stated in many other threads already - Sten has reached top place in my list of "favorite companions". <3

At first, when you meet him in the cage, I was like "well, ok, big warrior, I'll give it a try". Then, after I gifted him with some paintings, my character and him finally got chatting and I started to get really intrigued by this mysterious qunari - and after that he soon surpassed Alistair's role as my favorite male character. Then, awesome scenes with him followed one after another (I won't spoil them here), and he soon surpassed Morrigan as my favorite companion in general. Now, my mage would never leave camp without bringing the Sten with her.

He's a very well-developed character, and I like how he faces my character directly and strongly if she does something he doesn't approve of, and he equally approves when it's MY character who faces him directly and strongly if he does something she doesn't approve of. I also love his hidden sweet side - really now, he's just a big softie.
I loved finding out that there's a scene when.... slight spoiler here..... Sten fights you for supremacy as the party leader. That's how I like my companions - not mindless followers and not treacherous backstabbers, but npcs who actually have such a strong personality to attempt to take the player's role.

[StuartMarshall]

I think Sten is a preview of what may be to come in future games.

He's cold and hard to get through to but strong and hard-set in his ways. He also muses that...

...

...

*S P O I L E R*

... that the Qunari are almost certain to invade Ferelden some day which makes me wonder if DA2 or DA3 will have a "reverse Crusades" with the "muslims" (Qunari) invading the "Christians" (Ferelden) rather than vice versa that we saw in our world. The Qunari are strong and honorable but seem to believe their way is the proper way (much like most religious types in the world today) and hence are likely to use that as justification to launch an invasion of Ferelden, which could be an awesome storyline in a future game (with the lustre of the darkspawn having worn off).

Sten also says in some of his latter dialogue that he hopes he isn't alive to see the day when the Qunari invade which implies he is one of the nice and tolerant ones. Some of the hardcore militant ones could be pure frightening!

Sten disapproves (-10)



I can't get to grips with him - and we actually came to blows at one point. Plus he got his head handed to him several times during a major dungeon crawl, which I perversly enjoyed seeing.



It's nice hearing him whine 'I need bandages' after he got knocked on his tucus for the umpteenth time.

Sten is sick in combat. One you find his sword and hook him up with 2-hand upgrades he is Hitting for sick damage.

My current setup however is- 2 warriors with 2-hand weapon use(main chr warrior)
Sten 2h
Main 2h
Morrigan frost max +shapeshift
Shale Meatwall +cc

[Seraosha]

On my play through, Sten was an absolute beast. I struggle to play DA without Sten in the party actually, his raw brute force often wins the day. Plus he does have some amusing lines in relation to other party members. Good character basically.
