So, like most people, I used Allistair as my tank. In the past it seemed that once we spotted some enemies he would rush in cast Threaten on himself and then start doing his thing. Well, I'm on the Urn of Sacred Ashes quest in the dungeon and every time we see an enemy he just stands there until I strike first. I've checked the tactics and they seem in order. Zevran charges in and Wynne gets to healing but Allistair just waits. I have Threaten as the first slot in tactics and I used to see him cast that immediately. But not it seems like he justs stands there till I hit something. should i have an attack command in the first slot? i thought Threaten should come first since he's the tank.

Also, in the same dungeons Wyne seems to cast Rock Armor over and over when we are just walking around. I haven't changed her tactics and she never used to do that. I keep hearing it or noticing that her mana is not at 100% between fights and then I "shut it off" but two seconds later she activates it again. Any reason for that?

Thanks a lot.

Check at the very top of Alastairs tactics and make sure it says AGGRESSIVE and not DEFAULT or DEFENSIVE. As far as Wynne, if her tactic is set at SELF>ANY>then ROCK ARMOR, she will cast it no matter what.

Carol is bang on, the Default melee behaviour seems to wait for combat to be initiated before hitting anything. You can experiment with Aggressive, though in my experience that tends to make him run willy nilly all over the battlefield. I tend to stick with Default, and then I just manually send him in to combat at the start... after that Default seems to work fine.



For Wynne you might want to try: Enemy > Any > Rock Armor

at least that will stop her from casting it outside of combat.

Remember it is a sustainable though, so unless you turn it off she will still be carrying it after combat ends.

Thanks a lot guys. This really helps. I think the "any" was confusing me. Does it mean "any circumstance"? I just thought it meant "any circumstance in a battle setting" so it was weird for her to keep casting it outside of battle conditions.
