We go to the Inner Lands to meet with the leader of the uprising.
At the gate to Redcliffe, an unusual rift appears that distorts time. Anyone who goes beyond the line or is directly near the yellow circle accelerates, while the green circles opposite slow down. This applies to both enemies and allies. The speed changes approximately twice and affects all actions.
Afterwards, the entrance to the village will be open, but as it turns out, no one is waiting for us there. We find Fiona in the Seagull and Lighthouse tavern. Confused, she insists that she has not visited Val Royeaux for a long time and has already connected the rebel magicians with the service of Tevinter Empire. The conversation is interrupted by the Tevinter Master Hermione Alexius accompanied by his retinue, as well as his son Felix. He intends to keep the sworn magicians to serve his own interests. Suddenly, the master’s son becomes ill and he leans on our hero, thereby quietly conveying to him a message about a meeting in the church.
At the appointed place we find the magician fighting off the demons and help him. His name is Dorian Pavus, he comes from Tevinter and suspects his former teacher Alexius of manipulating time. We learn from Felix that his father contacted the organization Venatori who are very interested in getting to the Messenger.
At the command table you still have a choice. The journey called “Tempting Whispers” will completely eliminate the possibility of an alliance with the templars. The quest Defenders of Justice will become unavailable.
In order to go to the castle, 15 Influence points are required. Recommended level is from 4 to 7.
Tempting whisper
Set aside any extra armor and weapons for the mage in your inventory.
It became known that Alexius had settled in Redcliffe Castle and wanted to talk. Fearing a trap, the council decided to strike first. Leliana remembers that there is a secret passage under the old mill. The scouts will quietly sneak into the castle and eliminate the master's men while the Messenger is at the reception. Dorian insists on his presence and it will not be possible to go without him, but it will be possible to take two more companions.
When meeting, Alexius mentions the name Senior and reveals his motive to get rid of the Inquisitor. He points his amulet at the hero. Dorian tries to stop him and both of you are pulled into the portal...
You find yourself somewhere in the prison dungeons of the castle. Dorian suggests that you were transported not only in space, but also in time.
Everywhere the castle is overgrown with red lyrium, where it does not grow, it illuminates the corridors curtain fire. At the crossroads, where you will come across two more guards, turn left. Below, in one of the far chambers, find the sorceress Fiona. She will tell us that a whole year has passed since you went missing. The Inquisition has been destroyed...
Now we need to find Leliana. But before you go looking for her, free your companions. Return to the intersection and follow the door opposite. They sit in cages and are still able to fight, although they are also affected by the red taint. You can free them before talking to Fiona, it doesn't change anything.
When fighting the Venatori, try to get rid of the spellcasters first.
Leliana is in the torture chamber. You will recognize her by her voice during interrogation behind one of the doors. But it will be difficult to recognize her face. The martyr will break the executioner's neck, pick up a bow and help him get to Alexius.
We take the key on the floor and look for a way to get into the throne room. Along the way you can find a Pier with two ghosts and a cache. We deal with the Venatori and close the gaps.
If the boy Connor was saved in the first part of the game, you can meet him in the castle, burning himself alive.
The door leading to the throne room is locked, but reacts to red lyrium. To open it, you need to collect four more such fragments from killed spellcasters.
We meet Alexius calling him to account. He is broken, depressed, it would seem that he is ready to admit guilt. But Leliana kills his son as payback and he attacks in rage.
The Master uses Barrier. Immune to sleep, freeze, stun and paralysis. However, he may be knocked down, cold, scared and shocked.
When his health is reduced by about a third, he will hide behind the barrier and open a gap. Then he will repeat this trick again. We take it from him Staff of Stagnation and Amulet.
Something with its demonic army breaks into the castle. Leliana and the others remain behind to hold off the enemy forces, sacrificing themselves. Dorian and our hero using the amulet return to the present time.
Alexius will give in immediately. The King pays a visit to Redcliffe Castle Alistair and/or queen Anora. By the power of Ferelden, rebel magicians are expelled from the kingdom. The magicians have no choice but to join the wing of the Inquisition. But under what conditions is up to you to decide. Is it worth entering into an equal alliance with the magicians or assigning complete control over them...
Advisors have different opinions among themselves regarding the decision you made.
In the meantime, Dorian will offer his help, and if he accepts it, he will become a full-fledged member of your squad.

/ Answer to the game: / What secrets are there in Dragon Age: Inquisition?
What secrets are there in Dragon Age: Inquisition?
04/05/2015As in many other large-scale and not-so-large games, in Dragon Age: Inquisition the developers tried to do everything so that the player could expect as many different secrets and Easter eggs as possible.
So, the authors did not forget to mention their other outstanding masterpiece brainchild - Mass Effect. For example, on the co-op map Orlesian Castle, the player has the opportunity to find a trophy room in the mansion. There you can see the head of a krogan above the heads of the bear and wolf.
Also, the head of a representative of this race can be found during the single-player campaign, and in at least two places: at the Orlais Ball in the Winter Palace and in the castle of Caer Oswin.
There is even a mention, perhaps, best game in the tower defense genre recent years- Plants vs Zombies. To see them, in Crestwood you can go from the camp at the Three Trout Farm (in the southeast of the village) down to the Linden Farm, next to the house you will see huge flowers growing, and burnt bodies lie on the approaches. And on the roof of the same farm you can find the diary of crazy Davet (a reference to Crazy Dave from PVZ), which describes the battles of plants against the living dead.
There are other secrets in Dragon Age: Inquisition, for example, quotes from famous films (The Sixth Sense, Star wars, Soylent Green) and many others.
How can you get a horse in Dragon Age: Inquisition for free and is it even possible?
Once you find yourself in the Hinterlands, you should head to the western corner, where you can receive a quest called "Horse Master". There you will immediately be able to notice the large stables, as soon as you notice them, you should climb the hill of the large farm and find Master Dennett there. He will offer you conditions - agree to them in order to receive a free Ferilden Forder. When leaving the house, you can pick up a horse (with saddles) in the stable on the right side of the road.
Infinite skill points in Dragon Age: Inquisition, as well as gold. Hints and help for beginners.
After your quick journey, the chest is regenerated, but only if there is more than one item left in it and if it has not been robbed. In one of the chests you can find an Amulet of Power and when you can find a chest with several items, including an Amulet of Power, this vulnerability will work. You should leave all other items and take only the Amulet of Power and fast travel back to Skyhold. Then you should return to the chest again for the Amulet of Power to appear again. This vulnerability should be exploited in Crestwood Village, but to do this you will first have to unlock the "Nimble Hands, Tools" perk. To unlock the desired perk, you need four other skills in the Secrets Section. This is what will allow Crooks to open Masterpiece Locks. Then leave Skyhold again and head to a village called Crestwood, where you should turn right and move up to find a shack that has been locked up. Open the door and look around the fireplace, carefully examine the floor in order to find the Amulet of Power, as well as the Golden Amulet. If you take two items at once, nothing will work, so take only the Amulet of Power, leaving the Gold one lying on the floor. After this, you should again move outside the village, then return to the village of Crestwood, to the same shack and you will again see the Amulet of Power. You can repeat these manipulations as many times as you need, thereby you receive an infinite number of skill points.
How to get infinite gold in Dragon Age: Inquisition. Is it possible?
1. First, mark a leather or metal item (any) as valuable, then go to any store and click “Sell All”, then “Sell” faster. Your item will increase by 100 or double if you open the redemption screen. Repeat this process as much as you wish, thereby getting what you want.
2. On the War table you should launch an operation called “Collect a coin”; you can do this with absolutely any character. Then exit the game completely and reset the system time on your PC (one hour ahead) and restart the game. As soon as the action is completed, you will be able to collect the reward. Do this as much as you need, but do not forget to return the corrected time to its place.
"Scales of the Winged Dragon."
Upon reaching level thirteen, head to Hissing Wastes, where you should make your way to the oasis, which is located on the western side of the map. After you kill all the enemies you meet along the way, you will find those same “Winged Dragon Scales”, for which you can get 4000G. Thanks to this, you will receive both good points and a lot of gold.
Large, well-developed game projects have one important feature - a huge number of various elements that should be taken into account when playing through the game. Most of them can be described in a couple of paragraphs, so it would not be wise to create a separate post for each tip or recommendation. Here I decided to describe all the elements, details and minor points that can seriously make it easier for you passing Dragon Age: Inquisition and make it more fun.
Almost any major role-playing game is quite difficult to start. The thoughts in your head begin to get confused - first you think about choosing a race, then you immediately move on to considering the class, and after a couple of minutes things start to creep into your head interesting ideas on killing high dragons, and at this time the menu with the character editor is still “hanging” on the monitor screen. In general, sometimes you give up because of such huge opportunities, because sometimes you really don’t know where exactly to start. I hope my advice will help you overcome this minor crisis.
Take advantage of Dragon Age Keep
Team BioWare launched a special Internet portal for its new project, which allows you to study in more detail the game events that occurred in the first two games of the series, as well as choose what you would do in certain situations. After this you can import cos this world in Inquisition. This is a very innovative solution, because no one has created such a system before.Choose your race carefully
When choosing a race, you should rely not only on your own tastes and preferences, but also on distinctive features race That is, if you like to play as a robber, then it is best to choose an elf, since representatives of this race are excellent at dodging long-range attacks. Qunari have increased resistance to close-range attacks, so they make excellent warriors. Dwarves are not afraid of magical attacks, since they have considerable resistance to magic, but at the same time they cannot become magicians. Humans are given an extra skill point, making them a versatile race and an excellent choice for beginners.Do not also forget that the choice of race will depend relationship game characters to the main character. In the Dragon Age universe, people still tower over other races, elves are not considered at all, gnomes are practically not noticed, since they rarely come to the surface, and the Qunari are considered strangers with a culture and traditions incomprehensible to many.
Think carefully about playing as a mage
Each class in Dragon Age: Inquisition is interesting in its own way and is very different from the other with many characteristics. However, magicians still have a peculiar advantage. If you decide to play as a magician, you will be able to more deeply experience the global conflict that has arisen between the templars and magicians. This confrontation was shown in almost all games in the series, and it is much more interesting to follow it if it is directly related to it. In addition, magicians have an excellent set of spells, thanks to which you can easily change the composition of your party depending on the situation.Plus, magicians have an interesting specialization that allows you to complete the game as a sorcerer knight, that is, your magician at one point turns into a powerful melee fighter. Something similar was introduced back in Dragon Age: Origins.
Change the composition of your party
In the first and second parts of Dragon Age most of time, I ran around with the party collected at the very beginning of the game. In Inquisition things are a little different. Naturally, I also have favorites in the game, with whom I would like to spend much more time than with other companions. However, one day, going to a non-dangerous region, I decided to change my already established game and take a couple of “newbies”. As a result, I saw them from a completely different side. Firstly, there are new conversations and dialogues that allow us to better understand the motives and personalities of the characters. Secondly, at higher levels their fighting style turned out to be more effective than I previously thought. In general, you shouldn’t constantly go with the same heroes - change them when going to a non-dangerous location and, perhaps, the passage will become even more interesting for you.Give due attention to the character editor
The guys from BioWare managed to develop an excellent character editor, thanks to which you can create a truly unique protagonist, and not plan out another “Pinocchio” and go straight into battle. Don't be lazy and give it due attention. Naturally, there is no need to go to extremes, sitting over the editor all day long, trying to create perfection itself.Don't be afraid to start over
Everyone can make a mistake, but not everyone tries to correct it. If after going through the introduction you realized that the created character is absolutely not suitable for you (you don’t like him appearance, class or race), then start the game again. It's better to go through the prologue again than to play over a hundred hours with a character you don't like.Don't be lazy to use the search button
The search button will be useful not only for collecting " loot" - the fact is that she is able to highlight everything important items surrounded, and therefore with its help you can easily find the things you need for your assignment.Turn off lip gloss in the editor
When creating a character, be sure to turn off the lip gloss feature. To do this, go to the “Makeup” section and set the slider of the corresponding indicator to zero. If you don't do this or set the gloss to minimum, then the lips of the character you create will shimmer a lot in the cutscenes, which personally annoyed me.You can almost freely redistribute your character’s skills only once
Not far from the forge located in the Vault, you can find a small stall - it is located on the right side of the exit. In it you will find an amulet that gives you the opportunity to redistribute the main character’s skills. For the first time you will only be charged one coin. This way, you can change skills at the very beginning if you don’t like some of them. However, I recommend saving the game before doing this. This will help you redistribute several times until you find the optimal skill set.First of all, explore the territory of the Vault
Very soon after you start playing Dragon Age: Inquisition, you will be allowed to walk through your new home in the Vault. Formally, you will already be able to go to the Inner Lands in order to begin completing secondary tasks, exploring new locations, and so on. However, I recommend you stay a while in the Vault. Be sure to check what quests are available in the Vault section and try to complete them. This will lead to new Vault-related missions appearing as you venture into the Hinterlands. These tasks can be an excellent source of experience at the initial stage of the game.Knowledge is power!
Dragon Age: Inqusition features a very informative code, in which you can find a lot of useful information about the characters, creatures, kingdoms and events of the world of Thedas. Be sure to check it out, especially if you haven't played the first two games in the series or have forgotten what exactly happened in them. It would also be a good idea to take a look at the wiki. This will help you get accustomed to the universe faster and create a personal attachment to the game world. In this case, playing through the game will become much more interesting.Remember to use research items for their intended purpose
In the Vault, in Josephine's office, you can find a character heading various research projects. She takes yellow research items, which are necessary to obtain additional experience and damage. Therefore, upon returning to the fortress, be sure to visit this NPC. You can even write a reminder on some piece of paper or on your smartphone, since it is very easy to forget about it.Runes can be replaced
Runes are incredibly useful additions to equipment. Most weapons can only be equipped with one rune, which adds a unique type of damage to it (Cold, Spirit, Electricity, and so on). The rune is used only once, that is, having installed it in a weapon, you cannot then remove the rune back. But it can be replaced with a stronger rune.Upgrades for Bianca are sold on the market
Bianca is the crossbow of the dwarf Varric. Fortunately or unfortunately, it is the main weapon for this character, so it should be constantly improved, otherwise the effectiveness of the crossbow will sharply decrease. By the way, the main merchant in the Vault will give you one type of each improvement for Bianca completely free of charge. After that, you can go to the forge and put these improvements on the crossbow. This procedure can be an excellent mini-training in improving your own weapons.Perform any available operations
The Inquisitor's companions can perform three operations at once. As soon as the operation is completed, you will immediately receive a corresponding message. You can easily forget about this and continue playing. So try right away come back to the military table in order to again involve his comrades in new operations.Some of the operations can take quite a long time, since the game takes into account real time. Therefore, leave your advisors to perform the longest of them at night. It is not necessary that the game be turned on - missions continue to be completed even if Inquisition is turned off.
Take care of your helmets
In the game, you can enable or disable the display of a helmet on a character. This means that technically the hero will wear a helmet and receive all the benefits from wearing it, but at the same time he will become completely invisible in the cut scenes of the game. This feature is very useful, because many people want to see the face of a character that some might have spent a couple of hours creating.Don't forget to visit your base from time to time
Exploring new regions and completing missions is, of course, good, but do not forget to visit your base from time to time. There are a huge number of things that you can only do in Skyhold that can help you on the battlefield. Therefore, after completing a quest or completing a goal, think about whether it’s worth returning to the fortress now to assess the situation and plan further actions.Make not weapons, but armor
Most of good weapons you will most likely find them on the corpses of killed enemies or in chests. I don’t claim that this applies to everyone, since no one has yet canceled randomness. However, for me, creating weapons turned out to be not very profitable, so I switched to armor. In addition, when I started hunting dragons, I acquired a lot of valuable items that made excellent armor.Develop upgrades for your equipment
I almost never came across any good upgrades for equipment in the outer lands, so I recommend it create them yourself. Add-ons like these can save your life or help you defeat a particularly strong opponent. For this reason, you shouldn’t put the creation of improvements on the back burner, but rather start doing it as early as possible.Constantly communicate with your companions
Fighting monsters and running around can sometimes be incredibly fun, but don't forget that this is a role-playing project from BioWare, which encourages conversations with your companions. The developers did their best - each companion turned out to be unique, and talking with many of them is no less exciting than handing out punches left and right. With the right conversation, you can unlock various quests and additional abilities from your comrades in arms, and even start a romance with some.Check out retail outlets in Orlesian cities
In the first half of the game, according to the plot, you have to go to a large city located in Orlais. Several of Dragon Age: Inquisition's best merchants operate here. For example, in this city you can find a merchant who sells pure rune stones for almost nothing.Take everything that is not screwed to the floor
Be sure to pick up things dropped from enemies or lying in chests. Even if you come across “junk”, you can still sell it, and our Inquisitor really needs money. In addition, you can often find quite valuable materials necessary for crafting powerful weapons or strong armor.Listen to the bard in the tavern
In the Vault tavern you can find a wonderful bard girl who can sing several different songs for you. You can greatly expand its repertoire by collecting lyrics from other songs. This has little effect on the plot, but it increases the atmosphere of the game.Don't leave your comrades unchecked in battle
The normal difficulty level allows you to focus all your attention only on the main character, allowing the rest of the party to act independently. However, in some fights, for example with high dragons, without additional control of companions it is better don't leave, since only you can correctly place your characters, formulate competent tactics and dodge flying projectiles well. In addition, by controlling your companions, you will learn what it is like to play other classes in this RPG. Often, when walking through the wild lands, your hero or companions may say a phrase like “It would be nice to look around.” It means that there is some kind of hidden object near you. You can find it using the search button. In addition, such areas are usually highlighted on the mini-map. However, they are easy to miss, so always listen to what your comrades in arms are telling you, because there may well be excellent armor or useful materials lying in the nearby bushes.Don't overestimate your capabilities
Each zone has a recommended level range. Therefore, if you decide to go to a region for high-level characters with a low-level hero, then you will most likely have to be carried out of there feet first. But you should also not spend hours wandering around low-level locations, otherwise at a certain point you will simply outgrow the unexplored zones, and going through them will become much more boring, because the objects found there will not correspond to your parameters, and the monsters will not be able to oppose you.Look for astrariums
Astrariums- These are mysterious devices created during the time of the true power of the Teventir Empire and scattered throughout Thedas. In Dragon Age: Inquisition, the player can find astrariums to receive pentagonal chests as a reward.Astrarium quests are issued in almost every more or less large location in the game. To do this, you need to find the astrarium on the map, which is indicated with a special icon: four-pointed star in a circle. Most astrariums are located on hills, so near higher elevations, try to find a path leading to the top of the hill.
After activating the astrarium, a menu with a constellation will open on your monitor screen. Your goal will be to connection all stars as indicated in the figure in the lower right corner, while it is forbidden to go through each line more than once.
Some constellations may be difficult for you, but if you know exactly how the system works, it will become much easier to open them. The main thing is to find the stars in it where it converges odd number lines. When you find them, you should start with one of them and finish with the other, otherwise you will not be able to solve the problem.
However, in a number of constellations of similar stars it may not to be. Then you can start solving the puzzle from any star, but you will have to finish your journey there. Sometimes you come across constellations with extra stars, that is, they are completely no need lead the lines. To avoid falling for the trick, carefully study the diagram presented at the bottom of the screen. After drawing all the lines, you should click on the “finish” button located on the left and then the true appearance of the constellation will be revealed to you.
After activating your first astrarium, you will immediately be given a quest to find the remaining constellations. All of them will be marked on the map. To complete this task you will have to activate them all. The last of the astrariums will indicate the approximate location of the cave where a reward for your labors will await you. The exact location is not marked, so you will most likely have to carefully explore the location. The entrance to the cave is usually hidden among trees or small hills. There may be different opponents inside: from giant spiders to the vile living dead. Here you will find pentagonal chests, where rare equipment is stored.
In total, Dragon Age: Inquisition features fifteen astrariums - three for each of the five game levels: Crestwood, Storm Coast, Hinterlands, Emerald Graves and Western Reach. For activating all the constellations you will be given the “Stargazer” achievement.
If you hurry, you will make people laugh
Don't rush and make rash decisions. Plan your next step carefully and set several goals at a time. You don’t need to rush through the story like a locomotive, otherwise you’ll miss out on a lot of interesting things the developers have prepared for you. Moreover, in this case, you will not be able to get used to the world and personally experience all the hardships, joys and losses of the Inquisitor. Also try to explore new zones, where you can meet many interesting characters and complete a couple of exciting quests. Some side missions are almost as intense as the main storyline in terms of intensity and unexpected twists.In difficult battles, use tactical mode
Most battles on medium difficulty won't pose much of a challenge to you. But in some battles you will still have to work hard. Can ease a serious battle tactical mode, with which you can assess the situation and plan your further actions. Therefore, you should not neglect them.This is not an escape! This is a tactical retreat!
Anything can happen in the game, including getting into a situation where you can't win. In this case, it may be much wiser not to die along with your comrades on the battlefield, but to try to escape, regroup your forces and re-engage in battle. Remember, this is not a flight, but simply a tactical retreat, so do not reproach yourself for such actions.Before replenishing potions, drink the remaining ones in your inventory
Quite often, when completing tasks, you will notice boxes with elixirs on the ground. They are very useful, since potions are one of the most effective ways treating the hero during battles. But before replenishing your supplies, instruct your companions to drink all the elixirs they have left. This will replenish their health bar and maximize their total hit points before you take more potions.Keep companions of different classes with you
Thedas has many closed locations that can be accessed in several ways. For example, robbers can open locked doors, only warriors can break through fragile walls, and only magicians can remove magical barriers. Therefore, I recommend keeping as diverse a team as possible in your party.Conquer mountain peaks
Finally in a BioWare game main character can jump. Now fences and fallen trees are no obstacle for you. Moreover, if you wish, you can even climb to the top of a nearby mountain. The main thing is not to give up when you slip and continue to jump towards your dream. When you get to the very top, your party members will automatically be transferred to you.In later stages of the game you can skip normal equipment
Towards the end, picking up simple equipment will become unprofitable, since they will be bought in stores for next to nothing, but at the same time they will take up useful place in your inventory. Collect only purple and blue items.I guess I'll end here. If you also have useful tips, then you can write them in the comments to the post.
So, we decided to prepare for you a guide to passing the game, thereby arming you with knowledge so that in the future you will not have any serious problems with the game. This guide will appear in the form of tips.
Unfortunately, you will not be able to transfer saves from previous games in the series, but this does not mean that all your old achievements and awards will just disappear - nothing has been forgotten. All decisions that you once made in, as well as in, will be transferred to the new part. To do this, you just have to use a service called Dragon Age Keep. Using this program, you will transfer all the brightest and most epic events from past games in the series, all old parameters will be restored. Thus, any decision made a long time ago will be reflected in the new world of the game. And besides this, you have a great opportunity to refresh old memories from past parts.
This is, so to speak, a “personnel” issue and in the game it is almost the most important. You will spend the bulk of your journey in this wonderful game in pleasant company, so it is very important to ensure that your team is balanced. You must have a warrior with a shield, as he will take all the enemies' attention. It is also extremely important to have one robber and one mage. The magician will be able to support your entire group, and not only you, even your other allies. And the rogue will deal the most damage - which is very important. Well, give the last place to the one you like best. At the very beginning of the game you will get a balanced group: here you will have a warrior or, as everyone used to call him, a “tank” - Cassandra, an interesting magician named Solas, and old Varrick, known to everyone as a robber. A little later, of course, you can easily change your composition.
We'll try to figure it out for you this advice on magicians. In your organization you can recruit three magicians who can be in your group, they are Vivien, Solas and Dorian. Please note that you should not develop heroes according to the same template, that is, put all your skill points into the same pyromancy. Let each of your heroes develop in different directions; for magicians, let it be a school of spirit, lightning, cold and much more. The main thing is that all this does not happen again! Thus, do the same with warriors and robbers - develop them in different directions! Also choose your party members so that the team is unique and not repeated!
While traveling around the world, you will encounter more than one barrier on your way. Such barriers usually block the path to something very valuable and interesting. To destroy these barriers, you will have to shoot at them with a staff. But the whole difficulty lies in the fact that there are three types of magical barriers: the first is fiery, indicated in red; the second is icy, indicated in blue, and the third is spiritual, which is indicated in purple. Each barrier can only be destroyed by the corresponding element. More precisely, the opposite: fire will deactivate the ice barrier and, accordingly, vice versa, but electric attacks are used against the spiritual barrier. If you are trying to ensure that you don’t miss anything in the game, then we recommend that you do not neglect this advice.
In addition to the fact that you develop characters in the game, you will also have to develop the organization itself - the Inquisition. Complete tasks that will increase the level of your organization and be sure to upgrade special skills/abilities/perks/passives. First of all, we recommend that you level up “Skillful Hands”, more precisely “Deft Hands, Fine Tools”. It is located in a category called "Secrets", in other words "Secrets". This opportunity will allow absolutely all heroes with the Rogue class to open complex locks, behind which you will find very valuable loot!
With a properly grouped team and if they are still at a very high level, then the bulk of the battles in the game should take place without using this tactical pause. But sometimes you will still come across very difficult battles, in which even a second matters a lot. This is where this pause mode comes in handy. When it gets too “hot”, quickly switch to a tactical view and look carefully, think about it and give orders to your players. In general, according to this principle, you will need to move until the very victorious end. It may take longer, but it significantly increases the chances of survival.
First of all, we advise you to visit those locations where it is possible to set up a Camp. In this case, you will definitely not regret your time spent. There are two points worth noting here: the first point is that you can move extremely quickly, which thereby helps you complete secondary tasks; second point - this will come in handy when the battle is at its peak and you don’t have any jars of healing potion left.
Tip eight - Talk to everyone who can talk
Any veteran who plays the toy knows this advice, but if you are encountering their games for the first time, then take this into account. Even though previous games from these developers had smaller sizes in all respects, but here... here you need to talk to absolutely everyone. Communication with any creature of this world will help you understand this world much more and learn more about the relationships between various individuals. In addition to all this, you can also receive a quest. And by the way, your allies will help you tell much more than any other character. Therefore, we recommend that after each significant quest you talk with your comrades. Thus, you will definitely not miss the chance to increase or decrease the reputation of this ally, you will also be able to get a very interesting task or even see an interesting picture - for example, when Cassandra beats Varrick.
As you progress through the game, you will almost constantly come across various mines or plants. Here you just need to not be lazy and collect it all. This will happen quite quickly and the benefits will be considerable. For example, with the help of collected materials you can improve/create equipment. And we will tell you more - resources are necessary to raise your organization! In addition, as a couple, you will also need resources to complete any quest. And in the end - you will simply be drawn in, we assure you.
While you are there chopping up dragons and trying to save the world from disaster by the sweat of your brow, your advisors are eating their backsides in the fortress. Therefore, so that they do not feel like they are in “chocolate,” it is necessary to constantly load them with work. Try to return to your home as often as possible and load them with work. Directions are issued in the meeting room. For example, your agents will be able to collect gold to support your organization, settle political problems, establish very useful agreements, even get equipment for you, but that’s not all, we don’t reveal much to you to make it interesting. Each advisor has its own execution time, so everything can take from a minute to several hours. The counter will move in real time, so we recommend that you give the most complex and lengthy tasks for them. But when you return, the advisor will be ready to provide you with a report.
As the developers themselves claim, it can take as much as 180 hours of play! Therefore, if you don’t like something about the new hero or you did something wrong, then feel free to start playing again. It is best to sacrifice these measly couple of hours in order to finally complete the game to the very end.
In your Inquisition hideout, on the right side of the entrance there is a small shop - here they can sell you a unique item with which you can reset all your hero’s skill points. This way you can redistribute them in a new way! , use this item to radically rebuild an uncomfortable hero, unless of course you really like the skills.
We'll talk about the Inquisition's hideout, because it's just a huge location where large number a variety of interesting subjects/objects/things/characters, etc. After all, the plot of this game is structured in such a way that you can easily skip this Vault and move on to a new location. We recommend that you do not do this, because you still need to carefully study the headquarters, talk with all your comrades, complete a couple of tasks and carefully study the assortment of local artisans.
In addition to the fact that you can launch operations here, in the Vault you can also study a variety of found objects that you were able to find during your travels. For studying them, you will certainly receive bonuses - for example, increased damage against certain enemies. Do not forget about this opportunity, because it is very useful in passing.
At the very beginning of the game, you will meet a dwarf named Varric, who will be armed with only one crossbow. You won't be able to change his weapon, but you can buy various upgrades/improvements for her! Try to remember to do this, because Varrick is no weaker than the rest of your team.
In a location called "Hinterlands", you need to get to the owner of the horses as soon as possible - a plot task. This character will be able to give you a horse, which will make your journey in the game much easier.
Still, it is not recommended to constantly move around on a horse. After all, when traveling on horseback you will not be able to hunt or gather useful resources, especially to carry out another fight. In battle you will find yourself in a rather awkward position. We recommend that you ride in already explored locations. And to travel longer distances, it is best to use the system of local camps, which will instantly transport you to the chosen point.
Soon the game will take you to a place called Val Royeaux - a huge city with a bunch of trading shops! Carefully study the local assortment - here you can find many useful items at quite reasonable prices. And by the way, we recommend that you hold your money until your visit to this city, because in the beginning you can wait until you visit Val Ruaino.
It’s worth noting that, as always, the game fits in just perfectly! One of your main tasks is the development of the Inquisition and the spread of its influence. For this quest, every good deed will benefit you (any completed quest will increase the influence of your Inquisition!).
When you open the quest log, your eyes will immediately catch the story quests, of course, the thought immediately arises of completing them first. We recommend that you do the following: open your map and choose your route to the intended story mission, and on the way to your goal, simply complete additional/side missions. We assure you that you will get great pleasure from the experience.
This is not only one continuous war/battles/skirmishes/battles, tragedies/pain/sadness - this is love too! Choose the one or the one you like the most, set a goal for yourself! After that, find out a little about this character, study her/his character carefully, eventually begin to assent and constantly lean towards her/his side. The romantic lines here are worked out just perfectly, so just enjoy!
