Dragon Age 2

[Tyrath]

Anything thats under junk is for selling.

[Souj]

anything that is automatically put in the trash has no use whatsoever. Not even for quests. Quest items are not kept in your inventory at all.
Just sell it all. Kind of annoying when you think about it. Could just have saved a step and made all the junk items just money instead.

Question about the fade in act 2.... Afterwards, do you only get "apology" dialogue w/those you took into the fade, or do you get it w/ your entire pt?

[TacoTaru]

I think it's only with the people you take into the fade.

[Katlan]

If im trying to rival fenris, it a good idea to take him ? lol

[Souj]

If you're talking about when

Spoiler: show

a team mate betrays you, and after, you have to go to their home and they apologize; It's only those you take in with you, and those who betray you. Not everyone will betray you though. Anders wont, I know. And Varric I think... I do know Aveline, Merill and Fenris will betray you though.
And yes, there are some good opportunities to gain Fenris' rivalry during his apology. Fenris is probably the easiest person to make your rival, especially if you side with the mages a lot.

Isabella betrays you as well, and her dialogue during the scene is rather funny.

[Souj]

Spoiler: show

I remember my rational when taking Fenris... I was like; He hates mages, always yells at everyone who even thinks about making deals with demons. I'll take him! Then I get to that part, He turns on me.
I had a team with all real low hp, and Fenris was basically all STR. He used that ability where he charges forward and swings his sword, hitting everyone in his way. He killed all of my people with that 1 hit... aoe from the demon might have helped him a bit.

I like big boats and I can not lie.

lol. I put her in for that quest, just for that line.

Spoiler: show

I mowed through both of my companions (Isabela/Merrill), but a friend of mine said he had equipped Isabela well enough on his that she would Backstab immediately out of the CS and kill him then proceed to murder the rest of the party lol. Hardest part for me was trying not to rival Merrill since I was trying to romance her jointly with Isabela.

[Krazy]

Yay, I got the Supplier trophy even though I missed 2 ingredients in Act 2 because of Fenris being a tard and not giving me his personal quest. I bought the two I was missing from the Black Emporium and they count apparently.

Is Isabela the only one you can romance while romancing another character? I found that I wasn't able to romance Fenris in Act 2 after his Bitter Pill quest, though by that time I had asked Anders to move in with me. So I've been wondering if dual romances were an out in this game, or if that's just the case once someone's moved in with you.

Deep roads spoiler act 1

Spoiler: show

fucking fuck fuckity fuck fuck they killed Bethany. She was one of my favorite characters.

Spoiler: show

Seriously.. This shit pissed me off.. My custom Hawke made Bethany look like Jlo.. so sad. Got so used to having 2 healers I was fucked for the next few fights.

Hard mode is really the way to go. Makes the combat waaay more satisfying. Yeah I'm too pussy for Nightmare, fuck that shit.

Spoiler: show

Alistair showing up during the Qunari riot got me so hyped..

Also Goad and Armistace Rogue skills are NOT working on consoles.

Both Goad and Armistice rogue abilities do not currently work on Console due to an issue with the targeting mechanic.

Would have for me as well if he had looked the same.. that "melted face" thing he had goin' on ruined it for me :\

[ZarakiKujata]

Uh so in Act3, just did Merill's quest, now Isabela is in my house w/ a new quest marker over her head but no quest, and when I talk to her she just repeats the shit she says in the bar.

Bug or whats up?

[TacoTaru]

I'm sure you've already tried this (and there shouldn't be a quest marker regardless), but did you talk to Dog? Some people visit only to have CS with him.

That's awesome to hear because I was told that didn't work!

And thanks on the fade advice, guess it really doesn't matter who I take.. but I should avoid aveline since I hear she rapes lol

[Souj]

Well, for buying the materials from the Black Emporium, i think he only sells mats from the act you are currently on. So if you r on act 3 and missed something from act 1, you're still sol.
I didn't have much problems with Aveline. Just depends on how well equipped they are and what abilities they have. You can just unequip them completely right before, as well.

The Blight is what happens when an army of Darkspawn come to the surface, led by an Archdemon. It was what was happening in Origins.
There was no Blight in DA2, minus the prologue which happened as Lothering was being attack, so there were not many Darkspawn on the surface.
I'm still confused why you think it's a necessity to include the darkspawn and the blight, when only Origins dealt with both, and Awakening was more about what caused the Blight


and to answer Tyrath, the Blight in Origins was the 5th. Just 2 more remaining.


for DA3, I really hope it takes place in Tevinter Imperium . So much of all the bad stuff that's happened in the DA universe originated there, and some old Tevinter ruins could be pretty great.
Assuming they don't just make 3 dungeons and use them for everything.

Oh I don't know, probably because of the misleading interviews and the beginning that involved a shit load of darkspawn. I couldn't have been the only one who wanted to do more than just Kirkwall quests.
