Dragon Age fun fact:

we all know there's tones of cheese across all 4 games, but did you know that even DAI multiplayer map had cheese too!? 🧀🤣

does anyone know where in the dai game files the multiplayer ability trees are defined? they're not like the singleplayer trees (which use the 'bwabilitytree' file type), and the abilities arent referenced by any files that have been useful for actually tracking the trees down

The Multi Player Characters Deserved Better; Ideas On How To Use Them In The Story

So if you’ve ever played DAI you might have noticed a multiplayer button along with in game characters standing around Cullen’s office, A man with a cool hat and bow n arrow in the opening level of the game, a skywatcher within the Fallow Mire and Zither flirting with Maryden.

All of that is what I think most people have seen of the multi player characters due to how poorly done multi player was done, at the very least I don’t see a lot of love for the multi player characters, like even when asked about which one someone likes the most Zither is normally the only one that is mentioned by name.

But I’ve looked into the characters a lot more than honestly helpful due to writing a fic with them in it, so it got me thinking of how they could have better been used, today I’ll go over how the characters could have been used in the main game and some other time I’ll think of ways the multi player could have been better.

Amund

Honestly it would’ve been cool to have him hang around the player in the Fallow Mire and give context about the avver and the place, but other than that I’m not sure.

Argent 

She could’ve been the assassin trainer and given options to ask her about herself.

Belinda Darrow

I think that perhaps if you side with the templars she could be sent along with the nobles to help work things out and be someone other than Cullen to give context on the templars.

Cillian

He could’ve been the Knight Enchanter trainer! He’s spend years learning how to do it and yet he doesn’t get to show that off within the main game

Hall

I honestly am not sure but like something, c’mon he’s like the only human we know of to have lived with the dalish and probs has an interesting pov on that stuff!

Hissera 

During Bull’s questline could be when she joins the Inquisition and we see that (like Gatt handing her off to Cullen or something) or have Gatt talk about how the qunnari gave the Inquisition a sheabas.

Katari

Again like Hall I’m not as sure, but I think he’d be someone interesting for Iron Bull to speak to about leaving the qunnari

Korbin

He could’ve been an agent that came along for The Descent as he is a part of  Legion of the Dead

Luka

She could have been the Alchemist trainer! C’mon she is a very fun character and would’ve been great to meet

Neria

Maybe when going though the evlen temples she could be there to give info on it since she knows a lot about dalish stuff, and this game really needed to give more to voice to the elfish elfs (esp in the questline with Morgan)

Pala

I’m not fully sure about she could fit somewhere in The Descent storyline.

Rion

Like how I think the templars could have had another voice I think Rion could have been a good extra voice to give to the mages and why they should be free.

Sidony

Like others I think she could have been a trainer, I also think she should hang out in the library since she talks about going there and be able to be talked to.

Tamar

ofc she could have been a trainer but also... I think she should have been a companion. We don’t have any truly anti chantey companions nor any voice for the people of heaven whom were kicked out of their homes because the modern chantey felt it had more claim to their homes than they did. Like ofc the people of heaven did screwed up things but they didn’t deserve to be kicked out of their homes and then treated like criminals for trying to get said home back. Tamer also starts off slimier to the pc with being a arrested and having to help to get her freedom back.

If I got to pick a multiplayer character to be a companion I’d pick her due to what sort of pov she would bring to the story.

Thornton

I think he could have been used more for the voice of the normal members of the Inquisition's army, like just add talking to him near Cullen’s office to get some idea on how the army is doing & I’d be happier.

Zither

Honestly no clue on how to add more of him without it getting old but I do think that since he is involved in Cole’s story that they interact, at least once, before tresspasser (same goes for Krem & Maryden, for real why the fuck is Cole’s tresspasser story more about people he doesn’t talk to in the main game than him or at least his relationship with peeps like Varric or Solas)

Ser Barris and Ser Darrow take today’s OTPtober prompt very seriously.

Dragon Age Inquisition Multiplayer

"So when we get back does anyone fancy a drink at the tavern? That’s what friends do, right?"

Dragon Age Inquisition Multiplayer!!

Anybody still play this? I’ll be playing the main game more in the next few weeks and would love to have partners in MP! Message me if you wanna coordinate times - I’m unavailable during normal working hours Pacific time, but have time in the evenings! 

P.S. I don’t use a mic (just the preset buttons for communication) but we can coordinate via tumblr chat if needed!

[tearsofwinter]

I got a question. In DAI multiplayer, if you upgrade a skill, does the upgrade replace the old one?

For example, for Zither’s skill “Battle of the bands”, it increases your allies attack ability by 20%. The upgrade is “slow dancing” that reduces the movement speed of enemies. Do the two skills work together in tandem, or does “slow dancing” supersede “battle of the bands”?

I’m just going to tag ppl I know that play multiplayer, but if you know the answer, please feel free to answer!
