This build is for 2h or 1h sword and shield, this is like the last DA:O series which is Arcane/Blood Magic .

Thought i am having a hard time aggro the mobs to me, normal enemies dmg i took was like 10, my hp is 350 and above. This build works on normal and hard i guess, but nightmare mode, well...it worked but dam elite's always target my ranged party. =(

The most disadvantages thing about this build is that you don't have any spells to play, no skills either.

Or you like to diss spells, force/electric Mage = Sith

Force tree that is really benefit your mage which is enemy cannot interrupt your spell and you won't knockdown everytime an enemy attacks you.
If you got any new build, which is good, please share, thx. I have heard bombing spirit + force spells is a good combo, drag everyone into 1 place and put bombing spirit into them equal instant kill, haven't try it out yet, but will do it soon.

Nice warrior! ah i see about the caster on element resistance, weird there skills description the entire party, i have been deceit! Yea, friendly fire is a problem, my mage don't invest any elemental spells, i invested into lighting skill tree, which done decent dmg and doesn't do friendly fire on my party. On the other hand, investing Aveline with high magic resistance, cannot be flank, immune to crit, cannot be knockdown, i guess she can sustain a lot of friendly-fire if you invest attribute point on to cons and your mage can cast aoe spells without knockdown effect and Aveline bouncing around.

Revenant are still a pain in the butt when they cast aoe blood magic and kills my entire party in a couple of hit, which i have no time to avoid! Except for my tank, I might be wrong about this, maybe it is Arcane Horror, which i hate facing them. First thing i see them, crushing break or whatever skills to cc them, that goes for Desire demon as well,  when they cast something, GG!! However, the most concern are the Assassin Rogue, boy oh boy, once he pop smoke into stealth is equal INVINCIBLE! When they backstab, it is either one hit kill my ranged dps, if they are alive, they will go stealth again and backstab one of your party again.. even i used health potion and cast heal on ranged dps but when everything is on cooldown, all i can do is watch one of my ranged dps died,  the only solution i have is to cast ress spells ! AGH!

Rage demon is okay for me, just kite them and spread my party out.

But who am i to complain about this, it is my fault for playing nightmare mode.

Yea, sometime i hate bringing a Healer, Anders healing kinda sux, i wonder to change my spec to spirit healer while Anders change to vengeance, most of the time i bring Anders is because of all the buff i invested into him. lol I wonder u have trouble agrro'ing the mob into you?

Hmm i did try out new mage build method just now. It is bombing spirit/force mage OMG! Bombing spirit is very OP and dangerous, use force magic to drag everyone in, use snail spells, cast bombing spirit onto normal mobs, command all range dps to focus attack on the bombing spirit enemy, BOOM, 1700 dmg! Whoever near the bombing spirit mobs instants KO except elite mobs. This also means my tank instant KO is because of friendly fire! 

Although this build is really really nice, but dam!!! i have to respec again, bombing spirit is like atomic bomb,  i cannot handle this magnitude of power.

Dam, i want to use blood magic... i have been twinking build for quite long time...

Ah, i see, i always want a 2h warrior in my party but since i am mage, my party is full. Anders, Me, Prince and Aveline.

you think the dwarf guy is the best char for range? cause right now i replace Bianca to the Prince because i got this 104 dps bow which is nice, plus his personal skill consider not bad. For Bianca, i think he shoot fast, but dmg not that much while prince shoot slow but dmg high, sometime prince crit 300-400dmg. I am trying make anders my booster, ending up not enough mana to heal lol. Plus i found out that haste is so good.

why are we stuck with only 4 party members. i remember DA:O ppl actual mod it to 6.

har?? I mean now cant have the full view of the area like DA origin. Enemy where also dunno. Not liek coutner strike first person la but u know what i mean

ya and that too.. but its good to have elemental damage on weapons

seems like physical force doesnt have much use in the game. Knock down enemy cant really change much in battle. I choose wrong class liao

is there any possible way for me to get the last decent gloves if i missed it the first time around? Forbidden knowledge quest cannot be completed as well coz i took the tome's deal. is it a bug or what?

about the tomes, the quest can only be obtained in act 2 right? the map doesnt pin the location of the tomes. have to google

How about high dragon?anders quest?its more tough i think 

Oh. I thought i was the only one having the same problem. The game really feels rushed indeed.

btw,im at lvl 18 rogue..its hard for me to kill that dragon..so need to wait until lvl 22 to fight that dragon? 

i am warrior now i got the fallen helmet and fallen plate. How many items in fallen set? Already finish deep road but i still cannot complete the set plz help

There are differences. Certain subquests are made available such as the one with Harrowmont and the werewolves from Ferelden. And there are the constant references to the King of Ferelden.

It's not much and is quite minimal but it does at least give some sense of continuity from the first game.

woot!! just a driver can increase performance so much? I never update driver b4..

Mine is nvidia 9600mgt can get same result as yours?

Is there any way to make the view for Dragon Age 2 top down instead of 3rd person?

Is there a way to make my main character run a lot faster?

Seem to be wasting time commuting to one end to the other.
