Just bought Dragon Age 2 on PC and wondering what your preferences are on character class and build?

AFAIK you play one character in DA2, and not different races and things. You play Hawke and that's it. Still, I prefer for warriors a Weapon and Shield setup, whilst for rogues I do a Dual Weapon setup.

In Dragon Age: Origins I had Warrior: Weapon and Shield as well as a Two Handed Weapon setup, but that was just too slow. With the Rogue I tried the Archery thing, but it was too boring for me. Switched back to Dual Weapon soon, and this combined with the Assassin and Bard speciality makes me almost invulnerable! :D

EDIT: Oh OK. Nah, I still prefer Warrior or Rogue. I like the hands-on approach, and mages just don't have that. No crit, no backstabs, no bloody mess. Well, maybe if I tried as Arcane Warrior... Hey, thanks for the idea!

Still, Warrior with Weapon and Shield build maxed out is imba, cannot be knocked down, does major damage and has a crapload of stuns available to use. Just get your stats right... :DJust bought Dragon Age 2 on PC and wondering what your preferences are on character class and build?
In DA2 mages have been dumbed down, so to speak :) coz in DA:O, mages had massive AoE spells and some very heavy nukes, but theyre somewhat weaker this time around. BUT theyre still fun to play and sport some very nice spells and animations!



As far as Warriors n rogues go... warriors are most fun to play in onehanded weapons as damage dealers. go for Reaver specialization for some fun moments wid the bosses!!

Rogues are by far the most fun as they can literally obliterate opponents in a single strike!!! coupled with a strong supporting team, you'll be a force to reckon with even in higher difficultiesJust bought Dragon Age 2 on PC and wondering what your preferences are on character class and build?
quick advise: when you get to a new town, and see a big guy in a cage? he is AWESOME and he is a good guy that you will certainly want on your team right away! I was an Elf, the vengeful ones that lived in the forests. Her name was Ecinah



have fun :)Just bought Dragon Age 2 on PC and wondering what your preferences are on character class and build?
Mage all the way, once you hit level 7 you get god powers, literally
