since they have not said undeniably that the answer is no. Now, if I were to speculate, I would think that the answer would be that, yes, there is a way to gain immortality, add XP, gift yourself gold, etc. In other words, rather than a definitive no, it seems that it is a possible maybe. She has said that the information about cheat commands for the console has not yet been released even to the help desk, so it is inconclusive as to whether such commands exist.

This is what makes mages a popular class, as they are the masters of crowd control with spells like Pull of the Abyss and Ice Wall. Last but not least, the player will want to maintain crowd control.

Secondly, Nightmare mode players will want to read up on possible combos that their abilities can do. The Jar of Bees potion is a great asset to combat. That way, you will have 12 healing potions at your disposal instead of just eight.īefore battles, go to Inquisition camps to constantly restock potions. The very first perk you want to get is More Healing Potions which can be found under the Forces tab. In Nightmare mode, you want to use a ton of potions. Outside tactics and behaviors, there are a couple things to keep in mind.įirst of all, potions are a big deal. While the AI's are pretty smart, you will still want to sometimes move the mages out of melee range. Outside of these settings, the player should be prepared to sometimes micromanage during combat. Also, you will want to disable abilities that just are not useful Instead, they will not use them and you can decide manually when they are used in battle when you take control of that character. This will make is so your companions do not automatically set off huge abilities with slow cool-down times. Set certain abilities to disabled: Like setting some abilities to preferred, there will also be abilities you will want to disable. A good example of this is to have all the tank's taunt abilities, such as Challenge or War Cry, set to preferred so that they are casting it often enough to keep damage off of other party members.
These are abilities that you want your companions to use whenever they can. Set certain abilities to preferred: Set important abilities to preferred. This will make it easier for the tank to draw aggro and prevent the DPS from taking damage. This means that in fights, all of your fighters will stay close to the tank. Targeting Behavior: A popular trick is to set all of the DPS characters, such as rogues and mages, to follow the tank character. In Inquisition, you can set the mana and stamina reserve up higher so that you can pop more abilities that require a lot of mana and stamina. So when you switch control to that character, they can always have a certain mount of mana or stamina ready for you yourself to pop abilities. Mana/Stamina Reserve: This setting determines how much mana or stamina a character's AI will keep in reserve while fighting.
There are definitely certain settings Nightmare playthroughs should utilize. Dragon Age games have always given the player options for the tactics and behaviors of their companions on the battlefield.
