I think its sole purpose is for people to ask this sort of questions.
Silverite is only t3 tho.

That much? Really...
You can probably get to that point in just a few hours if you play on casual/normal I bet and ignore the sidequest obviously.
Not that I mind. I'm playing on nightmare and I am exploring everything I can since I need the extra experience.
lol works for me. I kinda hope its something that'll pop up in an expansion, odd out of place stuff (even in a fantasy world) always makes me stop.

It's a subversion of the main plot trope for RPGs.

Me too. I only have two story missions left and I still haven't been to Emerald Graves, Hissing Wastes, or Forbidden Oasis.

Leave as soon as you get enough power to trigger the next story mission on the war table.
Restarted the game cause I switched from the PS4 version over to the PC version and I was wondering, are the schematics that merchants offer random? Been looking for a hunter mail schematic for a bit, not a big fan of how the sturdy scout stuff looks.
You mean graphics and such or gameplay? I have both versions and, visually, I don't see too much of a difference outside of AA and frame rate on high settings, gameplay's the same though, especially if you use a controller.

So the Iron Bull is played by... Freddie Prince Jr.?
That's... unexpected.

Bullshit.
It is true, he voiced Vega in ME3 as well.
Sorry, I should have been clearer - I mainly meant from a gameplay and controls perspective. I seem to remember DA:O being quite different on PS3 from the PC version since it needed to be adapted for use with a controller.

Is there a way to tell how many missions you've got left and once you complete the story missions can you still continue to explore more places?
For early game, the schematics from Redcliffe and Val Royeux is usually enough for me since I have the pre-order dlc with the flames armour.
I don't think they're random though.

I think it's one of the ancient Avarr statues erected to try and scare darkspawn away in one of the old Blights - which didn't work very well.
I'm level 17 and just started going through the Exalted Plains. I'm way too high level for this, but I just can't leave it all undiscovered.
How on earth did I get so much ahead?
I just finished up on
because I was level 16 and that was the upper recommended level for it.

Wait what? Josie doesn't have a sex scene?! What nonsense is this?! I only romanced her because out of the terrible options given, she was slightly more attractive.
I'm dumping her ass and getting with Cass, even if she does have a square face. My Inquisitor needs sexytime after all his hard work inquisiting, dammit!

Requisitions but nobody cares about those.

Soo I am early on, just hit level 5, haven't done much but some misc stuff in the hinterlands, went back to the Wareoom and selected a mission to rescue some soldiers in "The Fallow Mire" from some Avvar.
I am absolutely getting my ass handed to me when I activate these pillars.. Is this a mission I should be leaving and coming back to? Or running through all at once? Is the Mire an overworld or just part of this mission? Confused.

The Fallow Mire is just an explorable area. There's nothing there but optional stuff.
Best area so far to me though.
think iv'e done everythign there. One landmark short though, even though i have uncovered the whole map.

I think the undead around the Fallow Mire are level 12 (you can check the enemies' levels by activating tactical camera and selecting them) so you're way over your head.
The Fallow Mire is one of the zones the game is divided into, there are some big like the Hinterlands and some smaller like the Mire, you unlock them using power and you can explore them, they all have a 'main' quest in them but they are not mandatory to progress the overarching story of the game. Atop of your journal there is a section named 'Inquisitor's Path', follow these if you want to progress with the story.

Thanks all. Left there to return later. Back in the Hinterlands.
Where can I find a damned logging stand at?

Yeah return when you are around Level 10-11 and it is more doable. I went at level 6 and got owned too.

Also just upgraded to the Delux Edition on PSN and selected the stuff on the war map. Where to I collect rewards?

EDIT: nvm
Ha I just did that mission at level 10. I think I am doing shiz way out of order. Thank god I brought Blackwall for the boss or I would have been screwed. Took me like 40 mins to finally defeat.

They are about, I believe there is a perk that you can get to display them on the map.
Did you get the one in Haven? When you get that requisition in Haven I believe you can select it as your active quest and it will point you in the direction of the one there.
Otherwise I just sort of stumble upon them as I do not have that perk yet.
started getting into the game yesterday...a couple questions:
Are stat points distributed automatically? I can't seem to find a way to do them myself at lvl 3.
Can i not run around without any pants on? I didn't even make a female character this time but i'm still game for a guy with a mustache running around fighting demons without pants.
Action seems a little too fast and clunky right now though, the camera gets too wonky when doing the tactical control.

Huh. Where is that located? I'm assuming you get a quest for it?

Goddamnit Bioware you did it again...who in their right mind thought that putting a dungeon within a dungeon was a good idea? I would've rather had the adamant lengthened rather than have to deal with another
. I'm very well aware that this is colored by my own opinion and experience of the Fade in DA:O (so obviously your own mileage may vary). But come on...I mean there was a mod to completely bypass this shit in Origins.
long, tedious and boring ass romp through the Fade AGAIN...

I must be one of the few who enjoyed
The Fade
the siege of Adamant
I think it just leads to some basic loot (some amulets, armor, etc.) maybe a codex entry or two, and it allows you to unlock a shortcut gate, but I don't remember the rewards being amazing. It's one of the more annoying puzzles because I couldn't figure out how to reset it once I messed up.
I think it's the north-east corner of the map; the entrance is a huge statue of a dead hand (it's also a landmark, I think). There's probably a small side-quest line related to finishing it.

Yea...what a pain. I have only gotten 3/4 done. Can't figure out the last one
