Dragon age inquisition tests that give. Perks and abilities of the Inquisition in Dragon Age: Inquisition. Take advantage of the tactical pause in difficult battles

Perks in Dragon age: Inquisition appear as the Inquisition develops and its influence increases. You can get this influence at the so-called "Table of War", passing various tasks, defeating enemies, completing missions, etc. Each time the level of influence fills up to the limit, you can increase your level and, accordingly, receive new perks.

Perks of the Inquisition are divided into four types. Three of them are bestowed by three advisors, and the fourth - by the Inquisition itself. The powers bestowed by Cullen allow you to develop strength and endurance. Liliana's Secrets work out the hidden traits and skills of the characters. Josephine's communication perks will aid in diplomacy and persuasion. And finally, the perks of the Inquisition itself develop general abilities.

Note!

Getting perks in Dragon age: inquisition- the process is not so fast as to mindlessly invest in those perks that you will not need. Some perks are available from the very beginning of the game and require an investment of experience points.

Some advanced perks only become available after unlocking lower-tier perks. The perks recommended first are in bold.

Strength perks

Name	Effects and Comments
Criminal knowledge	Unlocks new dialogue options related to criminal activities and gives a + 50% experience bonus for each new open code. A very useful perk that opens up the possibility of alternative passage of some tasks.
Massage method	Gives a 5% bonus to experience for killing monsters. To get the most out of this perk, try to pick it up early in the game.
Rider posture	Reduces the risk of falling off the saddle. Not the most useful perk, as you will spend most of your battles not in the saddle.
Poured into the saddle	Reduces the risk of dropping out of the saddle even more. The comment is the same as for the perk above.
Improved concentration	Improves concentration from 100 to 200 points. May come in handy in battle.
Advanced concentration	Improves concentration from 200 to 300 points. May come in handy in battle.
True gift	Increases the defense of all party members by 10%. A very useful perk for weakly defended characters (for example, mages or thieves), especially on high level difficulties.
More healing potions	Allows you to carry four more healing potions. The perk can be useful on a high difficulty level, since in such a situation, the likelihood of spending all healing potions during one quest is much higher than on the normal difficulty level.
Mages blueprints	You get new blueprints for creating items for magicians. It is better to take it by the end of the game, and even then only if you are concerned about the outfit of your magicians.
Thieves blueprints	You get new blueprints for crafting items for thieves. Better to take by the end of the game, and even then only if you are concerned about the uniforms of your thieves.

Golden hands, good instruments	Allows all thieves in the party to open Master level locks. A useful perk for thorough exploration of the surrounding world and access to chests with a high level of protection.

Master Herbalist	Opens general information on all herbs. You can take this perk if you are going to do alchemy and do not want to waste time on your own searches. A very useful perk, since many herbs of this level are usually very difficult to find.

Attack

The offensive characteristics of your character are listed here.

Attack

The characteristic "attack" increases all the damage inflicted by the character.

1% attack = + 1% to base damage of all types
Damage bonus applied before target armor is deducted
Weapon * (1 + Attack%) - Armor, NOT (Weapon - Armor) * (1 + Attack%)

Note: The damage of different abilities is calculated differently.

Damage Bonus vs Defense

Increases damage against enemies with the "defense" effect.

1% bonus damage against defense = + 1% to all types of damage against the target's defense
The effect stacks multiplicatively with other damage bonuses

Armor penetration

Armor penetration points allow, when dealing damage, to ignore the corresponding number of target's armor points.

1% of armor penetration ignores 1% of the target's armor (taken into account for physical damage)
It cannot be combined with other bonuses, i.e. the bonus will be the same for critical and non-critical hits
The effectiveness of this parameter is slightly inferior to Attack: 1% attack> 2% armor penetration

Damage bonus against barrier

Increases damage against enemies with the "barrier" effect.

1% bonus to damage against the barrier = + 1% to all types of damage against the target's barrier

Critical Damage Bonus

Increases the bonus damage dealt on a critical hit.

Applied before Armor Damage Reduction
The effect stacks multiplicatively with other damage bonuses.

Critical Hit Probability

Critical hit chance when attacking.

The value of this parameter will indicate the percentage of the probability of a critical hit (example: at a 10% probability of a critical hit, 1 out of 10 of your hits (on average) will be critical)
When attacking several targets at once, the critical strike chance is calculated for each hit separately
There is no internal delay for a second critical hit

Primary weapon damage

Damage dealt by the weapon in the main hand on each hit.

Basic hit per normal attack
All other damage modifiers apply to Weapon Damage as their primary base stat.
A more useful metric is a specific hit, rather than DPS (average damage per second), because when calculating the damage of abilities, the impact value is used, not the DPS.
Secondary weapon damage has a similar mechanic.

Secondary Weapon Damage

Secondary weapon damage.

Cm. main weapon damage

Bleeding on hit

Chance on hit to cause the target to bleed. The effect lasts for a few seconds.

V this moment this parameter does not work, we are waiting for it to be fixed

Indicates the% of your maximum health that will be restored after a kill
For this effect to work, it is necessary to personally finish off the target with an attack or ability
There is no internal delay for re-triggering the treatment

Flank Damage Bonus

Percentage bonus to damage when hitting a target from the side or from behind.

1% bonus to damage when attacking from the flank = + 1% to all types of damage when attacking from the flank (with a base 25%, damage to the enemy from the flank will be multiplied by 1.25)

Example: 30% electricity protection will reduce electricity damage taken by 30%

Fire resistance

Percentage of resistance to damage from fire attacks.

The team of Gmbox has prepared a collection of basic tips for the game. Although BioWare quite lucidly reveals the main subtleties of the gameplay of its new project, sometimes the developers do it out of time. We decided in advance to arm you with the most important information so that there are no problems with the conquest of Dragon Age: Inquisition.

Visit Dragon Age Keep first

Unfortunately, you will not be able to transfer saves from past games in the series to Inquisition. However, this does not mean that all the merits have sunk into oblivion - no one is forgotten, nothing is forgotten. The results of decisions made in and can be restored using the Dragon Age Keep service. Did Gray guard from the original DA, which resolved the conflict between elves and werewolves, which side of Hawk took in DA2, and much more - all these parameters can be recreated in Dragon Age Keep. All important decisions in one way or another will be reflected in the world of the game in Dragon Age: Inquisition. In addition, you have a great opportunity to brush up on the main events of the past parts.

Choose your batch carefully

The staffing issue is huge in Dragon Age: Inquisition. Most of the time, you will travel the game world with three companions. It is important to ensure that the party is balanced. There must be a warrior with a shield in it - he must divert the attention of enemies to himself. It is highly desirable to have at least one mage and a robber: the former can support allies or temporarily incapacitate enemies, while the latter deals a lot of damage. The last place can be given to whoever you like best. At the very beginning of Inquisition, you will be given a balanced squad: it will include the "tank" warrior Cassandra, the magician Solas and the robber Varric. Later, the composition of the party can be changed.

Try to develop characters so that their abilities complement those of allies

In the game, you can take up to three magic allies to the Inquisition: Solas, Vivienne and Dorian. You shouldn't develop them according to the same template - for example, invest all skill points in pyromancy. Let each wizard be a master of his school - spirit, lightning, cold, and so on. The same is true for warriors with robbers. Choose your party members and their abilities so as not to repeat themselves. Variety is strength.

Keep three different mage staves

As you explore the world of Inquisition, you will encounter magical barriers - they usually block the path to something interesting. To destroy them, the wizard must attack the barriers with staff shots. The difficulty is that there are three types of magical barriers: fire (red), ice (blue) and spiritual (purple). They receive damage only from attacks of the opposite element: fire deactivates ice and vice versa, and electric attacks will help against the spirit barrier. If you don't want to miss anything, then keep in your inventory three staffs with different elements.

Level up the Skillful Hands perk as soon as possible

In Inquisition, you develop not only characters, but also an entire organization - the Inquisition. By completing quests, you level up and gain access to special perks. We strongly recommend that you be among the first to upgrade Deft Hands, Fine Tools in the Secrets category. This ability allows all rogues to pick complex locks that usually hide valuable loot.

Take advantage of the tactical pause in difficult battles

With a properly formed party and the appropriate level, most battles in Dragon Age: Inquisition can be completed without using a tactical pause. But sometimes there are battles in which one second can turn the tide of the whole battle. In these, the pause mode is critical. When the going gets tough, switch to a tactical look, think, plan, issue instructions to subordinates - and so on until the bitter end. It will take longer, but the chances of success are much higher.

Make camp while traveling

We advise you to start exploring a new location with one important thing - visit the places where you can camp. You will not regret the time spent. Firstly, you can quickly move between them - this will come in handy while completing side quests. Secondly, in the camps you can rest and replenish the supply of health potions. You will remember this when, in the midst of your travels, you suddenly find yourself in a difficult battle and without healing bubbles.

Talk to anyone that knows how to talk

Veterans of BioWare games already know this, but everyone else should also adopt this rule. Inquisition has a myriad of creatures that can keep a conversation going. Communication with them will help you better understand the world of Dragon Age, learn about the relationships between the characters, and also get many quests. This is especially true of your allies - they can tell a lot of interesting things. We recommend that you communicate with all party members after each big task: this way you will not miss the chance to increase (or decrease) the reputation with an ally, receive a task from him or see interesting situations - for example, how Cassandra is furiously beating Varric.

Collect useful resources

You will constantly come across mines with valuable metals and all kinds of plants. Do not be lazy to spend time collecting them: in Inquisition it happens quite quickly, and the benefits are huge. Firstly, with their help you can create new or improve existing equipment. Secondly, resource kits are needed to upgrade the Inquisition. Thirdly, with their help, you can complete some tasks. Fourth ... it's just addictive.

While you slash dragons and save the world by the sweat of your brow, your advisors chill out in the fortress. To get the most out of your time in Dragon Age: Inquisition, you need to keep them busy regularly. Return to base often and give directions in the meeting room. Your agents can raise money to support the Inquisition, resolve political differences, establish useful contacts, procure party equipment, and more. Each advisor takes a certain amount of time to complete the task - from a couple of minutes to several hours. The counter runs in real time, so we recommend giving the most difficult and lengthy tasks before exiting Inquisition. When you return, the advisor will be ready to report.

Dragon Age: Inquisition was released on November 18 for PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One. The game received a review from GmbH.

Will we be able to adjust the AI tactics, as in previous games (so that the character, for example, drinks a potion with less than 25% health remaining)? - @WordsToGold, Twitter

[DANIEL KADING]. Yes. The interface has changed, but in it you can still set the rules for allies: what skills to use, when to drink and when not to drink potions (depending on both the remaining health and the amount of potions), which enemies to attack (you can instruct the fighters defend a specific comrade or attack the target of the squad leader).

Do weapons and armor wear out over time? If so, will it be possible to repair them in the field? - @Wild_Morrigan, Twitter

[DC]. No wear and tear! The merchants of Thedas give their goods a lifetime warranty. A tricky move, if you remember about the hole in the sky and the expected end of the world.

Will abilities have a cooldown? - @FreshRevenge, Twitter, USA

[MARK DARRA]. Yes, the restoration has not gone anywhere. By the way, on consoles, you can bind up to eight abilities to the buttons, which provides rich opportunities.

[DC]. Different abilities have different cooldowns. Sometimes it can be reduced through upgrades and passive abilities. The strongest abilities take a relatively long time to recover. This makes you think about when to apply them. Or combine with other abilities - those that accelerate recovery.

Will there be enemies that kill in one hit? - Michael Lao, Facebook, USA.

[DC]. None of the enemies will have instant-kill abilities ... but if a poorly developed squad at a high level of difficulty enters where it is too early for them to enter, death from one hit will be in the order of things.

Will it be possible to fight with two swords again? - Matthew Orsini, Facebook

[MD]. The warriors will have a choice: either a two-handed weapon, or a sword and shield.

[DC]. Only robbers can fight with two daggers.

I'm not a very good strategist, but I want to improve. Will there be any support functions to help players like me go from simple action to strategic approach? - Hayley Livermore, Facebook

[DC]. Many battles will take place in places where enemies can be seen without drawing attention to themselves. There will be time to assess the tactical capabilities of the terrain: narrow passages for warriors, hideouts for robbers, enemy positions under fire, and so on. Sometimes, when approaching the enemy, allies will themselves notice opportunities and offer one or another tactic.

Will the weapon be transferable, like in Dragon Age: Origins, or hard-coded, like in DA-II? - Jacob Vasilenko, Facebook

[DC]. Bound to the class. But our animators have drawn their own attack options for each set of weapons. For example, a rogue will attack differently with one and two daggers.

Will there be battle mages? - Robert Pennington, Facebook, USA

[MD]. There will be something similar, but more on that later.

Will there be finishing blows like in Dragon Age: Origins (like a nice jump against ogres)? - Kai Chen, Facebook, Germany

[DC]. There won't be such finishing blows, but many offensive abilities will have "good" and "very good" uses. Take Mighty Strike, for example, a powerful top-down strike for warriors with two-handed weapons. It deals great damage and knocks down the enemy. But if the enemy is already lying on the ground, the damage will be three times higher.

Can you describe any new combat skill right now? - @MarkDLentz, Twitter, USA

[DC]. There is such a funny skill - "Escape Plan". It was designed by ability designers John Fuller and Luke Barrett. Only Varric and, under certain circumstances, the Inquisitor have this skill. You put the device on the ground, and if you then get into dangerous place, you can instantly be transferred to this device. If you improve this skill, your initial level of health will be restored, and if you are standing next to the enemy, then "drag" it with you. You can think of many tricks based on this skill: combine it with stealth, place traps and runes next to the mark ...

Health and mana won't regenerate between battles after all? - @starcicles, Twitter, USA

[DC]. Mana and stamina will be restored. Health is not. Therefore, you will have to act carefully. The main method of treatment on the way is potions. There are also some rare abilities that can restore health when skillfully used.

Will there be interclass combos or something similar? - @blanketcocoon, Twitter

[DC]. There will be interclass combinations, with different combinations of Rogue, Mage, and Warrior abilities giving different effects.

Will all allied mages have good healing spells, or will someone be stronger than others in this area? - Josh Rodriguez, Facebook, USA

[MD]. We think more about the tactics of magicians in the context of defensive abilities (like "Barrier"), rather than healing.

Will his "shadow power" give the Inquisitor anything other than the ability to close the gaps? - Dominic Freckelton, Facebook

[DC]. Most of the rifts are defended by powerful demons who have just appeared, who have retained a connection with the Shadow. It will be difficult to fight them, but the Inquisitor will be able to equalize forces, during the battle, getting close to the gap and weakening it. The wave emitted by this will stun and harm demons.

[MIKE LADLOW]. When the Inquisitor learns to control his mark, it will have another, more global application.

How will focus work in the game? - RJ May, Facebook, USA

[DC]. Focus is earned collectively and spent by each character separately. It is added to all members of the squad when any of them deals damage to the enemy. This allows characters with low damage, such as warrior-defenders, to calmly carry out their duties, accumulating concentration. When concentration is sufficient, the ability can be performed based on it. In this case, it will be spent by the character who performs this ability, but not by his allies, so that they can then use their abilities.

[ML]. Concentration helps you think strategically. It may be required to get out of danger. Or perhaps you decide to save it for the difficult fight ahead. Since focus-based abilities aren't used in every fight, they've been made very effective. Used correctly, they can change the entire course of combat.

Will there be quests in the game that unlock new spells and abilities for the characters, or will there be a regular level system? - Kristen Coates, Facebook

[MD]. There is one ...

[ML]. Mark is very careful about this aspect of the game, so I will not reveal the intrigue, but I can say that specializations will have to be earned. You can't get them for free. You will be able to take a look at the abilities of a particular subclass in advance before deciding on your final path. It should be noted that, unlike the previous parts of DA, this game will have more specializations, but you can only choose one. Of course, they enrich the tactical possibilities, but we wanted each specialization to be truly special.
