Has there been an update/patch lately? I've crashed around 5-6 times today. Not the freeze that can happen in cut scenes that requires closing the program from the application menu. Now it randomly exists to Origin, no error message or anything, no lag, just closes in less than a second. Its been extremely stable overall, but now it behaves like Skyrim with too many mods.
Been happening to me too, mostly in multiplayer (though that is all I've played the last week or so). Straight out no-warning closing out. Coupled with the fun 'animals not dropping keys if you kill them last' in MP, been a rough patch overall for me, heh.

Just took the mission for the Templars...

Can anyone tell me...

what happens if you make the Templars yield and become part of the inquisition instead of free allies?

Stuff. Various party members react differently. Dialogues change, has effects on the epilogue.

I didn't really mind hinterlands but I just got to skyhold and the last half hour or so leading up to this point has been amazing.

This game is fucking good!

Alright so after all my restarts I'm rolling with a 2 hander reaver. Some insane burst that's for sure.

Question is what is the best tank to go with me? It almost seems like vanguard + 1hd/shield skills give better tanking ability. I went champion (blackwall) and it just seems so many of those abilitys aren't very good compared to the above. Also I was going 2 mages for double cc with the 1st ability in ice and double barriers but Dorian as a necro seems kinda weak. Do you need to micro-manage the KE or can the computer do good work?

Well you are basically invulnerable with 1h/shield so you can just pick whatever the hell you want for your specialization.

Don't get mindblast with arcane warrior in multiplayer, removes all barrier regen from spirit sword essentially making them useless. Why you can't respec in multiplayer is a really stupid choice.

Found that if you use Flask of Fire and then Mark of the Rift it doesn't give it a timer so you can use it endlessly.

If you're a tempest already you can use Thousand Blades.

It's cheesy though, don't do it.

Has anyone been able to do the mexico proxy shit on the Origin site lately? I tried last night, and my payment kept not going through. Tried paying directly with CC and also via paypal. Sucks because it's $40 - 20% with a coupon code right now.

Usually paypal handles this fine but if you do it with a CC then your CC will sometimes be flagged as making a foreign purchase and you just need to call up your CC and say "Hey it's a real purchase." With Chase I get an instant text whenever it happens and I can just reply and unflag it.

If that isn't your issue then you might want to try the slightly alternative instructions where you use the proxy to add it to your cart and then turn off the proxy and refresh the page (so it goes back to English) and finish the transaction through American servers. If neither of those work then maybe they finally fixed the loophole.

Walmart has had DA:I for $40 all last week.

And there was no loophole to get it.

Multiplayer has been somewhat fun, but the crafting to unlock system is beyond dumb. Plus there are so many clueless retards in there it makes me sad. Balance wise, it seems pretty solid, but it is ludicrous how much better an Arcane Warrior is over the other mage types, once you get the points set up. My only bitch is that if you get a Demon commander on the last wave you may as well just lay down and die. The fucker teleports in, AE damages and stunlocks everyone, then Teleports out, then comes back a split second after you recover. Complete bullshit compared to the other end bosses.

My lego tanks it easy enough, with roll to remove status effects and group pot that gives spirit resistance he does like 40 dmg to everyone. Sometimes I just have to taunt him and run him away from the group, while I agree he is the hardest it is doable.

The point remains that you have to have a taunter with an instant recovery move who is smart enough to execute this tactic without fucking it up. So a L8-10 Lego or Templar who knows what to do and a group that won't pull agro off of him and burn down the adds. I am not saying it is impossible, just that the jump in difficulty from the other bosses to that one is ridiculous. Aside from the non dropping key bug, that is the thing that pisses me off the most about MP atm.
