I've been trying to cycle out my parties so despite playing Iseult 2.0, I've been running with Sera and Viv more and trying to avoid my original Dorian/Varric/Cole party from last time. (Solas is a permanent fixture, so only two rotate)

She spent a decent amount of time with Bull too though

And then I was thinking today about a Dorianmancer who is (likely) a qunari warrior but also. Orlesian potentially. I'd need to look more into Orlais before I make that call but maybe he's more human looking... a chevalier, maybe...

Various worldstates/connections. Danika (Dwarven rogue) I'm thinking might off-script have some unnameable relationship with Cole and either romance Sera or Josie. She's a hard-core Andrastian surfacer and fully believes the Herald thing even after it's debunked by Justiana.

I don't think I have it in me to do a bunch of additional runs of DAI after this one (at least for a while) and I'm kind of kicking myself for not trying Josie's romance on this file since it isn't ~canon~ anyway but I've put too many hours in since lock-in to backtrack now but I'm thinking about

Fun fact I've been playing Pigeon on and off in an already established DAV file just to play around with her in the cc but I might run Neve's romance while I'm at it. They would be ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ‘Œ

The fireworks one is one of the worst quests in the whole game (up there with the haunted mansion for me) so you're definitely not missing much!

Okay I keep thinking about the Avvar and their relation to spirits/possession and I feel like. After Pigeon disbands the Inquisition she goes and spends some time among the clan at Stone Bear hold. Just falls off the map for a bit while her agents continue tracking Solas down.

Officially chose Artificer for Rogue Ise, it feels like the sensible choice for an archer, especially because I take full advantage of leaping shot as is, and I hear the upgrade is OVERKILL

And now it stopped letting me!! Booo let me flirt with her!!

Also realized I did NOT take full advantage of flirting with Harding at every opportunity last time bc I've already heard some lines I don't remember. (Or else I just forgot, which is not out of the realm of possibility)

Also trying to avoid using the ones I used most frequently on my Canon save (so Dorian Varric and Cole) save Solas who is always there. So Rogue Ise is mostly pal-ing around with Sera, and Cass when I need a warrior, tho I did want to make a point of using Blackwall more, and Viv when I want 2 mages

19.06.2025 19:46 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I really like getting to know Sera more even if having her in my party as an archer rogue feels redundant. Then again I did often walk around with Solas *and* Dorian with Pigeon. At least I got to divvy up their elements, though.

This party I'm fighting not to do Oops all Rogues.

19.06.2025 19:43 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Assassin doesn't appeal to her even if it does scratch the hunter in her brain. Tempest appeals to ME, both because Pigeon was a tempest/lightning mage and because the effects seem fun, but Artificer seems like the most sensible path forward for an archer rogue. Mb I'll make a split save & try both
