Got this a week or so ago and yeah this game's pretty loving rad. Looks incredibly wonky and loose in so many ways and yet after 100 levels I still want to keep playing.

I'm wondering though how the christ do people get these huge amount of rift crystals? In all the hours I've played I've only amassed somewhere around 12k, is it just a lot of lending your pawn out to people and having them rate it and poo poo like that?

That's pretty much it, if you have a DD save imported into DA you start with a 100k bonus. You can find RC crystals of up to 10k value (very rare) in BBI as loot from chests and enemies. The pawn guild badge quests also award you RC and since you don't lose them you can just pop them into your inventory in NG+ and get the rewards again.

Mostly RC comes from rentals though, the first time you get 1m+ RC from rentals is a sweet, sweet thing.

How the gently caress did you amass 100 levels in a week?

Just did a bunch of offline Ur-dragon farming, haven't even touched BBI yet.

What do I need to do to make sure I don't get locked out of the Selene quests again? It's been such a long time, I can't remember. If it's just do her escort quest then I'm sorted.

I've been trying to drag the main quest out a bit, I'm only on the first stage of the wyrm hunt quests and I'm nearly level 40 (I've been neglecting the game lately, curse you 90s RPGs stealing all my time.)

Ohhh you mean where she gets lost in the woods and you meet Selene? Yeah I did that aaages ago.

Do the quest with Quina before leaving for Gran Soren (the cutoff point might actually be later but I don't remember) and do Witch Hunt when you first hear about it.

That's it. Escort quests don't interact with non-noticeboard quests at all.

Yep, I missed out on Selene's later questline because I ignored Quina right at the start. A shame, since the second part of the Witchwood seems to have a lot of useful ingredients etc.

Blood in, blood out.



Any advice for killing the dragons in BBI? Particularly when there's two of them at once. The only thing that I've found works at all is being a dagger class with adhesion, jumping on their torso, and trying to maneuver to their heart for hundred kisses spam in a really awkward and frustrating way, hoping I don't get hosed before I can kill them. This works really well when the controls and camera don't spaz out too much, and I don't get hit by a meteor or something. They die quite quickly and the one I'm attacking gets stunlocked the whole time, even if it's one of the durable fire ones.

Anything else, though? Ugh. Pawns are 100% useless and do literally nothing. Doesn't feel like I can do much on my sorc, since the charge shot doesn't go for their heart and against a lot of them there's no time to stand still and cast spells (which aren't effective anyways, unless I get an incredibly well placed maelstrom). My magick archer has similar issues, where my shots won't go for their heart and unlike my assassin I'm not completely specced out for dagger stab climbing with gloves of might, adhesion, opportunism, arm strength, very high stamina, and fully upgraded versions of the best daggers in the game.
