Dragon age inquisition best gear mods#

A rift mage who knows the fire tree can easily setup kills and get kills. The rift mage tree gives you 2 attacks that weaken and immobilize, the other two powers have high damage. That pulling attack mixed with the AOE damage of spells will kill or seriously hurt 3 to over 5 people at once.

A rift mage is very good, but it's about crowd control. I usually have a warrior, rogue, and two mages at all times. I do agree about the rogue drops i have some crazy rogue gear as Yeah, the passives matter a lot. Now my mage isn't the lead in my party because i know i am a support dps with casandra and blackwall up front and me and dorain in back i have no problem killing anything. The one thing that has bugged me a bit is that best set of robes i have gotten off the last dragon are elf only and i am a human, i was so stoke when i got the schematic and so pissed when i went to craft myself new gear and saw they were bound to a elf. I also have killed all ten dragons to get the highest quality mats for crafting but before that i was mat framing so i would always be able to craft better gear. If you spec'd a spirit mage well thats just a 100% support class and you are there to babysit. If you have done your specialization quest and are doing all zone side quests and searching for vendors you should have found or got the reward for the masterworks witches enchantment staff as well the blade and grip schematics.

I am also 80+ hours in and just doing the bell of the ball quest and i couldn't disagree more, my necro-mage (i wish i would have went knight) has a staff that does a base dps of 144 with mods and enchantments it is up to 175 dps. 80 hours of playing a mage and I feel like I spent most of time being a baby sitter to health then actually being the inquisitor and kicking ass.Д®DIT: I am a dirty, dirty nug loving liar! I'm just bitter about this whole playthrough. Which I didn't go with, because the class looked weak to me overall. Unless you have to be a knight enchanter. I just want to be the one doing most of the heavy lifting. And me freezing enemies for him he just plows through everything. He has two daggers that do 322 per attack (one does 50 extra to living and the other does 50 extra to beasts). I have found so many daggers that do 300+ damage per attack. Like they expect everyone to play as a rouge. I can't even imagine how useless a mage is on nightmare.ДЄlso all the best gear in the game is for rouges. It would be nice if a mage could have a decent normal attack.

But you are constantly playing the waiting game for your mana to restore. Unless there is another schematic much later in the game I haven't found yet, this is all pretty lame in my opinion.ДЄnd yes, the spells can be crazy powerful. And ya, you can craft 6 of them and constantly swap them, but I wont remember do that every time I leave an area. And so you only get the bonus in specific areas of the map. And if you add one of the masterclass runes you can do 50+ extra damage to either a demon, a dragon, the living or the corrupted. Now granted you do like 3 strikes in just over a second, and if something is weaker to fire you do like 120ish per attack. 78 per attack on something that has 0% fire resistance. Even if you use the 40% master crafting bonus the best you can get out of it is 78 fire damage using the dragon materials. That is the best I have found in 80 hours. The best I have found is a schematic to make the First Enchanter Staff. And my attacks are mostly worthless because all the staffs I have found/been able to make, are completely worthless. The only time I can do major damage is if someone is weak to my element. I don't feel like a powerhouse or a badass at all. I basically spend most of my time baby sitting and setting up combos and making sure everyone isn't dying/doing what they should be. I don't do even close to half the amount of damage anyone else in my party can do. But in this game, playing as a mage I feel completely useless.
