If you level up your companions evenly there seems to not be enough missions to level them all to max level, especially the one with Hardened status. So pick the two companions you want to use in combat and take them to every mission to get the most skill points with them. The other compainions might have a lower approval level but as long as you do their companion and loyality missions you get the best ending for them.
Another tip, if you don’t want to constantly check if your companions have new dialogues look to see if the lanterns above their rooms are lit. If the lanterns are lit there’s new dialogue, if they aren’t then no.
I spent 20+ hours just to realized you HAVE to upgrade faction at their shop... I was thinking it would take ages to level up their store because it keep saying weak and thought I needed to max the exp bar of shop for each level...
Some valuables give you varying reputation. Like a Relic will give you +3 to everyone... Except Veilguard which gives you +15. I wouldn't go crazy with it. Just if you see a themed valuable, like Antivan Coffee (crows), Tome of the dead (Mournwatch), would sell to the ones that make sense.
The ravain Coast is NOT in the first hour of the game! That is totally false! I did not make the coast until around 15 hours in. This is doing all side quests.. also if you had done any side quests or just veered off the main path at all you would have found the wolf statue which the game explains and gives you a skill point in the first hour of the game. These are very basic tips that the game teaches you just for playing. Glad you were able to capitalize off of a mistakes video but the game literally teaches you all of this. Pretty smart move for the clickbait.
@@matthewmays1934 that's honestly not unusual. I've been playing similarly where I've been listening to conversations, doing all the quests, trying to get all the cheats and loot. It's a long ass game and it seems like all killer and no filler. You're always doing something but there's opportunities to just look at the scenery and read codexes etc.
Honestly most I’ve seen is click bait stuff like this that’s self explanatory or it’s vids hate banging it for clicks. Cause we all know social media stuff just loves to do what it takes for likes and views.
@@xgcarcherfan8837 Yes sir! That's why I don't watch reviewers. I do like information videos but not stuff that the game literally tells you lol. I love Dragon Age I am 83 hours in and only on part 10. There is so much to do and it's the biggest action RPG single player story driven game I have ever played. Having a great time with it so far.
Only thing you said I didint agree on is the selling your stuff to any vender all shops that have a faction you should because they all have something you need...
Knew everything but that's not surprising as these sorts of videos barely ever have any actual mistakes in them, it's mostly just stuff the game actively tells you. Still, I love coming to these videos because I get to see the one joke that the people that have too much time on their hands have. "The one mistake is buying/playing the game" Literally, the ONE JOKE they have. It's not even good or clever. Love it. What can you expect though from idiots that constantly comment on stuff they're not interested in because they have nothing better to do.
Yeah. Either i don't understand something or this guy doesnt. You buy duplicates to upgrade rarity AND unlock those secondary stats You upgrade an item in the workshop to upgrade the damage number and class specific numbers (stagger) So you should always buy an upgrade in a shop (or actually buy a dupe).
If you upgrade the caretaker every piece of gear drops at his level. If you have the caretaker at level 5, gear you get is at +5. Thats also the case for gear you buy at other vendors. If you have a chestpiece at +1 and you buy the same in a shop your chestpiece gets up to +5 and the rarity goes up by 1.
This time is you. He meant you should upgrade your workshop before buying new gear. Because if you buy first and then upgrade you need also upgrade your new gear, since upgrading workshop doesn't upgrade gear in your inventory. Of course if you buy piece of gear for better rarity, it doesn't matter.
@@GriffGriffinDragon Age Origins is more traditional RPG, great one I would say. Dragon Age 2 is more corridor one, decent, but worser than 1st one as for me. Dragon Age Inquisition (3rd one), is decent, but I never managed to finish it a single time. Veilguard is more arcade as for me, but still interesting. And all the games have some elements of same sex relations or gender issues.
if your playing on normal diffculty i wouldnt worry too much about gear leveling as the game isnt overly difficult and it doesnt impact that much upgrading the raraty of the item is more important for the perks also if you conplete all side missions which im not sure why you wouldnt as yoyr missing content ..you will hit the rep ranking of all factions without the need to sell anything
Is there a way to tell which faction likes certain objects better in game? Reading an online Excel sheet to figure it out seems daunting and not fun. I'll check if it's a rare item, but if it's a regular doodad I'm just vendoring it hah.

A good tip also could be to check all the merchants because some will send food and drinks that permanently buff stats like +1% dmg
Wait what?
@@tonybryant7823 there's two or three food vendors with permanent buffs in the Treviso market
Yes and they are expensive lol
Should I buy it when I'm stronger? I think 1% at my current level isn't that much
@jesselee9332 not really 😅

Needs a jumpscare warning for your Rook dude omg
😂😂
bros been mewing since before origins.

It's also one of the last places you can fully explore. You don't unlock about half of it until right before the end of the game.
I was sitting here thinking I'm like 25 hours in and haven't made it to ravain lol😅but I like Doing as much as possible

Anti van crows killed me 😂😂😂
5:17 I was not prepared for the glory and majesty of that face. I have seen the face of GOD.
Not even a mother can love that face.

i've been playing this game for a few days and the hugest mistake i made was actually playing it

Bro...your rook! I love the look!
Wow, your Rook was definitely a decision
I keep laughing at your character face lol
your gear upgrade and workshop upgrade is not the same...
Yeah. Either i don't understand something or this guy doesnt.
You buy duplicates to upgrade rarity AND unlock those secondary stats
You upgrade an item in the workshop to upgrade the damage number and class specific numbers (stagger)
So you should always buy an upgrade in a shop (or actually buy a dupe).

Great guide!! I dont see what everyone is annoyed about, I love this game so far especially the non binary stuff
Thanks! I’ve actually never played a dragon age before, are they all like this?

My lucanis is hardend is that a problem
Just means he no longer can use support skills but gains dps increases, Neve is hardened
@Mobz-ly3ic I had to because I wanted to finish the candlestick quest deal
Mine is as well but I use him mainly for dps and neve for support, depends what you’re going for
Also means you can't romance him
Only if it lasts longer than 3 hours I think.
this video is a joke. "do companion quests and rank up your shop"? wow thank you

Please I beat the game surely there's nothing you can tell me that I didn't already know.
Tip 1....FUCK I WISH I KNEW THAT!!
You totally nailed that Lolph Dundgren look.
Anti Van? Mate did you play the game 😂 say it with me "ant-tea-ven"

Rook face wtf lol
Hey guys let me know if there’s anything I missed!
Thanks bro
Omg that face
There are many mistakes people can make while playing this, but the most common one is the most obvious one: they buy it💀
first mistake playing the game.
First mistake was buying the game.
Buying this game was a mistake. Glad to see it's failure in 4k.
I’m sorry but I feel like these tips are only good if you haven’t played the game at all.
The biggest mistake you can avoid is buying the game in the first place
The one mistake would be to buy this.
Good job bro, go find the next video to give views on and comment.
Get a life incel 😭✋
The first mistake is buying the game
Mistake 1: buying it 🥳
The HUGE mistake is to buying it !
#1
Don't buy the game. Alright later.
First mistake is buying this embarrassing trash
Mistake 1. Playing the game
Says someone not playing it
Games not terrible. Not good either.
It softens the blow quite a bit when you're playing it for free 😂
Mistake: 1, buying the game.
Mistake: 2, not waiting for mods to remove rainbow colors.
I've played every dragon age game, and I've had a great time so far playing this one.
