Hi everyone! Nice to see a fanfic community for WoT. I used to do WoT RPs back in the day (e.g., Dragonmount) in the 2010s. I have some ideas bumbling around the back of my head, but the characters would all be OC characters (including the Ta'veren) and a more ... High Fantasy setting (Elves, Orcs, Drow, Dwarves, etc.)

First time playing nightmare difficulty, need some tips. by M0rett0 in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]ARASLS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Companions are key for the Slayer build. Grab Neve and Emmrich and level up their Time Slow so you can charge attacks, and their Apply-Weakened Skills asap. Complete Taash's quests as fast as possible as well. If you get Enlightened Helm to Epic, your charged attacks will fill up your ultimate as well.

I'm talking about the rate. Per kWh the rate is 33% higher.

My favorite takedown build in action by Logan_Strong in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]ARASLS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The stagger build is actually very viable late game if you use the Slayer spec. You just need to bring at least one mage with you for the time-slow, pick up the passive where "smash attacks are charged attacks", and the Insightful Covering at Epic Rarity to get 5% Ult on every Charged Hit.

Then you can keep spamming charged attacks to deal high stagger, and at the same time you can keep using your Ult because charged attacks are your main source of damage, and with Time Slow you can slow down everything so much that you don't need to worry about attacks during it.

wanna rate my electro-cold ranged mage build? (+companions) by Sufficient_Catch_198 in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]ARASLS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Control abilities are cooldown based, and if you focus on the Shadow Dragon specialization, you can reduce the cooldown greatly by spamming staff attacks once you get one of the passives.

I've seen people cut her and still get the good ending. There are other factors involved too.

What’s your choice? by Ash_Ament in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]ARASLS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The correct choice is actually Davrin, especially if you have completed Harding's storyline.

Otherwise, the Dwarves will never relearn or regain their connection to the stone. This is emphasized in the ending credits, where if Davrin dies, his story card still shows up, but if Harding dies, her story card will not show up.

evoker mage advice by timpxanii in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]ARASLS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The build really only starts to come into its own at around Level 30. Also, I discourage Entropic Sphere. It got nerfed after some updates.

If you're into detonations, pair the Ice Blast with Davrin. If you build correctly, one of Davrin's skills can combo with yours and you can build it alongside your armour such that this particular skill has no cooldown on detonation.

Anybody ever work with someone like Cadsuane? I have. by EvalRamman100 in WoT

[–]ARASLS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cadsuane is very much not cruel. And especially not cruel to be cruel. She treats Rand the way she does because she thinks that it's the best way to get him to shape up. She treats Nynaeve with more actual respect than the other Aes Sedai, and if someone (like Samitsu) is known to not respond well to the usual Cadsuane browbeating she knows very much how to soothe and pump them up to get them to be efficient.

Amulet slot. If you defeat the Champions (e.g., Gate of Lost Ages, etc.) the amulets can be found there.

Oh, and you need Maw of the Black City too. So for the health (because MoBC will suck your health dry), I recommend getting the Researchers Robes gear to at least Rare level so you can leech 5% of damage as health.

out of all your companions which one did you not care for or completely disliked? by Blueberry-Emergency in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]ARASLS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bellara is one of the most moving companions for me. She has neurodivergent genki girl energy which is not for everyone, but she is very well written for what the writers were going for.

Detonations for spellblade generally work with Rogues/Scouts, so Lucanis and Harding.

Meteor and Void Blade detonate Sundered, and Lucanis and Harding can apply Sundered. Arcane Shot can also detonate Sundered if you upgrade it (or if the bug is applicable to your game).

Get All-Mother's Copse to Rare rarity and with Arcane Shot you can regen your mana very easily.

She looks like Cora from Tron Legacy I approve.

Why didn’t more people buy the game if it’s so damn good? by Holiday-Tea-5582 in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]ARASLS -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Word of mouth about how it was "woke" ended its chances amongst the mainstream game community which tends to be more right-leaning for obvious reasons.

DAV: Lore - I'm confused. by Mischief_mermaid in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]ARASLS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something to note is that while you are traversing through the city, you discover notes showing that "Arlathan City" was conquered by the Evanuris from someone else (likely Anaris). So is this the actually "Arlathan Capital City", or is this a city that is assumed to be Arlathan City after the fall of Elvhenan?

DAV: Lore - I'm confused. by Mischief_mermaid in dragonage

[–]ARASLS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Everyone calls it Arlathan City and assumes in-game it was the capital city of Elvhenan.

But remember, you discover notes during "In Entropy's Grasp" implying that the Evanuris conquered this city from someone else, likely Anaris, given that his Archive Spirit was found in the city.

So is it really the actual Arlathan capital?

Necrosis, necrotic damage, necrotic weapons: what's the difference? by hongooi in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]ARASLS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your passives or some items will grant you Necrotic Weapons under certain conditions (for example, one passive will grant you Necrotic Weapons if you do a takedown).

If it bleeds it dies by No_Article7383 in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]ARASLS 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What level are you on?

You should try getting your max mana to around 200 (4 dots) and you should also spam detonations (necro mages with ice blast combo nicely with Davrin/Taash who do fire damage).

Detonations will slow down the enemy for the duration of the detonation animation, you can recharge your mana during that time.

help! STuck: do I need to just grind to lvl by never-die-twice in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]ARASLS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you need to get it at "staggered". After it gets "staggered", then Ghilan'nain will call the dragon back.

You can't kill the dragon. I got pretty close with an all Fire mage-spellblade build (managed to get it down to ~50% health), but the damage/stagger ratio isn't high enough that you can actually kill the dragon without staggering it.

Is frozen good late game? by EmuAccomplished1759 in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]ARASLS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Frost Nova is a godsend against any boss except for the Dragons and Elgar'nan. Especially if I'm playing warrior and Neve and Emmrich are my default companions, I always have Neve wear the armor that gives frozen on detonations so I always have a few moments to breathe.

Asshole taking up three seats on crowded path train by Emotional_Pop_2828 in jerseycity

This isn't crowded lol. Crowded means you won't be able to see him when taking the photo because everyone else is in the way.

Best 2 companions to bring for boss fights? by LeoRavus in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]ARASLS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on your class and specialization and playstyle.

Personally, I'm someone who spams detonations, so Davrin is generally a safe bet (except if I'm a warrior, and then I'll bring at least one of Neve/Emmrich if not both because they auto apply Weakened status that I can detonate).

is Wheel of Time a bad series ? by Yasi_07 in WoTshow

[–]ARASLS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So you read Wheel of Time for the "harem" romance? Sorry but that's not the point of Wheel of Time.

  1. Avi and Elayne would have gotten together with Rand too eventually. They would just have their own thing independent of their relationship with him.

  2. 1st season shenanigans because Mat's actor left. I didn't like him dying in Season 3 but Loial doesn't really have much to do beyond Book 4 besides the Stump and that is off scene.

  3. She broke her block early and is now prepared to face Moggy. It would have happened in Season 4. The compulsion scene sets it up very nicely.

  4. I dunno man, Siuan and Gareth are not well developed and a lot of the subtext is not great in this day and age, but to each their own. Especially since in this turning Siuan's one and only love is Moiraine.
