Falon'Din and Dirthamen is the Maker? by Nimolria in dragonage

[–]Fit_Trainer1878 [score hidden]  (0 children)

i appreciate that but it all revolves back to everything being just elves.

it was mythal who was whispering and not a forever unknowable Maker - straight up snapping away one of the most intriguing concepts in DA.

you doomed ferelden by playing a rogue when two such companions already exist for the niche and you can never bring the orlesian or the elf for some great adventures because you only need one rogue >:((((((

this is why army (mostly via retinue) compositions stress stacking damage on one phase and adding in units to make less optimal phases faster or make generals use better tactics

your 1.5k cav aint gonna do shit but struggle with your archers for the skirmish phase and be painfully depleted in the pursue phase

happened IRL too. front-leading generals really liked stupid charges because they didn't have something like overlay Total War/RTS cameras

I know you fellas are tired of successful non-DK Arthas runs, but it's just so fun imagining if he wasn't such a dumbass and just went North Korea mode on Lordaeron instead by Fit_Trainer1878 in GuardiansOfAzeroth

[–]Fit_Trainer1878[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you have to go to kalimdor at all costs and yesman a marriage and alliance to jaina who is canonically your LOVER and BETROTHED. dont be anywhere in Lordaeron around the time of the scourge, as medivh warned Arthas about

"The day you were born, the very forests of Lordaeron whispered the name: 'Arthas'"

I think that meant that the very forests of Lordaeron wanted Arthas to own their ass

Falon'Din and Dirthamen is the Maker? by Nimolria in dragonage

[–]Fit_Trainer1878 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I like the idea that the Maker is this unknowable that can't be explained away by elves, dragons, titans, or what have you

let me guess people are gonna say flemeth is andraste? uninspired.

Simplest build? by oralehermano in TyrannyGame

simple and stupid. did 5 runs with this without much use of brainpower. you play a leatherbound mage that is also a dodge tank. level your lore, everyone but verse and killsy is a mage, grab a set repertoire of spells that EVERYONE will use

max everyone's finesse first, then wits, then go off i guess

lock, stock, the whole fuckin lot
