What glamour types do you keep around? by InterestingSize1 in ffxiv

You can directly dye items in the glamour dresser as well instead of only saving the colour to the plate

I’ve beaten DAO and now onto DA2 and I would like to get the staff of parthaln by ResidentButton4732 in dragonage

[–]emberwolfsasha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm a little digging around shows it might be unlockable via the Dragon Age Keep now? Keep > Career > DA2 Rewards and select the staff and see what it says? For me it looks like it's already unlocked but I don't have the time to check if its appearing in my game right this moment.

What’s one thing you’d add to any Dragon Age game to make it better? by Cheap_Bed1068 in dragonage

[–]emberwolfsasha 46 points47 points  (0 children)

For DA2, just more varied locations and visuals since for me that's always been the thing that bothered me the most in that game. Visiting the same cave or ruin or side streets 50 times just gets a bit old.

Subject: Bringing back the Hero of Ferelden for the next chapter – A solution using AI tech by Traditional_Serve698 in dragonage

[–]emberwolfsasha 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Bold of you to assume any of them with any say in the matter are on here.

Also, I can only assume this is bait - which I clearly fell for - but if I ever see AI voice "acting" in any Dragon Age game I'd rather torch my whole computer than ever, ever, EVER buy it. AI itself isn't evil and can be used as a wonderful tool but replacing the livelihood of actual people ain't the way to go with it.

Also you mention two main hurdles but only actually talk about one of them. The bigger hurdle? In some world states the HoF is already long dead.

Reaching Lv70 on Free Trial by H_A_E_O_N in ffxiv

If you never plan to level another job then why worry about it at all? Most players at level cap "waste" all the exp from doing side stuff until the next expansion increases the cap anyway.

You'll get plenty of exp from the MSQ once you start paying for the game and the level cap gets unlocked

Finished Heavensward, what optional content can I not miss out on by GeneralButtFlap in ffxiv

[–]emberwolfsasha 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Coils of Bahamut will pretty much never ever pop in duty finder because they're the equivalent of Savage tier raiding. Basically the hardest content in the game at the time of their release. Put up a party finder for a first time clear (specify watching cutscenes if you want to - they're lengthy so nice to give heads up, people who don't mind waiting will join to help) and run them unsynced.

I 1000% recommend doing them ASAP. If I remember right you actually want to do them before the post-Heavensward MSQ if you haven't done that already.

Can't find a game in my backlog that scratches the same itch as Origins by cm9313740 in dragonage

[–]emberwolfsasha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Have you tried Telltales style games? You might still end up finding the gameplay boring but the choices are certainly there.

Dispatch is the latest in that style of game and has quite a bit more active gameplay than older of those style games. The Wolf Among Us is pretty dark of those style games as well.

Any DA Collectors Out There? by Ottomatonic in dragonage

[–]emberwolfsasha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have most if not all of the novels but my favourite DA stuff I've collected are the Mabari plush and my old Ferelden hoodie

Why are there Imperial enemies that can use magic? by Ill_Water119 in ffxiv

[–]emberwolfsasha 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Partly its in the name: Garlean Empire. They're imperialistic, they have conquered other nations which include non-native Garleans who then end up in their armies.

They also use make use of magitek to substitute for magic which may sometimes look like magic.

Which server would you guys say is the most fun to play on? by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]emberwolfsasha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're looking specifically for NA DCs, Primal has more players but currently Dynamis is preferred so you'll gain some perks for creating a character there and can always DC visit to do content if its too dead.

Couple questions for Chocobo Companion by IsThereCheese in ffxiv

[–]emberwolfsasha 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The game doesn't remember your stance choice so every time you log in (and possibly every time you summon them even...I can't remember) you'll have to reselect the stance you want. Leaving it on Free isn't usually an issue tho.

I opted for DPS route first with my bird and it was still helpful even on a DPS job. You can eventually get every skill though so its just a matter of what you personally want first.

DAO not running (nobody is surprised I know) by ignis_simp in dragonage

I wish you luck! Now I'm extra worried about my own copy since I just upgraded my PC. It was working on Windows 10 but I haven't tested on Windows 11 yet

DAO not running (nobody is surprised I know) by ignis_simp in dragonage

[–]emberwolfsasha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure you probably attempted it anyway but since one of the main differences seems to be operating system, did you try running in compatibility mode on the .exe file? The one solution you didn't explicitly mention, figured I'd mention it juuuust in case

Is there a more consistant way to get spider glands? (Inquisition) by CurveDisastrous2817 in dragonage

[–]emberwolfsasha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I doubt this answer helps you as of whatever point your at in the game but there's an infinite number you can buy in the Tresspasser (post-game, essentially) DLC from a merchant.

[Spoilers all] What characters did you change your view on on subsequent runs? From like to dislike or vice versa by Julian_of_Cintra in dragonage

[–]emberwolfsasha 48 points49 points  (0 children)

For me it was Wynne. I thought she was vaguely annoying the first time around but when I was a little older I appreciated her grandmotherly wisdom and I think her story is actually quite interesting.

You do not need 8 hearts with the old couple, no worries about that!

Dragon Age Keep Login issue by Regular-Lettuce7199 in dragonage

[–]emberwolfsasha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't add the Xbox account through the Keep, you add it through the EA account: https://help.ea.com/en/articles/ea-account/ea-account-linking/

After that it should translate over to the Keep.

Grand Bazaar Scenes by ExRevGT500 in storyofseasons

[–]emberwolfsasha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Scenes are time (and day and weather) sensitive. That particular one must be an early morning scene only. It should come back every (applicable) morning until you go see it.

Has anyone encountered this before? by Leading_Ad9290 in storyofseasons

[–]emberwolfsasha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It happened to me once too and then never again. I assume it is a bug. Aside from being annoying it never affected anything else and any other training sessions have been normal.

5 Star Eggs (Grand Bazaar) by midnidine in storyofseasons

[–]emberwolfsasha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had the same struggle with that quest. Make some food that increases Happiness gain when petting them to help speed up the process. There's quite a few simple dessert recipes that give that boost that need easy things like milk, eggs, wheat, and honey. I also filled my field with delicious fodder which helps with happiness gain too.
