Dragon Age Revenant Nightmare Solo

[tomrvn666]

Lmao if any warrior can hit 200 a hit then they beat my arcane warrior. So far anything I attack dies. And well I only take 1-2 damage when I get hit.

[smackedinthejaw]

I find that misdirection hex is my best friend when fighting Revenants; just throw one on and hack'n'slash, then if it runs out and hes still standing, run around til its recharged and throw another on. Makes easy work!

[xXxXxBetrayerxXxXxX]

i don`t know about the arcane warriors generally, as i`ve never played one, but if all arcane warriors miss THAT much, then you`re better off playing a pure melee class

[DarkAndWolfMaster]

why does every one name there girl chars lilith?

[belethaenos]

@DarkAndWolfMaster wtf! I too had made a female char named Lilith!! maybe because of magic being connected with something evil... even satanic.....

[IWhiteAssI]

I killed the archdemon as an arcane warrior/ blood mage without anything just hits

no buffs no magic :)

[TheGreatCandyman]

Wouldn't you get the same results as a rogue or dps warrior, just 10 times faster? Rogues are pretty much unhittable (except at the beginning) and warrior.... well warriors would do more damage at least.

[shadow200569]

good music but ya made it look way harder then it actually is lol

[b00mYou]

I hope BIoWare tests Dragon Age 2 more thoroughly and makes it so it's impossible to make cookie cutter builds where you can solo the game.

[XxDicloxX]

Where did the old music go!! It fitted perfectly.

[fatmanfalling]

it's not fair

every hit against a Revenant on the X box is a fucking miss

i feel like such a pussy when i have to turn the game on casual just to kill these fucking things

[dargon80]

@fatmanfalling Use Champion second skill, this it's called rally, they are cumulative so if you have more than 1 they are added together! and its +10 from each, then perfect striking and you should have no trouble hitting anything!

[ViolentKeesh]

wow thats not music

[Milithryus]

I picked arcane mage for my second game in nightmare. Arcane mages are so unbalanced that you just have to pull all the monsters from one room, go make some coffee or whatever and when you're back it's over.

[tssdemoniaco]

@Milithryus Yeah it's a bit over the top. If you want a good challenge try and complete the game on Nightmare as a Ranger, it's actually possible to :D

[Soka313]

AW is so overpowered and boring once u get all equipment I'm soloing EVERYTHING on nightmare

[robertgeorg]

good enough video, but extremely crappy "music"

[HannibalCrysis]

whats the song name? its sick! and good video =D

[formless777]

Yes, Blood Mage Arcane warrior combo is impressively powerful. Probably the toughest combo possible.

[manveru666]

@formless777 Tell that to my unhittable dwarf warrior with 100% magic resistance.

[formless777]

@manveru666

That's great ! How'd you swing 100% Magic resistance ?

[manveru666]

@formless777

Dwarf warrior (10% innate magic resist), templar specialization (40% magic resist armor from a merchant on the way to Orzammar), Spellward (30%, from Bodhan in camp), Key to the City (4% quest chain in Orzammar), two Master Dweomer runes in weapon (8% each). If you don't want to make a Dwarf you'll also need a Grandmaster Dweomer rune in your weapon. That makes you immune to all magic cast by your enemies (but not friendly).

[formless777]

@manveru666

So they actually stack, that's great. How did you render him unhittable ?

[manveru666]

@formless777

Defense rating. Got STR to like 38 base so I could wear anything with bonuses from gear and pumped everything else in DEX. Had over 170 DEF at the end of Origins. Shield Wall/Threaten/Precise Striking/Rally active.

[MadGun911]

whuut can u be a warrior mage??

[dadhitsmealot]

hey, kinda stupid question, but how did you get your action bar so long?

[tssdemoniaco]

If you look at the end of your action bar on the right hand side you'll see a little dragable tab, just drag that all the way to the right to extend your bars.

[GlobberThree000]

@dadhitsmealot PC only.

[DaRRoXX]

Arcane warrior just feels like cheating :(

Trying to solo these guys on Nightmare as a reaver (not got zerker yet) in brecillian forest without using more than 2 health pots. Hard stuff :-S

[KillingAzn]

um why use sword on arcane warrior cause swords suck even when ur arcane warrior u always miss when u try to hit...

[Lancemaker]

after some lvls u get skills to impruve hit rating. Arcane warriors are almost like cheating at endgame. they have lots of magical protection, eterial dodge, and cast offensive spells. blood mage/arcane warrior ftw.

[bafucin82]

Are you sure that you have the talent you get activated? I forgot that a couple of times. Anyway, it helps.

[happosai27]

wow wtf.. i have problems with these guys on normal and with my full group lol

[Zeldaboy25]

a good group structure is 2 mages a warrior(tank) and a rogue, it works wonders for me haha

[TheGarfi]

where did you get that armor

[happosai27]

@TheGarfi

its the dragon armor dlc

[TempusSans]

damn. my next game is going to be nightmare

[DJMight]

Why use a sword as an Arcane Warrior? I know why for this fight, but I've seen other videos of AW players using a sword over staff. With a staff, you have quicker spell casts. Against a revenant, you should cast the summon skeletal minion spell.

[KSIMJNF]

i love this game though it is disipointing that there is no multiplayer, if it had multiplayer like diablo 2 it would be pretty sick

[WrathofMark44]

serously is arcane warrior the best class ?

[theosthebest]

not really, its just very versitile

warrior - champ/temp out does it as a tank

rouge - bard/ass bard/ranger out does it in dps

mage - spirit/blood out does it as a supporter

mage - any out does it as a pure spell caster

[somuchfortalent]

@WrathofMark44

yep. boring cause you pretty much just auto attack for entire fights but it is the best.

[ibclappin]

is the spell Blood Control really that useful?

does it not cause any damage at all whatsoever when it's resisted as it's suggested by the very honest game itself or is it just me?

[cameltoejoe69]

What is the point of the Revenants/dark vials? DO you get anything special for killing all 6?

[dahoosafeth]

nope. satisfaction? XD

[splash771]

cameltoejoe69 they all drop spicial items like the jugenuit set

[cameltoejoe69]

@splash771

I knew that, but I was talking more about quest goals, because I found a note that talked about the dark vials and had 6 fingerprints so I was wondering if they were related to some side quest. But thank you for the info :)

[Denrom2]

well all the revenents are are the strongest type of deamon (pride) traped in a unded body they were sealed awey Years ago probably by some powerfull mage and scatterd across ferelden in the hopes no one ever sets them free.

[gta4megafan]

Well in the breciallian forest you can get an awesome armor set that's actually worth it

[XHZMayan]

Hahaha nice Hardstyle + dragon age = epic win

[zhupps]

Probably just need regeneration and high armour, no need portions, lol, my character went solo for the majority of the game, lol

[A1FallenAngel]

These fights are effortless as a rogue, rofl

[Ixtzalit]

I can kill him on Nightmare using only Alistair. I just need enough potions, thats all.

[jackeyjack]

how much dexterity does your arcane warrior have unbuffed?

[tssdemoniaco]

I couldn't say for certain, the character is long gone by now :p I believe my base dex was 14 though and I wouldn't have raised it beyond that.

[hesinsan3]

@tssdemoniaco do you still play the game? what was your strength at the time of this for our warrior?

[tssdemoniaco]

@hesinsan3 Yes I do still play this ;) actually using a dual wield warrior atm. Anyway, Arcane Warrior is actually a Mage specialization and their Magic stat is converted to Strength. At the time of me making this I believe I had about 52 Magic, which counted as 52 Strength ;)

[HirachieOfSociety]

max it out at 25 that way you have the cap for hit and block value also some armor will give you more dex so i maxed mine out at 18 but it went to 25 due to armors

[shenjai]

name of the song please!

[tssdemoniaco]

Name of the song is Alpha Twins - Smack my Derb.

[DragonAge1103]

I've only solo'd a revenant at a high level, I was lv23 dual wielding warrior with Veshialle & Aodh. A couple pots but wasn't too hard since he's weaker to physical damage. My dex was so high with 100% physical resist he really didn't do much damage. I wish they would of made nightmare actually challenging. Every patch seems to make the game easier & easier :( off topic, lol Good vid man!!!

[tssdemoniaco]

Haha yeah agreed on making Nightmare actually...hard, I didn't even notice a difference from normal to nightmare actually -.- was all a walk in the park.

[L4ionh4rt]

being an arcane warrior has ONE HELL OF A FATIGUE penalty, do you know of anything that might help?

[tssdemoniaco]

Indeed it does ;) but that is the whole point. You grab the heaviest possible armour you can get your hands on, on the count of fatigue not hindering you. You shouldn't be casting spells unless done so with Blood Magic, or through your buffs.

Hope that helps you :o also, i'll remove all the comments below people have deleted themselves :p.

[spicki2]

well take the wade plate armor...i had like 20% fatique and ofc its preferable to have blood magics too :D

[L4ionh4rt]

thanks man :)

[5n1p3dH]

DA has a bug that allows the AWs shield to last even if all mana has drained, IIRC

[splodead]

Nevermind, this must have been done pre 1.0.2 patch, just realized that shimmering shield deactivating on pc version was included in this recent patch, not in retail copy.

So this can't really bet done anymore.

[tssdemoniaco]

I'm not aware of any patches, as I stopped playing this awhile back now but to clarify, this was done one a retail copy. As I stated I have no clue about any patches at all :p. But yes, I rolled with just enough mana to sustain my buffs, thats all.

[tssdemoniaco]

Song is "Apha Twins - Smack my derb"

And yes the Arcane Warrior does miss a great deal, there's nothing that really helps but it's not overly noticeable imo. If I can't hit something I usually just start casting at it :p.

[rvandendikkenberg]

Question: I hear the Arcane Warrior misses alot on hits, is there a way to corecct it?

Btw nice soloing.

[Gamelover9966]

the song ftw!! :D

[Gamelover9966]

Where i live there are sexy chicks everywhere!!!

[TrueRockNRolla]

did you bother with dex at all? or just willpower to get the sustainables and rest magic + constitution

[tssdemoniaco]

No dex, only magic+constitution and yeah the willpower for my buffs.

[Gamelover9966]

hey, whats the name of the song??? (:

[tssdemoniaco]

You should have 2 points in Mage for Arcane Shield, 1 in Earth for Rock Armour, 4 in frost for Blizzard, 3 in Lightning for Tempest (or 4 for Chain Lightning if you wish), 3 for Spell Might, 4 for Crushing Prison, 3 for Miasma, 2 for Death Magic. So long as you get all the buffs, you're golden. Check out my other video if you want to see it in Action against multiple enemies and trying to make it as hard as possible :p.

[tssdemoniaco]

GTFO of my internets! :p

[tssdemoniaco]

Well I've lost my save game but it was 4 points in Arcane Warrior, 3 points in Blood Mage. I put points into Constitution and Magic with enough points in Willpower to sustain my buffs (about 21 points I'm using) As I cast with Blood Magic not my actual mana pool! Will post the rest in just a sec.

[thexsinner]

Is that Blood Dragon Armor and Spellweaver you're wearing? And what's that shield? I'm not sure because of this buff. :P

[tssdemoniaco]

Haha yeah I'm using the Dragon Armour on my chest because I didn't need the set bonus for the Juggernaut stuff and it's actually better then the Juggernaut chest piece ;). I believe my shield in this video was the Redcliffe elite shield :D
