Dragon Age Awakening: god-like talent for archers

like many of us, I thought archers are underpowered in this game. I was pretty proud when my rogue archer was finally able to deal 50+ damage. That is, until I got Awakening and found this crazy powerful "Accuracy" skill

Hey I was wondering what ur stats were. I cant see ur agi / cunning properly... I would appreciate if u list em.

And the fact if u have lethality or not.

I got some issues with my archer, what ever i put stats in... my dmg still stays the same, I need the OPness u got :P

@xero181

strg=22, dex=89, cunning= 31, willpower=32

yes I have lethality, although it doesn't make much of a difference b/c my cunning is not much higher than strength. basically just pump your dexterity

@CureForRoadRage

Awakening was a cake wake even on nightmare, for some reason every class was overpowered

@CureForRoadRage Is this sped up? You're shooting incredibly fast.

@AlgolagniaVolcae The character is max level also and was finely tuned throughout Origins specifically with Awakenings in mind. The damage is 250-300, though 250-285 is more common depending on enemy. The character can solo The Architect, The Mother, the Spectral Dragon, etc and kills childer grubs in two shots, or one shot if it was weakened by scattershot first. Burst Shot deals around 500 damage to all nearby enemies when it hits a target also. Overwhelm is the only threat.

@AlgolagniaVolcae STR:38, DEX:83, WILL:24, MAG:18, CUN:112, CON:40 are the attributes scores I use. Skills: Vitality 4, Clarity 2, Survival 4, Combat Training 4, Poison-Making 1, Stealing 4, Coercion 4. Talents: Lethality, Evasion, Full Stealth, Ghost, Song of Courage, Distraction, Dueling, Keen Defense, Dark Passage, Mark of the Legion, Strength of Stone, Endure Hardships, Melee Archer, Aim, Master Archer, Accuracy, Burst Shot, Scattershot. Everything else isn't really needed.

@AlgolagniaVolcae Alternatively use Seeker's Chain or Scout's Medal to boost dex when activating Accuracy, as the abilities all take into account the stats when they are activated. Changing gear after they are active does not reduce the effect, so cunning gear for song of courage and dex gear when activating accuracy. Also ranged attack speed is buggy, knowing what you can activate and use without reverting to slower attack speed is critical.

[AlgolagniaVolcae]

@AlgolagniaVolcae Oh and I have my copy of the game, here's the stats, skills, etc to hit for 250-300 damage on every regular shot (even versus the Harvester in GoA).

Sorrows of Arlathan (Bow, Witch Hunt DLC), Fingers of the Nimble, The Felon's Coat, Wolf Treads, with alternates for activating bard song of courage (Quicksilver or Cap of the Nimble and Slippery Ferret's Gloves). Cinch of Skillful Manuevering (Golems of Amgarrak), The High Regard of House Dace (GoA), Lifegiver, Key to the City.
