Plan your next Dragon Age Inquisition session

Our independent guide breaks down the core pillars of Dragon Age™ Inquisition—story, world, combat, expansions, and co‑op—so you can plan each play session, track consequences, and integrate new content without feeling overwhelmed.

01 / THE GUIDE

Decision Impact Log

Create a simple table listing major choices, affected factions, and any world changes. Reviewing the log helps anticipate future consequences and keeps the narrative clear.

  • Review faction standings before committing to a major decision.
  • Recall earlier choices when new dialogue options appear.

02 / THE GUIDE

Exploration Route Planner

Sketch a route that hits two enemy keeps and one hidden cave per region. Comparing routes reveals which areas yield the most useful resources for your current objectives.

  • Mark points of interest on the map before traveling.
  • Search caves thoroughly for hidden loot.

03 / THE GUIDE

Combat Mode Comparison

Run the same encounter twice—once using the strategic pause view, once in real‑time. Note damage taken and enemy defeat speed to decide which style fits your party composition.

  • Use the pause mode to assess enemy formations.
  • Combine ranged and melee units for balanced attacks.

04 / THE GUIDE

DLC Gear Evaluation

After finishing a DLC, list its new armor and weapons alongside your existing gear. Identify stat improvements and adjust your loadout to capitalize on the DLC’s strengths.

  • Finish the main story before tackling DLC quests for smoother difficulty.
  • Compare new gear stats from each DLC with your current loadout.

05 / THE GUIDE

Co‑op Role Coordination

In a multiplayer session, assign each player a distinct role (tank, healer, DPS). Observe how balanced roles affect encounter difficulty and refine assignments for smoother co‑op runs.

  • Coordinate class selections with teammates to cover all combat roles.
  • Aim for co‑op‑specific Steam achievements for extra goals.
