Character Creation

Lineage

Your lineage (formerly called race) has no impact on combat gameplay, apart from the old “no Dwarven Mages” limitation.

Elf

Descendants of an ancient, fallen empire. Pushed to the margins in the past, some elves are building a brighter future by exploring their civilization’s lost wonders.

Qunari

Feared and envied for their size and strength. Some Qunari follow a strict philosophy from their homeland, while others joined different cultures generations ago.

Human

An ambitious and prosperous people. Humanity’s various kingdoms are the ascendant powers of this age.

Dwarf

Clever and tough in equal measure. Dwarves cannot dream or wield magic, but possess a mysterious and ancient bond with the earth.

Dwarves can’t be mages.

Class

Rogue

The rogue’s hallmarks are quick movement and reflexes. Whether wielding a bow or dual swords, they use powerful, precise strikes for lethal damage.

Warrior

Warriors command the flow of the battlefield. Some lay waste with sword and shield, while others use a two-handed weapon to send enemies flying.

Mage

Mages rain down fury with spells that incinerate, freeze, electrocute, and crush. Some cast from afar, while others prefer close-quarters combat.

Faction

Your faction choice influences Rook’s backstory and conversation choices.

Lords of Fortune

An informal collection of explorers, hunters, and treasure seekers from Rivain, the rowdy Lords are famed for both daring exploits and narrow escapes.

• Together in Glory: Gain reputation with the Lords of Fortune more quickly
• Healthy Competition: Deal increased damage vs. Mercenaries

Rook Abilities

Abilities are unlocked via the Constellation skill tree. Each level up provides a skill point to spend, with further points being rewarded for exploration.

The skill tree is hexagonal, with you starting in the center.

There are 4 types of skills:

• Abilities are active actions you trigger during combat
• Ultimates are devastating abilities that take a special resource to use
• Traits are activated by button combos
• Passives are always active

Every other corner of the hexagon has a Specialization attached. Specializations then have their own mini trees using the same skill points.

Specializations unlock at level 20 and only a single one can be active at a time.

Each Specilzation’s Traits (X,Y,Z 5 and 11) have additional level requirements of 30. Once you pick one, the other Trait’s level requirement increases to 40.

The Factions mentioned in skill tree sections and Specializations have no gameplay relevance outside of their vendors potentially having more gear for the lore-linked classes. You can choose any Class and Specialization with any Background.

You can reset your skill points at any point outside of combat for free.

Larger skill tree image here || Dark mode version (You’ll want this in a different tab anyways)

The three skills at the very center (A0, A1, and A2) do not cost skill points to unlock. A0 is the base class. A1 and A2 are your class’ first Ability and Ultimate which unlock during the tutorial.

Some Passives do appear multiple times, both within a class and across classes.

(Damage numbers are my estimations for level 1 with no gear. These are likely not exact but should be in the right ballpark.

I believe that damage bonuses scale additively. So if you got +20% Cold damage, +15% Ability damage from an item, and +10% damage to Control Abilities, you’d simply get 20%+15%+10% = 45% bonus damage on a Control Ability with Cold damage. No multiplicative scaling between bonuses.)

Rogue

Rogues are cunning and adaptive. They fight with two swords and a bow while exploiting any weakness in their enemies.

Companion Abilities

Companions start with all 5 of their active Abilities already unlocked once you fully recruit them.

You earn additional skill points by deepening your relationship with them, not via level ups. Each increase in relationship rank grants 2 skill points.

Each Companion Ability has multiple upgrade options in the skill tree. These upgrade paths are mostly linear but also feature two pairs of mutually exclusive enhancements per ability.

Companion Abilities function purely on a cooldown basis, not using any resource. Using a Companion Ability will apply its cooldown to all of that Companion’s Abilities.

All Companions also have the Attack My Target ability which orders them to focus on a certain enemy. This Ability can be enhanced by items.

Story choices can impact your Companion’s Abilities.

While it hasn’t been officially confirmed, Companions seem to be immortal in combat.
They do get attacked occasionally and can be crowd-controlled. However, there is no health bar for them on the UI, their Abilities and items don’t provide defensive stats, and all heal abilities only target Rook. Combined with the inability to directly control them, all things point towards them being unkillable in battles.

Each Companion also has a non-combat Passive ability which aids in exploration. Rook can call upon Companions to use these even when they’re not in the active party.

(Damage for companion abilities, where listed, is an estimate for its level 1 value with no gear or other bonuses. I may be wrong on those.)

Equipment

Equipment can be found in chests or bought from vendors.

Finding a duplicate of an item you already have increases the rarity of the possessed item, unlocking additional effects, and upgrades it to the current Caretaker level.

An item’s effects typically unlock one rarity level at a time, meaning common rarity (white) items often have no effects, uncommon (green) ones have one, rare (blue) ones have two, epic (purple) ones have three, and legendary (orange) ones have four.
This is not a hard rule, however, and plenty of exceptions were shown.
Increased rarity also improves items’ stats, though usually not the effects’ power.

There are also Unique (red) items which do not get rarity upgrades. These were not allowed to be shown by content creators.

Any item that is found or bought will be at the Caretaker’s Workshop rank which determines their basic stats. Items can be upgraded up to the Caretaker’s current rank at the Workshop. This upgrade level is indicated by a +1, +2, … next to the item name. Upgrading items costs various materials.

Regular shops require an investment of Gold, materials, and (if they belong to a faction) a certain reputation with the corresponding faction to increase their rank and thereby inventory.  

Some story choices might lock you out of the standard way to acquire certain pieces of gear but there is always an alternative way.

Each companion has 4 entirely exclusive gear slots. They can not equip rings etc. either.
You will not find gear for classes other than your Rook unless it’s companion gear.

Transmog System

Using the Wardrobe, you can apply the appearance of any collected item to any item in the same slot. There are also appearances that you can find by themselves without an associated item.
There appear to be 40-50 different appearances per weapon slot and 100-120 for helmets and armor. This likely includes different colorations of the same model since color can’t be adjusted freely.

The same is true for companions, though with a much more limited selection, at least some of which are unlocked via quests or quest choices. (Possibly no Companion weapon transmogs beyond the Deluxe Edition ones)

Helmets and Qunari Vitaars can be hidden, hidden in cutscenes, or always shown.

Miscellaneous

Enemy Health

Aside from an enemy’s regular (red) health bar, there are two more types of defenses that, if present, need to be overcome first:

Barrier: Teal bar that is weak to ranged attacks

Armor: Yellow bar that is weak to heavy attacks

Additionally, player attacks can fill up a violet Stagger bar which, once full, puts the enemy in the Staggered state, allowing the player to perform a takedown for massive damage.

Ultimates

Only one ultimate ability may be equipped at a time. Using an Ultimate requires a fully charged Ultimate meter which is achieved by damaging enemies.

Skill points can also occasionally be acquired through exploration.

Caretaker’s Workshop

The caretaker’s Workshop is located at the Lighthouse. It allows Rook to upgrade items and enchant items and abilities.

Any item that is found or bought will be at the Caretaker’s Workshop rank which determines their basic stats. Items can be upgraded up to the Caretaker’s current rank at the Workshop. This upgrade level is indicated by a +1, +2, … next to the item name. Upgrading items costs various materials.

New Enchantments for items and abilities unlock with higher Caretaker rank.

Increasing the Caretaker’s Workshop rank requires finding various Mementos in the world or buying them. The maximum rank is 10.

Rank 3->4: 1250 (+500)
