"There is no glory in bloodshed!" The Warden says as he savagely eviserates a bandit and steals his lifeforce

How can you use heavy armour when your strength is low?

А теперь покажите как дела обстоят с нежитью, им пофигу на магию крови

Question is: How he is normal fighting with Precise Striking? It has penalty to attack speed.

Going to try this on my next playthrough

My build casts; barrier, frost step (chilled status), barrier boosted firemine/winters ruin (1000 bonus damage to chilled), barrier boosted immolate(detonates frozen enemies), decloaking blast fade cloak plus 3x spirit blades. Repeat and skip barrier if you don't need it, and winter's ruin/firemine if they are on cooldown or you don't have enough mana. Frost step, upgraded immolate and fadestep all have 12s cooldowns so you should be able to do a near continuos cycle of frost step, immolate, fade cloak, 3x spirit blade with clean burn as they all cost 35 mana or less. Firemine/winters ruin/barrier will take two or 3 cycles to cooldown and winters ruin/barrier cost 65/50 mana respectively so you won't be able to cast them often unless your lucky with flashpoint. If you're using focus abilities too you can throw in a fully upgraded antivan fire to stun mobs then detonate them with immolate to do massive spirit damage and weaken them as well as generate more focus because it's a "cross-class combo." 🔥 💥 😈

these kotor vids were fun to watch and I really enjoyed hearing your thought process behind the builds. wish there were more, but I'm thankful for what you did upload. cheers!

bro forgot to use berserking the entire vid lol

I still wonder why they decided to make bow skills so much slower on PC. This looks good, meanwhile pc bow is autoattack simulator most of the time because even Arrow of Slaying sometimes is a DPS down.

Just put all your points to strength. Dex is totally useless.

Unfortunately warriors are pathetic in this game. Mages take all the Glory

I remember the difficulty spike at 36:45 from my first play. I had a melee character and that dude would roast my whole group with fireballs. So I did the logical thing and switched to a mage character :D Later, with more experience I did the same as you. Sneak in with stealth, then pinning shot. Took some trial and error, but can we done and works well.

I've been looking for something like this for weeks, what a great video!

64 armor is insane lmao.

I'm on this quest now, i did talk to the friend but cant see the marker. where's the warehouse?

Glad to see this was on console, I really just don’t like kb&m for Dragon Age

Something about two pride demons popping up to fight you on a video about a solo nightmare build is very funny to me. Great vid, cheers!

I’m using this build for my new play through I just started 😁👍

Great vid. Love this game and your vids!

Since Magic takes the place of Strength, does that mean it also counts towards the accuracy of Melee attacks? 🤔 I understand it doesn't boost physical resistance, but the accuracy part is very important since you don't need Dexterity.

Great video as always! Keep them builds coming. I remember I found your channel during my last DA:O walkthrough in 2020. Recently I started playing BG3 and immediately thought that you probably love the game as well as it feels more of a sequel to DA:O than DA2 and 3 imo ;p Cheers Bro, keep this channel alive!

Lazy gear

This was like Stealth Archer for me

Fine. I do have opinions on the chest, gloves and boots for the build. Actually, a pair of gloves will give you +1 to Spell DC and attack rolls, making our DC 23 (without the Threatened condition). Left entry = my good playthrough armor, right entry = my evil playthrough armor Chest: Armor of Resistance / Plate Armor +2 Gloves: Legacy of the Masters / Helldusk Gloves (+1 to spell DC and attack rolls) Boots: Boots of Persistence / Boots of Striding Hail the Storm Lord!

Did this amazing explanation of the build but you missed one minor detail. Destructive Wrath can be used with spell scrolls. Like a scroll of chain lightning.

Great video. Miss all the old build videos.

Also any advice for the support characters or does the Comp do right by them on Noghtmare mode lol?

Also your gear I guess it’ll work with everyone but qunari so I guess to piggy back on first question go elf,human, or dwarf for gear stat benefits? Or it isn’t that race specific? Thank you

Does the race effect the overall performance of the build? I know is elves get the 25% range defense thank you for the quality vid man

I've done this even before youtube videos about it came. It's nice seeing this after so many years.

Awesome video. I will give a go as soon as I finish ME. BUt I took me some time to realise that your character is called Dalek, EXTERMINATE :D

2023

Love the video man.

What’s the base stats besides the plus points to all stats

Ya poor Bao-Dur, he really does get shafted when it comes to ways to build him effectively. So many other good companions I never felt the need to take him. I may try to build him as an unarmed character next time I play... which will probably be soon.. Who needs new games when I can keep playing Dragon age and kotor over and over again.

Nice video man! I really enjoy build videos like these, especially your work in DA:O 👍 Any plans to make videos on Baldur's Gate 3? The game seems to be right up your alley.

Glad to see you post a new video. Keep up the great work with your videos. Looking forward to more if and when you've got the time.

Really good video. Levelling Atton to level 12 is a great strat since defense is really important especially for characters/class with low hp pools. Cutting him off early at level 9 also isn’t a bad idea for an alternative strategy since he still gets another level of sneak attack and some extra force powers which is always good. Atton isn’t at all a strong dedicated force user. Because of his low base wisdom and low force point pool enemies are likely to succeed against his powers with saving throws. But even with that in consideration some Force powers are stupid busted in kotor regardless if saving throws are made(force storm go brrr). If you’re going for a melee/lightsaber build for Atton I’d go for the lv. 12 strat so he gets a stronger sneak attack and scoundrel’s luck to boost his offense(other party members can use valor and stun enemies), and lv. 9 for a ranged build so Atton can better spam force powers for his teammates. Your tips for allocating his attributes are fantastic. Couldn’t have said it better myself. Putting points into wisdom may seem bad on a surface level because even at 16 wisdom Atton doesn’t even break 200 force points as seen in 5:29 but it really helps with helping Atton fight against enemies saving throws. Getting a successful stasis or insanity is vital for maximizing his damage output. The other strat of continuously buffing his con is definitely better than you made it out to be, some of the 18 con implants are insanely good but your suggestion in the video to build a median between the two is better and more well rounded. If you’re planning on making more kotor videos I’d love to watch them. It’s obvious you’re extremely knowledgeable about this game. Also it’s super nostalgic seeing the xbox version of the game again. Been years since I’ve played it. I put in half a dozen playthroughs into this version if the game before getting a pc as a teenager. The UI in this version is GOATED. Which version do you prefer using?

i notice you have frost weapons, i get this is just to unlock cone of cold but it's actually bugged, if you use frost weapons, and use fire weapons during the cast animation it applies both buffs

Hint: you can take out magic welders using aim+arrow of slaying

i lov dis gam so big

Top 5 rpg of all time

Very nice voice and laugh

Sweet! Voiceover!!! I can listen while driving/working.

Thank you for these builds for these old games. You’re cleanse and consice . I subbed to see if you do this for other rpgs

I know... you uploaded it 3 years ago, but thank you! I really want to use Morrigan's shapeshifting and I built something similar to your mage, but on Morrigan. It works really well. A lot of websites talking that shapeshifting is completely useless for the Warden, and Morrigan too. They were wrong! I just found your video, so I don't know, but do you have videos about DAO companions builds somewhere here or not? Or maybe... could you make it? :)
