Way of the Tempest

Way of the Tempest is a side quest in Dragon Age: Inquisition. It is one of three potential quests which a rogue Inquisitor can complete to obtain a specialization.

Fill a bottle of smoke, study the methods required to use it, and Kihm will reveal the secrets of the Tempest specialization. Kill demons to fill essence containment apparatuses at Apostate's Landing, Long River, and Storm's Solitude in the Storm Coast. Readings can be found among the belongings of followers who share this discipline. Or, if unavailable, among the wares of the book merchant in Val Royeaux.

Acquisition
This quest is not available until you complete From the Ashes and reach Skyhold. The War table operation, Specializations for the Inquisitor, will appear when you leave Skyhold for the first time and return.

Three potential trainers, one for each specialization, will arrive at Skyhold to teach a rogue Inquisitor a specialization (unlike in previous games, only one can be learned). To access this quest, talk to the Tempest trainer, Kihm.

Walkthrough
You must craft a Bottle of Smoke for this quest.
 * How does one put lightning in a bottle? How does one capture the essence of fire and place it with essence of cold so they exist in harmony? To those asking such questions, understanding the storm leads to becoming the storm. More practically, the "bottle of smoke" will house the elemental forces upon which they draw to coat their blades and become a force of nature in the battlefield.

The following materials are required:
 * Writing on Tempest methods (available from either Sera or the book merchant in Val Royeaux).
 * Essence Containment Apparatuses, which are dropped by Demons found in the Storm Coast
 * Starting at the Storms Solitude Camp, travel south on the trail. Where the trail splits, choose to travel up the mountain, through a tunnel formed by a boulder over the path, then continue along the path to the left to encounter the Demon.
 * East of the Small Grove Camp, the Demon is near The Stone Tree landmark and an Astrarium on Apostate's Landing.
 * From the Small Grove Camp travel south to rocky hill right before the mouth of the Long River. The Demon can be found at the top of this hill.
 * 1 Rune each of lightning and ice essence.

Craft the bottle at a requisition table and bring it to Three-Eyes to complete the quest.

Rewards

 * Gain the Tempest specialization.
