Promotional[]
Released: March 8, 2011 Hindsight is a belt possessed of a strange, slow intellect. Whatever would have killed the wearer, does. At that very moment, the belt develops a resistance that would have saved them. No one knows how Thaulid managed this, and at this point, it would be difficult to ask him. When the belt is held in the light just so, the leather reveals a grisly catalogue, etched in glinting lyrium: "Thaulid Hammerspur, fire. Gorgut The Wizened, poison. Vil Arak, stabbed forty-three times. Haliath Baronet, witches."

Released: March 8, 2011 Hayder's Razor is an ancient dwarven blade which increases health, mana, and combat abilities, in the full release of Dragon Age 2.
Released: March 8, 2011 "Listen, do you hear it? A soft swish, barely audible. No? Some hear it, some don't - well, not right away. But in the end, everyone does. It comes from this ring. 'Old as creation,' the Dalish I bought it from said. You can see the Circle's marks right here, barely. When I heard the sound the first night, I grabbed my sword and called out, 'Intruder!' But there was no one. Just the ring. Did some research after that. A mad Formari made it. It's powerful, to be sure. One scholar thought that if you could only make out the whispers, you'd learn... something. The ring was pried out of his hands, and he begged and pleaded that they return it. He claimed he could almost hear it, understand it. One thing's for certain: there's more to this ring than meets the eye."

Released: March 8, 2011 for Play.com, Best Buy and Brloh.sk pre-orders Amulet Of Ashes is a ruined piece of charred wood hangs from its setting of half-melted gold. Holding it over an open flame, however, reveals its powers - in the flickering flames, the gold recedes into some former shape while the wood turns brown and reveals its grain.
Stats: Heavy fire resistance, adds to fire damage, adds to health regeneration
Released: March 8, 2011 for any pre-order The core of this blade is old. As old as the first smiths who sought a way to battle the nightmares from the land beyond. It has fought the demonic hosts in countless battles. Sometimes it has been held high in triumphant victory. Other times, it has lain broken besides its dying owner. But after every defeat it has always been reclaimed, reforged, and made stronger. Fadeshear has passed through many hands before yours. Now it is your turn to make the demons of the Fade pay for crossing the Veil into the waking world.
The Fadeshear sword is a one-handed sword for Dragon Age II available when you pre-order from participating retailers.
Stats: Improves with each level-up, additional damage vs. demons and undead
Released: March 8, 2011 for EA Store pre-order Adds to all elemental resistances, adds to health, adds to constitution.

Stats: Adds to all elemental resistances, adds to health, adds to constitution
Released: March 10, 2011 for BioWare Store orders As legendary as these so-called 'Crows' are, why is it you keep finding their stuff for sale? Is it that they need the money? Sure, that's a fine assassin–needing to palm off his belt for poisons and what-not. The only other possibility is if someone knicked it off one of the dead buggers. So who wants to hire these awe-inspiring assassins? Either their britches keep falling down or they've got dozens of dead mates that keep keeling over. I grant you, this is a magnificent belt–best I've seen. But I'd downplay this whole Crow malarkey.
The Antivan Garrote belt is an exclusive item for Dragon Age II available from the BioWare Store for any orders. (Only for Xbox 360 or PC)
Stats: Adds to critical chance, adds to critical damage, adds immunity to flanking

But everyone remembers the gallant young lord Emile Deveraux, "The Golden Prince". Though outnumbered at every turn, he racked victory upon victory culminating in the Seventh Battle of Roses. While wearing this shield he broke through his uncle’s vanguard to win the day. He never knew the taste of defeat, instead meeting his end at the hands of a jealous lover in the dead of night.

When Evra gained notoriety by defeating the Blood Sisters of Vehnstel, he was wearing his signature ring.
