Precision Targeting is a rogue ability from the Sabotage tree in Dragon Age: Inquisition.

Information

• Upgrades Throwing Blades
• Damage bonus: 25%
  • This bonus stacks

Notes

• Contrary to the description, this upgrade does not affect weapon or damage modifiers. Instead, each hit applies -50% physical resistance to the target for 3 seconds. Only the caster of Throwing Blades receives its effects, i.e. party members that strike a target inflicted by Precision Targeting do not benefit from it.

Bugs

• Due to each -50% physical resistance instance lasting 3 seconds, any basic attacks or abilities used in quick succession after Throwing Blade also benefit from reduced physical resistance.
  • Attack Speed/Animation modifying abilities such as Desperation or Flask of Lightning shorten the Throwing Blade attack sequence, giving the Rogue more time to use basic attacks or abilities following Throwing Blades.
