Changes: Quake (Origins)

Revision as of 10:40, 27 April 2020

For the warrior talent in Dragon Age II, see Quake (Dragon Age II).

Quake is Shale's talent from the Pulverizing Blows tree in Dragon Age: Origins.

Information

Area of effect is a 5m radius self-centered sphere.
Quake generates three shockwaves dealing (27 + 0.3 * Strength) physical damage each.
Friendly fire possible.
Conjuration time: 2s.
Upgrades Pulverizing Blows, providing +3 armor penetration whenever that mode is active.

Notes

Activation base is in stamina and values vary with fatigue%.
It's one of the best early game Shale talents (it starts with Quake learned): works great both as a crowd control tool, and as a mass damage-dealer.
Quake damage is affected by Shale's strength only.

Bugs

Despite the description, this ability does not knock characters back.
