Notes...
Inventory
There is no merchant once the mission begins. Compounded with an excess of valuable items, within the mission, you quickly run out of space to carry stuff. Be sure to hit up a merchant and clear out ALL unnecessary goods before starting this mission.
Being the pack rat that I am, I keep most high value upgrades (a curse be upon those high value slotless equipment), plus high level equipment (seriously DA, equipment five levels higher than my when I attained them?). This means, that even with 75 inventory slots, I had to destroy many low value items in the latter third of the mission.
P.S. Don't forget to hit the merchant after the mission as well! Shadizar666 (Ruck Rules) 01:13, November 30, 2014 (UTC)
requirements
the requirements for certain options seem to be wrong or inaccurate, I had 99 admiration and enough proof to successfully accuse Gaspard but chosing that Celine and Briana should reconsile earns Briana an exile? 109.59.64.48 (talk) 00:39, December 8, 2014 (UTC)
You need the Elven locket found in the vault upstairs in the Grand Apartments area of the Servants Quarters that requires 3 halla statuettes to open. Then show to Celene's ladies in waiting to talk to Celene about the elven locket and then show it to Briala for the lovers to reconcile. 92.23.200.193 (talk) 06:59, December 20, 2014 (UTC)
How to deal with the short side/sub quests
A lot of them don't have their own journal entries and are just subordinate to the main quest, so I wasn't too sure how to handle them.--TubbyM0ph0 (talk) 04:17, January 2, 2015 (UTC)
Montbelliard's Ring
I kept the ring and told the noblewoman to keep searching, which completes the quest. I couldn't tell though if completing the quest that way earned any XP or Influence. Confirmation would be appreciated. --♫ Kelcat Talk 07:55, January 7, 2015 (UTC)
Color code
Would it help make the Court approval changes stand out if we color-coded them? Green for positive approval and red for negative. --♫ Kelcat Talk 01:24, January 8, 2015 (UTC)
- I was thinking the new approval template could be used.
Court Approval 5 While we're on the subject, I was thinking something more could be done to the template to make it stand out. For DA:O, there was red and green. For, DA:II there was red and blue. There really isn't something like that in place in the game itself, so I was wondering if it would benefit to make the text the same color as the icon. Something like Court Approval -10 It's still pretty true to how it's displayed in-game. --TubbyM0ph0 (talk) 02:50, January 8, 2015 (UTC)
New Bug
On my first run on PS3 since the recent patch, there appears to be a bug in Halamshiral. When trying to go to the Vestibule from the Ballroom, it will go to a loading screen as normal but when it finishes loading you're back in the Ballroom as if you never even left. Is anyone but me having this?--Dracowrath (talk) 17:24, February 8, 2015 (UTC)
- On closer inspection, I realized the problem. For some reason there are two things to target on that door from the Ballroom: Grand Ballroom and Vestibule. You have to carefully aim at the Vestibule part and hit X to go through, otherwise it'll just load the Ballroom again.--Dracowrath (talk) 17:27, February 8, 2015 (UTC)
Gaspard kills Briala
If you choose the third dialogue option after letting Celene die and having Gaspard rule unopposed, Gaspard says to Briala "Your death tonight will bring stability to the Empire." Should it be noted on the page that Gaspard kills her if he rules alone? DRAEVAN13 00:14, March 10, 2015 (UTC)
Reconciling Briala & Celene + Orlesian Banner?
Is it possible to both reconcile Briala & Celene and aquire the Orlesian Banner? The article seems to indicate that it isn't but I wanted to be sure before starting the quest. 37.2.110.224 (talk) 13:52, March 13, 2015 (UTC)
Rogue-Opened Doors in the Solo Areas
I've so far run across two locked doors requiring a rogue to open in the main areas where you can't have your companions with you. Now, I am not a rogue (I'm a mage), and I'm a bit peeved that I can't find a way to get these open (I can't even find where Varrik is hiding as well). I guess I will just keep going forward in the quest and hope I can come back here with a rogue companion later on, but this is quite annoying... Ulithium Dragon (talk) 03:18, April 15, 2015 (UTC)
Some of the companion approval notes are incorrect. To be specific, choosing to implicate Briala (Briala is an accomplice) had Cole greatly disapprove, as opposed to Iron Bull approving. --108.7.204.136 (talk) 10:58, April 21, 2015 (UTC)
All Superb Schematics
Just finished Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts, and immediately afterwards, I get the Special Shipment in the Skyhold Undercroft that contains all the Superb Schematics of the Dragon for the Deluxe Edition.--BarGamer (talk) 20:43, April 25, 2015 (UTC)
Amulet of Power
In my run through, the amulet for Vivienne did not appear in the vault loot, so I changed "always" to "sometimes". It may have something to do with the fact that I went though the Harlequin fight first, but that's purely a hypothesis. DaBarkspawn (talk) 01:45, May 3, 2015 (UTC)
- Update: amulet removed in patch 5.
Major rewrite
I closely documented the section of the scenario between talking to Leliana and talking to Morrigan. The main objective was to interleave all of the quests together into a single walkthrough. I freely admit to inventing the -> business in order to point out which subquest was involved. If there's a standard way of indicating this, let me know. It's late here now, but as I continue my playthrough, I will attempt the same sort of threading for later sequences that are complex enough to merit it. DaBarkspawn (talk) 05:19, May 4, 2015 (UTC)
- Major rewrite complete. I'm removing the cleanup tag. DaBarkspawn (talk) 07:36, May 7, 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks! DaBarkspawn (talk) 05:17, May 8, 2015 (UTC)
- Hey, HD3: I noticed that you put the cleanup tag back on. Can you specify what further cleanup you think is required? DaBarkspawn (talk) 07:20, May 10, 2015 (UTC)
- Per text of cleanup tag, I've asked for discussion of what cleanup is needed and received no feedback after a week. Removing tag. DaBarkspawn (talk) 18:07, May 17, 2015 (UTC)
- Sorry, I thought I replied to this ages ago. For one thing, there are all the deadlinks, we could also use some more headers and footers to help make it a bit more readable.
Check out Legacy (quest) for an example

HD3 (Talk) 02:51, May 29, 2015 (UTC)
I've fixed most of the redlinks and also cut out some stuff that isn't vital. Mostly loot containers that don't have anything unique or valuable in them--we don't need to make the article so lengthy as to be confusing to readers trying to just get through the main quests. I didn't mess with the headers and footers, or the abbreviations and layout-type stuff, but it could probably use some more cleaning. I don't think there's a need to note all of the "take two steps to the right and turn around" info but I left most of it for the time being. --♫ Kelcat Talk 04:22, June 6, 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for the cleanup, Kelcat. I've been on the road for eleven days and leaving again tomorrow, so I've not had time to give this the attention it deserves. DaBarkspawn (talk) 04:34, June 11, 2015 (UTC)
Court Approval
When first talking with Celene (section 2.3), the top option doesn’t give any court approval changes to my human rogue inquisitor. (Dorian, Iron Bull and Blackwall in my party) I don't know if the 10 point court approval requires certain party members or if it is just not given to rogues. --Mnfroggie (talk) 02:12, May 29, 2015 (UTC)
Split
As we do with many other boss battles (Loghain Mac Tir (strategy) and The Elder One (strategy), for instance) I am proposing we move the entire strategy section of Florianne to a new article called Florianne de Chalons (strategy). --♫ Kelcat Talk 04:39, June 6, 2015 (UTC)

-HD3 (Talk) 11:32, June 6, 2015 (UTC)
The walkthrough is very confusing in some parts due to the way directions are given. The Find the Harlequin section for example: "RJS: From the fountain return to the main path and take a left and another left."
What is considered the main path? There is a wall behind me since i jumped down and a wall ahead of me. For me the main path would have been the path i was walking in this context. At the end of the RJS description it says return to the fountain where you found the body and next it says go north. So if you should go north from the fountain when not taking the RJS detour, one could assume that since west and east is blocked, south is the path to go. So i go south and then take the left and i get to a locked door. After much confusion it turns out it should really have said right, if it means the direction the character is facing when moving in the direction specified. I think things would be easier if directions would be described as "north, south, east and west" instead since right and left are dependent on the direction of the character.
