But I play on normal.

And friendly fire applies on all levels but Easy.

We appear to be talking past each other.  Yes, I know that.

But DP mentioned that FF does NOT apply on the XBox version of the game, at normal difficulty level, which would make it quite a bit easier.

I can confirm this.

It is NIGH impossible to plan any kind of meaningful strategy on the Xbox version.
Winner of THE grumbler point.

Finally did it, at hard, with my warrior character.

Waiting for the expansion pack, I completed all origin stories, and I'm nearing the end with my rogue character, a female city elf.

Anyone here took a Dwarf noble?  Is there anything special when you get back to Orzammar?

Everyone hates you and calls you a kinslayer.  Harrowmont is obviously friendly toward you and says he always believed in you, yadda yadda.  Bhalen is all kinds of a dick to you, and expects you to screw him over and side with Harrowmont, though if you do side with him he gives you some respect.  I've got a save where I plan on backing Harrowmont, but I haven't gotten back to it yet.  There's some dialogue about various aspects of the origin story, but I forget them all offhand.

The best aspect for a dwarf noble is in Denerim:  your former second is there as a merchant.  He's pays way above the normal rate for stuff.  It's easy to make a mint selling to him.  I was able to buy every top end piece off of merchants in the game simply by selling everything to him and building up tonsof cash.  I even had enough left over to give 120 gold to Redcliffe's forces.

I will be soon completing my 3rd playthrough - but I've never been interested in dwarves - they're ugly as sin. 

Besides if you need money: type " ` " (tilde) and then "runscript zz_money 5000000" and you get 500 golds in your chest.

Seriously?  You think the dwarves of Dragon Age are ugly?  I mean they are just short humans.  Alot of them do not even have beards.

Dwarves are much cooler then Elves.

But Grallon only wants to play with characters he'd like to fuck. So male only too?
Colonel Caliga is Awesome.

Not true he has played females before. He even has a screenie of one he is playing in this thread IIRC.

Then. He should play the Dwarves. The Casteless story is the best of the game.

Playing on the 360, so no nudity codes, no chest code, no gold cheat codes, nada but skill and determination. :showoff:

I think he still demands his female characters be HOTT on an aesthetic level even if he woudn't have sex with them.

Except his female character was not HOTT, at least in my opinion.
