Class specializations detailed for Dragon Age: Inquisition

As the release date for Dragon Age: Inquisition nears, the information surrounding the game grows.

So, in light of of the ever nearing release – we should start planning our class specializations now. Well, we should at least look at them.

After a brief glance at Dragon Age: Inquisition's specializations…

It looks like Berserker is out the window for the Warrior class in Inquisition (it has vanished – just as the Champion specialization vanished in Dragon Age 2), but it's keeping the Reaver and Templar class from previous games (and Champion from Origins). The Mage class looks totally different. They threw everything out the window for that one, it's all new. The Rogue can still be an Assassin, which…let's be honest – if that specialization went missing, it would be weird to say the least.

Without further ado, here are the class Specializations:

Warrior:

  • Champion: These powerful defenders protect their allies from harm, standing strong against devastating blows with expert training and fierce determination. Enemies can't kill them—and usually can't survive them.
  • Reaver: As the battle gets bloodier, these vicious and deadly warriors get even more brutal. Hurting them just makes them mad, a mistake most enemies don't live to repeat.
  • Templar: These unrelenting warriors specialize in fighting mages and demons. No enemy's magic can withstand them, and they inspire and protect their allies with their righteous power.


Mage:

  • Knight Enchanter: These rare mages received special dispensation from the Chantry to serve in battle. They summon blades from the Fade and are experts in protection and defense.
  • Necromancer: These mages specialize in binding the spirits that are drawn to death. They can put the fear of death into enemies, bring spirits to fight on their behalf, and even cause devastating explosions when their enemies die.
  • Rift Mage: These mages draw upon the force of the Fade, either pulling matter from the Fade to attack or twisting the Veil itself into a weapon to stagger or crush their enemies.


Rogue:

  • Artificer: These specialists control the battlefield with deadly traps. Neither they nor their explosive mines are ever where the enemy expects them to be.
  • Assassin: Any rogue can kill a target, but assassins make death into an art form. They specialize in quick, deadly kills that let them slide back into the shadows undetected, or indirect kills that eliminate targets while the assassin is safely away.
  • Tempest: These unpredictable experts specialize in using alchemical mixtures that wreathe them in frost or flame. Fast, chaotic, and possibly mad, they wade into the fight and dare enemies to face the storm.

Inquisition is releasing on November 18 for the PlayStation 3, Playstation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and the PC.
