Completion of side quests - Whistling Wastes, Western Reach and Empriz du Lyon. Best early on Dragon Age Inquisition where the burial grounds
Computer game in the RPG genre, the third part of the series Dragon age, was developed by the Canadian company BioWare. Published by Electronic Arts, the release took place on November 18, 2014 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One platforms. After the events of the first part of the world Thedasa plunges into the abyss of internecine wars and political intrigue. In addition, unusual rifts open in different parts of the world, allowing demons to penetrate Thedas. The protagonist receives a mark and after closing several faults in Temple of the Sacred Ashes receives the leadership of the Inquisition to eradicate the resulting chaos. Whistling Wastes
At this location, the Inquisitor needs to find out the reason for staying in the Venatori deserts (Sand and Ruins Quest) and after that, find and examine the abandoned tombs and tomb.
Breaks near the bay
Inquisition scouts have noticed an active gap in the area of the camp in the bay, which the Herald must close. 
Sand and ruins
The Venatori are found in the Whistling Wastes. The Inquisitor needs to search two hostile camps (near the canyon and north of the bay) in order to find out the reason for Venatori's stay in this area. You need to pay attention to the documents, which will be located in hostile camps (maps are needed to complete the Tomb of Firel). 
After receiving the information, the main character must travel to the north of the Wasteland to explore the place that Venatori is called Watchtower... We climb the mountain ridge and capture the next camp, also the main character receives information about the tomb near the statue and the Venatori camp in the east in the mountains. 
During the study of the last camp, the Inquisitor discovers a letter for the Venatori masters (after clearing the area and reading the letter, the task will be completed). 
Breaks: canyons
After setting up a camp in the canyon, the protagonist will have to close the active breaks in the Veil. 
Breaks: Sand Cliffs
After Camping in Sand Cliffs (Quest Sand and ruins, the site for the camp will be discovered during the survey of the Venatori base in the east), the Vestnik will have to close the rifts in the area. 
Bone fields
A letter can be found in the Venatori camp in the west of the Whistling Wastes, which contains information about a missing patrol in the Bone Fields. In the designated area, we find an abandoned cart, we clean the area and complete the task. 
Breaks: Sun's Nest
Once camp is established on Sun's Nest, the Inquisitor must close the active rifts in the Veil. 
Firerel's Tomb
The main characters have to find abandoned in the desert tombs, which will allow maps from the camps of the Red Templars (there are only 5 graves). In order to gain access to the tomb, the Inquisitor must activate in the correct order braziers with a veil of fire, if the wrong sequence is chosen, the main characters are attacked by demons (below are given with quotations of the tablets in the required sequence). 
In the grave next to the camp on Sandy Cliffs (at 4 stables), the order of activation of the curtain fire is as follows: 1 - "This is the story of Firel ...", 2 - "koi against the will of his father ...", 3 - "For with the halls were built with pride ... ", 4 -" And with sorrow the halls were built ... ". Further, the Herald enters the tomb and receives a part of the key from the Tomb of Firel. 
The procedure for activating the curtain fire in tomb on the Burial grounds(the tomb is located in the Southwest of the Whistling Wastes): 1 - "The sons of Firel erected a monument ...", 2 - "and they worked side by side ...", 3 - "but each ruled in his own way ...", 4 - "And where did one brother fall ...". Once again we get information about the tomb of Fairel and an integral part of the key. 
A grave in the canyon (the entrance to the canyon can be found in the corresponding camp): 1 - "After many years, Firel ...", 2 - "And the burden is heavy ...", 3 - "Forced both sons ...", 4 - "and the brothers swore ...". 
Passage to the grave in a mountain fortress(at the Nest of the Sun) will be blocked, but there is a workaround (you need to climb the mountain and walk a little south to the Venatori camp). The order is as follows: 1 - "The sun scorched the sandy ocean ...", 2 - "But there was a stone in the sand ...", 3 - "Fayrel took the Stone ...", 4 - "His teig grew and flourished ... ". 
The tomb by the statue (located in the north of the Wasteland, under the large statue of the Spike): 1 - "Firel, Perfect ...", 2 - "the enmity that destroyed the teigi ...", 3 - "His own clan ...", 4 - "the upper world ...". 
After receiving the components of the key, we go to the east of the Whistling Wastes, near the entrance to the tomb there is a lair dragon(however, it can be bypassed since your opponent is sleeping). The sand scavenger has a vulnerability to cold, is protected from fire magic (otherwise, the dragon's tactics are no different from others). We get a sketch of a rune against demons and complete the task. 
This article is part of the Dragon Age: Inquisition Walkthrough series
Keywords: dragon age inquisition, inquisition, herald, mark, rifts, cassandra pentagast, solas, varrick, leliana, whistling wastelands, gaps near the bay, sand and ruins, rifts: canyons, rifts: sandy cliffs, bone fields, rifts: nest sun, firerel's tomb
The sixth part of the passage of Dragon Age Inquisition could be called "Dragon Slayer". For the first time I killed a dragon, and not even one, but four at once. Although it is worth noting that the most difficult dragons are yet to come. We will also go over the plot a little. I did not record some episodes: the quests of Serah and Vivienne, the "Brown Bog" area clearing, the collection of fragments, etc. So if something is not in the passage, it does not mean that I missed some moments. But the most important thing in the description, of course, will be.
Storm Coast - Dragon Vinsomer
At the command headquarters, I activate a new task - "Red Templars". An entrance will now open at the westernmost point of the Storm Coast map. Inside, as you might guess from the name, there are templars ... red ... Here you can also find the Black Lotus plant, as well as a locked door (the door requires the "key of the red templar", but where to get it is unknown). We interrupt vrazhin, which are not so many, and we go out to the shore with a boat. This transport can be used to get to the "Dragon Island".
Vinsomer settled on the island. This dragon, despite the 19th level, is a rather formidable enemy due to strong electrical damage. My party of Rogue (Main Persian), Mage (Dorian), Archer (Sir), and Tank (Blackwall) flew rapidly. Of course, Blackwall showed miracles of resilience, but with his damage, it would take a week to kill a dragon. As a result of the confrontation, it was decided to return to this animal later. You need to gain an advantage in the level, craft equipment not only for yourself, but also for your allies, and also pump over the tincture of protection from electricity. Then we will definitely win.
How to Defeat a Dragon - Northern Hunter
There are 10 dragons to be found in Dragon Age Inquisition. If it doesn't work out with Vinsomer or another strong dragon, then you need to find someone easier. A Northern Hunter from Crestwood would do just fine. This dragon also uses electricity magic, but it only has level 13, which is quite capable even without the use of protective potions.
Dragon loot is the best: in addition to weapons, armor and blueprints for crafting, unique items such as dragon iron, rich dragon blood, dragon tooth, dragon membrane (4th level cloth), dragon scales (4th level leather), dragon bone (level 4 metal).
Also in Crestwood are the Assassins Guild Leaders. I just lacked one sign to create a knife for the killer's path. In addition to the signs, you also need a special book, which can be found next to Cole. There should be another in Val Royeaux from the bookseller, but in my case it was not (I bought all the books).
Warden Crestwood, Josephine, Leliana
No, this is not a love triangle, but only a short summary of the content of the video. We try the elder Crestwood, build a relationship with Josephine, consult with Leliana, who for some reason does not like the whole story with Josephine. At the same time, Leliana herself does not want to enter into a vicious relationship. It's a pity, I expected to see a serious showdown between the girls for the Inquisitor! In general, the options are as follows.
Possible Romantic Interests for Female Inquisitors:
Blackwall, Serah, Josephine, Iron Bull
Possible romantic interest for female Inquisitors (only for characters of the Elf race):
Cullen, Solas
Possible Romantic Interests for Male Inquisitors:
Cassandra, Josephine, Dorian and for those who like stronger Iron Bull! OMG.
Forgotten Temple of Dirtamen
Here is a complete passage of the mission "God of Secrets". Collected all the runes and remains. At the end, we perform the ritual, summon and kill the demon, collect the loot from the chest.
Whistling Wastes
The first of several videos of the new large location - The Whistling Wastes. Here I also did almost everything, including the search for the mosaic elements (except for the quest "Notes in the Wasteland"). The main task is to find 5 gnome graves, in each of which take a part of the key. The first grave found at 25 minutes. The main thing is to light torches in the correct order, and there will be happiness.
A map of the area with all the graves can be viewed in the video "Whistling Wastes - Tomb of Firel" (from 30 seconds).
Whistling Wastes - Part 2
We continue the wasteland. I found a shop with weapons and armor, where for just 6100 I bought a very good level 22 helmet for the rogue class - Draska's Helmet. Armor level 44, as well as bonuses for defense and agility.
Whistling Wastes - Part 3
We wander through the night desert, close the gaps, chop down spiders, loot the tombs of the cows, collect a rare plant - the aria of the vandal. It is found in such large numbers only in the Whistling Wastes. Useful for improving potions.
Whistling Wastes - Part 4
I think there is no need to explain what is happening here :)
Whistling Wastes - Part 5
At the 20th minute, the grave, in which I did not immediately notice the door (why in Inquisition the doors of the dwarfs are so narrow?). In general, always try to walk "along the wall" so as not to miss anything.
How to Defeat a Dragon - Sandweeper
Sandweeper is a level 20 fire dragon of the Whistling Wastes. The fight took a quarter of an hour (starts at the 7th minute and ends at the 21st). Quickly enough he took off all his health and relaxed a little, considering that the job was done. But that was a big mistake. At some point, the dragon knocked out everyone except Blackwall and spawned its cubs, which did not allow the Gray Guardian to revive their comrades. The situation became critical when Blackwall had practically no health left. The computer enemy seemed to have acquired a human mind and spitefully poured fire without stopping. The prospect of a quick reboot and the time spent was not at all pleasing, but the battle was still managed to pull out.
Whistling Wastes - Firerel's Tomb
Behind the dragon is the Tomb of Firel, which must be opened with the pieces of the key. But as I said above, I missed one part, so I had to return. In the tomb you can find the "Excellent rune against demons" blueprint.
How to Defeat a Dragon - Ferelden Frostbite
Despite its name, "Frostbite" uses fire magic. This level 12 dragon can be found in the northeast of The Hinterlands (video 2:20).
Varric's story
This video is all about the walkthrough of Varric's quest. We return to Vallamar, kill the bad gnomes, watch the cut-scene. It all took 10 minutes. It took about the same amount of time to upgrade Bianca (Varric's crossbow). In one of the previous parts, I was already in Vallamar. At that time, it was not possible to open the 3rd level of the map. So he will be available only in this mission.
How to Defeat a Dragon - Deep High Dragon
This level 14 dragon can be found in the Western Reach (South). We approach the researcher Frederick and take the quest to lure the dragon. We set traps, we wait, we kill. The Abyssal High Dragon, like the Frostweed, is a fire dragon, so if you plan to go to her early, then it makes sense to stock up on potions of protection from fire.
Arbor wilderness
The coryphaus plans to find and appropriate an ancient elven artifact - Eluvian (later it turns out that he needs a certain Source of Sorrow), and we plan to prevent him. The bottom line is that we run through the forest to the desired marker, you can turn on invisibility and not be distracted at all by the showdown between the templars and the warriors of the Inquisition.
We reach the Mital temple, watch a cut-scene and solve puzzles of the level of the first grade of elementary school - walk on the tiles without stepping twice on one tile. The task is simple, but the implementation is such that sometimes, for some unknown reason, the "double click" still works, so you have to repeat the procedure again.
Temple of Mital and bugs
So, we are still at the elven temple. The main task is to prevent the leader of the red templars, Samson, from reaching the Source first. The commander jumps into some kind of pit and then the first choice appears: jump after him or solve several puzzles with tiles as Morrigan advises. In this case, I took advice and went running on the tiles. I think that you can go through this episode in both ways, but if you do not pass the test of the temple, and immediately go after Samson, then he will most likely get to the source first, which is not very good from the point of view of the plot, besides, I would not have received the achievement " The fruits of pride. " But just in case, in front of the tiles, I decided to make a manual save, which later played a very important role.
The puzzles have been solved and the door to the inner hall is open. I go in and I don't smell any trick. But if I had passed this place not for the first time, I would have known that a cut-scene should be triggered right at the entrance, and battles between the templars and the ancient elves should take place inside the halls. In short, a serious bug happened. I ran all over the temple and even found a waterfall where Samson should be located.
It gets worse. Not understanding the meaning of what was happening, I decided to jump into the waterfall ... And then suddenly I realized that all this time my mind was inside the matrix, and now it is free. Before me is a real, gigantic real world and an open field. With all my might I ran towards the horizon, leaving the Coryphaus and the elves behind. And everything would be fine, everything would be fun, but here the autosave icon in the corner of the screen painted a not very rosy picture of the early completion of the passage. How well I was hand-preserved on the tiles ...
Against elves
I rebooted safely, ran the tiles again and entered the hall. This time the cut-scene is triggered! A pathetic elf with a tree tattoo promises to help defeat the enemy, but after that we must leave the temple and never return here. Morrigan advises to think carefully, since the Source, for which the Coryphaus is hunting, may come in handy ourselves. In the end, I choose the option against the elves - "We may need the source."
In this situation, I get a lot of negative reaction from allies. In the temple you will have to fight both elves and templars. And in the end, Morrigan kills the head elf so that he cannot destroy the Well. The option is not very optimistic, but if such is the price of an important elven artifact, then I am ready to accept it. Just in case, I save in this place and reboot to go through this episode again, but with the support of the elves.
For the elves
The third time I had to run through the tiles. We go into the hall, listen to the elf. I give up my claims to the Source and choose the pro-elven version - “Let's help each other”.
In this case, I get approval from the allies. In the temple, you don't need to fight with anyone at all, since the elven guide will lead you in a different way. At the same time, you can find runes on the walls and chests that are inaccessible when passing against elves. In addition, Morrigan does not kill the elf, since he allows the source to be used. In short, this version is held under the hippie slogan - "Make Love Not War".
The fight with Samson itself, in any case, is very simple. This boss has a 21st level and a very painful blow, but in both cases he aggroed Blackwall's tank, which he cannot inflict damage in principle. We calmly stand aside and watch as Sera cuts arrows into a carcass. On the video it may seem that the fight is difficult, but in fact, I just did not try very hard, since the outcome was known in advance.
Samson's trial
He turned on the recording, as he planned to carry out the first execution and chop off Samson's head with his own hands. I haven’t executed anyone yet, but it was when I decided to do it with a notorious villain that I was not given such an option. But once the video has been recorded, then let it be. That's all for now.
Of course, the game was released quite a long time ago and most have already knocked out all the achievements for the game, however, I think there are people who have not yet done this, so I decided to write a small guide to the achievements. I will not paint all the trophies, because there is simply no point, because they are either light or plot.
Dragon Age Inquisition - the main game includes 52 achievements on the PC and Xbox platforms, while on the PlayStation there are 53 achievements due to the presence of platinum.
1) "As a whole"- Complete an interclass combo with a controlled character in single player.
Personally, I just froze the enemy, and then hit him with a sword and that's it. There are a lot of combinations in the game.
2) "The luminaries of their epoch" - In one playthrough, take all possible companions into the squad.
Note: This achievement is skippable.
You need to find all satellites:
- Cole: After the quest "Defenders of Justice" it will be possible to recruit him.
- Sir: Appears in Val Royeaux on the quest "Friends of Red Jenny"
- Vivien: After the scene with Lucius during the quest "The danger has not passed" in Val Royeaux at the Summer Market, the envoy of the Circle of Mages will appear, after talking with whom you will receive the quest "The Imperial Enchantress". (Also, be careful - Vivien can only be recruited before going to Skyhold.)
- Dorian: Overall in Recruiting Dorian is no different from recruiting Cole, except that you must follow the path of the mages and select the Tempting Whisper quest to meet him. Although even if you choose "Defenders of Justice" - he will still appear in the shelter after completing the quest.
- Blackwall: After returning from Val Royeaux, receive the Lone Guardian quest.
- Iron bull: After a trip to Val Royeaux, the Captain of the Bulls quest will become available.
- Cassandra, Varric and Solas:Join at the very beginning of the game.
3) "Readiness"- Find the Veil Rune.
The curtain runes are runes activated by a special torch (which can only be lit by a magician and it burns with green fire).
As soon as the torch is lit, just explore the nearest territory (usually the runes are located in caves, on the walls), it will not be difficult to find them, they will glow when approaching them with a burning torch.
4) "Liberator"- Liberate three fortresses in one playthrough.
Fortresses can be liberated in the following locations:
- In Crestwood (Caer Bronak Fortress);
- In Empriz du Lyon (Suledin fortress);
- In the Western Limit (Griffin Wings Fortress).
5) "Starsyes bala "- Earn the complete location of the Orlesian court.
Quest "Evil Eyes, Evil Hearts" - It's easier to get this trophy playing as a human, since you will start at 40/100 (in the case of others - 25/100)
The most important thing here is to answer the questions correctly during conversations, especially during a dance with the queen's adviser, to look for hidden documents (we give them to Leliana), as well as coins that we throw into the fountain.
6) "Regalia"- Fully upgrade one throne.
Just complete additional tasks (meaning tasks for the extraction of resources) at the command headquarters and sooner or later you will receive parts.
7) "On fiery wings"- Find a powerful ally to equalize forces.
Easy to miss! During the plot quest "The Fruits of Pride" in the Elven Temple, you will be offered a choice - to drink from the spring yourself or give it to someone else. You need to drink from the source yourself, and then a new location will appear and on it you will need to fight the dragon. (the dragon has a high level of health and level 17, so I advise you to be well equipped, although to defeat him you need to injure him only 50%)
8) "Keymaker" - Get into the heart of the Solasan Temple.
First you need to complete the quest "Collecting the fragments", but this quest is not given immediately. First you need to find at least one shard, for this you need to travel the world and look for the skulls (telescopes in the form of a glowing skull) - eyepieces, then we look into it and mark the sparkling fragments, then collect them.
All Shards: (114 Shards in total).
Hinterlands - 5 ocularums and 22 shards
Stormshore - 4 Eyepieces and 13 Shards
Forbidden Oasis - 4 Eyepieces and 15 Shards
Western limit - 5 ocularums and 14 shards
Sacred Plain - 3 Eyepieces and 16 Shards
Emerald Graves - 2 ocularums and 13 shards
Emprise du Lyon - 2 ocularums and 13 shards
Whistling Wastes - 4 Eyepieces and 8 Shards
"Calm the spirit", "Transfer the cold" and "Conquer the fire", after completing which the main door will open behind which there will be a demon of Pride and after defeating which you will receive a trophy. (don't forget to open the last sarcophagus).
9) Dragon Storm- Kill 10 High Dragons in Single Player.
- Ferelden frostbite - has a 12th level, lives in the interior lands (northeastern corner of the map, north of the camp in the Rebel Queen's ravine).
He loves to summon little dragons to help, which greatly complicate matters.
- Northern hunter - has a level 13, lives in Crestwood (in the Black Marshes in the southeastern corner of the map, south of the camp at the Three Trout farm).
-Abyssal High Dragon " - has a level 14, lives in the Western Reach (in the southwestern part of the location, south of the camp in the Nazer pass)
This dragon cannot be found just like that; in order for her to arrive, you need to complete the quest chain of Frederic de Sero.
-Gamordian Buregon - has 15 level, lives in the Sacred Plains (in Crow Marsh, in the northeastern part of the location), which can be reached by completing the command rate quest "Get access to the Gilannain grove".
- Great Mistral - lives in the Emerald Graves (northern part of the map).
- Vinsomer - has 19 level, lives on the Storm Coast, on the Dragon Island, to get to which it will not work right away. You can get access to it after completing the "Red Waters" quest.
- Sand scavenger - has level 20, lives in the Whistling Wastes (in the eastern part of the location, next to the entrance to Firel's tomb).
- Hyvernal - has 19 level, lives in Empriz du Lyon (Etienne's Ring just behind the Judicael Bridge). To get to the other side, you need to complete the quest at the command headquarters "Restoration of the Judicael Bridge".
- Kiltenzahn - has 21 levels, lives in Empriz du Lyon (in the Ring of Judicael, next after the Ring of Etienne).
- Highland bane b- the most difficult dragon in the game, has 23 levels, lives in Empriz du Lyon (in the Ring of Leontine in the northern part of the Solar Puddles).
First Expansion - "Jaws of Hakkon" - includes 4 achievements.
1) "Pyro" Destroy all winter shards and light all the lights in the old temple.
Here I would advise you to watch a video on the location of the fragments on the Internet, it will be much easier.
2) "Historian"- Uncover the secret of the legendary personality.
Subject achievement.
3) "Popular name"- Impress the Avars of Stonesbear and win their friendship.
Quest "Guests of the Stronghold".
You need to get 5 approvals and the trophy is yours. In general, everything is simple here.
Many will receive approvals after completing story missions, but you will also have to complete additional ones.
Complete the quest "Father's Name" and give the loot to the master of the hunt (required).
- After completing the quest "Trials of Gakkon" also get approval.
Complete the Up and Away quest.
- Complete the quest "In Exile"
- We also complete several tasks at the headquarters of the command, for which they also give approvals.
4) "End of winter" - End the myth of the ancient days.
Subject trophy.
Second addition"Descent" - also includes 4 achievements (I will not describe them, they cannot be missed).
Third expansion "Outsider" - includes 11 achievements, but we will not analyze everything, but only those that can cause difficulties.
1) "Trial of the Hermit"- Kill 10 Big Bears made stronger by a Disservice.
Big bears are found only in the "Emerald Graves" location, we turn on the test and go there. I advise you to look for bears closer to the water, near rivers and on small lawns. I do not advise going north, as trolls already live there and there are almost no bears there.
2) "Trial of the Fool"- With the "Take your time" challenge enabled: reach Skyhold at level 5 or lower.
Complete only story quests, do not read the scrolls, avoid enemies if possible.
3) "Thinking outside the box"- Open all the caches guarded by ancient statues.
Elven Ruins, Forgotten Sanctuary. Here we read the inscription on the stone opposite the statue of the wolf and light the torch at which the statue of the wolf is looking.
- Ruined Library, Scientist's Refuge.
- Located in the deep paths, we are looking for a blockage in front of the eluvian. But keep in mind that you can only get there when you get the Anchor Burst ability, so you will have to return.
- Located in the Darvaarad location, in the research tower. not far from the entrance to the tower on the left. (We light the fire in the following order: Owl, Deer, Dragon)
4) "Coroner"- Find all fit-to-measure clothes.
There are only 4 things that are in the chests. All of them are located at the "Crossroads" location. Here it is better to watch a video about their location, although it will not be difficult to find them yourself.
Also remember that if you load the save and turn on the test, then it will not be activated immediately (Example "Test of the Empress"). You need to leave the location you need and enter it again.
Let's play !!!
I am not an EA employee.

That's all. I wish you a successful passage!
This trophy can be conveniently combined with killing 10 High Dragons.
When you decide that you want to take care of dragons - go overboard. There are 10 dragons in the game and they can be roughly grouped in the order of their level increase:
- Those who are afraid of the cold
- Those who are afraid of spirits
- Those who are afraid of fire
When we entered the temple, we saw 3 main doors and look at them with their faces - know that the door on the right protects from fire, the central door is responsible for the cold, and the door on the left is for the spirits. There are several more doors behind each eddy. The further you advance in the frame element, the more the loot will benefit. Therefore, I advise you not to run from "element to element", but to open the doors consistently.
You can start from level 14-15. Just approach the doors with a large supply of shards, since there is no camp or landmark and you will have to run tediously. And yes, to get the achievement you will need ALL the shards in the game.
