Dragon Age Inquisition is a single player RPG developed by Bioware. The team has a lot of experience with Role playing games, as they created one of the biggest names in the industry known as Mass Effect and have even worked on other franchises such as Sonic the Hedgehog. Dragon Age is a great series because of the story, gameplay and the interactions that you can have with your party members. The appeal of any RPG is that there are multiple classes that you can choose for battle. This guide is going to tell you how to maximize the potential of the knight enchanter build.
Levels and skills
You want to be in the range of 25-30 to make sure that you are high enough level to be able to equip a lot of these skills at once. You need to consider that they are going to buff whatever spells and weapons that you have.
This means that you must sort out the armor and weapons that you have first, then decide as to which skills that you want to use on your character. Some skills may end up being useless depending on your what your loadout is.
Barrier Skill
The barrier skill is one of the most important skills that you can have for any character. It creates a shield for your character that allows you to absorb a lot of damage. This skill is good if you intend on casting a lot of buffs on yourself as well as your party members. With the right armor set along with the proper usage of this skill, you will almost not take any damage.
The cooldown is the biggest concern that you must worry about. Even though you are going to get to use it at the start of the battle, the cooldown can still put you at a disadvantage for the rest of the battle.
Static cage
Static cage is a great offensive spell that you can use against other enemies. It will do damage to enemies and paralyze the other enemies who try to leave the cage. You party members can do a lot to make sure that they do a lot of damage in that short amount of time.
The cage is only active for about 2 seconds, but that can make a big difference if you’re someone who wants to plan for a boss battle. Having the rights stats or a great weapon will really help you in this regard.
Ice armor
Ice armor is a great defensive spell that’s great for being a take or just reducing damage in general. Ice armor makes sure that whenever you are close to a frozen enemy, you can reduce the damage that is down to you which will make a big difference over time. Even without that effect, it uses cold magic to protect you in general and reduce physical attacks by 50%.
This can really help you out if you want to set up for a hard boss fight and you want to make sure the grunts don’t get in your way.

Flashpoint
Flashpoint is a spell that everyone should have on them because it’s such a great skill. It allows you to not have a cooldown for any spell when you land a critical hit. A critical hit is likely to happen whenever you are a fighter that relies on physical attacks.
This skill makes sure that there is an aspect of randomness to the entire battle. Even when you feel like you’re down in the battle, you might get flashpoint and be blessed for that battle. Flashpoint could be the difference between making a statement win in a battle or having your party get destroyed.
Fade
Fade step allows for evasive tactics which can be helpful when dealing with an enemy that’s a lot more powerful than you. The ability allows you to use magic to create invisible images of yourself and use that on your enemies. This is good if you need to retreat and heal your party so that they don’t fall during battle.
There are a ton of uses that you could use it for offensively as well. Perhaps, you want to lure your enemies to a specific point on the battlefield and do massive damage to all of them.
Armor
The shrewd cap is one of the best options that you have when it comes to using the build to its fullest potential. The head part buffs your cunning stat so that you do more critical damage. This really helps your flashpoint skill because it makes sure that there are no cooldowns the next time you use a skill.
The superb ring of critical chance is also a good item that you can use for your battles. It will increase your critical stat buy 10%, giving you an edge when attacking a lot.

Weapons
The deadly brutal scepter is one of the best staffs in the game when it comes to using high damage spells. It has a large electricity stat which is helpful for that static cage spell.
Not only will that do a lot of damage, that will also make sure that the enemies won’t be able to leave, and your party members do a lot of damage to them. It gives you a huge buff when it comes to critical damage when you get that done. There is also a chance that you will be able to automatically set a spell for one of your party members if they are within 8 meters.
