personally I'd like to see something that makes the blood powers actually useful. most of them you pay a chunk of hp for a small benefit or the animation is so long that it isn't worth what it gives you in the first place because the 4+ autos you'd have gotten in that time would do that much more.
the mage ones the hp to mana conversion is super slow so just popping a potion would be better in all cases and you have blood magic anyway so your hp bar is more important than your mana bar to begin with, and the cd is way too long for crap health to mana ratio to begin with. the other is an arcane bolt that does damage to you and does some bonus damage to dark spawn, which is ok but realistically you have enough spells by that point and enough ways to deal damage, it's nice but that's about it.
the rogues 5% dodge is nice, take it or leave it, the second ability is yet another cunning to damage conversion in exchange for bleeding out, which will proc your own dual wield bleed talent on you which is retarded. another mod supposedly fixes things like that but I've heard it's buggy and you shouldn't need another mod to make a core feature of a dlc playable.
the warrior one has the same feature and issue as the rogue one, you take a bleed which stacks with dual wield talent if you're using it which is a shitty bug that you shouldn't have to mod to fix, but the damage is good especially for a 2 hand build, playable. the second one is another knock down to add to the pile of warrior cc.
I guess all in all the warrior ones are very good and the others are pretty uninspiring, with the mage one being absolute trash and in need of any buff.
Cool, i see that we can choose wich companion can have the Power of Blood and wich not. Seems fair enough for Alistair since he's a Grey Warden too. Can be used in Awakening too??? (please say yes) or it's for Origins only? Thanks for the mod!
I'm a complete noob at the whole console thing, I've tried to access it but can't seem to get it to work, I've downloaded this mod, installed it etc. edited the games files as shown here:
I've pressed the corresponding key (the one I set it to: "Control + Keyboard::Button_Z") yet the console does not appear, the game stops as such (can't use any of the keys e.g. "c" fpr character etc, can't move or change selected character, yet the actual console does not appear to type in the "runscript givepob" command. Also I can't seem to 'exit' meaning, I can't gain control of my characters again to move them etc. Help please?
EDIT: I've soreted the problem, changed the key to "Control + Keyboard::Button_C" and downloaded http://dragonage.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=1110
do you know the console commands to go ahead and give them the abilities? Such as Blood Fury and Blood Thirst instead of waiting to level up? I'm lvl 21 already. takes a while to lvl. impatience can too be a virtue... when time is of the essence.
Can I request to make PC learn power of blood and then make companion learn it or rather choose which companion would like to learn the ability. I have install Warden's Keep but can't progress because of quest giver map problem so I'm not learn yet the ability. I try the console command with PC not learn POB and the Mod didn't work.
