FULL PLATINUM GUIDE by celojevic


stefannxD

Recommended Posts

I've created this list just from trophy descriptions from the guide. The Roadmap wasn't specific (at all really) so I made it specific.

This is used to get a platinum in ONE PLAYTHROUGH.

This applies to creation of a MALE WARRIOR Hawke, where you romance ISABELA, rivalry FENRIS, and friendship EVERYONE ELSE.

Friendship/Rivalry points are not specified here, so I just looked up each quest to get the info.

However, just CTRL+F the quest you're doing AND the place you're in to easily find the necessary thing to do.

Sorry I didn't put it in order, and I didn't specify a lot of things. As long as you blindly follow it and constantly check the wiki if there's confusion, I guarantee you a platinum.

Make sure to read the "other" section in the first reply.

Basically watch out for Supplier trophy at all times as well as Archeologist.

It was fairly easy for me to do, even easier if you do it on casual (i played in normal), hopefully it is for you too.

Great guide, thank you! However, there are some things that should be noted:

 

1. Regarding Act III and making a save...you CANNOT make a save before the quest "Showdown." You are automatically thrown into a cutscene and must make a decision to either support the templars or the mages (Meredith or Orsino). If you are going for the plat in one playthrough, save BEFORE you fight the Arishok in Act II. Reload that save in order to choose the opposite choices in Act III (supporting mages vs. templars).

2. Some of the wording is not entirely accurate (e.g., Following the Qun, not Finding the Qun). Just be aware.

3. Definitely use the Dragon Age Wiki to know how to gain optimal friendships vs. rivalries for your party members.

 

Thanks for all the work you did, stefann!

I'm a tad confused. Are we supposed to follow this step for step? Because with Act 1, on the very first step it tells us not spend any money until the end of the act, but then proceeds to tell us that certain recipes have to be bought. Should we buy them as we go...or not spend money?

Might be best to ask Timmah200 even if he posted a year ago.

 

He got Platinum in like 2 weeks with this guide. It must work somewhat but has a few adjustments needed to it seems.

Well if anyone is reading this in the future. He probably should have pointed out that you shouldn't spend any money because you can easily get the "Mogul" trophy in Act 1...which is to have 100 Sovereigns on you at one time. As for spending, I had 106 Sovereigns by the final story mission in Act 1...and buying everything listed only cost about 7 of them (including the 2 Backpack upgrades).
