It does work sometimes, but the failures often stand out more because people look at it and say 'they should have just played normally.'

Very much some confirmation bias going on.

That said, I think it works worse in college where defenses are often just not very good.

I've seen that a few times.

It's one of many reasons why I think we need to have multiple years of basic economic schooling, at least in high school. Millions of people have no idea how to live within their means, and the credit card industry has preyed upon that weakness.

It's not at all the same as waitstaff that often gets paid like 2$ an hour & have to live off tips.

I still never understood why people say this. I found that many bosses were immune to the backstab, and I found that any enemies that aren't will turn their attention to the damaging rogue pretty quickly. I don't recall regaining aggro with the warrior being very easy in that game, but I also would say I wasn't always very good at video games back at the time that I played this game.


Even if something is immune to backstab-- your cunning is so high that you're penetrating all of their armor, meaning you're doing that much more damage. And double daggers attack faster than other weapons, meaning even more DPS.

Not to mention the assassin abilities that allow you to to crank DPS up to insane levels. And with cunning, you take Bard to kick on a song with enormous buffs to make your DPS even better.

Yes, I'm aware they have some crowd control powers in the game-- but archers are typically about ranged DPS, which they fail at in DAO.

Archers do what they're supposed to do, crowd control.

And if you don't want to use Leliana or Zev, the Warden has to pick up the slack.


A) Mages do better crowd control. And since when are archers about crowd control anyway?

B) Double dagger cunning build rogue for the Warden is the way to go in Origins. So much DPS.

If you want sheer damage, Archer in Awakening basically has guaranteed crits (with the right Bow, and I think you can buy it) and one or two shots everything. Combine that with Scattershot and they're dead before they can do much


Sure, but that's only in the expansion-- archers aren't that good in the base game.

This is extremely common, especially in relationships where the woman has a Cluster-B disorder.

My ex was very progressive and would constantly go on rants about toxic masculinity and how men should open up about their feelings instead of (in her words) "doing the bullshit macho thing". Literally every time I had a panic attack, she would roll her eyes and loudly tell me to shut the fuck up.

It's just how it is, and there's no changing it.


Exact same thing happened to me. My ex is the most progressive left wing person I've ever met, talks all sorts of shit about toxic masculinity and still would specifically insult me about not being manly enough.

After my cat died, I cried in front of her. She was nice to me for one day & then went back to the insulting, abusive behavior.

That was 8 years ago & it's the last time I will ever cry in front of a woman. If I'm going to cry, it will be when I'm alone & can be in peace.
