Rogues Using Doors in Combat

[TheManBuck]

If you're like me and prefer Rogues, you'll have had a few ragey moments.

 

A few of the biggest rage moments were, for me, the so called "Stealth Missions" you get from Slim Couldry in Denerim. In my first playthrough, I was excited for some hardcore stealth, so I stopped by the party camp, waved goodbye, and set off alone to brake into the Demerim warehouse and steal the Teyrns silver.

 

I swiped all the silver ingots, posted a "Kick Me" note on the guard captains back, and set off to the nearest vendor to hock my ill begotten gains. Except when I clicked on the door, all I got was a message.

 

"Cannot Do This While In Combat"

 

I was suddenly and painfully aware that I was a lone rogue, the most under powered class in the game, locked in a room full of warrior class enemies, and my last save was an hour of gameplay back, not counting the autosave inside the warehouse.

 

The thing about this that makes me so mad is that the developers never planned for anything but a fight at that point. You know what that makes it? NOT a stealth mission. It's a combat mission, but it's only available to non-combat centric PC's. Why do I have to be a rogue if a warrior would actually do a better job of it?

 

I'm rubbish when it comes to modding in DA, so please, for the sake of those who like to sneak around like cowards, somebody remove that restriction on using doors in combat. After all, if they never see you, can it really be called combat?

 

TL:DR- Remove door use restrictions in combat.
