[Sir_Strazzen]

Did you happen to do a list of Gifts for Companions for DA: 2 ? Or DA: Inq. ? Or perhaps you know of some somewhere else :"?? I'd really appreciate either , thanks so much.

[Vio]

Thank you! Fav'd for later

[Jeg blev ganket mens jeg wankede]

the alistair doll for morrigan gives her +50

[Callia]

You seem to be missing the Silver Demon Head Ring on your list. I tried searching it with Ctrl + F and it's not here. I know that there are some gifts that are generic and not specific to anyone, but I can't recall if that's one of them or not.

[Fefeta Is Gothic Melody]

*Thanks *I'm *I

[kate bishop]

thanks for this! i'm replaying the game and i want to try and become close with everyone this time around so this really helps.

[TheUsedMisfit]

Alistair really seems to enjoy the 'puppet' a considerable amount, and you can buy it at camp... i'm grateful for the items for each person but kinda odd that it was left out. i am sure this has been noted before, but thought id *renote* lol X_X =]] thank you tho 4 the work you did on this!

[Friday Night Lagnus]

The dog will take meat bones you find about the place, the cone also transforms into a usable item and if you search in the lothering chantry in the head matrons room he will find a tier 6 or 7 staff.. which is the most powerful until you get the dragonbone staff from soldiers peak.

[Friday Night Lagnus]

The lute for leliana is a big +50 item.
