About this mod
Jump right into the game without worrying about installing cheat/god mods, skills, gear, farming. This save file for a level 3 elf female starts with 370K gold, full skill tree, rare gear, schematics, materials. Companions have 60-90% skill tree and are fully geared up. More save files at key points in the game will be added as I play through.
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
Crafting materials (tier 1 to 3 metals, cloths, leather, herbs) have been purchased, and the full skill tree unlocked using amulets of power to create an overpowered level 3 character. Gear has also been crafted and purchased from mods.

I will be adding more save files at key points of the game. You can find these on the Files page under Miscellaneous files.
- Level 9 - before leaving Haven / In Your Heart Shall Burn. Sided with mages. Everyone but Cole recruited. Hardened Leliana (she killed traitor in Haven scene as I did not intervene)
- Level 12 - immediately after arriving at Skyhold, all companions recruited. Sided with mages
- Level 16 - early Skyhold, before Wicked Eyes Wicked Hearts. Here Lies the Abyss started, but not yet gone to Adamant Fortress. Rift mage specialisation. 2 mil gold, all materials stocked up again. 120 power. Most fetch-type quests (except for astrariums and shards) have been completed in the Hinterlands, Storm Coast, Fallow Mire and the Western Approach. No romance locked in yet, but kissed Solas in the fade dream, flirted with Iron Bull and Cullen. Slayed three dragons and have done the pub scene with Iron Bull post-dragon slaying.
My screenshots were taken with mods switched on, and with my Xbox controller connected to my PC. If you want to replicate the look of the modded character, use Sangria (hair H) from Misc Hairstyles for Frosty by Toarie and Cass Smokey Freckles from Femshepping's Complexions. You may also need the Chargen bundle if you run into issues with the hair.
