Dragon Age Inquisition Power Farming Guide – How to Earn Power Quickly

Dragon Age Inquisition Power Farming tips to help you earn Power Quickly to unlock new areas in the game.

Both nobilities and commoners will not acknowledge your newly acquired power – not until they get a taste of it. Power and Influence are two key concepts in Dragon Age: Inquisition, but this guide is solely dedicated to Power and how to earn it!

Power is required to unlock new areas and consequently, side-quests and main-quests. Therefore, having a high Power Level is extremely important. Generally, Power is acquired by closing Fade Rifts, completing side-quests, and main-quests.
