Dragon Age Inquisition War Table Operations and Missions Guide

Your War Table is located in the Skyhold where your War Council gathers round a large table displaying the whole map of Southern Thedas.

You can task your three Advisors to conduct operations in Orlais and Ferelden to grow the Inquisition, gain rewards, and unlock more operations.

You can complete two types of operations at the War Table: Scouting Operations and Missions. Always make sure to see the completion time required by a particular War Table Operation before sending one of your Advisors.

Dragon Age Inquisition War Table Operations

Scouting Operations essentially revolve around exploring new areas and unlocking new locales which require Power. After choosing a Scouting Operation, you will be asked to select an Advisor to overlook the whole operation.

Scouting Operation does not take any time of your Advisors and are completed in an instant. Your Advisor can still perform different tasks while overlooking a Scouting Operation.

Unlike Scouting Operations, Missions require real-time of your Advisors or their Agents and expand the stories of the Inquisition. The Mission screen will detail everything there is to learn about the mission. It is recommended that you give it a read and select the best candidate to complete a Mission. Here is a quick rundown of your Advisors’ strengths:

Josephine – a diplomat who has many different connections
Cullen – an ex-templar who relies on force to bring down the enemy forces
Leliana – she is the spymaster of the Inquisition and utilizes her birds to divulge important information

After a War Table Operation has been completed, you will receive a notification on your screen. You can then return to War Table and collect your rewards which often include gold, influence, your party members’ approval, and different pieces of equipment.
