Archery in Dragon Age: Inquisition is an Ability Tree of the Rogue class.
Experts in this style are masters of ranged combat. They can avoid enemies that attempt to close, put arrows or bolts through multiple foes, and even unleash explosive shots to devastating effect.
The Archery-trained Rogue is an expert at dealing devastating damage from afar. Masters of evasion and sneaking, the Archer dances along the fringes of combat, supporting their teammates with well-placed shots which might pierce multiple enemies, or even firing explosives to obliterate those in their team's path.
