BSN user Haderach recently rolled out a release candidate for his Google Chrome browser extension, DAL Gift Manager. This tool was specifically developed to streamline the process of both sending and receiving gifts to and from your Google+ Dragon Age: Legends friends circle. If you keep a hefty roster to take care of the social aspect of this browser game, this tool could potentially save you from repetitive strain injury (all that clicking) while also saving you a lot of time.

Dragon Age: Legends Skill Builder

This Dragon Age: Legends Skill Builder is still in an early, but very functional state. I've written a brief introduction to the key features after the break. Read More

DAL Skill Builder update alpha 3
This update to my Dragon Age Legends Skill Builder includes the cumulative skill data changes from all of the DAL patches (0.4.17970, 0.4.18003, 0.4.18692) since the last Skill Builder update.
Additionally, it does the following:
- handles summarizing skill upgrades that confer more than one type of bonus per upgrade
- fixes the javascript code for Firefox 7
- displays the mana cost of all activated skills
- displays the stats of Mage summons as text instead of images (for future fiddling)
