The Short List is an Inquisition perk under "Connections" in Dragon Age: Inquisition.

Information[]

The Short List unlocks "special offers" in the form of unique or otherwise unavailable items from most merchants. Items are selected randomly from a hidden list each time the map is entered. High quality vendors like Canyon Merchant in the Hissing Wastes or the Suledin Keep Merchant have a large rare loot table, meaning that it may take several attempts to get the item you are looking for. See the Exploits section below for detailed description on how to get a better chance of getting the item you are looking for.

After obtaining this perk and completing both Here Lies the Abyss and Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts, speak with Bonny Sims to unlock the war table operation Not So Bonny Sims.

Items that can be bought using this perk are listed below.

Exploits[]

  • To reset a vendor either exit the game client and reload or fast travel from the region to another and return. However, this does not guarantee the item being searched for will be available and several attempts may be required.

Bugs[]

  • The Short List Inquisition perk seems to have an unexpected interaction with the war table operation Opening the Roads. Normally the merchant obtained for completing this operation is invisible, however if the operation is completed beforehand the merchant will appear once the perk has been obtained. If the perk is acquired prior to completing the operation, then the merchant will remain invisible indefinitely.
