    Sexy issues.

    DLC-related armor (and I'd assume other items) are missing upon import.

    Though I hear from some sources that this isn't a bug, but a feature. Too bad those robes were what made my mage so badass (they were the ones that boost blood magic ability).

    Is there any worthwhile armor to gain from the DLC? Theres the King's armor but thats still only ''red steel'' tier so it can easily be replaced. 
     
    EDIT: And right, reading again I noticed you mention your blood mage robe =P. That from the Wardens Keep I take it? Never came across it during Ostagar and the Shale mission.

    @Abyssfull: Yup, from the Warden's Keep. That combined with the Blood Ring means blood magic only takes away a fraction of your hit points.
     
    In my immediate scouring of the Bioware forums, I read that they don't intend to fix it since you get better equipment later on anyway.

    Well, it's especially annoying early on. I don't have any armor, and I'm not finding any (then again, I'm only about 30 minutes in). It's tough surviving as a mage without any armor bonuses. Getting my ass handed to me by small groups of Darkspawn. Of course, that could be because I'm real rusty at playing.
     
    Edit: the general polish on DLC is severely lacking.

    Lots and lots of bugs in the first few minutes of the game. Others include not being able to pick up any of the new flower items until I imported my character a second time and weird death animations (an Ogre died while he was still standing, animating as if alive but standing at a 90 degree angle from the ground). This is a trend I've noticed throughout the whole of gaming, but that's a discussion for another time. A lot of these issues seem related to stuff added through other DLC they've released though.

    There's mod that lets you use all your DLC items, but you still don't get the DLC skills tho.
