    @Metalideth: You could have done that mission during the game though. It's kinda dumb. You can't go anywhere other than that one area if you didn't do it during the game. (I don't have Warden's Keep, just Stone Prisoner so I dont' know about that)

    If you resume the game with the character you beat it with, it starts you out in an open field with no weapons and an exit that takes you back to your camp site.
     
    All active quests are gone aside from DLC. 
     
    Really, I recommend saving before you got to Redcliffe Castle after the Landsmeet and playing from there if there is anything you want to do after you start the final battle.
     
    Let me be perfectly clear, once you enter Redcliffe Castle after the Landsmeet, there is no going back. You will not be able to complete any quests you may have and any quests you won't be able to accept any quests you may not have before then.
     
    All you can play on a post game save is DLC and only DLC.

    25 is a hard cap not a soft cap. There is a way to get infinite XP in the game, but at lvl 25 you don't get any more XP. You are right however that if you play it legitimately you'll never reach that cap. And to those who thing it's a low cap, you get quite a lot every time you level. In D&D you get an attribute point every 4 levels or something like that, here you get 3 points every level and you get a skill point pretty much every level plus you can buy tomes that give you more so you can pretty much max out your character.

    The manual says there is no hard cap. So i don't know why they would have implemented one after writing the manual.

    Maby the XP recieved for the exploitable action is mitigated to 0 at lvl25?
