Unable to load save file after DLC removed

So about a day ago I bought the Spoils of the Qunari DLC for my qunari mage, and after 5 minutes realized the armor was bugged and makes

my character have dark head and light body...

So I went to EA support to ask a refund, which to their credit I was promptly given, so I said thanks and kept playing.

Today when I tried loading my game and I get an error saying I need the DLC to load my save file. My guess is I still had armor/schematics/something still in my inventory. Appearantly Origin didn't update immediately and I kept playing withe the DLC enabled.

I can load an older save file I can load but that several hours earlier I'd rather not have to replay. Is there a workaround this?

    @aceofw Hmmm, I think one that might work would be to load the save on a system which has the DLC, then delete the content, then re-save and transfer back to your system. 

    Do you have access to a version of the game with the DLC? If not, try PMing me the save in question, I'd like to determine whether this will work or not. 

    The saves are the timestamped .DAS files located at My Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age Inquisition\Save

    Hi david, thanks for the quick answer.

    I dont have access to another computer with the DLC, I'll try PMing you.

    Thank you for your help

    Edit: How do I attach a file to a PM?

    @aceofw Hey, unfortunately you can't directly attach them to a PM, upload the file to any hosting site then place the link in the PM. 

    Thanks!
