Why can't I use thousand cuts?
@deathssavior1577 As others have said, it is a focus based skill (like your rift ability), you must have at least one full focus bar to use it. Whether you're using a bow or daggers does not matter. Focus abilities are not intended to be able to be used often, you save it for when you really need it. There are also inquisition perks (from the war table) to increase your focus bars from 1 to 3.

There's an item upgrade that gives you an n% chance to cast thousand cuts at random, which is super powerful. I use that instead of the ability. 🙂
Edit: I was wrong. It was hidden blades and it's always 10% chance. It comes from masterworks: https://dragonage.fandom.com/wiki/Crafting_materials

PLEASE Help
You keep posting new threads, and don't check your previous ones.
The answer is you lack FOCUS to use the skill. Until you build enough FOCUS you can NEVER use the skill, and once FOCUS is used, you have to build it back to use the skill again.
Where can I get focus beside's cullen?
@deathssavior1577 Cullen can give you the perks to get the extra focus bars. Focus itself you get from fighting, it builds up over time. If you have the trespasser DLC, make sure you don't have the trial turned on that resets focus every time you go to a camp (trials are in difficulty options if I remember correctly).
@deathssavior1577 ; Maybe you should read the Codex entry on "Focus". Then you can stop making multiple threads about the same 'problem' that's just a result of you not understanding the game. (Even though it was explained in a pop-up early on.)
I have no been able to get my skill to work yet. Where can I find the focus in the codex, which number? I am trying to not post too many things.
