originally posted by HonestGamerCertain quests contribute towards the main plot like the following cannot be skipped:-
Spoiler:
1) All the missions that are related to the decision on the Dwarven King.
2) Ridding the Dalish Elves with their wolves problem.
3) Rescuing Arl Eamon by getting the ashes.
So only quests that are given by NPC's that have no role over the main plot can be skipped.

Spoiler:
4. Saving the Circle Tower (Broken Circle quest) from Abominations
On your Saving the Dalish from Wolves, you actually can save the wolves and the Dalish, or have the Dalish killed by choosing the wolves.
