Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening Hints

Salvage Operation

  • 1 of 6: This quest will appear on the private's job board after you finish "A Daughter Ransomed" and "Far Afield," and travel to Amaranthine and back. (NOTE: This entire quest is all stuck in under the one objective of "Salvage goods from the shipwreck," so these hints won't have an objective list.)
  • 2 of 6: After quicksaving, use the world map to travel to the new Anselm's Reef area.
  • 3 of 6: You're fairly likely to have an encounter along the way featuring randomly chosen enemies and loot. Some are a lot harder than others, so quickrestore and try again if you get one that's too hard.
  • 4 of 6: When you arrive, kill the three scavengers that run to attack you.
  • 5 of 6: Move on past them to find another scavenger and a blood mage. They may not have seen you yet if you kept back while fighting the first three scavengers.
  • 6 of 6: After they're all dead, loot the eight crates (one of which is off by itself near the shipwreck) and the four scavengers to get bags of salvaged trade goods, which you can sell to any merchant for 2 gold each.
