Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening Hints
How can I use the ballista against the ogre?
1 of 5: Have everyone hold their positions inside the house, then send your toughest warrior to a spot near the big ballista that's to the south.
2 of 5: Get him to stand next to the washtub so the armored ogre alpha will have to come over and stand right in front of the ballista to attack him.
3 of 5: Have one of your other characters (your healer mage if you have one) run up to the ballista and edge around to a spot behind it to be out of the ogre's way.
4 of 5: Keep control of that character and have him start firing the ballista as rapidly as possible. The ballista can't damage the ogre very fast, but it does have a good firing rate, and the damage will add up.
5 of 5: Keep healing your ogre-pounded warrior so the ogre won't have any reason to move, and you should be able to take him down eventually.
