Dragon Age: Origins Hints
Guard Combat Tips
1 of 8: The first three guards are in the NE corner of the room just to the east of you.
2 of 8: Have your party move into the small side room that's just NE of the one with the wooden crate in it, then send one character through the doorway and straight north to get those guards' attention.
3 of 8: Run him quickly back to the party, then wait for guards to come to you. Hopefully, only one (or maybe none) will come in from the next room to join the fight.
4 of 8: After you kill the guards who came after you, you should be able to stand and heal.
5 of 8: Stay in your little niche room and lure more guards in from the east room a few at a time.
6 of 8: When you're forced to enter the east room, watch out for a leghold trap that's not far past its doorway.
7 of 8: After that room is clear, there's one last group of guards (including two rogue mages) to take care of. They're waiting for you at the path split to the east.
8 of 8: Keep everyone in the usual place, and send one character out to lure those guards in a few at a time.
