Dragon Age: Origins Hints

Camp Supply Tips

  • 1 of 7: Loot the pile of sacks that are near the keeper, then look around in the campfire area for two scrolls and a book to read for codex entries, plus several containers to raid.
  • 2 of 7: Look south of the keeper to find a big skull on the side of an aravel that you can examine for a codex entry, then look west of the keeper to find a lootable sack near where Fenarel was,
  • 3 of 7: Go west a ways from the sack to find a statue to examine for a codex entry, then go south to find a wooden crate with a dusty scroll (codex entry) leaning against it near the hunters' aravel.
  • 4 of 7: Near that is Ilen. Talk to him and try to pass a persuasion check to get a free bow, then ask to see his store inventory. You probably won't be able to buy anything unless you sell off a few items first.
  • 5 of 7: Examine the big skull on the side of Ilen's aravel for a codex entry, then go east to find another codex-giving statue next to the corral.
  • 6 of 7: Enter the cooking pit and raid the locked chest (if you can), then head SE to find Merrill.
  • 7 of 7: Look on the other side of Merrill's aravel to find a note, then go down the path past Merrill to find a scroll next to a dead tree. Read both for codex entries.
