Dragon Age: Origins Hints

Captured

  • 1 of 12: NOTE: This entire quest is all stuck in under the one objective of "Escape Beraht's clutches," so these hints won't have an objective list.
  • 2 of 12: The first thing to do is figure out how to get out of your cell.
  • 3 of 12: Right-click on Leske's cell door a couple of times to release him if he's not already free, then loot the guard's corpse and the "confiscated belongings" chest.
  • 4 of 12: Equip your best armor and weapons on your main character and Leske, then go through the nearby door and east down the passage to another door.
  • 5 of 12: Past it is a room with several of Beraht's thugs in it. Run in far enough to get them to come after you, then retreat back through the doorway to hopefully avoid getting overwhelmed. (This works best if you select the entire party so Leske will retreat when you do.)
  • 6 of 12: While waiting for your health to regenerate, search the thugs, plus the chest and two barrels in their room. After that, head west to find more thugs to fight.
  • 7 of 12: Look for two lootable barrels in the next thug room, then go down the passage to find another thug room. It has a trap just past its entry door, so try to stay back from it while luring thugs to you.
  • 8 of 12: After they're down and your health has fully regenerated, go across the trap and check the crate and four barrels in the room for lots of good stuff.
  • 9 of 12: Past the next door, check the south passage for some thugs and a locked treasure chest. If your main character can't unlock it, switch to Leske and have him do it.
  • 10 of 12: Past the door to the east is Beraht's chamber.
  • 11 of 12: Go through the door in the NE corner of Beraht's chamber to quickly reach an exit to Beraht's shop.
  • 12 of 12: Use the door that leads to the Commons area to start up a series of cut-scenes that'll move you on to Ostagar.
