Dragon Age: Origins Hints
The Darkspawn Invasion
1 of 10: Use the starting room's mouse hole to get to an Essence of Cunning, then return and go through the north door.
2 of 10: Move down the hallway slowly, waiting for hurlocks and genlocks to detect you and come running. If you don't charge ahead, you can fight them one or two at a time.
3 of 10: Eventually, you'll come to a flaming barrier across the hallway.
4 of 10: Fight the two flaming darkspawn in the room past the barrier, then go through the north door.
5 of 10: Past the next door is a room with some hurlocks in it, including a spellcasting emissary. Lure them back into the flaming darkspawn's room so you hopefully won't have to fight them all at once.
6 of 10: Their room's east door has another fire barrier over it.
