Dragon Age: Origins Hints

North Path Tips

  • 1 of 6: Start down the northern path, ready to fight some bears that charge you.
  • 2 of 6: Look for an elfroot plant past them, then move forward slowly until you can see an ogre in the distance.
  • 3 of 6: There are two ogres in the ruins ahead, but you can fight them one at a time if you're careful. Remember to keep most of your characters back so they can use ranged attacks.
  • 4 of 6: Look for a deathroot and some lootable rubble near the ruins' entrance after killing the first ogre, then go in and finish off the second one.
  • 5 of 6: Search the ruins for a deathroot plant, two piles of bones, some lootable rubble, a locked chest, and a charred corpse. Also, check the east-side path that leads to the hermit's camp for an elfroot plant.
  • 6 of 6: There's a gravestone in the ruins that you can use to start on the "The Mage's Treasure" optional quest.
