Dragon Age II Hints
How can I get past those traps?
1 of 5: The first one, with the big sets of spears coming out of the floor, is the worst one. If it hits someone, he'll be thrown back and given an injury.
2 of 5: Have all of your party members hold position a ways back from that trap, then pick one to cross the trap first.
3 of 5: You see those wooden beams that are just to the left (north) of the spear trap? You can't walk across them, but there is a very narrow space between them and the spears that you can maneuver a character down. To be on the safe side, have a character cross right after all the spears lower.
4 of 5: Once a character makes it safely across, move him up against the back (east) wall, where he'll be safe from both traps. You can then repeat the process with another character.
5 of 5: Or better yet, move the first character who crosses down to where he can hit the "disarming switch" lever. That won't appear to do anything at first, but wait a bit and the traps will both deactivate.
