Dragon Age II Hints

Search and Rescue

  • 1 of 10: You can get this quest from Mistress Selby's board after you finish the "The Underground Railroad" quest.
  • 2 of 10: Travel to the Wounded Coast on the Free Marches map and go to the northern end of its west branch. (See the Wounded Coast tour if you haven't yet explored and looted the area.)
  • 3 of 10: Enter the Bounty Hunter Getaway cave, then move forward to come under attack from several wimpy bounty hunters.
  • 4 of 10: Finish them off, then look for a lootable corpse at the west end of the area before going down the stairs on the east side.
  • 5 of 10: Park your party near the base of the stairs, then send your rogue slowly through the reinforced doorway to see if he can spot and disarm the trap that's just past it.
  • 6 of 10: Even if he can't, he can lure in most of the bounty hunters in the next room a few at a time, including the assassins and the leader. After you lure in all that you can, send your rogue in again to either disarm or trigger the trap.
  • 7 of 10: If he triggers it, wait until it disperses, then send him (or whoever) in to see if there are any more bounty hunters to lure out.
  • 8 of 10: When the area is clear, go in and watch for more traps while getting up onto the wooden platform where the captured apostate is.
  • 9 of 10: Talk to her to be counted as rescuing her, then look for loot before going back the way you came and exiting the cavern.
  • 10 of 10: Go to the nearest map exit and travel to the Docks region on the Kirkwall Day map, then go talk to Mistress Selby to get your reward.
