Dragon Age II Hints

Reigning It In

  • 1 of 7: To get this quest, you'll need to kill off four groups of slave hunters in the Docks region at night. See the Docks at Night tour to learn where they all are.
  • 2 of 7: Go to the east end of the eastern Warehouse District to find an entrance to a run-down alley.
  • 3 of 7: As soon as you enter the alley, have everyone hold position, then run them up the nearby stairs.
  • 4 of 7: Send one character out to lure slave hunters in a few at a time, and watch for Jess "Leashmaster" Varvel to appear a ways to the north.
  • 5 of 7: When she does, get everyone after her to finish her off quickly, then kill the rest of the slave hunters.
  • 6 of 7: Before you leave, search the area for a lootable corpse, a sack, and a crate, plus any leftover slave hunters.
  • 7 of 7: Go to the Hanged Man pub in Lowtown and talk to "A Friend" in one of the southern rooms for a gold and XP reward. If this is the ninth gang-killing reward you've claimed (there are three in each act), you'll get an extra reward that includes several gold coins and two magic weapons.
