Elves at Large Dragon Age II Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Received from: reading the message on the Chanter's Board [Hightown - Order Courtyard]
To activate the quest you have to get into interaction with the Chanter's Board which can be found at the yard of the Order in Hightown #1 (M3, 17). Read the message titled Elves at Large #2. It is worth adding that the message will appear on the table only if during the previous phrase of the game titled Wayward Son you made Feynriel go back to the Ring. Click on Accept to start hunting for elf Mages of blood.
Now you can read the area and from the map of the world choose a travel to localization [Wounded Coast]. After reaching the place prepare to eliminate a group of pirates, who may attack you #1. The same situation will repeat itself in other parts of localization, but I will not give you exact bearings because they depend on your previous visits on the shore. Choose the path leading through the northern part of this localization #2.
As soon as you can turn north #1, and after few moments you should reach a campsite where you meet the Blood Mages and the group of mercenaries (M28, 14). During the conversation #2 you can choose two opposite options:
- support the mercenaries (right upper dialogue option)
- support the Mages (right middle dialogue option)
If you picked mercenaries as your allies, you will have to fight the Blood Mages. At the beginning I suggest to eliminate hypnotizing Blood Mage #1. Then start eliminate the Blood Mages' controller and other Blood Mages #2. Watch out for the spells casted by the enemies because they will want to regain their life powers at your expense.
At the end eliminate less dangerous apostates #1, which doesn't mean you should treat them less seriously. After winning the battle, you will see a short conversation with the captain of mercenaries #2, who, as he promised you, will share half of the reward with you - 2 sovereigns.
If you picked Blood Mages as your allies, you will have to fight with mercenaries. In this case it is better to eliminate the captain of mercenaries #1, to stop him from encouraging his team to fight. During the fight watch out for a stronger officer of the mercenaries #2.
At the end eliminate regular mercenaries #1, who won't be difficult to defeat. After winning the fight, you will see a scene of conversation with one of the Blood Mages #2. In this case for completing the quest you will get 1 sovereign.
