Sharp Little Pinpricks Dragon Age II Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Received from: eliminating a proper number of Sharps Highwaymen [Lowtown]
Quest can be activated by eliminating a proper number of Sharps Highwaymen lurking around the localization [Hightown]. Naturally the enemies will appear only if you explore the area at night. Typical places where you come across enemies are: market, back of the inn The Hanged Man #1, elves' meeting ground, living area #2 and area of blacksmiths. Every time take care of your teammates, eliminate the archmen first and be prepared to eliminate the enemies who will appear later.
If you eliminate a proper number of enemies, on the screen you will see information #1 concerning their headquarters. The entrance to localization [Lowtown - Slum] is situated at the backs of inn The Hanged Man #2 (M13, 7), between two eastern exits from this area.
It is worth saving the game because inside you will be immediately attacked by a group of Sharps Highwaymen led by Ignacio Strando #1 (M14, 6). I suggest to deal with regular bandits first , especially with weak archmen. Attack Ignacio after eliminating them #2. In the first phrase of fight enemies will run from the side rooms, among other characters - archmen. After eliminating all enemies you MUST check the body of Ignacio, because there are many important objects like bow Dwarf Pricker, Gloves of Bloody Butcher and Clogs from the Lowtown.
After leaving the headquarters of bandits and official end of the quest consider going to the localization at night [Lowtown - The Hanged Man]. In one of southern rooms of inn you will meet a woman marked as Friend. Click on her to get bonus awards (2 sovereigns).
