Dragon Age: Origins

Mages are not just magic casters, Once you have acquired the Arcane Warrior style you can easily exchange the strength of armor and weapons to wield or wear them for Magic. You can now use spells and a sword. Do not worry about taking physical damage because of the armor. You do not have to keep your distance and use all the spells desired and still get up close with your enemies. Note: This ability is obtained in the "Nature Of The Beast" quest with the Dalish Elves. You must go into the temple and find a vial that seems odd. A short cinematic starts and it speaks to you. After a long series of questioning, it offers to pass on its talents of an arcane warrior to you and your party in exchange for its freedom.

When you fight the arch-demon in the last battle you will soon find that it has a massive amount of health. To get good damage to the demon call in whatever allies you have and use them as blocks for your mage or tank and let them die in favor of your own followers. Also use the ballistas - they will deal from 50 to 120 damage on average with every bolt. Use the advanced key and have your followers hold positions by two of the ballista and quickly switch between them to pin the arch-demon down. You will get a moderate amount of health taken down in a good amount of time. It is a good idea to have a rogue with you in case the ballista jam but on casual you do not have to worry about it. Use cold spelly on your mages and cold weapons on your tank and warrior.

In Orzammar, there is a man in the Chamber of Assembly by the name of Vartag. Speak with him about earning Lord Behlen's trust. He should give you papers that state that Lord Harrowmont sold the same piece of land to two people. After he gives you the papers, go to the Shaperate in the Diamond Quarter. It is at the opposite end of the entrance to the Commons. Once you are in the Shaperate, talk to the Shaperate and give him the papers. He will tell you that they are forged. After that, return to Vartag and tell him the papers are forged. After you have done this, there is a Persuade line in which you can say. You can do this as many times as desired. Note: It helps if you have a high Coercion skill or high Cunning. Also, if you made a Dwarf Commoner, your sister will take you directly to Vartag once you have entered the Diamond Quarter.
