Anyway, I get to the Rescue the Queen quest, and I'm having a time with the guards in the dungeon. I start a battle and two rooms full empty. Then a dog overwhelms Morrigan *through the wall*, and, while I'm having fun watching people get frozen and fall to the ground, she dies. She gets resurrected by Wynne, but then Wynne dies. Ow. I can't remember the last time I had 2 characters die during a battle. That made me stop slouching in my chair.
So, we make it through the dungeon, doing better this time, no one else is killed, and reach Arl Howe. I was hoping to give him more of a tongue lashing, but the conversation is brief. I was not given the opportunity to spit in his face, but fortunately that came later.
The battle begins, and well, my group is level 19/18, so I guess that's sort of overkill. The 2 mages are Crushing Prisoned, and to make a short story even shorter, everyone gets dropped but Howe. He then receives Death Mark, Cone of Cold (which he resists), Winter's Grasp (which freezes him ... LOL), and lastly Death Hex. From here, it is over rather quickly. I was kind of surprised. I was expecting an orange Blood Mage to be with him or something.
Well, while that may have been somewhat underwhelming, I was about to have one of the most exciting fights in the game. I went back to the main floor of the estate and took one step out the little entry way. About 10 guards attacked me and 10 more came streaming down the hall. My group was still in the entry way, which was just a tiny room.
The guards piled in and started wailing on us. Weapons and magic was flying all over the place. The guards started falling and bodies started mounting. More guards were pouring through the entrance. I said "come on in, there's room for all!" =D Most of the time, I couldn't even see what was going on in there. Oh, there were dogs too. I hate dogs. I always focus on them first.
LOL
So, finally, they were all dead. All destroyed. Collecting the loot took a while.
That was great. This is why I play RPGs.
