I am at the top of the tower and have tried 10 times and that ogre keeps kicking my butt, anyway I can kill it?

[JemmaProphet]

I ended up setting it down to Easy mode, beating it, then going back up to Normal. If you don't want to do that, you can go back and kill your way up through the tower saving all your healing potions for the final fight - but Easy mode is a lot simpler and less time consuming. I had no healers in my party and we were getting wailed on, so I gave up and changed the difficulty.

First, you need health potions. Set the AI to drink lesser health poutches when it gets to 50% health. Use your mage (if you have one) to give a weapon buff like fire enchant. Have Alastor tank the Ogre (or more like get beat by it) while you move behind for the flank attack. Getting that flank attack and prevent the enemy from flanking you is what this game is all about. On hard, you'll die fast if your flanked, even basic enemies will kill you if they can flank you. If your mage has any debuff spells or your fighters/rogue have any disabling talents then use them! Don't forget to use your talents effectively, they turn a hard battle into an easier on.



In the worst case, just run away from the ogre when he focuses on a character and have a mage cast the heal spell.

Have the mage in the party cast flame weapon. This will increase the damage you do considerably.

[tehkolva]

no offense to you for having trouble, but this fight was so quick i hardly remember it, what class are you playing, i was a dwarf warrior, and i killed that ogre in less than 2 minutes

[Wissenschaft]

What difficulty where you playing at? I sort of doubt the ogre would be that easy on hard.

[Eoweth]

Play on Easy Mode. It was pretty spectacular actually, the generic "Soldier" that was with me ended up doing this amazing slow motion bounding final blow thing. Way to go dude-I-never-really-got-to-know!

[Twitchmonkey]

For me, the secret was just a hell of a lot of micro-management. You just can't trust the AI to figure things out to an adequate level in tough battles like this, you having to constantly switch between your characters and decide what is the best course of action and position for them at that moment. This was a fairly challenging battle, but I really do prefer it to facing multiple enemies in larger areas. I managed to get past the ogre losing only one party member, but put me against a group of bandits with warriors flanking my party and archers peppering me with CC and extra ranged damage and I have to be really careful or it's going to be all over.

Booshed it first time on normal

[Talineth]

I agree, keep sloshing it out on Normal or whatever difficulty you're playing on. It felt really epic when I, after my 3 comrades had fallen, managed to kite the ogre down from 1/4 health as my mage, only using Arcane Bolt (this was after a fairly extended fight already).

For me, it was a mix of trial and error and pure luck. The ogre was literally chasing my NPC mage around the tower while Alistair chased the ogre; I ended up sending Alistair to block the ogre on one of the circuits around the tower, buying the wizard enough time to debuff and damage the ogre before it smashed him to bits, leaving the two of them (Alistair and the Ogre) with slivers of health. Then, Alistair acted first, stunning the ogre with his shield, then climbed onto the beast and stabbed the living hell out of that thing.

Satisfying beyond belief.

Beat this on normal on the X360 version. I was a mage, and only have the first level heal. I kept corpse bomb stacked on him, and if he was close enough I used my cone attacks on him. I also kept the guards alive for the battle by healing the when necessairy. I used the potions on myself if I needed healing after the ogre hit me.



Just keep at it, you'll beat him!

[billythegreat]

I managed to paralyze the ogre with the mage, and micromanage Alistair's shield stun when paralyze was over ( 7 sec CD, I think) , then i stunned the ogre with my rogue.About 66% of ogres health was gone when all this stuns .Then the ogre started to chase the mage, ranged damage took the rest. Anyway this was after 5 failed atempts, I tell you, mage's Paralyze is a winner .

DUDE!!!! I had the same strategy! Run around in circles, cast a spell, run around in circles, cast a sp- ZOMGZOMG He dead! Guerilla warfare FTW!!

[SeanMurphy2]

I did the same thing.



Ogre would chase one of my characters around the tower whilst the other characters chipped away at this health. Took a while though. Stun/Knockdowns/Slows would only occasionally work.



Also helps to have potions.



Maybe I could have more effectively used the mage spells.

[CodeKyuubi]

I played on Hard from the very beginning, no modifications. I just surrounded him and whacked him away to death, though I almost died at the very end because I ran out of potions. I was a warrior.

[Sharog]

i wasnt aware this beeing a hard fight at all, i had a ranged rogue build myself + 1 random ranged warrior + 1 random mage with no heal + alastair for this fight, on hard all i did was send in the tank and everyone else shoot him at the back. anytime i have potion on cd and aint 80%+ health i ran around abit.

[PatT2]

I have a ranged mage for myself, and I didn't have much difficulty. I doled out healing, and kept stunning the ogre. The others finished him off pretty quick. I just kept them healed and kept spamming the ogre with disorient (I think that didn't work) but the mind control thing did.



Having an active healer in the group seems to make a big difference, so it appears that will be my most active role. Crowd control, enemy disablement and healing. It was a quick fight, actually, but I'm not playing on hard. not the first time through...

[Darthain]

You fight the ogre toe to toe using your last healing potions (only had 1 light one standard) and gung ho go!!



My warrior was S&S with alistair the same, and the stand ins, only the main char was up at the end with <20 health striking the killing blow on hard mode. It was pretty epic. No cheap run in circles here, but no real healing either (as stand in mage did not have heal). I kept the stand in using his Xbow at range, using some of the debuffing archery abilities. Timed the stuns on shields so we weren't wasting them and went from there.

[Stebenator]

play on easy and then come to whine "its too easy" hehe I get it tomorrow I will try hard ( after 15 years I come here and say I killed first Ogre!!!) xD

[bottkager]

I play in normal, and it didn't caused me trouble. My main character is a mage, and spells worked just fine while one of tower guard attacked it from the front, Alister from the back and the archer from distance.

However later I needed to reconsider my tactics. Here brute force was enough.

[Rawlins85]

Tried a few time ...... got fed up ... i was acting as support as healing at first .... but useless the aoe would just drop the health down again in 2 hit..... so at the end just blow it up with all my spell fireball , cone of cold , fireblast .... muahahahah it die ( along with other party member ) XD... it take guts

[civildude892]

My main is a dwarf war going dual wield. Had the stand in mage cast flame weapons, alistair in the build aggro mode and the stand in warrior shooting ranged debuffs. Was a really easy fight, the stand in pulled aggro from alistair once and got wrecked, but as soon as he was down my dwarf jumped up on the ogre's chest and stabbity stabbed him to death. Was a pretty quick and easy fight on norm. I could have kept the stand in warrior alive, but I did not want to waste a potion on him.
