OK, I am reading about how tough the ogre is on top of the Tower of Ishal.  I'm just hoping to clap eyes on him one day because I am getting repeatedly creamed down on the first floor.

I can't get by those fire traps without getting my party decimated.  Whatever pitiful remnant makes it past the fire traps can't even make it alive back to where the three archers are sniping from.  If I kill 1 or 2 enemies before party wipe it's a great result.  Am I doing something stupid/missing something obvious?

walk in, trigger the fire traps, fall back to previous room and hide at the corner. about 3 will follow and u can cream them. then when the fires out, rush in and kill the rest. useful tactic for jst about every rpg there is.

For the ogre...I took me about 2 dozen trys but this is what i did...

First off my party consisted of. My PC, Alister?, The dog and the Mage you pickup outise the tower( redshirt but most needed !!!)



I set up my Tactics on the mage... (enemy in sight (ligtning bolt),Weaken, flame weapon)



I then charged the ogre with my PC's leaving the mage behind by our start..(H key) read the manual on how to make Party members stay in place instead of following..I also use pause.. ALLOT!!! to make sure my guys are doing exactly everything i want.. i pause probably after each mage bolt ensuring im on top of it..



THE mage begins to pelt the ogre at range.. I control my pc.. and get the ogres attention.. then.. RUN !!!! I ran in circles around the ogre while my dog and ALister(may be wrong name byt you know who im talking about, your grey warden budy at the begining) hacked at them.. whenever the ogre stopped chasing me i ran back in to get his attention...



SOmetimes the ogre gets ya in the chest punch of death... and ya have to start over or quickly jump into another pc.. and start running again.. kepp ding this and eventualy the Ogre goes down..

best strat i've seen is... get all your guys with range weapons and spread them throughout the room.. whatever person the ogre is aggroing is the one you need to be on running like a little girl in circles away from the ogre. when the ogre changes aggro, pause the game and send the character you are on to the edge of the room and switch to the new aggro target and start running again.. Ogres get MUCH MUCH easier a little farther into the game.

actually im a bit puzzled why so many people had trouble with the ogre. i personally restarted twice cos a char was knocked out and i dont like that. but if i was ok with a knockout, that means i cleared it in 1 try. (no knockouts = certain awards, theres one for main char but im waiting to see if thrs one for companions)



but i imagine it has alot to do with the char your playing. i use sword and shield warrior, so together with alistair and the dog, its quite a bit of stun btw us. so i fought him head on and when someone is dying, i pull him back, run about and mayb use a heal,



i can see how this fight would be a b&^%$ if your playing a rogue or mage though.

always amazes me when people say how easy it is. I had to use alot of healing salve things. Problem I had is if he gets a hold of your mage, he's toast (though this is before I read the codex entry on ogres saying to use stunning blows when they get a hold of someone- I figured you couldn't get out of it). The guy just does enormous amounts of damage, even with a sword and board character. I never tried the running around tactic though. I just straight up tried to do as much damage as I could as fast as I could. Problem is most of my abilities were resisted such as shield slam and pummel.

But Kudos on you guys for finding the right tactics. I just found I couldn't outrun the guy, but I think it's because I waited till my health got too low to run, and one more hit, and I was gone.

edit: P.S. as for the first floor, yes pull them back. I found I was getting slaughtered going in there- the mage is especially lethal. I actually successfully pulled 2 groups back, then went in and cleaned up the rest.

...aside from the good suggestions above, you can always adjust the difficulty setting.

The ogre took me @4 times on normal difficulty. When I beat him I drew agro (accidentally) with my wizard and KITED him in circles while the rest of my group beat him with arrows....then rinse and repeat :)

yea, he tends to resist shield slam. pummel normally worked for me though. try flanking him when you use the skill, it helps i think. the dogs stun also works most of e time.
his hold is lethal. only warriors with higher than about 60% life can survive(so keep using pots). when he starts walking towards your mage, run like e wind!

Shinji_87 answered my question right off - and duh, why didn't I think of that - but I also appreciate the ogre tips. And I'll check back for more later.



Thanks to all.

Shoot one of them with a bow or spell before they spot you, then fall back to another room and ambush them. If you cant shoot them before they see you then just run ahead with your tank and draw a few of them back. The darkspawn are to retarded to realize when there friends are getting hit/ attacking an enemy so you should only be a fighting a few at a time.
