Well played, Sir.

Ha ha, Pull failed:

That "dragon" in the Forest Ruins was ridiculous. Orange marked? Even drakes were more tough than her.

On normal difficulty, one tank taunting all the time (to prevent Dragon from targeting other characters) + Force Fielding the tank while your mages are blasting the Dragon, works. I've tested this tactic five times succesfully against the High Dragon. Against Flemeth, I had to do things the old fashioned way because I couldn't bring Morrigan... it's possible Flemeth is smarter than the High Dragon. I'll have to test it when I'm replaying with a PC mage. Immunity against knockdown is recommended; also stay at the flank of the dragon all the time, to prevent the tank from being grabbed or slapped by the tail. Of course, fire resistance is important... going into battle with Drake scale armour + would help too.

Why is there blood splatter after fighting shades/wraiths/demons? Or any undead for that matter? Anyway, I've finished Brazilian Forest. Juggernaut armour is looking pretty bad-ass.

Grab & Slap is the reason why you need the tank at the flank always. Put tank at the flank, let the tank taunt, then cast Force Field on tank & laugh as the dragon keeps attacking your invulnerable tank while your mages are tearing it apart. At least, this is the strategy that works on Normal difficulty. Maybe dragon is smarter on Hard/Nightmare?

High Magic & Willpower might also affect it, along with critter's physical resistance maybe?

I have the impression Cleanse Area removes effects/buffs on enemies only. I encountered a mage with anti-magic shield and a lot of other bruhaha, and Cleanse Area removed everything of him.

It happened to me a few times that upon selecting a character after I had positioned him/her somewhere away from an enemy, the character would teleport right next to the enemy. Not fun when you're trying to kill a dragon. That said, I hope someone will make a mod that removes or changes the underwear armor female Dalish elves are wearing. It looks ridiculous.

I finally made it to the Brazilian Forest. Also, maybe PC shouldn't have slept with Alistair. He became sappy overnight.

For epic lulz, combine Glyph of Paralysis with Glyph of Repulsion.

^Wolves may be the most powerful enemies below level 10. They always come in hordes and have Overwhelm. And I noticed some suckas (drakes) even manage to succesfully Overwhelm my PC tank even with Shield Wall + Shield Mastery (or whatever it is called, it is supposed to make you immune to knockdown).

Force Field + Crushing Prison, most likely.

I think the biggest Win spell of them all is Force Field. I use it all the time to disable yellow/orange marked boss enemies, then clear out the mooks (I haven't come across anything yet that managed to resist it). It lasts for around half a minute, which is an eternity. It's also useful to send a tank into a horde, let the tank Taunt, then cast Force Field on the tank and unleash some arcane mayhem.

I found a lot of use in this one: IF Morrigan:snarky comment -> Wynne:Cast Stonefist on Morrigan

Compare Lothering's look with the opening village in The Witcher, or Denerim's look with Vizima's. 'Nuff said.

The Dwarven shtick reminded me more of the political bruhaha in Frank Herbert's Dune series. Particularly House Harkonnen. Also, the finale of the Human Noble Origin reminded me of how House Atreides got wiped out. But that's just me.

Sparing or not sparing Marjosomething wouldn't matter. It's dark fantasy. Spare her - and she returns later. Don't spare her - and run into her contingency plan.

Enslaving Orlais with necromancy blood magic?

Entering the room in Spirit form and casting Crushing Prison, then using Golem form was the way I did it.

I think doing her companion quest is mandatory for something to happen.

Ehh... is Morrigan supposed to be able to solo a High Dragon?

I'm sick of these moments where one is supposed to enter a conspicuously large room and get ambushed by a horde of enemies, but instead one tries to use some tactics and hold back the entire party save Imoen-chick who is supposed to lure some mooks with her bow. But instead, what then happens is that the 'ambush' triggers and enemies literally appear out of nowhere next to the rest of your party.
