I've had to do that on a few Final Fantasy's and have developed very astute save tendencies.

The huge dragon at the end right?

I had a hard time with him too, make sure you use those huge ballista's sitting around...and also summon the 4 waves of troops you have.

I tried just straight up fighting him but couldnt even come close.

how many health poultices did you use?

I have 2...and no elfroot.

**creativeinsomnia** · 04-07-2010, 03:01 PM

None, I never really used health poultices. I had my healer(that super old woman, cant remember her name now) sit back and heal all the time. You need a lot of the mana potions for her though...so hopefully you have those.

i'd be interested to know how your team was setup (mages, warriors, etc) and tactic slots.

I'm on level 20 with my main Mage/Grey Warden, and i have Morrigan, Lilliana and Alistair.

**lefteyewilly** · 04-07-2010, 11:31 PM

crisis averted. i thought i was further along ...met up with the little retarded kid who sold me some dope-ass shiz.

**creativeinsomnia** · 04-08-2010, 01:12 AM

I beat the game a while ago, and I cant remember all of my tactic slots. I do know that for the majority of the game, I used my Dwarf, the older mage woman, Sten, and the elf theif (who freakin turned on me halfway through the game and I killed him). Once the elf dude died, I used Lilliana.

I used Morrigan for a while early on but I found it frustrating because she would cast her big freeze spell and freeze all my guys as well...so I switched her out with the healing mage who just sat back and healed/protected during every battle. It seemed to work out pretty well and I never had too much difficulty as long as she had mana potions to plow through.

The whole tactics slot thing got really frustrating for me though because it seemed like it didnt really work like it was supposed to and I lost a few battles because of that. Switching to the other characters manually was too hard during a battle too.

**lefteyewilly** · 04-08-2010, 12:36 PM

not to beat a dead horse here, but i finally got to the archdemon last night, and on my first try i came SOO close to taking it down. The only thing that got me was the hoards of shrieks and lilliana was in that stupid frozen spell that you can't get out of. Otherwise, woulda done it in one shot

It's actually a fun battle rather than frustration as most of the other boss battles have been.

about time.

**jAQUAN** · 04-09-2010, 04:17 PM

Hey if your damn beta code would have worked I'd know all the tracks by now.

**silverx2** · 04-09-2010, 04:34 PM

i dunno why they sent me an email with false codes:-/

**FlashLackey** · 04-09-2010, 07:00 PM

I play the lego series with my son. They're surprisingly good. Lego Indiana Jones 2 is a legit sequel.

I'm hooked on Tropico 3 lately. Nothing innovative really. But, if you're into that type of game it's good to have one on 360.

Is Dragon Age worth it?

Modern Warfare or Battlefield? Both?

Are these IGN ratings BS?

Depends on your thoughts on RPG's. I for one rarely play them, last one i played was final fantasy X on PS2, and DAO got me hooked. I get bored with games very quickly and very often, this one was engrossing enough (to me) that i have a compulsion to finish it, no matter how tedious certain aspects of the game are. Once i beat it, i'm sure no matter what the ending will be, i will be satisfied. What other thing can you buy for $60 that gives you 70 hours of enjoyment?

**FlashLackey** · 04-09-2010, 08:33 PM

Cool. I do like RPGs. So, I think I'll get that one.

Watching IGN reviews. Seems like there are a bunch of highly rated xbox live arcade games. Any recommendations there?

**jAQUAN** · 04-09-2010, 11:48 PM

You might like Toy Soldiers if you ever liked the battlefield games.

**FlashLackey** · 04-10-2010, 02:15 AM

That's the one I do happen to have already. Love it.

**lefteyewilly** · 04-11-2010, 12:52 AM

ANNNNNNDDDDDD.....done. finally beat DA:O. phew. I'm never putting it back into my system again.

**silverx2** · 04-11-2010, 01:32 AM
