Ever since I started doing YouTube stuff in August of 2015, I wanted to record this particular moment in gaming. Ser Cauthrien and her army in Howe's estate is the Lord British Postulate of Dragon Age Origins. Unsurprisingly, Cauthrien has about a dozen archers at her beck and call, firing at you simultaneously. It is extremely hard to survive such a thing.

Of course, Most would simply surrender and begin the prison escape arc. The few who actually excel in this fight have a carefully thought out team at their beck and call, where each party member has a particular function. And I throw all of this aside, deciding to cheese the fight solo instead.

The combination of Blood Mage with Arcane Warrior is arguably one of the best and strongest tactics in this game. Not only do you gain the ability to cast from your hitpoints, but you are also able to engage in regular combat with weapons and armor as well as any tank! With a properly funded set of gear thanks to Potent Lyrium Potion profits, and enough Potent Health Poultices to heal you over and over, it is entirely possible to cheese it. And cheese it I did.

One strategy is to retreat to the nearby room, where only Cauthrien and a handful of knights will follow. From there, it is possible to slow them down with some grease, and then begin a barrage of spells. I decide to do this slowly instead of too quickly, as there's more fun in enjoying the hunt so to speak.

All in all, this video is both proof of my intense procrastinating ability to delay something for almost three years, and also proof that no matter how long I take to do something, if I say I will do it, then I truly mean it.
