Dragon Age: Origins - Sneak Through Arl of Denerim's Estate

AntMag.NET

Alright, so you're heading into Arl of Denerim's Estate. It's a bit of a tricky spot, but don't worry, we'll get through it. First up, you'll want to chat with Erlina. She'll let you know that Howe's inside and that you need to be super careful.

As soon as you're done talking to her, head left. You'll find two Elfroot plants you can loot. Keep an eye out, though, because a Guard is going to spot you and call in some backup from behind. Take them down quickly!

After dealing with those soldiers, turn the corner. You'll find another Elfroot here. Go ahead and enter the courtyard. Once you're in the courtyard, check out the two Elfroots and the Deathroot you'll find, plus there's a sack to loot. Just as you're about to move on, Erlina will catch up to you.

Now, here's a choice: you can either go in loud and fight your way through all the guards, or you can go stealthy. The guide's going to walk you through the stealth option, which is generally the smarter move here. Erlina can actually help distract the guards when you get close, making your sneak attempt much easier.
