How do you beat the ogre in dragon age?

How do you get past the ogre in dragon age, all my characters die either really fast or till there is just a little bit of him left... Im a rogue elf?How do you beat the ogre in dragon age?
First of all, pause a lot. It makes the fight much more manageable.



Like ShadowSan pointed out: if you have a mage with you, set them to heal team members; personally though, I prefer to set mages to heal team members when they are at %26lt; 50% health. Also, for all party members, set them to consume health poultices when their health is %26lt; 25%. And be sure to put these AI actions at the top of the list.



Other than that, watch out for the ogre's special attacks. When it prepares to charge, pause the game and manually issue move commands for all party members that are in front of the ogre. If it grabs one of your characters, use Shield Bash (Alistair should have the skill) to make it drop whomever it's grabbing. Therefore, when fighting ogres make sure Alistair (or whomever has the skill) doesn't use Shield Bash automatically. So the moment the ogre grabs someone, pause, and issue a command for somebody to perform a Shield Bash attack.



And lastly, if the ogre changes target and goes for anybody other than your tank, manually take control of the new target, and keep him/her moving.How do you beat the ogre in dragon age?
Rogues are really bad at beating ogres. You should switch to either Sten or Alister to fight it. Teach Morrigan heal and set her to use it when a character drops below 75% health. (You do this by going into Morrigan's stat/equipment page and pressing triangle.) If you do all that (especially the heal thing) you should be fine!How do you beat the ogre in dragon age?
if your a rouge try to go behind the ogre and attack, then pay close attention to everyones health and give them a health potion if there about to die, as well and give the mage the lyrium(blue potion). you might have to use all your health potions but thats ok
