the first dragon was very hard for me as my party was not that powerful. the second high dragon during the quest for the "holy grail".... slightly easier.
my party is my mage, alistar, lilian, and wynne the spirit healer <- she makes everything even easier with her group heal and revive
it's neat that they give 3 different romantic interests per gender (2 straight and 1 gay). and you have a chance to have threesome (with no cutscene).
for defending the redcliff village... looks like all the spoilers above gave all the tips to make everything easier. i manage to beat it with no death, it was very difficult for the militia, i had to pause often to get 'aggro' and heal the wounded. the knight up there had a boost becauseyou can use the oil from the warehouse to make a wall of fire
i like to complete everything and leave no stone unturned. was suprised that they even have two kissing cutscenes in redcliff village. of course, lilian didn't like it.
and yes, i did the mage tower first to get wynne, then completed the redcliff, holy grail, and i'm doing the dwarfs now.if you side with mage, you can use the mage's help to avoid killing conner or isode
This begs an interesting question. Can your party members die permentely in DA:O? If people here remember in BG, your party members can take massive damage and be cleaved on the spot (no resurrection) or be turned to stone or something and then shattered. Although frustrating, it adds an interesting element (and danger) to combat, especially with powerful foes.
