Rocky Road

The Rocky Road is a random encounter in Dragon Age: Origins that occurs on the World map.

== Notes ==
* The Elven Scouts can use Rapid Shot and Critical Shot.
* Cleansing Aura is very effective for helping keep the Elven scouts alive.
* The shrieks can decimate the scouts. It's best to take them out first to save the scouts.
* The scouts appear to be wearing armor similar to the Ancient Elven Armor Set.
* This battle is particularly easy if you have Paralysis Explosion. Almost all darkspawn will be affected and due to their low rank, they go down very quickly under concentrated fire (shrieks notwithstanding.) Also, as all genlocks and hurlocks are archers, they will remain in the same spot, making them sitting ducks for AoE like Blizzard or Inferno.

* The Wooded Highway encounter will triggered instead if the Warden sided with the Lady of the Forest.
