This dlc was decent.  Much better than Warden's keep which, if I remember correctly, was only about 30 minutes of game play

What sword was your character using?

It's my understanding that the PS3 release of Return to Ostagar is still pending an announcement, 360 and PC have been released though.

I like how the big bridge in that harrowing battle still only has the two chunks taken out of it that you saw happen at the beginning of the game. Either "wonderful" art direction or lazy slopped together DLC (of course, probably the second).
 
That's exactly why I hate most DLC.

Man... you've never played a healer in any mmo have you? You should look up some "Priest/Druid healing in raids" screenshots from WoW or any other mmo like that and see what others have to deal with.

You can also get Duncan's Sword and Dagger. Also Calain's sword and shield give a bonus.

Its part of the Warden's Keep DLC.  Most get the 2H one since there are a few 1H fairly similar while the 2H version is much better than other 2H weapons.

Let Vinny play the quicklook, its not a walkthrough video, where you have to chime in every few seconds to criticize how he plays the game.Youre always too focused on completing in-game objectives that you lost the meaning of qls..Why do you always feel the need to have your hand in everything even if you aren't the player?. If it wasn't for the rest of the crew I would not even come to this site at all, youre that much of an asshole.Based on all the videos ive seen for the past 2 years, I don't know how the other guys there could stand working with you, I couldn't. I would sooner choke the living hell out of you for giving me shit.

 Hmmm, are you playing on easy or is it because you finished the game and your party is buff? That looked way too easy, even on medium you'd get slaughtered by not pausing the game often enough to coordinate your party. Just wondering if the DLC provides any challenge.

I love that Vinny throws away valuable salable items while leaving the cheapest stuff. Oh well, doesn't really matter, he's in a post game dlc so he can't do anything anyway.

yup it looks like he's on easy. I played the DLC on medium and it was a fun challenge so don't worry about it being too easy...
 
It's a pity that they played Dragon Age like Fable here. I know he's trying to keep things more 'entertaining' but tbh it would be more entertaining for me if he played the game properly
