Dragon Age: Origins Paralysis Runes make life for melee characters and for the party in general, much easier. In my first run, I pretty much ignored the Rune system since I was more focused on spell combos with my Elf Blood Mage. However I’ve played two other characters since finishing the game. I’ve tried a dual-wielding warrior and I’m now playing a melee rogue.
Initially I was using mostly damage dealing runes however after finding out how powerful the Paralysis runes are, they’re now my top priority. The rune has a chance of paralyzing opponents which helps you take a breather from the damage that the opponent can dish out. It also helps you to deal even more damage, especially if you’re a rogue.
I don’t know if this is a bug, but apparently the rune also works against bosses. I remember making mince meat out of the High Dragon in my third run with my rogue, haha.
Anyway, here are where I found Paralysis Runes:
Grand Master Paralysis Rune: Denerim Store (16 gold)
Expert and Master Paralysis Runes: I’m not 100% sure but I think I found them in the Deep Roads during the Orzammar quest line.
Novice and Journeyman Paralysis Runes: Cultist Dungeon in the Urn of Sacred Ashes quest line. Just make sure to loot all the opponents and chests.
There you go. Enjoy!
