Arcane Feathers is a companion quest in the Mark of the Assassin DLC for Dragon Age II if Anders is brought along as a companion.
An unusual bird feather has been found. See if there are more.
Acquisition[]
This quest appears in Hunting Grounds - West in the middle of the map. There will be a Mabari barking up at a tree.
Walkthrough[]
There are a total of three feathers you need to find.
1. Hunting Grounds - West - In the middle of the map where a Mabari is barking up a tree.
2. Chateau Haine Interior - On the left chest in the Gate puzzle room.
3. The Retreat - Right once you enter through the Crack in the Wall.
Result[]
Once the third feather has been found a treasure cache will be marked on the map. Its location is found in the Mountainside Path after you first encounter the Tal-Vashoth Leader (if you went with Tallis).
Rewards[]
Bugs[]
The Arcane Feather at the Gate puzzle room might not be obtainable. If it's not sparkling to show you can pick it up, have Hawke stand on the tile in front of the left chest and Tallis standing on the other tile in front of the right chest at the same time. This should unlock both the exit and the chest so you can pick up the feather.
