I recently encountered a game-crippling bug that prevented Dragon Age 2 from continuing its primary plot.

In Act 3 there is a quest called "Best Served Cold," which pits you against some random Mages. You're told to search their corpses for a letter or notes after they're dead, but a small handful of people can never loot that letter. If the note cannot be looted, the player <i>cannot</i> progress in Act 3.

I found the fix for this.

1) Download and install the additem.zip patch from here.
2) Enable the Dragon Age II console.
3) Once in-game, open the console and issue this command: runscript additem mag311im_bsc_notes.uti

The correct item will be added to your inventory, and you will have the opportunity to proceed.

Enjoy!

    you're already running patch 1.03 I assume.

    I played through the game with 1.00 and never had an issues, but good to know

    The issue appeared for me in patch 1.02, but postings from others coincided with 1.00 and 1.01 as well.

    I patched to 1.03 hoping to fix the issue, but it did not work.
