10 Open World Locations You Shouldn't Enter

8. Leontine's Ring - Dragon Age: Inquisition

The final, ultimate challenge of vanilla Dragon Age: Inquisition is the easternmost area of Emprise Du Lion, in which you'll find the three hardest dragons in the game. This whole area should be considered off-limits until near the end of the game, even post-finale. But the third and final area should especially be saved for until you are about as strong as you can be.

At the bottom of Leontine's Ring, you'll find a sleeping Highland Ravager, the strongest dragon in the game. This dragon will not attack you until you attack first, so there is literally no one to blame but yourself if you get into a fight with this thing. 

These three dragons will demand everything of you if you take them on. The only reason they're so far down the list is because you have to clear a dungeon and then build an entire bridge just to reach it. These two roadblocks are essentially a test to ensure that you are prepared for the fights ahead. 

It's also worth noting that the quest Breeding Grounds will disappear following the defeat of a Highland Ravager, so players must pick this up before engaging in the fight, so all the more reason to consider not picking this fight.
