Dragon Scale Armor Dragon Age Origins
If you like powerful armor, and we know that you do, you'll want to undertake this side quest. Indeed, this side quest is really only half a side quest, since finding the items needed for this side quest involve you undertaking a main quest (follow all of that?). However, knowing what to do with those items is another thing entirely. Here's the rub. During your quest to find the Urn of Sacred Ashes, you'll be forced to traverse a dungeon known as the Caverns. Here, you'll run into dragon enemies that aren't yet full-grown dragons. Known as Drakes, these foes are easy enough to take down, especially if your entire party gets in on the fray and teams up on them as individual targets. Each Drake that's killed in the Caverns will drop an item called a Dragon Scale. You should fight six Drakes within the Caverns, and thus find six Drake Scales. You'll need all of them to see this side quest through.
With the Drake Scales in hand, you'll want to then head back to Denerim. There's a shop in Denerim's Market District known as Wade's Emporium. Head on in there and speak with the man at the desk, informing him that you have Drake Scales in-hand. Impressed that you found such a powerful item, the armor-maker within the shop will offer to make some Drake Scale armor for you. Hand over three Drake Scales, leave Denerim completely, come back, and claim your armor. Keep in mind that if you offer up ten gold coins while handing off the Drake Scales, you'll get even better armor when you return. You can repeat this process one more time with the other three Drake Scales, getting even better armor this time around. Pay them twenty gold coins with the last three Drake Scales, and you'll get more quality armor. Each set of armor will give you a breastplate, gloves and boots. This entire side quest is simple and, while expensive, totally worth your time. Get to it!

Once you have the dragon scale in your possession travel to [Denerim - Market district - Wade's emporium] (M65, 12). Talk to Herren, however Wade himself will soon join the conversation. Make sure to inform him about finding this unique scale aside from the scales of smaller drogs. Wade can make an armor right away and you'll be allowed to choose between three sets - a weak set (34 strength points required to wear the armor), a medium set (38 strength points required to wear the armor) and a powerful set (42 strength points required to wear the armor).
