redcliffe gate problem

[wayfarer]

I'm in the courtyard and right click on the gate lever but nothing happens. So I finished the battle and again tried but the gate will not open, even though its highlighted.

it is openend by an npc. You cant open it by yourself.
It only opens at a certain point in the story of the Arl of redfcliffe.

Thank you for the info. It is somewhat confusing though because several of the walkthroughs tell you to open the gate to let in the waiting npcs to assist you in the courtyard battle.

Had the same problem aswell ;)
I guess the Guides were written for a earlier patch.

As with the beginning quests, some characters have different actions within the game. For example dwarven nobles only have to option to join the grey wardens AFTER they were exiled, and since most if not all of the leads are subject to betrayal of some sort some of them get to join earlier
