im pretty sure there is a mod that can make your mage inquisitor unlock both knight enchanter and rift mage specialization, cause i saw someone using three spells from three different specialization trees in a video once. i desperately need this mod because finley lavellan is definitely both ok, mostly knight enchanter but also there is no way he doesn’t at all use rift related spells.

#mae overshares #(prev yolanda)#yes im still thinking abt da:i its cause im writing my stupid fic and also i rly wish i can finish my playthrough rn lol #i have been regretting speccing finley in knight enchanter almost as soon as i specced him knight enchanter #that spec is only OP when u unlocked at least three of abilities. now it's shit and it doesn't fit my play style at all #im always comfortable playing as mage standing 300 m from the fight and spam AoE spells dsajfdsa #this close encounter shit with side of constant moving doesnt fit my play style at all i shouldnt listen to moffos praising this spec #i still love that spec but it doesn't make a lick sense that a mage inquisitor. esp a dalish mage inquisitor wouldnt use rift mage spells #it integrates nicely into their story arc. the spec features lots of spells that are basically revamp earth spells #so its perfect for dalish mages. since dalish constantly spec in earth magic #but at the same time i still love knight enchanter spec and i think it fits with who my character is as a person #also mage swings big magic sword whoosh whoosh very cool #not to mention i like the headcanon that using rift mage spells would make the anchor hurt more?#and i dont think finley is the kind to go all out and exploit power available to him? he's really the control and restraint kinda person #partially due to childhood trauma. partially due to how he as a person react to living with constant anxiety #(cause u know. dalish live isolated lives in the woods. constantly under danger of being attacked)#KE is all abt healing and protection. which fits with finley as a mage. and viv spec in it and shes all abt leashing her magic so i thought #the spec controls magic too. which also fits finley as a person #not to be a nerd and rant abt video game magic system but i kinda use it as an external reflection of character's inner growth. so #and also i want a good story. so its kinda important that im precise abt it.
