The Mage class in Dragon Age Inquisition has three available specializations. On this page, you will learn where and how to unlock each of the subclasses.
Way of the Rift Mage
Specialization requirements
- 3x Venatori Tome
- 10x Ring Velvet
- 1 Writing on rift magic
Venatori Tome can be obtained only in Exalted Plains, near the bodies of killed Venatori enemies. The less quests you've completed in the location, the more Agents you will encounter.
Ring Velvet is a quite common material in the game. You can obtain it by killing various enemies as random loot. However, the easiest way to find it is to kill Venatori enemies, so you can look for it when searching for Venatori Tomes in Exalted Plains.
Writing on rift magic can be found near Solas in Skyhold, or bought from a merchant in Val Royeaux.
Way of the Necromancer
Specialization requirements:
- 3x Nevarran Skull
- 10x Bloodstone
- 1x Writing on necromancy
Nevarran Skulls can only be found in Storm Coast, near Ghoul bodies. Ghouls are not very common, but you can find a few near the center of the map and when completing the Keeping the Darkspawn Down quest, where you will be closing rifts.
Bloodstone is very common in Emprise du Lion, so you shouldn't have any problems finding it. You can also find it in The Emerald Graves.
Writing on necromancy can be found near Dorian, on one of the floors of the tower in Skyhold. If Dorian is not in your team, you can buy this item from a merchant in Val Royeaux.
Way of the Knight-Enchanter
Specialization requirements:
- 3x Wisp Essence
- 10x Lazurite
- 1x Writing on Knight-Enchanter methods
Wisp Essence (not to be mistaken with Spirit Essence) are not very common. To obtain it, go to The Fallow Mire and kill all the paranormal beings. This way, you should by able to quickly obtain the required amount.
Lazurite can be found mainly in the Western Approach and Hissing Wastes. You can also obtain in Exalted Plains.
Writing on Knight-Enchanter method can be found in Skyhold, near Vivienne. She stands on a balcony above the main entrance to the keep. If Vivienne is not one of your companions, go to Val Royeaux and buy the item from a merchant.
