fighter wild mage multiclass or dual?

Post by ElfEleven »

has anyone tried this?
or is it allowed?
i was thinking it would be nice to have 5 slots with a longbow as a mage and take advantage of the high strength and constitution bonuses, and i think a wild mage would be fun, games are supposed to be fun!
i did try a multi fighter/mage, but found the weapon slots limited to only two so maybe i could start as a human fighter (would prefer elf for this combo), then dual into (wild) mage? or fighter/sorcerer even?
ohh, what about a ranger with an archer kit and a wild mage character!?
well i dont want to use any hacks, just a pure game if i can.
so any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.

You can't dual to a wild mage or sorceror. They both count as character kits and you can't dual into kits, only into basic classes.
Anywhere you can find a raving lunatic rambling on about his past and how he received the enlightenment from the toads who hail from the heavens, I'll be there.


And no, I'm not on drugs.

you can dual to kits quite easily with a shadowkeeper tweak.

what you can't do is dual to a sorceror or barbarian as they are classes in their own right, specialist classes.

You can do a lot of things with shadowkeeper, but I just meant that without cheating you can't dual to kits. I should've been more clear about that.

fighter/mage

thanks for the help
may just try a fighter, get the archery slots, then dual to mage
or play the elf fighter/mage multi, but lack the slots in weapons
is there any armor a fighter/mage can wear? elven chain?
what about bladesinger (isnt that a f/m?) chain > aslyferund chain?
or go with cloaks and robes and bracers? oh my!
thanks again

You could be a Generic Archer dualed to a mage with the Tactics mod installed. Generic Archer is a fighter version of the ranger archer, but it doesn't have Hide in Shadow and druids spells.
