Hey guys, so I just finished playing the game through several times, and messed about with it slightly, trying out different mods and console commands, anyway to the point.

While playing a Blood Mage Hawke I used the console addtalent command to add the NPC Bloodmage spells, which worked perfectly (Animations and all) plus Merill's spell tree, just so I had a few more blood magic spells to use. Anyway while doing this I also saw some of the bosses skills/spells which sadly did not seems to work ( e.g. Meredith and Arishok) Im assuming that is due to lack of animations, plus I also happened to see to famous Hawke demonic-arm-summon finishing move used on an ogre in the deep roads which got me thinking, the animations for these things exist, would it be too hard/impossible to shape these in to new skills/spells for Hawke to use?

So I guess the request is either animations to allow Hawke to use some more impressive abilities (Such as that of Merediths or Arishok), Or on a smaller request, shaping the demon-arm finishing move animation in to a spell that can be used on other enemies.

what do you mean you saw the hand finishing move in the deep roads? the spell exists?! tell me everything you know!

Yep the animation certainly exists, in the deeproads, the part where you fight the ogre, I simply used Crushing Prison as the last spell to finish him off, two black phantom like arms, swooped in one by one, grabbed and ripped apart. Try it out yourself (Seems to only work on ogre's :/ and we only fight 3 of those in game)

here is what i found out:

only works with hawke. i got 2 mages (im a warrior) in my party and both use crushing prison often. never have i seen this animation.
only works as a "finishing move". obviously it needs to be the spell that kills the enemy.. or it would be stupid to have someone ripped apart and he would be alive. magic!
ogres only? time will tell...i very doubt it tho.

Someone from Bioware confirmed it only works on Ogre's on the Official Forums just so you know. So it is intended, but i'd love to see it happen on everything..
