Could we please have a way to enter the vaults on Bloodmoon isle without having the scholar tag?

This restriction is preventing me from enjoying this part of the game because I made characters without the scholar tag. :|

Apparently a few quests are locked behind (or have the best outcome locked behind) the scholar tag. Other tags are just flavor for dialogue. Not sure how many or to what extent.

I also know of one quest which has its best outcome locked behind having BOTH Scholar AND Mystic, you get nothing if you have only one or the other. Well, you can also cheat using outside-the-game knowelege.

The quest where you need to treat the patient is also gated behind the scholar tag as well as the 1 with the lizard's chest in Ryker's house.

The treating the patient quest can be completed without scholar or mystic tag. The vaults on bloodmoon isle cannot be complete in any ways without the scholar tag and it is one of the major quests. Not a minor one like treating the patient. :|

Yes, but the GOOD ending is gated behind Scholar. The Bloodmoon vaults are also optional, not part of Lhose's quest. I decided to leave them alone.

There is always a way to get a quest or complete a quest without a specific tag, except the vault's one.
It's frustrating to be stranded from a whole part of an area because of your character's pick (like a lonewolf duo).
It makes scholar a must have, far from barbarian and noble for example...

An option with a ghost, a NPC who shall translate odd books (like Tarquin, he's on Lady Vengeance, he knows old languages, why shall he not translate books ?) will be pleasant !
