The Arcane Warrior specialization is a tricky one to find, as there's only one place in the game you can get it.

Talk to the spirit there, and he'll give you the specialization.
You can only unlock the Reaver specialization while at the ancient temple to Andraste, and you can only do it by obeying Kolgrim and defiling Andraste's Ashes (what, you thought reavers were nice people?) And of course, there's more blood for you to drink.
