Book of Truth * contains spoilers *

taken from Thread :- Book of Truth found in UO.UHall


So... I was just playing around on Origin a little, and I wonder - where can I possibly find some books of truth?

###########################


Yeah, we seem to be missing some valuable information.

"Thank you for responding to our call for help. As you know, dark entities from beyond our world have stolen the Book of Truth. To keep us from finding the book, they have created thousands of false books, which are carried by the denizens of dungeons Covetous, Deceit, Despise, Destard, Hythloth, Shame and Wrong. Return 25 of these copies to me, and I shall reward you with a sword unlike any other in the lands."

All I got out of the Cliloc. I can't wait for it to hit my server.

Each NPC has a different reward.

The one that wants 50 books gives the gorget of Honesty,
25- the redeemer (some sword I think)
10- a new music box gear?
1- some treasure box

Now the only trick is where you get the books....

Well since my post was LOCKED for no real good reason let me REPOST my question here:

I asked JEREMY if the content was live or not! It had nothing to do with this post AT ALL! Guess I'll have this post removed becaus it has NOTHIN to do with this post! Hey next time before locking my post would you at least read it?

Your two threads were locked because you were asking about books of truth. This thread is about books of truth. The moderators aren't fond of multiple threads on the same subject.

The event is live, as per the patch notes.

(re: your comment in the locked thread about Draconi saying it's not - he's awfully confused by that. He was the one who told me it's all live)

UPDATES

I think it's only the legacy dungeons - Deceit, Despise, Hythloth etc.

Cheers,

Correct A Mundo!

###############################


I've just killed about 70 ettins on Pac in Fel Despise. Didn't get even one book. I thought Fel supposedly had a higher drop rate???



There is a higher drop rate in Felucca. The drop rate is also influenced by the fame level of the creature. Ettins are relatively low in the fame department, so very few of them will spawn books on death.

Update


Just finished killing another 70 ettins in Fel despise. Still not even one book. Something seems amiss on Pac..

The drop rate is probably based on the fame of the creature. So if you fight 100 lizard men you will have a much lower chance to get one then fighting 10 balrons



JC Beat me to the punch. JC is correct.

Thanks for the reply. I know it's famed based but damn, 200 kills for one.

Next question.

Once the book is toggled as a quest item, can it still be stolen or looted?


Yes, they can be stolen or looted, even if toggled as a quest item.

which, btw, I think is very clever

so far I think the system is excellent... my only gripe thus far is that you have to have all 50 books in your pack to complete the quest AND have to toggle them all to quest item.

I would like to be able to enter them one book at a time like TOK dropoffs just to clear up bank space... I don't have a house on origins... I have limited storage


Definitely noting this Sarphus. Thanks for the feedback.


##############################

Thanks again.

Killed 40 or so Dread spiders for one. Quite a bit better than Ettins.



Yep, that sounds about right


############################

Thx man...

btw... you still rock. And I have several of your pumpkins.

I have a Q about this system.

Does it cap how many book drops you can get in a given period of time? I seem to get them in spurts. One time I got 5 in about 10 minutes and then didn't get one for about 30
