    It's a shame !!!! They think that lorebooks are not important, so they simply don't fix, and they bug other books in other patchs. Even fishing is more important than Eidetic memory, they implemented fish filleting, but never solved the buggy books problem

    Please @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom @ZOS_Kevin
    remove Eidetic memory completely!
    It's more honest than leaving it looking so disastrous.

    Besides the bugged necrom books and ToT clues, i am still missing these books:

    Summerset Scrolls:

    - Lirendel's Family Shrine
    - Naliara's Notes, Day 2
    - Naliara's Notes, Day 8

    Does anyone know the post-quest location?

    Tales of Tamriel:

    - The Year 2920, Vol. 27

    Since about 2 months i farm daily the bookshelves in the imperial city districts (= cp / non-cp) but without success, what am i doing wrong?

    hmmm, "the undaunted need you book" is not part of the impressario catalogue but is also not available if you finished the "intro event" of the undaunted celebration before going to the impressario tent and reading it. Or am I mistaken ?

    Should be on a signpost or fence in front of the impresario's tent. I know the one in vhukel guard is easily noticible.

    There's a photo of the spot in vhukel guard by the impresario.

    In addition to the already listed books from AP and TT and that Tribute note (Ilasaba's Excuses, Onri Murien's Hidden Wishes, Zeirinia's Silent Admission, The Curse of Blackscale Island; Closed By Order of the Abbot, Communications Between Nilphas and Thoryn; Challenge of the Paramount), I'm also missing Torvesard's Journal.

    I definitely missed it when I was doing the quest. Is anyone aware of a post-quest location or do I just have to add that to the list of currently unobtainable books and play the waiting game?

    At the end of the main Necrom questline, you meet torvesard on a cliff near Cipher Middens. That's where the book is by a statue past the invisible bridge.

    EDIT: yes, you can get back here post-quest.

    This worked, thank you very much. I had checked the craglorn tent but it was not there (it was on other chars) but did not think of checking the other tents.

    No, let's not do that. It's a fun collection.

    Also, thanks to everyone who found Cipher Akacirn's Journal, Torvesard's Journal, and Survey of the Alavelis Mine. And Note to Cynric now that I checked this thread!

    I'm pretty excited. I really hope they finally fix all of Necrom.

    Because then, I don't know what long-awaited fixes are needed.

    Don't worry, a few Summerset books haven't been fixed yet. So they need at least 6 years for repair xD

    Go run onto the pts and look. Lots of these bugged books are slightly hidden from view by just adventuring.

    From Update 40 patch note:

    "The title “The Well-Versed” can be obtained by completing the achievement “No Book Left Unread”. "

    They made an achievement on reading all books !!!
    So I assume they have a plan to fix them all...

    I read the entire Update 40 patch note.
    If I haven't missed something, the only place where the books fix is mentioned is this, at the end:
    " Adjusted yet another few hundred clipping, floating, or inaccessible creatures, resource nodes, books, and monsters."

    I agree.
    In case it wasn't clear enough, let me clarify that mine was a sarcastic message.

    For those unaware, unfortunately those are not related to Eidetic Memory but rather a PvE achievement and title, like Ardent Bibliophile for the BDV tri.

    The title and achievement have nothing to do with reading lorebooks - "Verses" are the buffs you can gain in the new endless dungeon.

    So as always, no interest in the Eidetic Memory and in the players interested in this knowledge and collection. No intention of fixing the books and maybe some other buggy book comes out. :/

    Does anyone know where the below books are under the Tales of Tamriel Eidetic Memory collection?
    The Year 2920, vol. 3
    The Year 2920, vol. 19

    UESP suggests Bookshelves in Auridon, Glenumbra, and Stonefalls for vol. 3, but does anyone know of a more specific location?
    There is also no location at all for vol. 19 listed, does anyone have any ideas?

    The Elder Scrolls Fandom Wiki says that Volume 3 can potentially be found in Vulkhel Guard.

    Finally found The Year 2920, vol. 19 in a bookshelf in Shael Ruins, Malabal Tor. :-)
