Eidetic Memory Bugs/Comments/Help, Volume Two

    Oh perfect! Thank you for the information.

    I was able to go back and find it - the waterfall entrance is still available post-quest. I hope this stays the standard practice going forward - almost never a good reason to lock areas after quest completion, and it auto-solves eidetic memory issues, like what would have happened if the smuggler tunnels were locked in this case. I'm thankful that the door was left open.

    I think this is the first new DLC in a long time without any unobtainable or missable eidetic memory items, which is really great to see! This is the first time I haven't seen this or the original thread blow up right after a major content release.

    Now if only the unsigned Tome of the Undaunted would get fixed - been the big barrier for a complete eidetic memory for years. And the few others that are still lingering. Things like the faction-locked Cyrodiil lore and the like have been consistently learned about by ZOS and addressed, so I hold out hope.

    I am down to one book from Greymoor (plus the two known bugged ones), and I am a bit desparate.I cant find Convergence of Maestros, Volume 2. According to UESP wiki it should be at the boat, leading to Kynes Aegis.

    Problem is, I cant find it there. And furthermore, I dont even have the boat travel option to Kynes Aegis. Is that only available during that particular quest? Should that book still be at the location post-read and post-quest (although I dont think it is even related to the quest, based on the content)? If someone could check at the docks and send a screenshot perhaps, that would be great.


    In addition, I have one more confusing thing, Unnamed Mining Journal, Page 44. I can see the book and I can read it, but it doesnt seem to "register" (still glowing).

    The book is by the in-game launch part to the trial, NOT by the one at Solitude Docks when you're doing the quest

    Thanks a lot, that helped. (Kind of embarassing, I just realized, that the LoreBooks icon was just hidden behind the Trial icon :s , I never zoomed in, because I never looked in that place)

    I suggest Circonian's WaypointIt add-on. It adds a tab with subtabs (including books) filtering to map icon types, lets you select it from the list and shows direction and distance to the selected waypoint. Rather useful to not have to browse the whole map with your eyes :)

    I have all new greymoor lore except 'letter to Dorbin'

    I've searched in many possible locations related to the quest and associated people. I even Re done the quest on another character to see if I had missed it during the quest. Still no closer to finding this book. Please help

    Can anyone tell me where Dictate of Renewal is after the "The Lady of Blood" quest in Greymoor? I already completed it but can't find it in the Greymoor Keep Outer Courtyard like UESP says that its in. Could it possibly be with Gwendis when the quest is over?

    I am missing the book 'Missing Miners' that was accessible during a quest in Blackreach.
    I didn't read it during the quest, and after, I can't find it anywhere.
    Is there a post-quest location that anyone knows?

    I am having this issue, except with Page 42. It's located in the South-Eastern corner of the first clearing. It looks as though there are several journal pages throughout Shadowgreen but only one has made it into Eidetic Memory.

    So apparently I didn’t read Bards College Salskap Tonight! When doing the related quest to place handbills throughout Solitude.

    Now that I have completed the quest I can’t find a post quest location for it anywhere. Checked the college, tavern and Blue Palace.

    Anyone see a post quest location for this?

    Hi,

    Just wanted to say thanks so much for this thread!

    It helped me get all but the impossible unsigned undaunted one.

    Nearly gave up on the random ones, Introduction to Aedric studies and Bravil, part 2 were my last two and took ages!

    Thanks to everyone involved. The maps for imperial city were fantastic!!

    There hasn’t been a new update since Greymoor, only a few incremental patches. The update is currently on the PTS (which is where the patch note quoted above is from) and will hit live for PC/Mac in about five weeks with the new DLC. The Dead-Water Riddle Fragment will be available then. Consoles get the update and DLC a few weeks after that.

    For some reason we only get book fixes in the quarterly updates, and then only a small number at a time.

    Well, I'm glad Dead-Water is finally fixed.

    But I am starting to lose hope for Tome of the Undaunted (unsigned). Reported for 3+ years now (while most other books have been fixed within 2). I've never been able to find it on any of my 18 toons anywhere listed in the UESP log viewer or in the rest of the three Undaunted enclave zones. It really needs to be added to the game or removed from the Library. The latter would be a shame, considering the Undaunted is a key part of ESO's identity, but it needs to be fixed one way or the other.

    I don't know how many times we can report it or explain it or send in screenshots of it as unread.

    ones that I am missing
    Sister Elras proclamation (where in Morthal Barrow?)
    for my love (where in verglas hollow?)
    Scrappers Journal (Where in Chilwind Depths?)

    disappeared?
    Sea giants camp
    sea giants actions
    sea giant landing

    glitched?
    missing miners (known?)
    unnamed mining journal 45 (known)

    The Sea Giant ones I can help with, at least. You need to pick up the daily quest Lost Along the Shore, from one of the quest givers in Solitude. (It's the world boss quest for Ysmgar the, well, sea giant.) Once you have that quest in your journal, the three lorebooks appear next to the bodies around his camp. The annoying part is that they only appear during the quest, so you either have to keep checking every day to see if that's your daily assignment, or you can get a share from someone else who has it. Better than being bugged, but still annoying and makes me wonder why they're not just accessible regardless. I mean, is someone planting the lorebooks on the bodies after you pick up the quest? Seems strange.

    When I read the patch notes this morning (I've been on vacation and away the past couple weeks), I'll admit I had this exact thought. Don't get me wrong- I'm ecstatic for those who have been missing the Dead Water Fragment and who are finally able to finish their collection as a result. But once again, they've fixed one singular book this patch, without any word on or acknowledgment of the other books that need to be fixed. As you said, this book has been bugged for over three years, basically as long as there's been an Eidetic Memory thread. The documentation and evidence of it being bugged has been extensive. And the silence in response has been deafening.

    Honestly, this one or two books per patch approach, just to say "See? We haven't forgotten about you book collectors," is starting to get a little old, and a lot disheartening. It kind of feels like we're being humored and strung along at this point, and it's doing a lot to sour my desire to collect the other books or even buy DLCs. But hey, maybe they'll have a fix for Tome patched in before the five-year mark.

    In any case, congratulations again to those who will be able to complete their Eidetic Memory collections when this patch drops. I've now marked Dead Water Riddle Fragment as fixed pending the patch going Live.

    I agree. I’ve been a book behind for years. Dead-Water Riddle Fragment would have been the only book I needed but now I missed “Bards College Salskap Tonight!“ in Greymoor as it is one of those books that if you didn’t read it during the quest you’re screwed or at the very least I couldn’t find a post quest location. Before Dead-Water Riddle Fragment it was Orders From Halskar. I feel like I will never catch up, always haunted by one book. I wish ZoS would just make every book have a post quest location.

    Anyone who can confirm that "Missing Miners" letter is bugged - you have to read it during the quest, which I have completed - but still comes up as unread in my Eidetic Memory list
