Where do I find the "Guide to Approved Methods of Procreation"

Meld777

I am looking for this item:



The item info suggests it can be found somewhere in the AD zones. The tags Artwork and Writings provide further guidance. I've been casually pickpocketing Mages, Scholars, Priests and Guards in AD zones for the past few months. All the items I'm looting keep repeating (including purple and golden ones; golden only being furnishing items ofc).

Does anyone who looted it remember where he did so?

The internet? Oh, wait, you meant an in-game book.....sorry.

Those things tend to be pretty random. I'd focus on Auridon and loot places with lots of trunks and dressers and backpacks, like the Vulkhel Guard bank, or any place with safeboxes. Beyond that it's just persistence and prayers to the RNG gods.

Khajiit will let you know should she come across a copy in her line of work - such a shame that once laundered these things they remain bound yes. They have no greater value in the world so are unlike to be a source of profit at a guild trader or anything - or just make them unlistable in such a way yes.

This one has often come across things she would like to pass on to a friend.

Since it says Thalmor, I would concentrate on the College in Auridon, the Thalmor Embassy in Grahtwood and the town of Woodhearth in Greenshade. Of course it may drop anywhere, but the ones I listed have the most Thalmor out and about.

...Does it matter? Do these things actually have a purpose outside of selling to fences?

They are funny when linked at the right moment

The user (AlyaraMC) was last online 8 hours ago so you could message them through that site.

Alternatively I reckon I would be looking around Skywatch, the city on the east of Auridon that is having a permanent celebration. Pickpocket people who have professions that might mean they like "artwork", and go through the bedside tables of every house.

I'll let you know if I come across this treasure - my characters tend to look inside every container, regardless of ownership. And then keep the funny items just because there's enough inventory room (bearing in mind I have ESO+ and 14 characters with max inventory).

My most prized possession is a jar of Pacrooti's Mole Asses, collected while pilfering goods in Hews Bane.

I recently found what was described as a 'crudely made' Vanus Galerion doll, with pins in it, that I looted from... wait for it: a Mage NPC The game is so subtly briliant this way; I spent a good 10 minutes chuckling to myself, and coming up with stories of how this must have been an apprentice that was terrorized by Vanus, and made the doll as a result.

Probably not a very truthful book looking at the total absence of recently procreated NPCs though. Adult NPCs either have absent libidos due to the stress caused by the Planemeld and various game changes, or are experts at coital animation cancelling aka pulling out IRL

This looks like it might be much more fun...



to link in chat I mean.

Sailors in Vvardenfell carry it, along with false eye lashes, red lip gloss, scented cosmetic padding and the like. What interesting lives they must lead.

I'd sell you my copy but it's a little worn out, especially page 9, and some of the other pages are...well never mind

And I wouldn't doubt that Queen Ayrenn keeps a copy in her bedside drawers for umm research
