Turelus · May 2016

I know there are gold books for the following:

Dwemer
Xivkin
Glass

I can't help with the later ones as I was hiatus from a month, sorry.

As far as I know, the ones currently in game are the following: Imperial (which is gold, even though you can't get it in parts), Xivkyn, Glass, Malacath, Trinimac, Ancient Orc, Dwemer, Mercenary, Akaviri, Dominion, Covenant, Pact and Outlaw.

According to the PTS patch notes, the new gold crafting books which will be introduced with the Dark Brotherhood DLC are the following: Thieves Guild, Abah’s Watch, and Assassins League.

For a complete list of armor styles (craftable and non-craftable), have a look at this thread: http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/260228/all-motifs-updated-list

These are things that even I don't look for. The drop rate is very very very very low.

Where does the Akaviri gold book drop? or do you buy it with AP also?

Buy it with AP or buy it off a player, who bought it with AP.

I have seen only one in a Guild Kiosk, it was I believe a Dwemer Book, and at the time it was listed at something like 600,000. This was back when the Chapters were selling for 15K to 20K. I think someone posted a screen shot of a Glass Book listed at a Kiosk once a long time ago, and that was priced even higher.

I think the Complete Books, if offered, have a drop rate that makes the Imperial look as common as Ta's in comparison. When ZOS says, "A Small Chance", that just means they don't want to write out all the 0's in the 0.0000001% (one in a million*) Chance

*I think that would be a one in a million percentage, but that might be off.....

Thank you.

Anyone know how many AP's the golden Akaviri book goes for?

I don't remember seeing a full Akaviri book for sale at the npc, getting all of the individual chapters would cost 4.3m AP

Imagine finding a gold book, and its mercenary. I would be so sad

failkiwib16_ESO · May 2016

@FerrumnCutem atm. the page drop rate is so stupid high, even after the nerf - so v16's have already learned them, and players with low crafting level can't read them, so it excludes all lowbies from being able to read it. They just get donated to guildbanks... and nobody touches them.

I hope they either introduce a gold mercenary book + get rid of all the pages at once, so it's relatively rare and can be a more desired item, or at least allow lower level crafters to be able to read it x_x

With the new craft bag coming with DB. Loot everything!

FerrumnCutem · May 2016

Are craft bags sub only? Or can you pay crowns aswel?

There is no Akaviri book. Doesn't exist.

@DRXHarbinger that in itself is true, because the Akaviri is torn up in individual pages - yet in eso a full version of all motifs that come in as individual pages are considerate a gold motif.

Btw. ZOS said that a full glass motif was obtainable in the game, however nobody has ever seen one ...no response from ZOS about it either. It's pretty low to advertise that something is released and over half a year after nobody have seen it.

DRXHarbinger · May 2016

I've seen glass twice in full book form for sale. 1m a pop.

Never seen dwemer. Must have been removed given its so easily obtainable and I've never even heard of anyone that's actually seen it.

failkiwib16_ESO · May 2016

@DRXHarbinger I don't know what platform you play on, and wether it makes a difference or not ...however on PC I have always seen it in guildstores, it's about as frequently dropped as the gold Xivkyn motif, however less farmed today than before, because it is no longer as popular.

Btw. as far as I know, Xivkyn doesn't have a cooldown where Dwemer motif does. You can farm like 1 page/ full book per hour per character. Xivkyn motif requires that you open up vault chests that requires 60 trophies obtained as mob loot.
