How rare are skillbooks?

[Lor]

Specifically floromancy and pyromancy skillbooks. I prefer the idea of discovering this magic for my character later in the game when i'm more progressed but if it's extremely rare I will start with it instead.

There are a number of 'Troublesome' PoIs that give a random book as a reward.
The mage tower is one.

There are 20 different skills, so the chance of you getting the book you want each time is not great.

pretty rare but also obtainable honestly i started with pyromancy cuz i wanted to be a wizard/rogue hybrid but i realized i was better off going hunter with daggers because dex was what i was stacking. I honestly haven't even leveled it to 20 and the skill is just extra skillpoints so if thats why ur grabbing it id suggest just waiting if you plan to farm high tier pois anyway.

If only there is Literacy skills that can help with books and scroll in the game....

Skillbooks are sadly rather rare. And even if you manage to get it from loot chest then you have 1 in 20 (5%) of getting the book you want.

In my over 80 hours of playing and clearing about 100 POIs I only got like 3 skillbooks if im correct

Pyromancy has a guaranteed drop from one of the extreme POI, don't think the same can be said for floromancy. Random skill books are indeed very rare and you can play the game for 100 hours and explore the entire map without finding the book the want. It all comes down to luck.

Always start with floromancy if you intend to use it. It also helps to not start with year 100 map to find trainers to increase your skill cap. I personally like to start in a year 350 world.

The beholder eye is from Cozy Xanaxas Home boss in desert biome.
Banshee... not sure, really.

I got a medusa head from an extreme PoI end chest.
It gives the Locusts Floromancy ability, using it gives Floromancy xp.

After reaching 32 adventuring it seems that skill books drop every couple of chests.
