How to make Grasp of the Starved Scroll

[rasmasyean]

I tried this and it didn't work.
I even tried different body parts.

Does it have to be a hand that has "memories"?

Are you trying the high quality shadow essence, or the source orb? The link you posted has both as a viable option, but since it's a source power, I would think you need the source orb, and the essence listed is a mistake. If you are using an orb and it's still not working, then I am out of ideas.

I always had trouble making them as well. The loose body parts required makes it seem like they might not all be the same. Its a weird one...

Just discovered something interesting. There are 2 kinds of Disembodied Hands. You cannot make the scroll w/ the hands pointing upwards (cut wrist at bottom); only the hands pointing downward (cut wrist at top). I'm new to Arx, and had 4 of the "right" kind of hands, and 3 of the "wrong" type.

Did you guys make use of GotS much?

I found it a really powerful spell, but setting it up was kind of a pain in the ass. The battlefield was often covered in surfaces by the time my turn rolled around so blood rain wasn't doing much. By the time I got tornado to clear out surfaces to make blood rain useful I found that I had more useful spells.

This is my 4th (and last) game, and the 1st time I've attempted to do anything w/ a high INT necromancer. That said, I focused on maxing Hydro 1st anyway. So, actually, I haven't used it that much, but it's been helpful a few times, and I'd like it in my bag of tricks for finishing up Arx. I just wish the wiki was clearer about *which* type of Disembodied Hands to hoard.
