spell pages

[Rivethead]

So what can be done with the acual spell pages besides turning into dark blood? I what The Failed pages are for but am seeing alot of gibberish when it comes to the normal pages.

Thanks!

Regular spell pages are used when upgrading your tome to learn new sorcery things. One page per upgrade. Once you have gotten the last upgrade, spell pages (both the normal ones and failed ones) are useless unless you want to make acid, firespark, or smoke arrows. But even then it is faster to just go kill the Jhil bosses for blood.

If you have a thrall at your table, they will unlock a research ability. This produces spell pages. Either the good one, or another failed one in two ways:

1. 10 failed pages = 1 good page. I don't know if this is a guarantee or not, but it's worked for me in the past. I had a good thrall on my table though, so that may have been why.

2. Use materials to create a spell page. If yo don't have the stack of 10 failed pages to use, you can use the listed materials to try for a page. This time, the kind of thrall most liekly matters, because it did produce a failed page once or twice.

This method requires other tables to be used.

If it keeps failing to create a good page, it's OK, because you'll eventually have 10 pages to trade in.

But how do I USE the spell pages? Sorry if I’m a bit dim

Put your Tome of Kurak (you get it from the cave where you learn sorcery) into the thaumaturgy bench (learned at the same place) along with the other required materials and craft the upgrade. Same way you would craft something at any other crafting bench.

If you haven't learned sorcery yet, then the pages are worthless for you.

That is the required mats to make a spell page. The spell page itself and the tome you find, plus certain other ingredients are used to upgrade the tome. The first upgrade requires the tome, one spell page, and if I remember right one putrid meat and one stone.

Wait, how do you turn these pages into dark blood?? I mean, I don’t even collect pages any more after fully upgrading the book which I incidentally never use and I have a ton of black blood in a chest already… but I am still curious because that’s the first time I’ve ever heard that you could squeeze black blood out of (failed-fake-news)paper, lol.

Throw the pages in the dismantling bench for black blood. I'm assuming black blood was used as ink to write the spells.

Alright, thank you. Makes sense.

You're not dim, it's just not a very intuitive setup. I had to watch a tutorial youtube video lol. Failed fake news paper, I like that lol :)
