Acquiring new spell books
https://i.imgur.com/Ky1bglA.png

I know about the main methods of acquiring spell books, but in the game manual (see above), it mentions asking your Advisors to search for or create spell books. What are Advisors?

Advisors aren't in the game yet. I mainly get spellbooks by casting the conjure spell. I've yet to find one in a lair although I've heard others have.

I have obtained it from the bandit lair. We seem to be able to get it even from the weak lair.

In my current game I must have defeated 20-30 lairs and no spellbooks yet. Maybe I need to hit higher level ones. Or do they need to contain magic users?

Higher level dungeons 10k + strength seem to get me the most spell books.Have gotten them on weaker lairs; but rarely.

Thanks. I restart new games a lot with all the updates so have rarely gotten that far but trying to maintain my current game a bit longer this time.

138 turns into my current game, lair strength was set to 3 during setup. Have received a fire book and an energy book, each from a lair with the corresponding type of mage in it. I don't know if that was a coincidence or not, but both lairs were definitely in the mid thousands range, certainly sub 10k.

Just had battle 4k strength and got a fire spell book. When i fight battles with 20k + strength sometimes i would get 3 spell books after the battle

I'm not 100% on this but having done several long games where I got a large number of spellbooks I believe that they are basically just a random chance of coming up as magic items. I.e. when you randomly get a magic item there is a chance that it gives you a spellbook instead of an item. This means that since there is a chance of getting items with any lair there is a chance with of getting spellbooks with any lair (I have occasionally gotten them from quite weak lairs) but the chance is significantly higher for strong lairs.

If you set the drop rate of magic items higher in game_settings.txt you get more magic items = more chances at spellbooks.

item_drop_rate_factor = 100 - not certain if there is a cap to this I found 200 to drop pretty often.

I"ve had spell books turn up with all kinds of monsters, magic using and not. They seem to be tied to higher dungeon levels.

The fire book i got, i defeated a group of baby dragons. I also got a spell book when i defeated a group of highmen rebels; so not always tied to magic users. Seems defeating magic users does give you a better chance. When i got the 3 books in one battle it was from magic users but their strength was 30k+

In my current game my main stack is around 3k so been fighting lairs just under that. Will see how I do on the spellbooks once it's increased a little.
