so we have here "2 book of lore" (on the left) one is Full and one is Empty!
If you put the mouse on the books we have the same description (on the right).



the only way to know its empty is "double click on it" and see this:


the only way to know if there are at last one page = None
the only way to know if the book is full = None

Congratulations!

The book should take on the title of the story, so Alchemist's Abomination Book of Lore for this one... They might also want to think about a different hue for each event arc.

I take it that you reject the theory that one day the book will contain all lore, the sum of all Sosarian knowledge, and thusly will eclipse the Codex of Ultimate Wisdom?

Maybe when it has all 12 pages the name will change?? That would have been a good question to ask at the Dev M&G we had Monday on Napa! I have only the one book locked down at my home, with the two pages it has so far. I could see no reason to lock any of the others down and threw them in a chest.

You can put the pages in the book from Deceit. It also has the same title but of the three added. So unless you use that one, you will not have all the lore pages.

You shoulda bought one. :)

From Deceit? I think I'm missing something
The first dynamic spawn was in deceit and it had a book of lore that you could buy for 20 points.

Amazing all the content they put out and posters complain the devs don't do anything. When those same posters probably don't play. "Not guided toward Laura"

All 12 pages? I got a page 13! Screenshot (318).png

That sounds like the last page. It describes the bottom floor of the sparkle area.

Anyone have pics of each page?

If you have already a full book of lore with all pages - would it be a great problem to post all the pages with pics here (screenshots)? This would be very kind for all the ones who are also willing to collect them :)

i have the book full and the pic is on the first post
the name is the same, whether the book is full or empty, 1 page or 2, looks always the same.
so it is possible to scam someone easily

i'll try to put all the pages

My main issue with the pages are typos. For some reason I have seen pages which have the wrong author or other issues. There is no way to really check the full page before putting it into a book and there is no way to remove a faulty page once you have put it in. Thankfully the author name at least shows up in the tooltip of the page, so I was able to avoid buying the one which did not have Sherry the Mouse listed as the author (It was a page 11, but most other 11's I found had the right author as Sherry). I'm not sure how the same exact pages could end up being different, but I would have been quite annoyed if I hadn't noticed and been stuck with it in a book with other pages.

The story is pretty cool in that they kind of looped in much of the new "stuff" from the past few months (like gold/silver soulstones etc).

For anyone who has added the page from "of the three" to the book, does it come before or after the abomination story (assuming it isn't in the middle)??

Of the Three is page 0

(I didn't add any of the pages to it, because I had already started adding them to the Book of Lore)
but this is what it says when you open it up.

How is the drop rate for the pages?

I have only invested a few hours here and there and brought the spawn to those pesky Elders and Priests but so far no page drop.

LMAO And how do you tell how many runes are in a rune book without opening it and why do you need 2 lore books at the same time. Just another thing for you to pancake about when it comes to UO.

Still no FIX
Now we have the 2nd book from wildfire event with same name and same issue.

But how long does it take for a simple fix like this? a good programmer could fix this problem since, 10 min? :wall:

Try locking them down somewhere. Both my books are locked on a table for people to read and both now have the information.
