Ninagauth's Black Pages (Spoiler)


Recommended Posts

If anyone curious about where to find it, I just occasionally stumbled upon it.

 

For those who don't know about this, it's a little quest, you find staff buried in the snow in Russetwood (White March), after interaction there'll be small scene and close to it is a "map" (secret find) which says about this Grimoire but doesn't give even a clue where to look for it, lol...

 

Not sure about requirments, but my Devil of Caroc has 12 mechanics and spotted it pretty easily, its in Durgan's Battery btw.

 

Here are some screenshot to help you find it:

There's pretty interestiong unique spell there, might be a big use for any Wizard, have fun  8)

There should be more spells in there (including another unique); hopefully 2.02 is going to fix that.

 

You can find a clue as to where this is in Russetwood.

There are a BUNCH of unique spells in that grimoire that aren't in your screenshot, but it glitches out if you inscribe them and then reload a save.

Also it somehow has Shadowflame inscribed as a level 3 spell when it is a level 4 spell.

My advice is to save before travelling there (you have to have seen the ghost in Russetwood about the apprentice hiding the grimoire), pick it up, quickly have Aloth/another wizard learn every spell, copy them into a second grimoire, and then save to a seperate file.

Then you can test loading that second save to make sure the spells don't magically disappear.

Some of those spells are extremely strong.

There should be two but a bug in 2.01 prevents one of them from appearing. Can't recall the exact name - Ray of Something Something - but it's like a foe-only ray of fire that does raw damage instead.

Both of those spells sound freaking awesome.

Ninagauth's Death Ray.

When I said death before dishonour, I meant it alphabetically.

And the unique spell I got from Concelhaut for the curious ones (I'm still on 2.0 so no corrosive missiles for me):

Oh crap... Thanks for sharing, I hope devs will fix this bug somehow because I went FAR ahead and reloading would destroy my progress... Still keeping that Grimoire in my bag, hope I would make better use of it with the new update =/ 

Those spells look fantastic.

Just add a new copy of Ninagauth's Black Pages using the console, Stoner, if you are so unfortunate that the grimoire you have picked up has been corrupted. This disables achievements, but that's surely a small price to pay.

 

The relevant command is: additem grimoire_high_lvl_ninagauth 1

It also has a very pretty animation, but there seem to be some problems with it. I'm not sure how its damage works - when used on a DR 18 character all 3 projectiles did 14 damage each. 16 each on a DR 12 (but 9 vs Corrode) one. The only way I can make sense of it is if it takes basic armor DR (not Corrode one) without quality enchantments and deducts 1/3 of that from each projectile. The combat log doesn't seem to help - it doesn't show the math, and sometimes it says all 3 projectiles did 0.0 damage together even if they did 42 in reality. Oh, and WM cave ogres don't turn hostile if you hit them with it, unless you hit them enough for one of them to die. Am I missing something, or should I report all this as bugs?

Sounds very much like a bug to me.

It's in Concelhaut's Grimoire but you must have obtained it after patching to 2.01.

I totally don't care for achievements but I'll still hold out on using the console, thanks for the tips tho, seems some spells are bugged and my main thankfully isn't Wizard, so Aloth will do just with new Fireball for now.  ;)
