Kommentar von Megami

I found it in the Dalaran Visitor Center, on the floor next to the table, near the 2 bookshelves.

Kommentar von psxchelly

Blinking Rules & Regulations also found in this location.

As Megami says, I found the book in Dalaran visitor's centre, coords. , next to the table.

Kommentar von Hamor

Do these books have some sort of cooldown or something? I cannot find anything readable in the Visitor's Center...

- in addition the books despawn very quickly. 3 minutes or so.

EDIT:
Now I have collected all books but this one.
I tried camping at the spot for 6 hours and no book spawned.
Then I went out about 5 minutes and back in and spawned.

So to me, it seems like it does not only have an odd respawn timer - but also some sort of block to spawn if someone is close.

I would like to know the specific details about this.

- in addition to that I have seen a few things:

When a book spawns at a spot - there is most likely a book spawned somewhere else as well.
All the books I've seen spawned at ~ XX.13, XX.28, XX.43 or XX.58 am/pm
Book spawn far faster than 3 hours sometimes - and sometimes a lot more.
I have never seen a book actually spawn so it appears to me that spawning is blocked if someone is too close at spawn time.

These are NOT facts - it's only personal experiences.

EDIT2: The book now spawned while I was AFK there for 5 minutes. But it does have some weird criteria and no easy-to-figure spawn timer. Just make sure you visit each spot you don't have each time you go to Dalaran and you should get it eventually.

well ive been at the dalaran visitor center for 4 hours .... still no book.... sometimes i wonder if the 3hour thing is true

Kommentar von 283148

I've been camping this book for about 5 days now. It appears to have a regular spawn timer in accordance with the other books (every 3-4 hours a new book will spawn). I've been parked almost directly on top of the spawn location and seen several copies pop into existence, so there doesn't seem to be any problems there.

However, I've seen at least 15 books go by without "Abjuration" actually being one of them. Not sure if the book itself is rare, or if I've just had dismal luck. :\

From my experience (and the experience of my server's "book club", it's about a 50/50 chance of a real or a fake book every 3 to 4 hours. We encourage seekers to join the channel "bookclub" (which seems to exist on many servers now) to coordinate watching and to announce spawns.

Achievement:

Reward:
(Use the book to teleport to a room on top of the Violet Citadal and speak with: Archmage Vargoth)

Archmage Vargoth will reward you with:

Req: (Read the following books, all located throughout Dalaran)

Info:

The books are on spawn timers anywhere from 3 hours to 4 hours

Each book only spawns in one location (so once you find it you do not need to keep checking that location)

Book spawn times are shared with non-achievement books (so you may see a book spawn and it will not be the one you need)

Each location seems to have 2-3 other books (non-achievement) which spawn in that location (randomly)

If you read the book it will disappear within 3min (resetting the spawn timer)

If you do not read the book it will disappear within 5min (resetting the spawn timer)

If an achievement book does spawn, more than one player can read the book and get the credit for reading it. (if they read it within 3min of the first person who read it)

When I find a book I announce it within trade chat so if other would like to read it they can (providing they can get to it within 3min)

Ask around if others are looking for books, group up, spread out to keep your eyes on multiple locations, share spawn timer info (this greatly reduces the amount of running around)

Books (locations):

Location: Dalaran Visitor Center (52.2,55.5), on the floor to the right as you go in, in front of the little table with books on it

Location: Violet Citadel (30.9,46.3), group of bookcases on the right as you go in, Bottom of the left bookcase.

Location: Violet Citadel (26.5,51.7), Up the stairs to the left, on the floor in front of the bookcase, next to the sands of time portal.

Location: Threads of Fate (Cloth Armor shop)(43.6,47.1), Go up stairs out on the balcony on top of a crate to your right as you walk out onto the balcony.

Location: Violet Hold (64.5,52.8), as you go in head to the left and against the wall on the left crate, next to Archmage Timear.

Location: Violet Gate (Crystal Portal)(56.7,46.1), to your right as you enter (northern bookcase) on the floor in front of bookcase.

Location: Legerdermain Lounge (46.9,39.1), Upstairs west room, empty bookcase

Location: Legerdermain Lounge (46.9,39.8), 1st floor western bookcase near the door

First spawn at 19.40, "fake" version.
Second spawn 22.38 "fake" version.
Third spawn 01.47 real thing!
so that makes it about an 3 hour spawn timer

My last book!

Happy Camping for everyone!

Anyone care to upload the actual text in the books for us curious users? Mine despawned when I was finished with the penultimate page =*(

Kommentar von Ashkir

<Penned by the skilled hand of Archmage Ansirem Runeweaver>

Abjuration is the study of protective magic and one of the most important schools for a young mage to study. The most generalized abjuration spell is the mana shield, a spell that transmutes raw mana into a barrier that protects the caster from attacks. Properly executed, this spell can protect the mage against even the most formidable of attacks - but the mana shield is very difficult for a novice to master. It often takes a mage months of practice to even conjure a simple mana shield, and thus, more basic alternatives exist.

A series of elemental armor spells were invented to aid the traveling mage in the unfortunate case that he or she might be attacked. These spells require far less raw energy to cast then a mana shield and are more easily maintained over time, but lack the raw potency of the mana shield. Rather than stopping an attack completely, a frost armor spell might simply decrease the effectiveness of the assault. The more advanced armor spells grant other benefits - for example, the potent mage armor spell actually assists the caster in regaining magical power more easily.

Practitioners of the arcane arts are often ambitious, and we frequently find ourselves in situations where magic may slip just slightly beyond our control. It is for this reason that the ward spells exist. Ward spells are quick, potent incantations to protect the caster against a form of elemental damage - damage which is often caused by the caster attempting one of the other schools of magic. This is why studying abjuration early is so imperative.

One of the most renowned practitioners of Abjuration magic is Prince Kael'thas Sunstrider. While the prince is quite formidable in all schools of magic, Kael'thas has created a variation of Mana Shield that is practically unsurpassed in among the residents of Dalaran. Also notable is the Arcanist Doan, who has perfected a spell that combines Evocation and Abjuration to shield himself for a short time while preparing a powerfull area-of-effect spell. This Detonate spell provides Doan with a degree of near invulnerability for a precious few seconds, but few mages have the capacity to cast it safely.

I've been sitting in the Dalaran Visitor Center for over 24 hours now and have seen 3 different kinds of dummy books spawn.

I started camping at 10 PM on July 19th, and I am still camping the spawn as I type this

The spawn times were as follows:

July 19th
10:25 PM - Dummy

July 20th
1:35 AM - Dummy
5:10 AM - Dummy
9:20 AM - Dummy
12:34 PM - Dummy
3:54 PM - Dummy
7:17 PM - Dummy
10:54 PM - Dummy

It is now 11:02 PM on July 20th and I expect the next spawn to be between 1:54 AM and 2:54 AM on July 21st.

I was told by a friend that there has to be at least 1 spawn of the real book in it's specific location per day, but I've been here past the 24 hour mark and have not seen the Abjuration book.

There is a server reset tomorrow, hopefully it will spawn then.

Just thought I'd write this down.
-Sick

Update:

July 21st
2:17 AM - Abjuration

Success! This pet is awesome! :)

If you camp it, it will come.

*Achievement*
Dalaran

I also posted pictures of a map of all the locations of the books as well as pictures of each specific location the books spawn so you know where to look. Good luck and happy hunting!

The Schools of Arcane Magic - Introduction
Violet Gate : Right side of Archmage Celindra on the floor next to the bookshelf
{Coords 56.7, 45.6}

The Schools of Arcane Magic – Abjuration
Dalaran Visitor Center : Right side of room, on the floor next to the table
{Coords 52.3, 54.8}

The Schools of Arcane Magic - Conjuration
Lower Violet Citadel : Right side of room (to the right of Archmage Aethas Sunreaver), Lower left bookshelf
{Coords 30.7, 46}

The Schools of Arcane Magic - Divination
Upper Violet Citadel : Upstairs on the floor between the book shelves that are to the left of Zidormi and the Caverns of Time portal.
{Coords 26.5, 52.3}

The Schools of Arcane Magic - Enchantment
Upper balcony of Threads of Fate : Go inside and up the stairs on the right side as you walk in, continue up until you are on the balcony. Face the door way and it will be on a crate on the left side.
{Coords 43.5, 46.7}

The Schools of Arcane Magic - Illusion
Violet Hold : Go in and then left. It’s on a crate to the right of Archmage Timear *Regular dungeon daily quest giver* (to the right as you are looking at him)
{Coords 64.4, 52.4}

The Schools of Arcane Magic - Necromancy
Upper Legerdemain Lounge: Go upstairs and to the right in the bedroom with four beds. It will be on the bookshelf against the wall on the second shelf from the top.
{Coords 46.8, 39.1}

The Schools of Arcane Magic - Transmutation
Lower Legerdemain Lounge : Bottom floor on the right bookshelf across from the bar (next to the stove) it will be on the second shelf from the top
{Coords 46.8, 40}

I suggest you get an addon from Curse.com called Dalaran University. It’s simple to use and will help you keep track of when each book may spawn. Just keep in mind, books can spawn as a “real” or “fake” book in each specific location. A fake book that spawns counts (on timers) as a real book, so you will have to wait another 3-4 hours for a chance a real book will spawn.

I hope this helps! Good luck getting your Loremaster title and your Kirin Tor Familiar non-combat pet!

=D There was this very interesting book that spawned where this book does as a dummy, since it disappeared a minute later. Maybe it was interesting because I'd just recently read the Arthas book, and it was about farmers with the plague. </3 It despawned before I could finish.

Kommentar von lazypt

ive read the book now, it was already there when i get in there. after i read it, it only despawned 10 min later

So I've been doing a constant book run while I wait in the Dungeon Finder. I've been doing this for about two weeks and I have yet to see ANY book in this location. I've seen books in all of the other spots (a mixture of real and fake) but nothing in this location. I'm on Staghelm. Has anyone from Staghelm seen anything there? If I don't see something soon, I'm going to submit a ticket.

Kommentar von precise

I have confirmed that all books respawn after a restart. We had rolling restarts just now, after 5 restarts on 2 hours, I got the last 3 books I needed. Kinda lucky, considering the chances of duds. :>

Kommentar von 551650

Can anyone else confirm that these books no longer exist/spawn anymore after the cataclysm expansion? Many days have gone by without even a "dummy" book.

Kommentar von arkhi

I've been camping this for 2 days straight now and still no luck.

But just an FYI, this particular book has a respawn time of 3 hours 30 minutes (approx, if not exactly).

Kommentar von Purrrple

Started finally going for this achievement and my second book to find was this one.

Day 1: It spawned at 8.52am, then fake books spawned at 12.14pm and 3.33pm.

Day 2: A fake book was there this at 7.05am, then real books at 10.32am, 2.07pm and again at 6.04pm!

Kommentar von Xenidra

I think I'm probably one of the lucky ones (not with this book, though). I've gotten every book but this one in probably less than a week. This is the last one I need, so I'm camping it.

Haven't seen anything but the "dummies" in this location, namely Blinking Rules and Regulations. Hoping to get it within the next few hours so I can focus on leveling.

Good luck to anyone who wants to get this achievement~!

12:38 a.m. (server time), camping book and it appeared! Woot woot!

As soon as I attempted to find these book, I found this one straight up..the others, not so easy

Kommentar von 418702

iv been camping this book for about 2 weeks, and see an average of 3 to 4 book spawns a day, always fake. in talking with other farmers of these books on my server i found that it has gone over a dozen fake spawns without the achievement book spawning. i don't know if the spawn is glitched since patch 5.0.4 hit a week ago, or if the rumors that if someone is in close enough proximity to the book's spawn location it wont spawn by design... or maybe the wow gods just hate me, oh well, wish me luck =(
