On the one hand, the collector in me wants to collect all of them right away, but knows I don't have enough gold, and even with enough gold...it's going to take a long time since what people trade in the guild stores is going to be as random as the scripts they find. On the other hand, the roleplayer in me, loves that it's going to feel like my character is actually doing spell research, and working on spells over time like a real mage ought to, rather than just having them all ready on day one. Add to that the randomness of getting the scripts, and it's bound to initially feel like no two players are really researching the same new spell at the same time, because of all the variations and possibilities. As for the gold cost, well, I've never read a novel, manga, manhwa, or watched any fantasy genre about mages, where researching new spells was inherently cheap, so the price also helps with the RP, so I'm okay with it. Honestly, I can't wait to start researching my little script addons, and heaven help me once they start adding those cosmetic flairs for skills into the crown store. (you can judge me...I judge me every time I buy a new Notable House). I only run with four main characters, and cycle out a bunch of low level characters (deleting and replacing them whenever they get past level 20, so I can do my random daily dungeons quickly. A bunch of high level characters means a bunch of long , drawn out dungeons, that I'm not wasting time doing on every character, but I do need those transmute crystals, so got to do what I got to do.) I figure the scribing grind won't feel as bad or as expensive with just four mains. I sure as hell wouldn't try to do it for 20 characters.

[@pinkmachine9264]

The Fox at 11:00 is so goofy I wonder how the heck he got there at the first place Kaan xD

[@NinjaPulls]

A pretty memorable character - ZOS really went big on whimsy with parts of this story!

Are they dropping from masterwrits too? I think I saw something like that, but maybe it didn't go to live? Anyway, great guide

There is no too much gold in the console economy, we definitely do not need gold sinks. This is gonna be so expensive lol Great guide thanks! Gonna be saving up dailies to turn in

nice presentation.. appreciate. However, how to use scribes? Do they replace current skill or is it in addition too? Thanks.

[@NinjaPulls]

Thank you! The scribed skills are brand new, but yes - if you want to use them, you do have to slot them on your bars.

[@chillievans]

If your maxing out 20 alts, you need to GO OUTSIDE

[@NinjaPulls]

Hahaha!

[@graemepavelka2339]

Thank you for posting ...ink drops. Z says rare ... I say EXTREMELY rare. I have had a few drop, BUT, that was from a LOT of mobs, AND a lot of harvesting nodes. I have done the relevant wings to unlock those drops. And maybe, they ONLY drop if that particular character has run those wings. Would be nice if peeps could confirm that idea.

[@NinjaPulls]

They definitely SHOULD drop for any character. The upgrade is account-wide, but ZOS already confirmed that it's not dropping as often as it should and that'll be fixed soon. Hope that helps - good luck!

[@RedBattalion9000]

So simply say, it's a new custom skill line, right? Looking for "parts" through the Tamriel, and build custom skill like the Enchant crafting?

[@splder5430]

So, sorry to be dumb, but: If I only want Wield Soulwith Stun, Major Sorcery and Oblivion damage.. how hard is that going to be to obtain/how long will that take?

[@NinjaPulls]

The script drop is random, so there is no way of telling.

[@JynxedKoma]

Grimoire is the *BASS*

[@ivywhittaker1508]

Will this be useful to Stam players? Also this is tied to the infinite archives?

[@xvrype4348]

you can buy some verses in IA i believe. and yes this is useful for stam 100%

[@marcocivalerian9099]

Do i need to own gold road or else i cant scribe skills??

[@pinkmachine9264]

Yes Sir

[@NinjaPulls]

Yes.

[@xvrype4348]

great video, great system. but MAN, that grind is horrendous. I hope ZOS changes this in the future because this seems so arbitrary and unfun tbh

[@superduperbeans1234]

I might be really lucky, but I think each quest type has one guaranteed drop per day. Two days in a row, I have gotten one from each of the daily types (Delve, World Boss, and World Event) AND one from each of the guild dailys (Undaunted, Fighter's Guild, and Mage's Guild), for a guaranteed 6 each day. I haven't done any of the PVP quest ypes to check those, but I imagine the same is true of those. So, assuming all that is true, you can get up to nine per day guaranteed instead of just three, so the grind time is SIGNIFICANTLY less.

[@NinjaPulls]

Yes. The drop rate has certainly increased since Gold Road went live. We haven’t been able to confirm whether it’s a confirmed drop rate of 9 a day, as some players have reported not getting every drop. We should be able to confirm soon though. Thank you for the feedback 🤩

[@tarocalypse]

THIS is what I needed. In game… confusing and lacking in clarity. Yes I know story exposition clouds things… many thanks

[@NinjaPulls]

Thanks! Glad you like the vid 🤩

[@robertjackson2700]

Personally, I feel like this has a lot more.... longevity and instrumentality than the Psijic skill line.

[@NinjaPulls]

Agreed. 👍

[@mrpoketokyo]

So i dont need to finish the indrik wing on each alt for them to be able to scribe? Just the intro part 😅

[@NinjaPulls]

Yes. That’s right. Just the intro in the alts (provided you did the whole scribing quest on one of your chars 😝).

[@mrpoketokyo]

ZOS "Welcome new player, I hope you have a spare 10 years to grind all your characters through all the skill lines and for aĺ the mythics"

[@TheAlphaOmegaX3]

lol no. I moved from PS4 to Series X starting over. I completed 5 years on PS4 in 1 year on Xbox due to knowledge. Once you know what to do you can fly. It's not that big of a deal. The most casual mmo ever.

[@adamrussell658]

The questline was fun but I havent actually used any of the skills yet. Since Im a bow nightblade I bought vault, but then never used it. I still prefer the skills I already had.

[@NinjaPulls]

Yeah. I’m using a few of the skills in certain situations, but they’re not ‘needed’ or OP. Which I think is a good thing… but perhaps a little underwhelming.

[@williamdowding3343]

Great guide, but isn't the max nr of ch 18 not 20?

[@NinjaPulls]

Thank you! And well - I do have 20 🤩

[@williamdowding3343]

@@NinjaPulls ouch. it says only 18 .... wonder if they stopped that. well done then!

[@clark8712]

@@williamdowding3343 i had a big war with them over slots...but I ended up getting my 20. For some reason, when you buy all the dlc, they don't give you slots that you got with older dlc. They coulda done away with it entirely. I had xbox version and had my 20 and couldn't figure out why I didn't on PC. Took a month to get it worked out. They finally caved.

[@girlfromshikahr2745]

Feels better that I only have one character.

[@Lura9561]

Can u do the arcinist dps build update with the scribing?

[@NinjaPulls]

The DPS guides on our website have been updated for Gold Road. As scribing is very situational I am not including it in the general setups. Feel free to hop in our Discord though, I’m sure we can come up with a fun build, if that’s what you’d like: discord.com/invite/ninjapulls

[@laowai735]

So, what is Scribing again?

[@comradearturs6407]

Spellcrafting. U can make ur own spells and shit

[@nemesis7884]

Seems it will only make sense to unlock very specific scribing skills that you want on alt characters...but scripts beung randon drops? Makes this difficult...buying is an option but everyone wants probably the same such as bleed, lingering torment etc.

[@NinjaPulls]

Spot on! Working on role specific vids and what to grimoires/scripts to focus on 🤩

[@ACamaroGuy]

I have the poison effect glyph thing but I can't find it to use. How do I use it? Does my weapon matter?

[@NinjaPulls]

Glyph? Are we talking scribing?

[@ACamaroGuy]

@@NinjaPulls yes. I just couldn't remember what the heck all that stuff's called. I think it's the focus script?

[@NinjaPulls]

@@ACamaroGuy Each Grimoire is tied to a skill line, so yes - the weapon does matter. You need to have completed the scribing quest to access all of the Grimoires and then collect the various scripts (you need at least 1 script of the 3 types for the skill to work). Then you use the altar in the Scholarium to make the skill and just slot it in your bar.

[@ACamaroGuy]

@@NinjaPulls Ok, I'm using a lightning staff on my HA StamSorc. When I go to the scribing station, under weapon I am using elemental explosion. This is the only option I have. My focus script, is shock damage. My signature script is assassins misery. My affix script is off balance. Why am I not able to see the poison focus I picked up? I'm playing the heavy attack one bar build. My lightning staff has the absorb stamina enchantment glyph. When my staff procs the glyph, I was hoping to be able to use the poison focus so that it will work with my glyph.

[@NinjaPulls]

@@ACamaroGuy Not all scripts and grimoires are combinable. Also - just in case - if you eat the script on one DD, it will only be available on that character.

[@ratholin]

I get six scripts doing mages and fighter's guild and undaunted delve dailies, along with the three for northern elseweyre zone dailies. every single day.

[@NinjaPulls]

The drop seems to have been increased, which is great! 😊

[@khajiithasskooma]

So the Luminous Ink and Class Script Scraps went live in a different manner than what this guide indicates. You only get 12 Luminous Ink from completing the all the wings. For the Class Script Scraps, it appears you only get one guaranteed per day from all the sources, not each. I did about 20 master writs, pledges across multiple characters, one run of IA and was not able to get another. Spent another day on my gathering character, and only got 1 Luminous Ink.

[@NinjaPulls]

You're right about the Ink. I was working with PTS and had no other way to test this, so that's where that number came from. Shame it's not more. As for the Scraps, I never said anything about guaranteed drops. What I can say is that I've been getting 3-5 a day from clearing Lucent Citadel, so that seems to be a good source.

Unless I can scribe new/different animals for my Warden animal line I don't want or need this expac. 😤

[@nodders6830]

Well , that's put me right off with 12 chars . Rather do the psijic line on all my chars which doesn't look too bad at this point .

[@NinjaPulls]

I wouldn't go that far. Maxing Psijic takes hours - I've done it 20 times and it sucks. This is WAY better. 4 minutes and you're unlocked - the grind/cost is only an issue if you want ALL Scripts on ALL characters.

[@sadplatinum7552]

i cant help but feel a little let down that there are no class grimoires available.

[@NinjaPulls]

I expect they’ll be coming. Class balance is not great at the moment, so I think ZOS were smart to start small and not break anything.

[@user-tp4ii6hs3l]

Companions, Tales of Tribute are both unpopular systems...a little scary that you compared this to them...one thing in common. They all cost $40 to get.

No comparison. Just a reminder that these things tend to grow. Pay closer attention 😊

[@fallen5771]

Sorry but I love both those systems, ESO players just refuse to grind and expect things handed to them

[@user-tp4ii6hs3l]

@@fallen5771 To each their own, I mean there are people who gamble away their lives and love meth but I don't have to like a world that encourages those behaviors any more than I have to accept or like a game that purposefully creates discomfort just to make money. ESO uses game design decisions, they create lore, and story just to encourage more spending rather than admitting they have already made 2 billion and should be focusing on making the best game, not focusing on how they can manipulate players and design systems to force spending. There are plenty of companies that understand that there is a moral responsibility to not manipulate and take advantage of other people, even stupid people who love to grind mindlessly because they aren't mature enough to know they are being manipulated. Eventually you will realize that the grind was designed to get you to pay more, instead of writing great stories, with great graphics, atmosphere, gameplay..with intelligence loops to make it repayable. They just release the same grinds and charge hundreds of dollars a year to not fall behind.
