[@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 🤩

There’s no need to wait with scribing. You can get the quest done and then you’ll be ready to collect scripts as you do your dailies, etc. But there is also absolutely no rush! If you want to get to know the game and your character, then absolutely do that.

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!

[@bigsawdust4726]

Ink drops for me on several characters, and I have only done the quests on one, in case anyone is reading this wondering. In the span of a month, while casually picking up resources and just going about my usual game activities, I have gotten 50+ luminous ink - with the plentiful resource champion point slotted, ofc. So I think it just comes down to RNG, because that’s far more than I need, I’ve been mostly selling it.

[@NinjaPulls]

@@bigsawdust4726 yes indeed they changed the drop rate drastically since this video was posted. Thanks for posting!

[@RichHill-xt4rc]

So I got the gold road chapter a week ago , I’ve completed the whole quest line on one character , my issue is we’ll say my confusion , if I do my dailies on one character does that mean if I go on an alt I’ll still be gaurenteed a drop ? Because I’ve just ran a random vet dungeon and I got a drop with my healer ?

[@NinjaPulls]

I’m assuming we’re talking about scripts. Dungeons shouldn’t be dropping scripts. Just the ones mentioned in the video and once per account/per day.

[@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.

Ok, so: My Bank is choked with Affix, Focus and Signature. I did the Main Quest with a random character and now I did the Intro Quest (I think...) with my main Crafter. When I try co create spells with my Main Crafter, it says that I do not own any of that stuff I actually have in the Bank... Confused AF. I tried getting some of the Affix, Focus and Signature items from my Bank, on my Main Crafter, but they are grayed out.

[@NinjaPulls]

In order to scribe skills, you actually need to consume the scripts on that character. Scripts are not account wide.

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

[@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.

[@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.

[@stopzyou]

The skill style changes should also change the look of the skill-icon on the ability bars.. I was looking forward to this kinda more than the actually effect change in combat.. I hope they still implement it

[@NinjaPulls]

Yeah that's been implemented - the ability icon also changes when you select a different skill style.

[@stopzyou]

@@NinjaPulls hmmm... okay, Ill check again, maybe I did something wrong, last time I did, It still showed me old icon and only the effect of (for example) the Bear Trap changed after going off ^^

[@smasherlol351]

The gold making part is the hardest if you are a new player. Since the ingame economy is down like all the well selling things cost less now. Just selling of the things are getting harder.

[@NinjaPulls]

Absolutely! The longer you play, the more gold you have. Just from playing. The good thing is, there’s no rush with scribing, so just take your time 🤩

[@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.

[@Shenvalleyboi]

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.

[@xvrype4348]

How is gold easy? Takes me forever to get 500k. Im not an everyday player. One day a week. So what's the easiest way?

There are MANY ways to grind gold, but it's not a good use of your time. I recommend just playing the game - dungeons, trials, PvP... almost anything. Gold and tradeable stuff drops like crazy. Crafting writs are good too, but it depends how many characters you have!

@@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.

You have to remember that in an mmo, you have to cater to the die hard fans. Most of the people I know who play ESO, have been playing for 7-10 years. You have to keep your player base entertained for a large amount of time, MMO101

[@leshreddur]

I am just starting and this is too complex and not helping.

[@drakelance7182]

The way they set up Scribing was to get players to play card game and run IA repeatedly to get scripts needed that is why the vendor is in IA, a serious crap shoot for players NOT interested in card game or IA

[@NinjaPulls]

Not sure what you mean. I just bought all the scripts from the vendor in the Scholarium. Finished all 20 twenty characters a few weeks ago. Never bought any in IA. And nor have I ever touched ToT. Of course you can save the gold and grind via dailies, but gold is easy to get in ESO so I highly recommend the zero-effort route if you can.

[@sbr-synrosimbugracing9338]

This isn't so bad. Play Black Desert if you want to see what grinding really is.

[@NinjaPulls]

Oh yeah absolutely - ESO has always been FAR better than the average MMO for grind. That's why I think this isn't entirely intentional.

[@adrienaliphon9766]

This the one, I just came from BDO, I have about 10k hours and ESO is a breeze an n me extremely fun

[@tom634eso]

Way to complicated/ grindy / not really useful, not hyped at all

[@AdamDeZee]

I thought you said this was a basic beginners guide. I'm halfway through it and I dont understand half of what you are saying and I'm left with so many more questions that you did not answer. If you are gonna claim to have all the answers THEN HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS!!!! The only thing I have learned about scribing is that it is a total time sink. Even in trying to find answers online you have to wade through guides like these that dont give you any answers you seek thus taking more time to sink into this. Thanks for nothing

I love pay to win mechanics in my games, who needs skill when you can buy power? From Antiquities to Classes, and now scribing what new power feature will ESO release by a paywall next? Stay rich to learn more!
