2. Broken Valley, Rivertown, Folo's Tavern 3rd floor strange tomb, follow steps to fireplace.


How do you mean? Folo? Has he a Tavern? Folo with his "pigs"?
You mean "Tim" I suppose? Tim of the Black Boar Inn? But I didn't found there a skillbook ... smirk

I go for a look next time! laugh

It is on the top floor of the Black board in, the door that is locked, on the table is a "Strange Volume" pick it up and read it.

Volumes:
nr1. Go down to Tim, the book is on his counter in the bar.
nr2. Look 2nd floor, near the merchant of Leiken it should be on top of the pile of other books.
nr3. Look in the fireplace of the black boar inn, skill book in the fire.

And skill book only appears after you read the 3rd volume...

not sure it is in that order, but it should help alot. smile

Little correction, I dont think its known as rivertown. Black boar inn, broken valley village. And I think folo is the pig guy if not mistake, had nothing to do with the tavern/inn.

I think gamefaqs has an faq on all mind read. You can actually refer to that. I basically spam quick save and load for mind read, so there actually not much references need in it.

Just a few corrections. ZixZax Is located outside the Maxos Temple, not the Temple of Doom. Also why is the two volume's quest under mind-read? You don't need to mind read to get the book. Finally, mind-reading the librarian allows you to read the book beneath him which gets you 2 stat points.

What I mean with Dragon Form, is that it is after you get the Battle Tower. and some areas are unlocked and other locked.

Just found a dragon skill book among one of the wyvern nests near the battle tower. There's about a dozen of them and some are hard to spot. Best way to land is to just hover above one and drop down on it. A bunch of chests and a few corpses can be found among them if you look.

To find the book morph outside the battle tower and hover directly above the only waypoint shrine in that area. The nest is to the south, you should be able to see it right across from you about 50 feet away from the shrine.

I'm on the xbox so if someone with a PC sees it maybe you could post a picture to make it easier for other people to find.
