The mod lets you scribe copies of scrolls and skill-books in your inventory without having to re-craft them from scratch. If you hate waiting hours for traders to restock to find the right ingredients for your favourite scrolls; or maybe you just love roleplaying a scroll-mage that wants to mass-produce and build a monopoly by selling chicken-claw scrolls. If so, then this mod is for you.
- NEW Script-Extender
The mod has been recently updated (/rewritten) to use the script-extender. This enables the mod to dynamically generate scribing recipes for vanilla and modded scrolls-&-skillbooks. Unfortunately there was no easy way to maintain compatibility with existing saves. As such using the updated version can cause issues for existing playthroughs. If the update causes issues, you can enable the legacyCompatibilityMode
in Osiris Data/S7Central.json
. You only need to do this if you wish to continue a playthrough you started with this mod's previous version and are experiencing problems. Any new-games should have it turned off. I apologize for the inconvinence caused. The mod might work as in legacyMode
if you don't have the script-extender.
The mod allows you to use Inkpots-&-Quills to copy any skill-book on a blank skill-book of the corresponding type and tier. So you can preserve the knowledge and share it among your party members before you inevitably devour it. or you could just sell the copies for profits.
Adds a generic BlankSkillbook for Warfare, Huntsman and Rogue skills. ( While making this mod I realized that there were no Blank Skillbooks for them, so I had to make a new one. This book also works for higher-tier skills.)
To copy scrolls you also need the corresponding Elemental-Essence (Air Essence, Shadow Essence, Tormented Soul etc.) in addition to the Original Scroll, Inkpots-and-Quills and a Sheet of paper. This puts some limitation on how many scrolls you can scribe, without having to pray to RNGesus for the crafting ingredients. Essences are a finite but readily available resource.
Note: You don't need chicken-claws, nails or large-antlers etc. to scribe a scroll, like you would for crafting them, you just need the Essence. Source Skills require Source-Orbs instead of Essences. Scribing a scroll or skill-book will not consume the original, this mod wouldn't be much of an upgrade otherwise.
- Cutting Tool + Feather = Quill
- Quill + Inkpot = Inkpot-&-Quill (Shocking, I know)
- Original Scroll + Inkpot-&-Quill + Blank Paper Sheet + Corresponding Essence/SourceOrb = Original Scroll + New Scroll
- Original Skillbook + Inkpot-&-Quill + Corresponding Blank Skill Book = Original Skillbook + New Skillbook
- Q: Does this work with modded skill books and scrolls?
- A:
I'm sorry, No. The mod just contains recipes for base-game skills and scrolls because I had to create the recipes for each scroll and skill by hand. This was pretty much my first mod and I don't know of a better way to make crafting recipes. So you can't scribe modded skill books and scrolls unless I or someone else makes these crafting recipes for them. I might be willing to do it if I find the time and motivation; and the permission of the respective mod-authors. - YES! Thanks to amazing script-extender the mod can now dynamically generate scribing recipes for modded scrolls and skillbooks. T&C apply.
