The first Achievement we'll be treating here is [Well Read] and is a rather monumental task. Best would be to try and get these done as you visit their different locations. I have grouped them by telling you one location per book (there may be other locations for these books but this is the one I used): STORMWIND (START HERE, MOST BOOKS ANYWHERE IN GAME) - Aegwynn and the Dragon Hunt: Royal Library in Stormwind Keep - Aftermath of the Second War: Royal Library in Stormwind Keep - Beyond the Dark Portal: Royal Library in Stormwind Keep - Civil War in the Plaguelands: Royal Library in Stormwind Keep - The Alliance of Lordaeron: Royal Library in Stormwind Keep - The Guardians of Tirisfal: Royal Library in Stormwind Keep - The New Horde: Royal Library in Stormwind Keep - The Waking World and the Well of Eternity: Royal Library in Stormwind Keep - The Battle of Grim Batol: War Room (next to throne room) in Stormwind Keep - The Dark Portal and the Fall of Stormwind: War Room in Stormwind Keep - War of the Spider: War Room in Stormwind Keep - Archimonde's Return and the Flight to Kalimdor: Academy of Arcane Arts and Sciences In Stormwind (near Stockade) ELWYNN FOREST - Icecrown and the Frozen Throne: Goldshire Inn in Elwynn Forest - Lethargy of the Orcs: Eastvale Logging Camp (2nd floor of largest building) in Elwynn Forest - Rise of the Blood Elves: Tower of Azora in Elwynn Forest WESTFALL - The Last Guardian: Sentinel Hill Inn in Westfall DUSKWOOD (DARKSHIRE) - Kil'jaeden and the Shadow Pact: Scarlet Raven Tavern (2nd floor) in Duskwood - Mount Hyjal and Illidan's Gift: Scarlet Raven Tavern (2nd floor) in Duskwood - The Founding of Quel'Thalas: Scarlet Raven Tavern in Duskwood - The Birth of the Lich King: Darkshire Town Hall in Duskwood BOOTY BAY - Sunwell - The Fall of Quel'Thalas: Salty Sailor Tavern (upstairs) in Booty Bay - The Scourge of Lordaeron: A building in Booty Bay (not sure where, but it's in a bookcase) - The Sentinels and the Long Vigil: Booty Bay (same building as the other one but 2 floors higher) - Wrath of Soulflayer: Booty Bay (same building) IRONFORGE (HALL OF EXPLORERS) - Arathor and the Troll Wars: Hall of Explorers in Ironforge - Charge of the Dragonflights: Hall of Explorers in Ironforge - Ironforge - the Awakening of the Dwarves: Hall of Explorers in Ironforge - Rise of the Horde: Hall of Explorers in Ironforge - The Old Gods and the Ordering of Azeroth: Hall of Explorers in Ironforge - War of the Three Hammers: Hall of Explorers in Ironforge SCARLET MONASTERY - Kel'Thuzad and the Forming of the Scourge: Athenaeum in Scarlet Monastery (or southshore inn (it may still be there?)) GADGETZAN - Empires' Fall: Gadgetzan (Inn) in Tanaris [or somewhere in Booty Bay] - The Twin Empires: Gadgetzan (Inn) in Tanaris - Old Hatreds - The Colonization of Kalimdor: Gadgetzan (near Gryphon post (easily overlooked)) DARNASSUS - Exile of the High Elves: Cenarion Enclave in Darnassus (near rogues trainer) - The Betrayer Ascendant: Tradesmen Terrace in Darnassus (backrow building opposite cloth vendor house) - The War of the Ancients: Craftsmen Terrace in Darnassus (2nd floor of a building) - The World Tree and the Emerald Dream: Craftsmen Terrace in Darnassus ASHENVALE - Sargeras and the Betrayal: Astranaar in Ashenvale (on floor behind table SCHOLOMANCE - WESTERN PLAGUELANDS - The Invasion of Draenor: SCHOLOMANCE! - upon entering, kill the two guards in the first area then go stealth and jump off the elevated area (book is to the left and on the ledge that runs around the wall (it's red, you'll see it). - The Lich King Triumphant: SCHOLOMANCE! - Reliquary, on a table on the far end of the main room - The Seven Kingdoms: SCHOLOMANCE! - Reliquary, table near entrance |

The Second (and final) Achievement to be treated here is [Higher Learning] and is based in Dalaran. 1. WHY DO THIS? For one, it's neat. You can use the fact that you attained a Dalaran Mastery in the Schools of Arcane Magic. The Achievement awards you a book [The Schools of Arcane Magic - Mastery] which allows you to teleport to (and from) a spire atop Violet Citadel (unreacheable otherwise). In this spire, you then receive a [Kirin Tor Familiar] (this is a non-combat pet) for free. 2. BASIC CONCEPT: 1) There are 8 spawning points in Dalaran where books can appear 2) Every 3-4 hours, a book spawns in each of these spots 3) When a book is spawned but not read, the 3-4 hour timer is paused 4) There are 8 books needed for the Achievement, but there are many more books that can spawn (these fake books are usually very funny to read) 5) Once you find a book and read it, it'll remain for 3mins before vanishing. Announce where the book spawned in the Dalaran general channel cos for those 3mins that book remains readeable (just say for example: "Violet Gate REAL book now up!") 6) Some realms have channels such as /join bookclub, /join mastery, /join higherlearning. I don't know what name is used on Darkmoon Faire though. 3. LOCATIONS: - The Schools of Arcane Magic - Introduction: Violet Gate (the room with the crystal to teleport to the ground) [It's on the floor next to the bookcase without the chair next to it (right hand side if you enter from the street)] - The Schools of Arcane Magic - Abjuration: Dalaran Visitor Center (across from fountain) [on the ground next to a small table (near the entry)] - The Schools of Arcane Magic - Conjuration: Violet Citadel, Ground level (right behind Archmage Aethas Sunreaver) [on the bottom shelf of the bookcase] - The Schools of Arcane Magic - Divination: Violet Citadel, 2nd floor (left hand side (side with portal to Caverns of Time), inbetween the two bookcases) - The Schools of Arcane Magic - Enchantment: 2nd Floor balcony of "Threads of Fate" on a crate (If you're going down the stairs of Violet Citadel, it's the balcony directly infront of you) - The Schools of Arcane Magic - Illusion: Violet Hold, on a crate in the corner (next to Archmage Timear (who gives daily regular dungeon quests)) - The Schools of Arcane Magic - Necromancy: Legerdemain Inn, 2nd floor (the room with two beds, it spawns on a shelf of the empty bookcase) - The Schools of Arcane Magic - Transmutation: Legerdemain Inn, 1st floor (the empty bookcase near the west entrance) 4. MAP This map, shows screenshots of where the books are, as well as a map of Dalaran with the spots indicated: Map with screenshots 5. Add-On? WoWwikia suggests: "Dalaran University" (which synchronizes the most up-to-date times tracked by individuals who have installed the Higher Learning addon.) ==> Now, this would have one downside. If nobody on our realm has this one, then it's useless. Edited by Odaner, Jan 10 2011, 01:25 PM.
