Haven't checked to see if this applies to other Clerics, but Clerics of Talos have an additional dialogue option at the third Wisdom save, allowing a DC 10 instead of a DC 20. unsigned comment by GrouchyOldGeezer (talk) 15:50, 15 October 2023

Give to Astarion?[edit source]

In my own game I'm having an issue where Astarion asks for the book, but the option to give it to him does not appear. I tried dismissing other party members in case they were somehow interfering, but even solo with Astarion, it doesn't show. Possibly this is because my char doesn't know he's a vampire yet? Can anyone shed light on this?

Third book page[edit source]

Not only Shadowheart as a cleric of Shar gets this additional option for the third page. Other clerics with an evil god, e.g. Talos, also get this option. Shadowheart as a paladin also gets this option. unsigned comment by 95.223.107.29 (talk) 20:35, 10 November 2023

Tharchiate Codex[edit source]

After reading the Tharchiate Codex reader of the Necromancy of Thay will receive Danse Macbre after successful completion of a wisdom check. unsigned comment by 73.72.64.151 (talk) 23:08, 22 November 2023

3 saving throws passed[edit source]

Trying to read the book of the Thay of course. It took me 56 tries and I was able to pass all three saving throws.Yet It still slammed shut and the quest is still marked uncompleted. I read all three pages. So what did I do wrong?


Also I could not make an account it asks for a rogues name under "more info" for a verification check andt that just pulls up the captcha page. Nothing on it mentions La'zael or any rogues. unsigned comment by 104.174.32.174 (talk) 01:52, 5 December 2023

Hey, if you're still in act 1 or 2 you can't fully unlock the tome yet; you need to reach the lower city in act 3. See: Unlock the Ancient Tome.
As for making an account, you just need to type the answer to the question in the input box (so for e.g. the name of a rogue would probably be astarion). -Twyrine (talk) 02:27, 5 December 2023 (CET)Reply[reply]

Laduger cleric[edit source]

As a cleric of Laduger you will also get the option to embrace the darkness and get a 10 DC wisdom ability check.

Slight issue with the [ACT 3 SPOILERS] section[edit source]

The curse attained by failing the DC20 roll to fully read the Necromancy of Thay is not called "Baleful Knowledge" as before, it's called "Whispers of Madness". Here's a screenshot of the curse: https://i.imgur.com/AXJjHQd.png
