    I'v been seeding several more books to determine the rate at which these monsters will turn mystic. After 20ish books it appears to be 50% chance. I got a balron to take one but it didn't turn mystic, maybe next time! :D

    Such a cool event. The kind of event that players enjoy doing and not having to burn themselves out on. Great job @Keza and everyone else involved making this happen.

    Since the questions are being asked I will go over some things. Each time a set of 26 books is turned in for a mystic spellbook, those 26 books are re-seeded into the world. Based on the numbers, this process can only continue for another 1-3 months at the most. Listed below are the numbers of hued books remaining vs. generated:
    • hue 1403 - 101/108 blue
    • hue 1440 - 94/108 green
    • hue 1652 - 92/108 red
    • hue 2125 - 90/108 yellow
    • hue 2107 - 118/135 white
    • hue 2111 - 126/135 brown
    A total of 81 books have decayed already, and im sure more will over time. To my knowledge there is also 52 books being held as house deco. Likely many more sitting in peoples banks who have no idea what they are for.

    Found a mystic wrym instead of a white wrym.

    Pretty strong almost like a fluffy.

    Only after killing it did I think about trying to tame it.

    Please tell me that it was not tameable.

    Thanks.

    We made sure to include a feature "turn-off tamable" on all mobs that go mystic. Mystic dragons and WWs can never be tamed.

    All of the mystics have books on them.

    The process of picking up the book changes them into mystics so they will not just spawn by themselves.

    The book is on the corpse outside the container which means you can not get it with a random steal.

    Today I ran out of books to seed for the first time. Until another Mystic Spellbook is summoned, you will see less and less mystic monster around. This marks the third part of this collection quest.
    1. Mystic books found on random normal monsters.
    2. Mystic books found on random normal monsters and mystic monsters.
    3. Mystic books found on mystic monsters only.
    This means from now on ALL seeded books will turn monsters mystic. Everyone has been enjoying the more difficult monsters, and there is less chance for more books to decay this way. According to the hued books listed, 91 of 702 total books have decayed on monster corpses. Completing a collection will only get more difficult over time, eventually they will be split up between so many people that further turn-ins are impossible.

    Currently 13 mystic spellbooks in game, my goal in starting this was 15-20 spellbooks total. While it may go over 20 spellbooks in the long run, these will always have value and never be obtainable later on.

    Will there be a limit to how long someone can turn in a full set for a spellbook? I know some are using for deco, and say two years from now they sell the deco set, could that set then be turned in for a book?

    Hmmm, I will make a cut-off date. Maybe by the end of this year, that is TBD.
