Reward from the achievement : Higher Learning

Commentaire de Slavaa

Use this book to achieve higher learning.

How does this book teach you higher learning? Why it teleports you into the tallest spires of Dalaran of course.

*Crickets*

Tough crowd

And there's a typo on it: This spell only work in the City of Dalaran.

Sounds like an ogre wrote it.

Edit: In beta (and possibly in early live) this typo was present, but I'm keeping it here because it's funny.

Ironic that the representation of a lifelong quest for becoming well read results in a tome with obvious grammar problems.

Commentaire de katora

I notice that this doesn't say Bind on Pickup, is it tradeable? Or this is an oversight that will be fixed before live. Otherwise I see no reason why I couldn't do this on bank alts, and sell this in trade chat.

Commentaire de Hazu

Of possibly only trivial interest: I checked the map whilst in Archmage Vargoth's Retreat, and his chamber seems to occupy the summit of the southern tower of the Violet Citadel - the tower on the left as you face the Citadel on the front steps. It's opposite the Purple Parlor and essentially the same size, but higher up.

There's a non-functional door in the chamber, but according to the map, it would open to the outside of the tower rather than into the central spire. If you look up whilst in the chamber, you can see a ring of bookshelves below a blue stained-glass skylight, so he seems to be right at the top.

Edit: I did a visual survey from way back at the Violet Hold with a Spyglass, and his doorway does indeed seem to open onto a balcony. It would seem the only way he can reach his chambers is to teleport there - no wonder he says he's lonely!

Achievement:

Reward:
(Use the book to teleport to a room on top of the Violet Citadal and speak with: Archmage Vargoth)

Archmage Vargoth will reward you with:

Req: (Read the following books, all located throughout Dalaran)

Info:

The books are on spawn timers anywhere from 3 hours to 4 hours

Each book only spawns in one location (so once you find it you do not need to keep checking that location)

Book spawn times are shared with non-achievement books (so you may see a book spawn and it will not be the one you need)

Each location seems to have 2-3 other books (non-achievement) which spawn in that location (randomly)

If you read the book it will disappear within 3min (resetting the spawn timer)

If you do not read the book it will disappear within 5min (resetting the spawn timer)

If an achievement book does spawn, more than one player can read the book and get the credit for reading it. (if they read it within 3min of the first person who read it)

When I find a book I announce it within trade chat so if other would like to read it they can (providing they can get to it within 3min)

Ask around if others are looking for books, group up, spread out to keep your eyes on multiple locations, share spawn timer info (this greatly reduces the amount of running around)

Books (locations):

Location: Dalaran Visitor Center (52.2,55.5), on the floor to the right as you go in, in front of the little table with books on it

Location: Violet Citadel (30.9,46.3), group of bookcases on the right as you go in, Bottom of the left bookcase.

Location: Violet Citadel (26.5,51.7), Up the stairs to the left, on the floor in front of the bookcase, next to the sands of time portal.

Location: Threads of Fate (Cloth Armor shop)(43.6,47.1), Go up stairs out on the balcony on top of a crate to your right as you walk out onto the balcony.

Location: Violet Hold (64.5,52.8), as you go in head to the left and against the wall on the left crate, next to Archmage Timear.

Location: Violet Gate (Crystal Portal)(56.7,46.1), to your right as you enter (northern bookcase) on the floor in front of bookcase.

Location: Legerdermain Lounge (46.9,39.1), Upstairs west room, empty bookcase

Location: Legerdermain Lounge (46.9,39.8), 1st floor western bookcase near the door

Commentaire de Inexorability

To leave the room, use the book again and it will teleport you back to the bottom of the Violet Citadel.

Commentaire de DarthRahn

This item was recently patched to BOP. You can not sell it.

Commentaire de kilorat

What's in the room you get teleported to? Anything cool?

Commentaire de Caedo

Is the room an instance? Because if you got a few locks in there at the same time and summoned some people...

Commentaire de Corepoint

If you need to delete the book for any reason you can, in fact, receive another one by speaking to Rhonin in the Violet Citadel

Commentaire de holytotemic

if you had been paying attention to the posts you dont need the hearth stone....you just click the book again...

Commentaire de thephoenix3000

You need to complete the achievement to receive the pet, A warlock summon will bring you to the room, but you will not get the pet from talking to Archmage Vargoth.

And Archmage Vargoth is exactly the same Vargoth you save at a long quest serie in Netherstorm.

Commentaire de 221343

Since patch 3.0.8 there is a loading screen when teleporting in or out Vargoth's Retreat.

Higher Learning

Congratulations on completing your studies on The Schools of Arcane Magic. In recognition of your dedication, I'm enclosing this special volume completing the series.

I believe you'll find this tome particularly entertaining. But I'll leave that for your discovery.

Sincerely,

Rhonin

Commentaire de 86033

Amazing! There are passages in here that I have never seen before. This must have taken quite a while for you to track down. If you ever find anymore books like this, I would like to be notified immediately.

Please take one of my Kirin Tor Familiars with you just in case you stumble across anything.

Commentaire de Phraid

I found a way to get to the room without having the book, but it seems he won't give you the pet without it. QQ!
Anyway, have fun finding the books. =D

Commentaire de 328751

>.< Only usable in the City of Dalaran. Be sure to know this, someone I know did this achievement just to find out they weren't getting another hearthstone. lol

Commentaire de 306957

Is there some other reason to port to the Archmage's room other than to get your Kirin Tor Familiar pet from him?

Commentaire de Deet580

Hey I'm interested in what this place looks like could any of you people who have please post a video on it :D
thank you

Commentaire de stormeh

Lately what I have done is create a couple of macros that I use when I don't want to be disturbed while I wait for raid or something.

Macro 1 - Leave all channels, port up to Violet Citadel, ahhh, peace and serenity.

Macro 2 - Reverse everything I just did, arghhhhh, chaos and trade chat.

Commentaire de 465890

This 'tome' should be made into a key, don't really want to delete it, but that is 1 slot I could use for other stuff in my bank

Commentaire de shadowdragon986

Let's just hope that he doesn't break his glasses...

After all, he has all the time in the world.

Commentaire de Unlocky

Edit: During Wrath of The Lichking this little trick was the shizzle since Dalaran was the idle-hub for both factions. Since the release of Cataclysm, Dalaran is practically desserted. The Schools of Arcane Magic - Mastery is still a fun vanity item, though.

Ever since I obtained The Schools of Arcane Magic - Mastery I've been teleporting to the tower whenever I want to log out for a while.

Completely lag free and easy way to log into Dalaran :D

Commentaire de 569209

You can check out but you can never leave.......Seems that Vargoth has exchanged one jail for another......with only books to read for all eternity.....and no scrying orb to watch TV....NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! NOW WHO KNOWS WHAT THE DALARAN DESTROYERS WILL DO?:

Commentaire de 577429

Hands up who have flown to a tower in dalaran, dismounted and got stuck, unable to fly off, having to jump down and suffer 10 minutes rs. If you happen to get stuck with this in your bag, you can use it to teleport out. It teleports you here.

Commentaire de Chronokatan

In WoW WotLK Classic this is now a toy and goes into your collection.

If you destroyed the item try talking to Rhonin

At least in Retail he will restore the item. Wasn't able to test myself in WotLK Classic.
