Crafting the Elusive Loremaster Treasure Card: A Comprehensive Guide
The question of where to craft the Loremaster Treasure Card (TC) is a common one among Wizards in the Spiral. Unlike many other treasure cards that are crafted directly at a crafting table, the Loremaster TC follows a unique path. You don’t actually craft the card itself; instead, you craft the recipe for the Loremaster spell. This recipe, once learned, allows you to train the Loremaster spell or create the Loremaster TC.
The key is to visit Grady in Avalon, specifically in the Dun Scaith instance within The Wyrd. You must have defeated the Indigo Giant to unlock this opportunity. This is the only way to obtain the recipe and is crucial for players between levels 70-85 and anyone higher who may have missed it. Once you have the recipe, you can then craft the Loremaster TC at a crafting table using the required reagents.
Obtaining the Loremaster Spell Recipe
Grady in Avalon: Your Recipe Vendor
The journey begins in Avalon, specifically within the Dun Scaith instance in The Wyrd. After defeating the Indigo Giant, you’ll gain access to Grady. Grady acts as the recipe vendor for the Loremaster spell, selling the recipe you need to train the spell or craft the treasure card. It’s crucial to note that he is not in a readily accessible area; you must progress through the Avalon storyline to encounter him in this specific location. Once you have purchased the recipe, it is permanently added to your crafting repertoire. This means that you don’t need to buy the recipe every time you want to create the spell.
Crafting the Loremaster Treasure Card
Crafting Table: Your Alchemical Workspace
After acquiring the recipe from Grady, you can use any crafting table to create the Loremaster TC. If you don’t already have one, you can obtain a Basic Crafting Station from Eudora during the quest tutorial for crafting. If you sold this one, you can buy a new crafting table from furniture shopkeepers in Krokotopia, Mooshu, Marleybone, and Dragonspyre, or from the Bazaar. To craft the Loremaster TC, go to your crafting table, click on the treasure card icon at the top right, and select the Loremaster recipe from the displayed list. You will need to have the required reagents to complete the craft.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Here are some frequently asked questions about the Loremaster and crafting the Loremaster Treasure Card, providing further clarity and guidance:
1. Where exactly is the Loremaster boss located?
The Loremaster boss herself is found in The Atheneum, Dragonspyre, specifically in her chamber (an instance). To access her chamber, you will need to unlock the quest “The Lore Master,” which is unlocked by completing the storylines of Wizard City, Krokotopia, Marleybone, and Mooshu.
2. How do I get the “The Lore Master” quest?
To unlock the quest leading to the Loremaster boss, you must have completed the storyline quests for Wizard City, Krokotopia, Marleybone, and Mooshu. You need to progress through the main quest line of these worlds. Prioritizing these quests over side quests, such as those in Grizzleheim, is recommended for speed.
3. What do I need to craft a treasure card in Wizard101?
To craft any treasure card, you need a crafting table and the correct reagents listed in the recipe. Once you have those items, go to the crafting table, select the treasure card icon, and choose the treasure card you want to craft.
4. How do I obtain a crafting table?
Eudora gives you a free Basic Crafting Station early in the game. It appears in your backpack with your other furniture items. If you’ve lost it, you can purchase another Basic Crafting Table from furniture shopkeepers in Krokotopia, Mooshu, Marleybone, and Dragonspyre, or from the Bazaar.
5. Is the Loremaster boss difficult to solo?
The Loremaster boss can be soloed with the right strategy. Many players recommend focusing on her minions first. For a Balance wizard, using two sandstorms boosted with gargantua is a common method. It may require a few attempts and deck adjustments.
6. Do I need to complete all Loremaster achievements on a single character?
Loremaster Achievements have specific sub-achievements linked to your character’s faction. You can complete the sub-achievements for the overall achievement on different characters, but each sub-achievement must be completed on the corresponding character type.
7. How rare is the Loremaster spell drop from the boss?
The chance of getting a regular Loremaster spell from the boss is roughly about every 70 battles. However, seasonal spells from her have a much higher chance of dropping (about every 20 battles).
8. How useful is Loremaster?
Loremaster is essential for identifying unidentified gear found throughout the game. Once you progress further, these items are vital. This ensures that you can use them without having to return to town, and the skills also show more detailed enemy information.
9. What is the best class for farming the Loremaster?
The Druid class is often considered the best for farming the Loremaster due to its powerful ranged attacks, which can often one-shot enemies, making the process faster and more efficient.
10. Can the Loremaster drop permanent spells?
While she used to drop multiple permanent spells, the Loremaster now only drops the Headless Horseman Spell during the Halloween event. She now drops spellements instead.
11. Can I get Pigsie from the Loremaster?
Yes, the Loremaster can drop several spells, including life spells like Luminous Weaver, Goat Monk, Pigsie, and Ratatoskr’s Spin. These spells are not guaranteed, so they might require repeated farming.
12. Can I acquire the Loremaster spell on multiple characters?
Yes, you can craft the recipe and train the spell on multiple characters. The meta achievements can be gained through all the characters in your account.
13. Does the Loremaster drop the Krampus spell?
Yes, the Krampus spell is available from the Loremaster all year round, making it easier to farm and upgrade this spell with the spellement drops.
14. What is the maximum level of Loremaster needed?
The Loremaster skill doesn’t have a max level needed. The Loremaster skill just affects the amount of information you get about the enemy and the level of items you can identify.
15. Where can I find a crafting table?
You get a free Basic Crafting Station from Eudora. If you sold yours, you can purchase one from furniture shopkeepers in Krokotopia, Mooshu, Marleybone, and Dragonspyre, or from the Bazaar. You must first have unlocked those worlds to purchase them.
Conclusion
Crafting the Loremaster Treasure Card requires a specific process that involves a trip to Avalon to obtain the recipe from Grady. Unlike typical treasure card crafting, you’re crafting the recipe that then allows the card to be created or the spell to be trained at a crafting table. Remember to defeat the Indigo Giant, seek out Grady in Dun Scaith, and ensure you have the necessary reagents. With this knowledge, you’ll be well-equipped to master the elusive Loremaster TC and the powerful spell that comes with it. Happy crafting, wizards!
