In the Truth faction building I found recipes for: Essence of Doom Aura Rune of Magic Debuff Horde of Bats Punish Corruption Senses of the Bats Glacialflame Mana Cover Are there any others? Drops only? Bloodlines only? I know Devastation Fist was updated in game, so maybe the rest are as well?
Rumor has it all the Bloodline spells that didn't scale automatically have upgrades available in Maj'Dul. I seem to recall that something regarding them dropped...
OOC. Annaelisa just purchased these (or was able to purchase) in the Court of Blades in Maj'Dul, at a cost of 8.4g each (need 30,000 faction with the Court to buy them) :- Sage Level 53 scrolls: Ancient Teaching of: Horde of Bats Ancient Teaching of: Punish Corruption Ancient Teaching of: Mana Cover Ancient Teaching of: Senses of the Bat Ancient Teaching of: Glacialflame Alchemist Level 53 scrolls: Ancient Teaching of: Essence of Doom Jeweler Level 53 scrolls: Ancient Teaching of: Rune of Magic Rebuff
The court-faction purchased ancient teachings scrolls should all be no trade. You will either need to faction up the appropriate crafter, or wait on chest drops of the recipes.

I just updated my list for Sages for (Sage Information) and this is what I have. Ancient Teachings of: Horde of Bats (53) Ancient Teachings of: Punish Corruption (53) Ancient Teachings of: Senses of the Bat (53) Ancient Teachings of: Glacialflame (53) Ancient Teachings of: Mana Cover (53)
I just don't get why these recipes have to be behind a faction-blocking wall AND be no trade. My sage did all the Tomb of Night questlines to get the books, but never worked on Maj'Dul factions as it's not my main character. This means I need to farm coins now? Can I say "urgh"? Sorry, this ain't fun in the least, not a very good idea imo.

There are also some Wayfarers (I think that's what they're called) standing around that offer nice little solo Instance quests that also reward coin and Insignia Tokens. It's probably best that you do these quests, because if you keep going around killing guards, then the "police" on their magic carpets get a bit miffed and will come and get ya!
THese are just my thoughts on BLC and shouldnt be considered any more worthy then the newspaper used to line bird cages. Two of my toons have done BLC, two have not. All benefit from the fact that the original spells are tradable to anyone, even those who haven't done the BLC series. I always thought this was a mistake. The spells shouldn't (hypothetically) be in Maj Dul, they should be in Nek Forest, at the camps and ONLY available to those who did the series of quest. Sorry, sages, alchys and Jewlers (of which I have all three). You wanna offer these spells to your clients, go do 'em. THere's more reason then ever now that Master Strike Vampire is there. They've revamped AA so it's more kind, fixed a few bugs...get 'errrr doooonnneeee. Oh, and can my 4th Provy toon get recipes for THexian wine and Vampire Pie (/ducks)
So let me get this straight.. in order for my 70 alchemist to get the alchy spell she needs to lvl up (as she is currently 24) in order to get her faction up?! This is absurd.. And again what do the spells have to do with Maj'Dul?
