The Book of Taurs

What to prepare

Nothing to buy: mostly plan for the trips between six libraries, and for what you need to do the Lord Crow's Library dungeon.

The 10 quest steps

1. 1Talk to Meriana about the Crimson Dofus

   Dialogue[-6,-3] · Meriana

   The Crimson Dofus, one of the six primordial Dofus, is guarded by a powerful Taur warrior, the Minotoror. To seize it, you need the Book of Taurs: several copies exist, but Meriana doesn't know where to find them. Make the rounds of the libraries of the World of Twelve.

   

2. 2Question Becky Stein in Bonta

   Dialogue[-35,-57] · Becky Stein

   In the Bonta library, Becky Stein doesn't have the book and doesn't know where to find one.

   

3. 3Question Liam Nesswiltee in Brakmar

   Dialogue[-24,39] · Liam Nesswiltee

   Liam Nesswiltee does have the book in his library, but someone has borrowed it and the wait could be very long.

   

4. 4Question Doctor Hoo in Sufokia

   Dialogue[20,25] · Doctor Hoo

   He doesn't have the book and doesn't know where to find it, but he tells you that you are not the only one on its trail.

   

5. 5Question Harry Stottel in Amakna

   Dialogue[4,1] · Harry Stottel

   In the Amakna library, Harry Stottel asks you to whisper. His copy disappeared several years ago: he advises you to go and check in Astrub.

   

6. 6Question Dick Kerboo Brandtawa in Pandala

   Dialogue[21,-27] · Dick Kerboo Brandtawa

   Make a detour through Pandala before Astrub. Dick doesn't have the book and doesn't know where it might be.

   

7. 7Find the Astrub bookseller

   Movement[7,-19] · Oz Dralett

   Go up to the attic of the Astrub library and talk to Oz Dralett. He doesn't have the book, but it is in Lord Crow's Library. Rogues who were spying on you then attack: the fight is solo.

   Losing this fight has no consequences: the quest moves forward anyway.

   

8. 8Go back to see Meriana

   Dialogue[-6,-3] · Meriana

   Talk to Lord Crow's witch: she advises you to take down Lord Crow, and to bring her a Bone while you're at it.

   

9. 9Defeat Lord Crow

   Combat[-15,-62]

   Do the Lord Crow's Library dungeon at [-15,-62] and defeat Lord Crow to retrieve the Book of Taurs.
