<Penned by the skilled hand of Archmage Ansirem Runeweaver>
(page 2)
The ninth and final school of magic is transmutation. It is among the most popular and useful of all the schools, allowing a mage to manipulate time and space. Perhaps the Most iconic Transmutation spell is Polymorph, which allows a mage to turn something - or someone - into something else. Fortunately for many of my students, the effects are not permanent. I've seen more than one unwary apprentice turned into a sheep, pig, or worse - don't even ask what that means.
(page 3)
The second most famous use for transmutation magic is teleportation. The most basic teleportation spell is blink, and it remains among the most useful. Blink can be used to quickly escape a foe - or save a mage who has accidentally fallen off a cliff. Do not attempt to use blink to escape falling to your death unless absolutely necessary. This is the king of trick you can only fail once.
(page 4)
Make absolutely certain you know your destination before attempting to teleport. There's a reason we have very specific spells to teleport to certain locations - attempts to cast a teleportation on the fly often result in one very dead mage inside a wall, chair, or another mage, and I don't mean in a fun way.
(page 5)
Spells that manipulate time also fall into this category. The ever-popular slow fall spell is an excellent alternative to falling to your death (and much more reliable than blink at this function). More advanced practitioners of the arcane arts can also learn a spell that slows the movements of their enemies. I've heard rumors of a spell that increases movement speed as well, but I've never seen it in practice.
(page 6)
Lady Jaina Proudmoore is a skilled practitioner of transmutation magic. She has developed a powerful variation of the popular mass-teleport spell that is capable of moving a significant percentage of her army with minimal effort. This spell helps make her extremely unpredictable on the battlefield.

this book spawned at 1:19 pm for me, and again at 4:50pm, so the theroy of a random spawn time between 3 and 4 hours works. both times it was the "funny book" tho :S

Weathered Diary - Dates from the Third War can be found there instead.

Комментарий от Freakinghigh

Plymorphic Rules & Regulations spawns here too

Комментарий от meschen

Books spawn within a one hour window that begins 3 hours after the previous book is read. Can occasionally go a few minutes over the 4 hour mark.

Each book spawns in exactly the same place. The real book is blue.

Just to make it perfectly clear - the empty bookcase next to the stove.

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

I've been camping this, my last needed book for over 3 months now! I've probably seen 30 wrong books, but never this one. Is this book the hardest to get, or am I unlucky?

Комментарий от 265206

hehe i was standing at the wrong bookshelf for hours ... T . T

Комментарий от 399131

alot of people wate for this book at the wrong book shelf... it spawns on the empty shelf near the door on the side of the magus commerce exchange. NOT on the empty shelf next to the stairs and the door on the side on the horde stuff.

The book spawned for me at 3:45pm, and was gone in less than a minute.

I also posted pictures of a map of all the locations of the books as well as pictures of each specific location the books spawn so you know where to look. Good luck and happy hunting!

The Schools of Arcane Magic - Introduction
Violet Gate : Right side of Archmage Celindra on the floor next to the bookshelf
{Coords 56.7, 45.6}

The Schools of Arcane Magic – Abjuration
Dalaran Visitor Center : Right side of room, on the floor next to the table
{Coords 52.3, 54.8}

The Schools of Arcane Magic - Conjuration
Lower Violet Citadel : Right side of room (to the right of Archmage Aethas Sunreaver), Lower left bookshelf
{Coords 30.7, 46}

The Schools of Arcane Magic - Divination
Upper Violet Citadel : Upstairs on the floor between the book shelves that are to the left of Zidormi and the Caverns of Time portal.
{Coords 26.5, 52.3}

The Schools of Arcane Magic - Enchantment
Upper balcony of Threads of Fate : Go inside and up the stairs on the right side as you walk in, continue up until you are on the balcony. Face the door way and it will be on a crate on the left side.
{Coords 43.5, 46.7}

The Schools of Arcane Magic - Illusion
Violet Hold : Go in and then left. It’s on a crate to the right of Archmage Timear *Regular dungeon daily quest giver* (to the right as you are looking at him)
{Coords 64.4, 52.4}

The Schools of Arcane Magic - Necromancy
Upper Legerdemain Lounge: Go upstairs and to the right in the bedroom with four beds. It will be on the bookshelf against the wall on the second shelf from the top.
{Coords 46.8, 39.1}

The Schools of Arcane Magic - Transmutation
Lower Legerdemain Lounge : Bottom floor on the right bookshelf across from the bar (next to the stove) it will be on the second shelf from the top
{Coords 46.8, 40}

I suggest you get an addon from Curse.com called Dalaran University. It’s simple to use and will help you keep track of when each book may spawn. Just keep in mind, books can spawn as a “real” or “fake” book in each specific location. A fake book that spawns counts (on timers) as a real book, so you will have to wait another 3-4 hours for a chance a real book will spawn.

I hope this helps! Good luck getting your Loremaster title and your Kirin Tor Familiar non-combat pet!

I've been checking for this book now for over two months. It doesn't spawn for me. The only books that have spawned on rare occasions were fakes. I got all the other books easily, why not this one?

Комментарий от 202575

This was the last book I needed, and after an exhaustive wait here are the book spawn times I and my brother who helped me saw, with all being random books aside from the one I needed.

Here's a quick video I put together showing how the rewards for the Higher Learning achievement plays out!

Good thing there's a Barmaid within right click range of this...I'm going to need a lot of beer.

I have confirmed that all books respawn after a restart. We had rolling restarts just now, after 5 restarts on 2 hours, I got the last 3 books I needed. Kinda lucky, considering the chances of duds. :>

Комментарий от 606253

It's interesting to note that while the schools are clearly from D&D, teleportation spells are Transmutation and not Conjuration.

Комментарий от 297041

Has anyone else noticed that this says it is the "Ninth and final school"? From the achievement we can see that they list seven. I'm guessing from the book about Abjuration that Evocation is another school, I'm curious what the unlisted one is.

Комментарий от Eveliniz

This is the last book I have left to get my Achievement for Higher Learning, but it never seems to be there, so I decided I wanted to camp the place.

I read a fake book at 13:30 and waited... And waited... And waited.. Until 16:40, when there suddenly was a book there.
Sure, it was another fake book, but now I know that it took 3 hours and 5-10 minutes until next spawn.

So when you find a fake book, come back 3 hours later and start camping then, instead of camping the whole time.

I've heard rumors of a spell that increases movement speed as well, but I've never seen it in practice.

Odd, but this seems to be a hint at the future spell Time Warp, which wasn't put into the game until Cataclysm. Looks like Blizz might have been planning it since the very beginning of Wrath.

Комментарий от Purrrple

Started finally going for this achievement to get the pet.

Day 1: I was lucky to have this book appear at 9.05am. A fake book didn't spawn until 3.48pm, and then another at 7.08pm. I was constantly doing laps of Dalaran to get the other books, and noticed a 7hr wait at another spawn spot too.

Day 2: Fake books all spawned at 7.06am, 10.41am, 2.13pm, 6.15pm, then the real book at 10.07pm.

Day 3: The real book appeared again at 10.46am, then a fake one at 2.23pm.

do books disappear when they are read, or do they exist for a certain time?

Комментарий от 98133

After a week or so with no luck, read about restart/shutdown spawn. With this info I found the book after last nights shutdown

Комментарий от domacleod

Introduction says there are 8 schools of magic. This one implies there are nine. Well, apparently the 8th is Universal magic, but is "ninth" really a typo, or do we actually have another school of magic that Ansirem refers to by mistake?

Abjuration: Spells that protect, block, or banish. An abjuration specialist is called an abjurer.
Conjuration: Spells that bring creatures or materials to the caster. A conjuration specialist is called a conjurer.
Divination: Spells that reveal information. A divination specialist is called a diviner. Unlike the other specialists, a diviner must give up only one other school.
Enchantment: Spells that imbue the recipient with some property or grant the caster power over another being. An enchantment specialist is called an enchanter.
Evocation: Spells that manipulate energy or create something from nothing. An evocation specialist is called an evoker.
Illusion: Spells that alter perception or create false images. An illusion specialist is called an illusionist.
Necromancy: Spells that manipulate, create, or destroy life or life force. A necromancy specialist is called a necromancer.
Transmutation: Spells that transform the recipient physically or change its properties in a more subtle way. A transmutation specialist is called a transmuter.
Universal: Not a school, but a category for spells that all wizards can learn. A wizard cannot select universal as a specialty school or as a prohibited school. Only a limited number of spells fall into this category.

From D&D Wiki (as the WoW schools of magic are inspired from D&D)
