if you read the books, the 1st one will give you 2 attribute points along with merril approval +5 (If in the party). however the other evil tomes grant nothing. Also if you take or read any evil tome the quest will remain in your journal and you will be unable to complete the quest. If you read The Fell Grimoire only, you can do battle with Xebenkeck, are able to complete the quest and gain 2 attribute points. - Dragon Age Wiki -
Super helpful!! And if anyone wanted to know when I replayed this it was so much easier to just run away and fight them from a distance than staying in the same room. Good luck!!
Thank you for putting this video up because I could not find Dank Cave even after I looked at the maps to find what position it was in the guidebook. Thanks again, really appreciate it.
Lol don't feel bad I had to turn my difficulty down too. On my next playthrough I'll lvl up more first. Also note if you read the book and accept it's deal, you still get the fight plus a bonus. Thanks for this helpful guide:)
@JV2017gameplay what the difference if you read or destroy the last book (the fell gilmore)? cuz I read the book and got 2 attribute points, and almost the same loot as when you destroy the book.
totally! i happen to use 2 mythal's favor potions to revive my companions in the last batlle. Well, thank you so much for the video! it was really helpful :)
hey, the quests in this game looks a lot more interesting than i had expected! i'm starting to have a different opinion on the dragon age games. by the way, what happens if you read the evil tomes?
Just an observation ... i noticed that i looted alot more potions if i am carrying less than 5 potions at the point of looting than when i was carrying more ... maybe the game has a cap on the number of potions a player can loot while already carrying a certain number of potions ...
@JV2017gameplay I'm gonna do my theoretical exam around easter and can do my practical in about a year (when I'm 18) it sucks, but that's how things work over here in Europe. But hey, take care, keep doing what you're doing (as long as you enjoy it, because I do) and take care. I'll be talking to you some other time.
I found that if every level you put 1 point on constitution or willpower(your choice) then the 2 remainder that you may not hit as much but you will have more stamina and more health. Ovbiously if your a warrior more constitution as it is one of your man attributes.
Dude you are a god. Thank you for this video, never woulda found the Tome in the 'unmarked cave' cause I thought all the tomes were in the city. The level between Normal and Casual is just... wtf. I died three times on Normal on the second wave of monsters in the room, but on Casual I beat it in one go. -_- Anyway thanks for the help. :D
@JV2017gameplay Well, I just became 17 about a month ago. I'm older then you but the funny part is, I'm not alowed to drive yet because I'm from Belgium. But there's a bright side, the age requirement for alcohol is only 16 years (and they never even check your ID when you buy alcohol. So you can actually buy beer and stuff when you're 14, but you have to be big for your age though)
Your cousin sounds hot dude! lol. Jk. Seriously your video definitely helped me with this quest. Wasn't so much completing it that was a bitch for me but rather finding all the tomes.
I don't understand why people keep saying the battle is hard. It was all easy for me. Didn't even use one health potion and played it on normal. I'm a warrior, btw.
No, you don't understand. That battle in the recently opnened cave is BULLSHIT. I made the ungodly mistake of bringing Sebastian, who is the most useless companion that a DLC has ever had the disgrace of bringing us. Regardless, this battle is near impossible. I breezed through the game and then come to this unfair slaughter.
damn look out we got a bad ass over here people dont fuck with this guy not even going in the army can compare to what this guy did damn we got nothing on him.... LMFAO I lied
...the review was decent you only wasted a little bit of time on stuff in the battles, but how do you not understand that the desire demon is scantily clad for a reason.. its in the name.
I CANNOT COMPLETE THIS QUEST BECAUSE I READ 1 OR 2 BOOKS!!! AND I FOLLOWED ALL YOUR STEPS AND I HAVE ALL THE BOOKS *SO LESSON HERE: DON'T READ A BOOK, ONLY DESTROY* WASTED 1 HOUR OF MY TIME 😢😤😒
Thanks for the upload.
I've been looking for the 5th tone for hours!

I never would have found that corner in the bone pit without you. Thanks!
Thank you for putting this video up because I could not find Dank Cave even after I looked at the maps to find what position it was in the guidebook. Thanks again, really appreciate it.
Thanks for the video even though it has been years since I did this quest you helped remind me about the last part. Thanks and keep up the good work.
Still helpful so many years later! The unmarked cave was the one I couldn’t find
Thanks for the video, that was one of the few achievements I still needed to get.
Wow Thank you so much. I had no idea where that area on Sundermount was and was walking around on the peak for a good half hour. Very helpful thanks.
My character read one of the books. Does that make it impossible to enter the forgotten lair in Darktown?
....what if u took the books...
I got all the books and it didnt show up was it because I read the very first one I got
Lol don't feel bad I had to turn my difficulty down too. On my next playthrough I'll lvl up more first. Also note if you read the book and accept it's deal, you still get the fight plus a bonus. Thanks for this helpful guide:)
@JV2017gameplay what the difference if you read or destroy the last book (the fell gilmore)? cuz I read the book and got 2 attribute points, and almost the same loot as when you destroy the book.
What happens if you read or take all of them? Will the final boss of this quest still be available?
i were at all those locations but there is no secret tunnel to the tome in darktown?
So in the bone pit area, a cart is blocking off the cave. Can you tell me how to continue?
i have destroid all the tumbs but the quest doesnt show up on the map. what do to?
what if you read the books and accept the deamonds' offer?
Thanks mate! This really helped! : )
i did not destroy it does it affect the quest in anyway?
Thanks alot this was super helpful
the evil pit doesnt show for me after destroying the tomes, and ive destroyed ALL the tomes.
@JV2017gameplay whats the disadvantage of taking them then?
so you have to destroy them you cant read the first one and destroy the others to get to the boss ?
totally! i happen to use 2 mythal's favor potions to revive my companions in the last batlle. Well, thank you so much for the video! it was really helpful :)
damn i read the first one and cant to the quest :(
Thanks for the help!
what armor are you using
actually what happens if i read or take all of them?
@Fionafy There are puzzles in the fade when your are saving fenriel (act 2) just mostly about fighting though yeah.
It won't let me enter the cave for the 3rd book.
my bro told me that u can read the last one and ull still get the achievment is this true? ( the game is unpatched )
can you read and then destroy ?
I think I found all 5 books, but I still can't get to fell grimoir. Help plz.
I had found all books ,But the quest did not update,anyone know what happen?
Great video, very clear
Ugh thank you. I just couldn't find the one in the bone pit! Kept going to the wrong place...
hey, the quests in this game looks a lot more interesting than i had expected! i'm starting to have a different opinion on the dragon age games. by the way, what happens if you read the evil tomes?
Did you find out what happens?
What if you take them then destroy them
Bro i red one of the books and can't go to the Fell Grimoire (I think this quest has bug) :(
very helpful guide, Thanx :D
I never beat this quest. I beat everything else except this. Now I can.
Just an observation ... i noticed that i looted alot more potions if i am carrying less than 5 potions at the point of looting than when i was carrying more ... maybe the game has a cap on the number of potions a player can loot while already carrying a certain number of potions ...

DA2 wiki acctually says that you can read the fell grimoire and get 2 attribute pont and not blow the quest
haaa i like how its like a tv show XD oh and thanks man twas a great help, hi cuz
i like the desire demons.
thanks dude!!!
@earthfrenzy cant do it know, next playthrough, its a chapter 2 quest, and cannot do it in chapter 3
This game is so frustrating sometimes, I can't end the quest just because I read one book, don't make sense for me
I found that if every level you put 1 point on constitution or willpower(your choice) then the 2 remainder that you may not hit as much but you will have more stamina and more health. Ovbiously if your a warrior more constitution as it is one of your man attributes.

Anyway thanks for the help. :D
Skill issues
nice armor :3
well for me everytime i go to that book the dragon always attacked me so im not sure either lol
I just want to note that if Merrile is your friend completely then it wont matter if you bring her.
@JV2017gameplay How old are YOU actually? I'm 17
I just killed this boss on my OP dps team, with all of them alive. That was fun.
Fun fact it u had read the book u would of gotten 2 at points and still able to fight the boss.
Its not "night terrors" its "forbidden knowledge"
why do you think desire demons look like that? they are desire demons! what does your desire demon look like.
@JV2017gameplay Well, I just became 17 about a month ago. I'm older then you but the funny part is, I'm not alowed to drive yet because I'm from Belgium. But there's a bright side, the age requirement for alcohol is only 16 years (and they never even check your ID when you buy alcohol. So you can actually buy beer and stuff when you're 14, but you have to be big for your age though)
the final fight in darktown was soooo difficult, I tried maybe ten times to acomplish that fight...
I glitched it out and had infinite health
@JV2017gameplay oh no i read the first one ...anyway thanks for the info =)
Your cousin sounds hot dude! lol. Jk. Seriously your video definitely helped me with this quest. Wasn't so much completing it that was a bitch for me but rather finding all the tomes.
Thanks.

No, you don't understand. That battle in the recently opnened cave is BULLSHIT. I made the ungodly mistake of bringing Sebastian, who is the most useless companion that a DLC has ever had the disgrace of bringing us. Regardless, this battle is near impossible.
