A friend gave me a small assortment of ...... Essence of Life, including Median Essence of Life. The giver indicated they exchange for TBM spells. I was still very confused and had not tried to use any. Finally, on my 103 enchanter, I clicked one. Following is what I was offered:
Median Essence of Life
Minor Essence of Life (Trade Down)
Lesser Essence of Life (Trade Down)
Scroll: Bafflement Rk. II; Scroll: Polyrefractive Assault Rk. II
Scroll: Undermining Helix Rk. II; Scroll: Precognition Rk. II
Scroll: Pacifying Issuance Rk. II; Scroll: Augmenting Aura Rk. II; Scroll: Frightening Rune Rk. II
Scroll: Aegis of Gordianus Rk. II; Scroll: Drown Rk. II
Scroll: Chaotic Bewildering Rk. II; Scroll: Mana Reciprocation Rk. II
Scroll: Night's Endless Terror
Note that all of the spells for which Briny Essences may be exchanged may be obtained with Essences of Life also. In addition, there may be something from The Broken Mirror expansion.
I am thinking that these Essence of Life are unknown to the majority of the population. As evidence: I was bold enough to search for some in the Bazaar. I found all levels selling for prices below five thousand plat. In contrast, the Briny Essences were on sale for nothing less than 20 thousand plat with some as high as 150000 plat.
To the Forum volunteer: May I suggest that the ...... Essence of Life entries be updated in parallel with the ...... Briny Essence entries. even if the spell(s) from TBM may not be able to be added simultaneously.
By the way, I was able to scribe the Scroll: Night's Endless Terror Rk II even though neither I nor any of my alts has entered any of the zones although we do own the expansion TBM. But my necromancer alt purchased Rk I of Dichotomic Paroxysm and has been unable to scribe it. Another thing, as the spell was clunking into my inventory, I received the following message in RED, "The system is currently unable to grant your reward for Unknown. Please try again later."
