Can't Complete Quest: Way of the Rift Mage

I have the same issue as well. But I found the one in the Desolate Beach and Ghilan'nain's Grove. I did find the camp in Halin'shulan, but there was no Venatori Mage. And I've been searching for days now. I'm probably just gonna start a new one if they don't respond. This is getting very old. I have tweeted them numerous times with no response haha

I have the same problem but mine is the desolate banks.

Supposedly from what I understand that if you clear out the nearby fort which you may have done hours and hours before then the venatori will not appear at all

I have contacted dragon age about the issue and I am waiting to hear back but I doubt it will do any good.

This would be an easy fix for the devs in a patch but I doubt they will get to it anytime soon if ever.

Kind of a game breaker if you wanted a Rift mage

Just a thought, but have you done Dorian's quest to kill rogue Venatori? Perhaps they will drop one for you?? Can't say for sure seeing as I got all three of mine while in the Plains zone ...wish I could give you one of them seeing as I did all three mage prereq quests for the specializations but I ended up going Knight Enchanter.

Ive had the same problem with no drop in Ghilan'nain's grove but I managed to get the last tome from a spellbinder in the hissing wastes

Had the same issue.

Some people seemed to have been able to purchase it, others got the third tome as a random drop in the Hissing Wastes.

Neither worked for me. I stopped by every merchant and killed a lot of Venatori in the Hissing Wastes after rechecking the original three locations several times.

In the end, I gave up. Became a Knight-Enchanter instead and it's quite ok. Though I really hope this issue will be addressed for my future playthroughs.

Hi,

I wanted to add that I've checked all the correct places and I'm pretty sure that I fought all the Venatori there, but I'm still missing a tome. Going back and searching yields no results (don't know if loot is persistent- I don't think so). I know that some people are indicating that you need to clear the forts first and I can't remember if I did that first or not. Also, there aren't even any campsites in the spot anymore.

So, from my perspective, the game is acting like I've gathered the necessary tomes, but I only have 2/3 tomes in my inventory.

Thanks. The game is otherwise spectacularly lovely.

this sh*t gets really annoying.. I am at levet 16, SIXTEEN with TWO mage-characters and which items do I lack? the goddamn tomes. I could build a thron for khorne with the necro-skulls i could ammass or build a iron-throne out of spirit blades, but i cant find this third damn tome. And i search for 6 level or so

really annoing. I had crashes and my companions cant speak but this stuff is gamebreaking..

Went this stuff without Q.A or what?
