Tome of Want

The Tome of Want is an inventory accessory from Episode: Heresy that lets Guardians target-farm rewards by socketing Scriptures and powering rituals.

Unlocking

It unlocks at Rank 3 with the Shaping Slab vendor and is opened from the inventory tab where tonics are consumed.

How it works

• Socket Scriptures into its slots: category Scriptures set the reward type (episodic weapons or armor, reprised weapons, world drops, resources) and modifier (Crumbling) Scriptures refine it, such as to a weapon type. Amorphous Scriptures, which are Exotic-focused, are also available.
• Infuse rituals with Essence of Desire. Progress builds from activities such as The Nether, Vanguard Ops and the Crucible, most from Heresy content. Full rituals grant rewards and consume the Scriptures.
• Tome Engravings unlock over time and add effects to Artifact perks while a ritual is active.
• Weapons can also be focused with Scriptures; e.g. Adamantite.

Reported names for scripture types and details of the third slot differ between sources.
