Books Contain No Information

I saw this after returning to New Tristam late in the beta, starting with 2 quests prior to killing the Skeleton King. If you return to New Tristam and enter either Decard Cain's or Leah's house, you'll see books on their stands. However, if you attempt to pick up the books, nothing happens. Almost as if the books were respawned with no information in them.

usafcaptg,

Do you have lore in your Journal already?

Hi Merlin,

Yes I already had parts 1,2 and 3.... but the book(s) still appeared during the Leoric quest, and thus became the "disappearing book" issue, where it would allow you to pick up the book, but the book contained no information.


Sorry for the confusion. If you already have a lore book, you will not be able to pick up the same lore book.

It looks weird, but the alternative would be spamming your Journal with lore you already had.
