So, I just wanted to poll everyone and see how much exploring you've all been up to and make sure that it's not just me that can't find one of these buggers.

I've explored 20 pets fully for the last day (well, since I just woke up for ~10 hours of sleep I'm exploring them all again now also) and I still have no clue how/where to get these manuscript pieces!

Admittedly it seems that only 2 people have managed to get one, so it could just be that they are SUPER rare - but does anyone have any idea how they show up? Are they an item on the ground? Do you get them from a chest? From beating a boss temple?

Any information, maybe from someone that has gotten one, would be super helpful seeing as I'm exploring to my maximum ability and haven't found one yet.

Also, everyone else that is hunting for one, let us know how much exploring you're doing so I can get a general feel of the competition...

i have also been exploring like crazy to alas no luck lol

Shilar said she got hers from a chest. So, killing guardians and looting chest seems to be the way to go.

Awesome. Thanks for that info... in that case it seems a lot of my exploring has been next-to-useless since a large number of my pets aren't able to kill guardians reliably. D: I only have a couple that pretty much never lose.

I have 71 pets and explore with about 55 of them (some get tamed, some I don't have the time to get out for a walk) and I haven't seen one of the pieces. -.-

I'm not sure how others manage to get a piece.

I've been exploring on and off all day, till my best pets are out of energy. I've found several scriptoriums, defeated several guardians and plundered their treasure chests, but I haven't found a single manuscript piece. If you have to kill the temple bosses to get them I'll just resign myself to never finding any because I can never never kill those guys. They take me out in one or two turns, max.

I ve been exploring with all of my pets and even managed to beat beast temple a couple of times, opened some chests but havent seen the manuscript parts so far XD

^Same here. :[ They appear to be far too rare for my poor pets to comprehend.

explored all yesterday with 10 or so pets and nothing yet.

I've been exploring with all pets every time they gain enough energy to do so since yesterday morning XD Haven't found a thing... still... there's eight bits yet to go, so there's time yet XD

so it's a communal thing, cool. we're going to unlock the different golems one at a time? :)

35 pets fully explored TWICE aday sence release still nothing o.o.

I've been absolutely exhausting my pets out trying to find manuscript pieces so I can hopefully unlock a golem, but I've had no luck so far. Even with my pets beating the gaurdians as consistantly as they (usually) do, there's nothing!

Is it just me, or is this feeling ridiculously rare? It's like trying to find an energy drink at a magic shop! Only happened once, and I didn't have near enough silver.

So, I've still been exploring almost full time and I notice that no one else has found a manuscript piece in the last day... did it break? Or is a set number of possible findings a day capped maybe? It seems like it is broken since no one else has found any.

they... seem to have stopped. Maybe they've all been found by people who haven't noticed, or don't understand they should turn them in.
