23.5.2 Compendiums

The Compendium is an encyclopedia of knowledge being compiled by the Fellowship of Explorers. Detailed pages of information about areas have been written by numerous past explorers, and the Fellowship is trying to combine them all into one place. To obtain your Compendium, you must bring your first page to Windchaser, the head of the Fellowship. He can be found at v16428.

Pages for the Compendium are rare, but can be obtained through opening cryptic chests or giftbags and are sometimes made available through auctions. Each page will pertain to a specific area, and inserting that page into your Compendium will increase the page count for that area.

The pages inserted into the Compendium can be used to activate bonuses for the area in question though unlocking them. Some bonuses require more pages dedicated to them than others. The action of using a page to activate a certain area bonus cannot be undone. The amount of area pages used to activate a bonus detracts from the total number of pages you have available for the area in question. 

The Compendium bonuses do not apply when one is engaged in active PvP combat.
