secret knowledge is one of the professional skills you obtain when you submit pile of papers to the wisemen of faeo,
( flaviy for the mags and pandrik for the pinks.) (that is if it happens they able to read it.)
you can get these piles of papers in libraries, secret stashes, gnome runes, from the magic wand,

a particular amoungt of secret knowledge allows u to read and learn certain guidebooks which enables you
to collect resources/parts of superbeings (and also learn rare recipes for secondary profession)
and u can exchange these resources for quicksilvers at sorceres shop.

sacral knowldge on the other hand are special skills needed by the mages for them able to
[1] gain access to instances ( like the creature of filth lair)...
[2] learn book/thesaurus that will helkp them get quest shiass fragments which they need to
get particles., then use this particles to get substance (they can echange this subtances for stuffs in shop at altar of fighters of shiass)

sacral knowldge is given by the ancient races of the eldives or kroffdors (where the mage vowed to serve) after they hand in special manuscripts. this manuscripts can be obtained frm certain mobs when they are under influence of magical effect given by the female elfive/forffdor mage

secret knowledge gives player chance to buy guide books, then player can get Juggernaut rep and drop from hunting superbeings, the drop can be used to exchange quicksilver at NPC, quicksilver can then, be used for creating mirrors for summon (city rep amulet) or, opening runes.

sacral knowledge is associated with mage rep, eldives or kroffdors, do quests at lvl 11 and hunt under buff provided by either race, player can get pages, read them to increase your sacral knowledge up to level 5 or, hand in 12 of them to get +1 of sacral knowledge, benefits are to give player access to a wide range of opportunities. It is necessary for getting a number of tasks, accessing a certain instances and receiving a special rewards for the warriors of level 14 and above.

Secret Knowledge is a skill which gives you ability to buy Guidebooks.


After studying on guidebooks you can get certain rewards for killing monsters. Examples:

Actually i didn't know what is Sacral Knowledge so i studied a little bit


Sacral Knowledge is a skill for mages. After doing a series of quests for Eldives or Kroffdors you can start increasing this skill. But how ?


When fighting against Eldives or Kroffdors (opposite of which you choose) under the effect Ulleriuni or Irrigudo you can get pages of chronicle tomes I-V. Reading a new page gives you 1 Sacral Knowledge skill. There are five total chronicle tomes so they can increase your Sacral Knowledge skill to 5. After that you can give 12 pages of the same chronicle to mages of ancient races to get +1.


Sacral Knowledge gives you access for some tasks. And if you are level 14 or higher you can access an instance to. It's other earnings are a mystery to me. So i can't give you any further information about Sacral Knowledge.

There are some differences between the two knowledge skills,first of all is that Sacral Knowledge can be received after reaching level 11 while Secret Knowledge can be received in levels lower than 11.

Secret Knowledge requires searching while Sacral Knowledge requires killing monsters of the enemy faction we're working of (Eldives or Kroffdors) under the effect of Ullerioni or Irrigudo.

Secret Knowledge grants access to the various guidebooks of Superbeing resources,some special elixirs and amulets and mercury mirrors and Sacral Knowledge grants access to some tasks & instance(s).

1 Pile of Paper might increase our Secret Knowledge Skill up to 30 Secret Knowledge (or not) but we need 12 pages to increase our Sacral Knowledge (up to 5 Sacral Knowledge with pages).

These are some examples of the differences between the two skills.


Secret Knowledge is mostly about Juggernauts Reputation and quicksilvers.By having enough Secret Knowledge skill,a person can buy and study a guidebook of a Superbeing and thanks to that,he/she can get a certain resource from that Superbeing after killing it as well as juggernaut reputation up to some point. (for example: Harcide Stinger)

Of course,Wolfer Talon is an exception in this situation due to it being received from a quest. (It still gives Juggernaut Reputation up to some point and we can receive quicksilver by exchanging it at the corresponding character,though.)

Other than that,there are some other guidebooks such as; Chaos Elixirs & Amulets Guidebooks,Underground Elixirs Guidebook,Mercury Mirror Guidebook...

On the other hand,we need Sacral Knowledge to gain access to some instance(s) of level 14 (and above) as well as getting some tasks/quests.

First of we have secret knowledge:

You can obtain it by handing in Pile of Paper to the wise man Pandrikk or Flavviy. With some luck you will find some useful information in the papers and get +1 secret knowledge.

There are several useful things where a specific amount of secret knowledge is necessary.
1. You can buy books which allow you to get ressources from superbeings. Those ressources can be exchanged for quicksilver and some juggernaut reputation.

2. You can also buy several guidebooks if your secret knowledge is high enough which allow you to use the chaos- and undead elixirs.

3. Last but not least you can buy recipes for Collected Gambier Seeds, Pure Eldorill Dust or Magical Amber Ink depending on your profession.

On the other hand we have sacral knowledge which is only obtainable after finishing several quests at lv11.
By either reading a new page or collecting 12 pages of one of the manuscripts (which you can obtain by hunting monsters under the effect of Ulleriuni or Irrigudo)
If you increase it high enough your are granted access to some special quest at lv14+ .
In addition to that you are able to enter new instances and buy new things in the ancient repository.
