Scribe table needs a quest

I can’t believe I went all the way through killing the Riven Twins without finding out where the hell this is and what it does. I just randomly walked by it and a help feature popped up. Why is there no quest introducing the table to us? Why is it not marked on the map? Are people expected to just randomly walk up to it in the middle of this huge city to discover it? Cmon guys, that’s extremely poor implementation of a game system.

This is a great point

Oof, that sucks. So you’re essentially saying that, food-wise, you could only craft Mushroom Soups up till that point?

My gripe is the fact that food recipes have been incorporated into the scribe table. Now, for any new realm, you can’t get the Crab Chowder or Mushroom & Meat Curry recipes from Fillmore in Mariner’s Keep anymore.

But on the opposite end, when the scribe table becomes available you can research all food recipes at once (and the harvesting tools for that matter) - if you have enough research papers.
