What Are Grimoires & Scriptures In Darktide

Grimoires

Grimoires are cursed books that introduce corruption into your team. They deal damage when picked up and also further inflicts corruption over time. It does have a limit though. A team can pick up two during missions and the effects stack with each other. It may be wise to talk with your team about bringing in an additional Grimoire especially during missions on higher difficulty as it can easily bring down health and end your sortie. Carrying Grimoires up until the end of the mission rewards you and your team additional XP and money.

Know more about Grimoires using the Grimoire Guide.

Scriptures

Scriptures, unlike Grimoires, do not inflict any negative effects to your team. However, they do occupy an item slot meaning that you won’t be able to carry any Medical Crate or Ammo Crate while carrying one. Teams can get a maximum of three Scriptures and getting them out of a mission rewards you with more XP and money.

Know more about Scriptures using the Scripture Guide.
