    Hi I've been playing with my spellcaster and he has this perk. But I don't know how the motes can help him. I googled everywhere but I saw only motes when becoming spellcasters only. Anyone knows about motes in detail? A bunch of Thanks.

      They give you spellcaster XP when you absorb them. You can only carry 7 at a time, and you can't see them outside of the initial fetch quest without the perk.

      Source - my spellcaster has the perk too.

      Do you mean XP is talent points or magical power?

      The bar that shows you what your spellcaster rank is. Absorbing motes will increase the bar slightly.

      Each mote is a tiny gain. It helps, but not like super helpful.

      Also, they raise a random need by a little bit each time you eat one.

      I still think it's funny that they absorb the mote by eating it lol

      What do these motes look like? Are they only found in the magical realm? (Is it the black spot in the left-center of the screenshot? I have a lot of floaters in my eyes, and my computer screen tends to collect dust and cat hair, so I might very well be missing them because I assume it's a floater or a dirty spot on my screen.)
      I just want things to match. :'(

      @invisiblgirl Motes are the little blue-purple balls you collect for the sages after you ask them to turn you into a spellcaster. You can find them hovering above the ground in the magic realm, like little ghost lights, but to see them permanently, you have to get the corresponding perk.

      Something wicked this way comes!
      I don't use MCCC.

      Thanks - I'll have to look for them. I probably ignored them as random sparkliness in the background, not anything useful.

      They are not that useful but you need to get this perk anyway to get the higher and better other perks.
