Enchanting

Enchanting

Overview

Enchanting is a primary profession. It lets you improve equipment with enchantments, and recover materials by disenchanting items.

It does not need a gathering profession: its materials come from disenchanted items.

What this profession is for

  • Enchant equipment to strengthen it.
  • Disenchant items to obtain materials.
  • Craft wands and other magical items.
  • Place an Enchanted Lute at the camp, which increases stats and resistances.

Learning the profession

Enchanting is learned from an enchanting trainer. Each rank raises the profession's maximum skill and requires a character level and a minimum skill:

  • Apprentice: up to 75 skill.
  • Journeyman: up to 150, from 50 skill and level 10.
  • Expert: up to 225, from 125 skill and level 20.
  • Artisan: up to 300, from 200 skill and level 35.

Remember to visit your trainer as you approach your rank's limit: beyond it, your skill no longer increases.

In brackets, what each trainer teaches: 75 (Apprentice rank, from 0 to 75), 75 + (Journeyman rank, from 75 to 150), 150 + (Expert rank, from 150 to 225), 225 + (Artisan rank, from 225 to 300).

Dusts, essences and shards are obtained by disenchanting items, or bought at the auction house. The copper rod, the mote of magic and the simple wood are sold by vendors. Silver, golden, truesilver and arcanite rods are made by blacksmiths. Gems and pearls are bought at the auction house. Purple Lotus is gathered with Herbalism, and Crystal Vials are sold by alchemy suppliers.

Each enchant requires a runed rod in your bags: copper up to 130, then silver, golden and truesilver. An enchant is applied to an item: you can enchant the same item several times.
