Enchanting

Enchanting:
Enchanting improves weapons, armor, shields, and equipment by applying affixes which grant bonuses to the item. The affixes possible will always mirror that which can appear in loot, but the options in Enchanting will be limited to effects that are more magical and cannot be readily explained by fantastical materials alone. Most of the equipment affixes are purely enchantment.

Requirements:
Enchanting an item requires the following:

1) The player has to learn the Enchanting recipe from an Enchanting Trainer. Some trainers will be stationary, while others travel and appear in specific places temporarily.

2) The player’s Crafting Level (CL) is high enough to create the Enchanting product.

3) A Spellcraft score (including attribute and other modifiers) equal to the CL of the item being enchanted (to a maximum of 10).

4) The appropriate Ingredients and Gold required to Enchant the affix.

Ingredients:
First you'll choose the Weapons, Armor, Shields, or Equipment. This is the item to be enchanted, and will receive the affix. Most affixes are restricted to specific item categories.

Then you'll need to add the other ingredients, Enchanting Ingredients fall into 3 general categories:

1) Focal stones, which are derived from the disenchantment of magical items and loot. The more powerful the item disenchanted, the more Focal stones are given.

2) Gems, which are gained through Ore veins and loot drops.

3) Other components, which can range from herbs to miscellaneous loot items.

Process:
Weapons, Armor, Shields, or Equipment. This is the item to be enchanted, and will receive the affix. Most affixes are restricted to specific item categories.

The process flow for Enchanting is as follows:

1) Find an Enchanter Trainer that can teach the enchantment recipes you are looking for. No one enchanter will have all the recipes.

2) Approach the Enchanting Table, and navigate the menus to see what recipes are known. Choose one you have the required ingredients and Crafting Level for.

3) Place all the necessary ingredients listed in the Recipe into the Enchanting Table inventory. Return to the other prompt to continue the Formula.

4) If all the ingredients are in the table, and the crafting level is met, then creating the item should make the product appear in your inventory. The ingredients in the table will be consumed.

Progression:
There are three ways to gain experience in Enchanting. The first is to learn recipes from Enchanters. The second is disenchanting magical items to get at their Focal Stones. The last is Enchanting items themselves, which yields more experience the higher the CL of the item created.
