Enchanting Guide for New Players

Enchanting

Enchanting comes with three different uses; Scroll Crafting, Augmenting, and Enchanting, which can be switched between at any time using the tabs. Scroll Crafting and Enchanting go hand in hand together while Augmenting is how you increase the power of items, at a risk.

Scroll Crafting

This is the main skill when it comes to creating useful Enchants to put on your gear. Each Enchant requires one Scroll, a handful of Silver from Mining, and a variety of Runes from Runecrafting. Each scroll has a success chance, which can be increased by increasing your effective Enchanting level. Upon failure to make a scroll, you will lose any resources used in the attempt. You can filter what type of enchants you want by clicking on the gear filters at the top.

Enchanting

After you’ve made some scrolls, this is where you’d go to apply them on your applicable gear. Gear can only hold so many enchants, as denoted by the circle enchant slots on any given item (if it has any). Starting gear can usually only hold one enchant while late game gear can have anywhere from six to eight. You can overwrite enchants in items with a different one, but it would be better to Disenchant the item first to get some of the resources back. You can disenchant an enchanted item by clicking on it and clicking “Disenchant”

Augmenting

You can further enhance any gear you obtain here, by adding levels to it at a cost of some resources and risk, the risk being the destruction of the item, so make sure you are okay with the possibility of that happening. The cost for augmenting an item will be displayed in the UI as well as a success chance, which will increase with your Effective Enchanting level.

Soulbinding

Soulbinding is a safe alternative to Augmenting that will also increase the level of an item at an 100% rate, but will have some conditionals. The first being that you need to get experience on the item to increase its Soul Bind level. There is no cap on the Soulbinding level, but it takes progressively longer to level it up the higher the level becomes. Every three levels you Augment an item, you’ll need a base copy of said item, which also increases by one every three levels after (For example, one base item at level 3, two base items at level 6, three at level 9, and so forth.) However there is a cap on how high you can augment a soulbound item, which is 3 + 1 for every 10 levels of your Effective Enchanting Level. (So at Effective level 170, you can enchant an item up to level 20, even if your soul bind level is level 23).
