In line with something I was saying in another thread about actions/scripts. It almost seems to me that if you don't have a peice of equipment fully enchanted, getting it scripted is probably a bad thing... in that it makes wizards unable to further enchant and costs more for Prem Point enchants.

Does anyone else agree that it seems stupid that there is a difference between enchanting to 7x and then padding vs padding and then enchanting to 7x, or enchanting to 7x then actioning vs actioning then enchanting. I do understand why this is (off the shelf 0x weighted/padded stuff would be way more valuable), but maybe if they did it from a "at gen" standpoint.

Reason I mention this is that at a festival a while ago, (didn't actually get the service) I had planned on not lightening my armor because I had plans to further enchant it, and instead planned on lightening something else, but if I had finished enchanting it first I would have much rather gotten the lightening service, and it's not like the actual "cost" of the lightening would increase as exponentially as the cost of enchanting would have.

Depending on the scripts, alot of things remain further enchantable after they're added. For example, I got a breastplate scripted at the anfelt, then lightened twice BEFORE I enchanted it.

Some things like Bane weapons (further enchantable BEFORE Gs4 mind you) are no longer enchantable due to the scripts.
