I'm going to let this run until Monday night.

This post tells you what ensorcellment gives you:

This post tells you what I'm able to handle, for the t1 ensorcell anyway:
http://forum.gsplayers.com/showthread.php?80647-I-checked-t1-ensorcell-difficulty-on-a-few-items

What I'll work on this time
7x vanilla
6x flaring or somewhat weighted/padded
5x heavily weighted/padded
Perfect forging is fine at any level, as far as I can tell. Same for max light.
If in doubt, ask

No enhancives or holy items - the potion to temper doesn't exist yet. Other stuff should work fine (there are reports that these flares even get along with other flares, on temporary ensorcells), but if it doesn't we call off the sale.

I will pick up from you anywhere in game and return anywhere in game.

According to the officials, there is no chance of damaging/destroying the item. Still, any damage/item loss is at your own risk.

I have a 1x charge ready to go, and should be able to do 2x right around the middle of April. I can do the 1x immediately if you want, but I'm only travelling to you once.
If I can only go to 1x on your item, you'll pay 1/3 of your bid. If i can't manage permanent ensorcell at all, you won't pay anything.

No one has done a 2x ensorcell yet, so we're not sure what we'll run into. Please be understanding, and also be prepared to be the envy of all the other kids. I figure most sorcerers will take their own runestaff as far as they can before setting up shop, so it may be a couple of months before this service is in a reasonable amount of supply.

I will try to figure out a way to give the winner dibs on my first attempt at 3x, but no promises there.

Character name is Dergoatean.

Footnote - This thread is becoming where people say what they've been able to perm ensorcell - http://forum.gsplayers.com/showthread.php?80531-Ensorcell-released/page10&highlight=ensorcell

Footnote 2 - For anyone wondering about flare frequency
[count735: successful CS casts since reset: 1000]
[count735: flares since reset: 143]

Footnote 3 - If you win, and want two 1x ensorcells instead, we can probably work something out.

Sounds like a tricky contract. I'll send my attorney to look this over.

I'll keep an eye on the officials for more info from the devs. Right now I don't know what restrictions are placed on ensorcelled items in terms of further enhancements.

chalk prices are around 30k per, not 50k

Assuming 4 chalks max at 27k - 2 for pickup round trip, 2 for dropoff round trip. That's how I got to 108k.

From Coase:
"Ensorcellment does not affect padding in any way."
"Ensorcelling an item makes enchanting it harder to succeed on, but does not block it."

lol at selling a service you're not even sure you can do. Or when you can do.

Goat

If you want to be the first, you have to work through some kinks. I won't collect in advance.

Your lols are welcome, regardless.

You gesture at a dhu goleras.
CS: +436 - TD: +326 + CvA: +25 + d100: +12 == +147
Warding failed!
... and hits for 21 points of damage!
A dhu goleras is suddenly engulfed in flames of pure essence!
... 70 points of damage!
Fire completely surrounds a dhu goleras. Blood boils and heart stops.
The dhu goleras opens her mouth wide and lets out a choked, shrill scream and her eyes cloud over to a solid milky white as she collapses and dies.
You feel 9 mana surge into you!

** Necrotic energy from your glowbark runestaff overflows into you! **

You feel energized!
Your glowbark runestaff pulses with a white-blue light!
You feel 2 mana surge into you!
Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.
(Forcing stance down to guarded)

Way too cheap on offering this service . . . should have not put it out thar yet-- but with that being said--above is a flare from my permanently ensorcelled 2x mana flaring runestaff-- yes folks flares stack (+9 mana surge was from 719, +2 mana surge was from the mana flaring runestaff, and the necrotic energy was from the ensorcell-- which added +6 CS to my next cast btw)

Hope this info helps your auction by Monday, and may you cast successfully . . . chuckle

The restrictions placed on the service is why it's not going to too high. Nothing over 6x vanilla is kind of a downer.

Am I correct to assume that veil iron/krodera/kroderine cannot be ensorcelled?

Goat

Yeah after seeing that some stuff I coming up easy I'm tempted to lift some of the restrictions, but I also don't want to overpromise. Tough being the first.

Edit: decided to open up some. Posted this at the top of OP: A couple of sorcs have posted having a very easy time of permanently ensorcelling some pretty nice stuff (for the first tier), so I'm going to lift some of the original restrictions in hopes that I can provide more value. I'm going to say up to 7x vanilla, or up to 5x with one nice-but-not-absurd feature - up to heavy padding or weighting, or simple elemental flares, or if you have something else in that vein, talk to me. I'll also try a plain new-style claid if you want. Again, if I only get to 1x with it, you pay 1/3 of your bid.

I have no idea about anti-magic but it doesn't seem like a great idea for a first attempt.
