Enchanting data points

[Sighisoara]

Not sure if it's even desirable information for anyone, but I thought I would toss this up here in case anyone is wanting to keep up with these things. Looks like I got pretty close to the 3% fumble.

Final cast on an empty 7x fusion item.

Your spell is ready.
>cast at my spear
You gesture at an elven infantry spear.
You sense that the spear is one of your own projects, and it is ready to be enchanted. Unless you are horribly unlucky, you should have no trouble enchanting an elven infantry spear.
Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.
>
Gesturing with subtle yet precise hand movements, you are surrounded by an air of charged energy as you call upon the elements in preparing Enchant Item.
Your spell is ready.
>chan at my spear
You channel at an elven infantry spear.
You make a horribly poor attempt! Success!

Visible wisps of essence dance across the surface of the elven infantry spear as you chant quietly, your sure gestures guiding them to slowly coalesce into a pair of small softly glowing runic symbols. The two lone runes flicker momentarily, the intensity of their glow increasing as their form sharpens into crisp, clean edges. Suddenly, the symbols erupt in a cascade of tiny prismatic motes of light, encompassing the spear to form a shimmering layer over its surface. Slowly, the radiant shell sinks into the spear, leaving behind a faint, fading aura.
Roundtime: 20 sec.
Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.

Also for extrapolating difficulty.

You remove an ayveneh potion from in your wizard's bag.
>pour pot on my warb
You pour your potion on the warblade.

You're a man after Whirlin's own heart.

[Sighisoara]

I do what I can

[Whirlin]

So... This is interesting. I'm working on a low enchant of a super difficult item:
OUT OF WORKSHOP, 65% encumbrance, w/ Familiar:
You will likely need a miracle to complete this enchantment.

IN WORKSHOP, 65% encumbrance, w/ Familiar:
You are more likely than not to succeed on your cast, but you will need some luck.


OUT OF WORKSHOP, 30% encumbrance, w/ Familiar:
This enchantment will be very difficult for you under these conditions.


IN WORKSHOP, 30% encumbrance, w/ Familiar:
Unless you are horribly unlucky, you should have no trouble enchanting a pair of elegant black leather gloves stitched with black silk thread.

You make a passable attempt. Success!


I will likely burn my annual fixskills to do some testing on enchanting... I recommend others to do the same! Get a variety of items!

First pour on an empty fusion runestaff, 6x-7x.

You pour your potion on the runestaff.
1d100: 41 + Modifiers: 149 == 190

I take this to mean that a 7x cast on an empty fusion item is about as difficult to enchant as the 5x cast on the +7 edged enhancive referenced above.

[Viekn]

Has anyone done any testing yet to see what the new enchant time is vs. the old for 6x and 7x projects using max water lore? Or is this already more or less known? I haven't seen many posts about it yet and would like to get an idea of how big of difference it's going to make.

[chalion]

The water lore doesn't directly help pour times. It lets you gather mana points to infuse pots to reduce pour times by an amount set by the amount of mana points you infuse into a potion, up to 95% time reduction.
The real question was "just how many new 6x+ projects would kick off and for how long now that the item destruction fear is gone" and will it last at that rate?

>pour my pot on my plate
You pour your potion on the platemail.
1d100: 86 + Modifiers: 279 == 365
You estimate that the polished steel platemail should be ready to enchant in about 7 to 8 days.

I'd also like to know do these changes make it worth it to consider re-specing a 38 level wizard to be more enchant oriented or not? Considering you have to earn xp in order to gain the infusable mana points, fixskilling a level 38 wizard to have enough water lore to make a difference may have a lot more impact on hunting ability vs. a level 75+ wizard. Would also like to know maybe at what amount of water lore it's worth starting to consider a build change. For example, if you had 18 ranks of water lore in order to bank 3 mana per 30 base XP absorbed, then would you have to hunt so much to really bank enough mana to make a difference that it may not greatly help you in reducing your pour times. But maybe at 95 ranks it starts to make it worth it? I'm just throwing those examples out there, I really have no idea, but would like to.
