{{TOC limit|2}}&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Enchant Item&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; spell was once used to improve the [[enchantment]] of weapons, armors, and shields, before it was replaced with the modernized [[Enchant (925)]] spell.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;The below information is presented only for historical reference.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each successful [[enchantment]] provides a permanent +5 bonus to the item&amp;#039;s [[attack strength]] (AS) or [[defensive strength]] (DS), as applicable. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is possible to enchant any combination of plain, [[enhancive]], [[sanctified]] (holy), and elemental flaring items up to a bonus of +35.  It is also possible to enchant plain and elemental flaring items up to +50 with the required special [[enchanting potions|tempering]] and [[pre-tempering potion]]s. However, most items do not make it higher than +20 via the Enchant Item spell due to the rarity of these potions and also account limitations on enchanting items over +16 AS or DS bonus.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The process of enchanting can be lengthy, but can be reduced via training in [[#Mana Pools &amp;amp; Flaring Items (Lore Benefits)|Elemental Lore, Water]] and a special potion infusion process.&lt;br /&gt;
==Enchanting Process for Plain Items==&lt;br /&gt;
The following is an explanation of how to enchant plain items, meaning any item that does not require a special tempering or pre-temper potion, up to +35 (7x).  See &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[#Flaring Items|Flaring Items]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[#Enhancive and Holy Items|Enhancive and Holy Items]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; sections for information on additional steps and/or training needed for those types of items.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Plain items include [[Forging|forged]] weapons and otherwise plain items with [[spikes]], [[resistance]]s, [[padding]] or [[weighting]], and/or [[Ensorcell]] (although additional properties add to difficulty).  Some [[functional script]]s (e.g. [[Voln armor]]) will also still allow an item to be enchanted--and will probably add to difficulty--as long as the Category B property slot is not also taken (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;see: [[item properties]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;), and the item creator has not specifically disallowed it.  The only sure way to determine whether or not an item will accept an enchantment is to try to pour a tempering potion on it. (However, [[Bless (304)]] comes very close.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
#Test whether or not wizard can successfully enchant an item by{{boldmono| [[#Difficulty Detection|CAST]]ing }}Enchant Item at the item (this will also give the temper status if the item is tempered)&lt;br /&gt;
#{{boldmono| [[POUR]] }}appropriate tempering potion on item&lt;br /&gt;
#Wait for the item to &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;temper&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (~1-17 days)&lt;br /&gt;
#Confirm temper is complete by casting [[Elemental Detection (405)]] (or Enchant Item) at the item&lt;br /&gt;
#{{boldmono| [[#Channel|CHANNEL]] }}Enchant Item at item&lt;br /&gt;
#Repeat as needed for appropriate number of cycles for desired enchant&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Base enchanting potions are readily available for purchase to enchant plain items up to +35 (7x) at town [[:Category:Alchemist Shops|alchemist shops]] and within each branch of the [[Wizard Guild]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;During the Enchanting process (anytime between final{{mono| CHANNELs}}), an item cannot be used for its usual function. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each subscribed account with a wizard(s) may only have one &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Major Enchant&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; project in progress at a given time. This includes any further enchantment upon an item with a starting bonus of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;+16&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; or higher.  There is no limit to how many projects a wizard may have with a starting bonus &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;+15&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; or lower.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Difficulty Detection ==&lt;br /&gt;
A wizard&amp;#039;s chance for success in enchanting an item can be determined by{{boldmono| [[CAST]]ing }}Enchant Item at an item.  This can be done without first tempering the item, but an item must be tempered to get the most accurate reading, since potions, especially pre-tempering ones, may add a considerable penalty.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Due to the recent release of [[Enchant (925)]] to replace the Enchant Item (925) spell, now referred to old system enchanting, you are now required to hold any old system potion in your hand to get a difficulty reading based on the old system enchanting formula. Holding a potion can be bypassed if the item is already being tempered on the old system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The corresponding messaging for the{{boldmono| [[#Channel|CHANNEL]] }}attempts are included here in the chart on the right for easy reference.  (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;see [[#Channel|below]] for more detail&amp;#039;&amp;#039;).  As the enchant process progresses, {{mono|CHANNELs }}become increasingly harder.  Thus, the difficulty detection reading only gives the chance for the final, hardest{{mono| CHANNEL}}.  &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;The charts below are also based on the final{{mono| CHANNEL}}&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{mono|CASTing }}at the item will also indicate how much time remains before the tempering is complete.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre{{log2}}&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt;cast my rob&lt;br /&gt;
You gesture at some flowing cotton robes.&lt;br /&gt;
You sense that the robes is one of your own projects, and it will not be ready to enchant for at least 22 hours.  It is on the final step of the enchanting process.  You recognize the vibrant yellow aura surrounding it as indicating a moderate level of enchantment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unless you are horribly unlucky, you should have no trouble enchanting some flowing cotton robes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Success Factors==&lt;br /&gt;
===Temper===&lt;br /&gt;
The factors that determine success are lumped together as &amp;#039;modifiers&amp;#039; in the activation formula. If the total of a d100 roll plus the modifiers is 101 or greater, the pour will be successful.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre{{log2}}&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You pour your potion on the runestaff.&lt;br /&gt;
  1d100: 40 + Modifiers: 327 == 367&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{| &lt;br /&gt;
|- style=&amp;quot;vertical-align:top;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
*[[MIU]] skill&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Logic]] bonus&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Intuition]] bonus&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Aura]] bonus&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wisdom]] bonus&lt;br /&gt;
*[[#Potion Table|Potion]] bonus&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
*Item Enchant bonus&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Encumbrance]] penalty&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Armor]] penalty&lt;br /&gt;
|}&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
====Tempering Formula==== &lt;br /&gt;
{{#section:Enchanting potions|math}}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Example: Wizard with 200 MIU skill, 25 LOG bonus, 20 INT bonus, 25 AUR bonus, 22 WIS bonus, Dirtokh potion (+25 bonus), Item enchant bonus + 20, unencumbered and fully trained for their armor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pour modifiers: &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;200 (MIU) + 25 (LOG) + 20 (INT) + trunc(25 AUR + 22 WIS)/2 + 25 (potion bonus) - 20 (item enchant bonus) = 273&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Encumbrance will reduce the pour modifiers by 1 for each 1% of encumbered body weight. E.g., a halfling with a body weight of 120 lbs. and 24 lbs. of encumbered weight will have a penalty of 20 to the pour modifiers total.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not being adequately trained for worn armor may penalize a character&amp;#039;s attempt to successfully pour the potion. This penalty is based on the armor&amp;#039;s [[roundtime]] adder and the wearer&amp;#039;s [[Armor Use]] skill. There is no armor penalty to the activation roll if the character is properly trained for their armor, or is wearing robes or light leather. The penalty for AsG 6 (full leather) and higher is &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;20 points per second of untrained RT adder&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. The formula for calculating the amount of Armor Use skill required to fully negate the penalty is &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;(RT adder * 20) - 10&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;An item will [[#Removing a Temper|detemper]] and revert back to its original state if left untouched for 28 days. The entire process will have to be repeated from the first temper if this were to occur.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

{{side box|&lt;br /&gt;
Of all the factors in success, Wizard spell ranks are weighted the highest in terms of how much they contribute to your overall enchanting skill. Even when diminishing returns for overtraining is considered, one rank of Wizard spell research is never worth less than one unit of anything else.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Enchanting should be considered one of the Wizardly bits that is meant to encouraging training more heavily in the Wizard base spell circle. -GM Naos}}&lt;br /&gt;
|}&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The precise formula to achieve a successful enchantment is not released. What is known is that the [[level]] and [[Wizard Base]] ranks of the [[enchanter]] are primary factors, and that carelessness while going through the motions (channeling while an item is still tempering) is the largest factor of failure. The following table lists all known factors (positive or negative), in no particular order.  &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;At the very least, a wizard should be uninjured, unencumbered and in a [[magical workshop]] with a [[familiar]] present.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
====Fumble====&lt;br /&gt;
There is a minimum 3% failure rate for the final step of any enchant, regardless of the enchanter&amp;#039;s [[stat]]s, [[skill]]s, level, or the level of the enchantment itself.  This 3% chance comes in the form of a separate [[d100]] roll that occurs before the success determination roll.  [[Gift of Eonak]] reduces the chances of a failed cast by providing two rolls and keeping the higher result (on both the fumble and success determination rolls).  On the earlier channels during the process, it is possible to have 100% success with the right training, but the final{{mono| CHANNEL }}will always be at most a 97% chance of success because of that initial roll.  A 3% fumble will always result in a [[#Locked|locked project]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
See the [[#Difficulty Detection|Difficulty Detection]] section above for the full table of Roll Result Descriptions (the second line in the log just below).&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre{{log2|margin-right=36em}}&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You channel at a polished kakore runestaff.&lt;br /&gt;
You make a good attempt!  Success!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Visible wisps of essence dance across the surface of the kakore runestaff as you chant quietly, your sure gestures guiding them to slowly coalesce into a pair of small softly glowing runic symbols.  &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;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 runestaff to form a shimmering layer over its surface.  Slowly, the radiant shell sinks into the runestaff, leaving behind a faint, fading aura.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

==Failures==&lt;br /&gt;
It is not possible to destroy an item during the enchanting process.  The four conditions of failure are: delay, damaged, locked, or reset.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===Delay===&lt;br /&gt;
A &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;delay failure&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; returns the item to tempering status and the caster must simply wait for the tempering to be completed again to re-channel.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre{{log2}}&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You channel at a crystallized teal star.&lt;br /&gt;
You make a questionable attempt.  Failure!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A muted glow instantly surrounds the teal star, flickering slightly, and fades a moment later.&lt;br /&gt;
Roundtime: 20 sec.&lt;br /&gt;
Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===Damaged===&lt;br /&gt;
A &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;damaged failure&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; will setback the step progression on the project and the item will have to be re-poured.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre{{log2}}&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You channel at a crystallized teal star.&lt;br /&gt;
You make a horribly poor attempt!  Failure!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A steady glow encompasses the teal star as you begin your chant, but suddenly vanishes, a number of multi-colored sparks dancing across the surface of the star.&lt;br /&gt;
Roundtime: 20 sec.&lt;br /&gt;
Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===Locked===&lt;br /&gt;
A &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;locked failure&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; prevents a wizard from moving forward on it. Some highly skilled [[merchant]]s can be found to remove the locked status of the project which will allow the wizard to continue where they left off (ask any merchant offering [[GALD]] services). The project can also be RESET by using a [[#Removing a Temper|sarmoc potion]] to remove the LOCKED status.  Locked status does not expire on its own after any amount of time.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre{{log2}}&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Visible wisps of essence dance across the surface of the {item} as you chant quietly, your sure gestures guiding them to slowly coalesce into small softly glowing runic symbols. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Glancing over the formation of the runes, your chant falters as you notice their forms contorting oddly. You gather something has gone terribly wrong.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A locked project can be detected by using 405 or 925:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre{{log2}}&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The layers of essence permeating the dagger unfold before you to reveal the familiar patterns of a tempering enchanting project, which you recognize as one of your own.  It is currently tempering and on the final step of the enchanting process.  &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;It appears to be locked, preventing further progress toward enchanting it&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.  You notice no aura indicating enchantment.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre{{log2}}&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;An elemental barrier surrounds the dagger, disrupting the flows of your magic.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Reset===&lt;br /&gt;
A &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;reset failure&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; will remove all progress made on the item.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre{{log2}}&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You make a very poor attempt!  Failure!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Multiple bursts of prismatic sparks blossom around the warblade as you begin your chant, showering you momentarily before a brilliant burst of light erupts from the warblade.&lt;br /&gt;
Roundtime: 20 sec.&lt;br /&gt;

The ability to store mana in a personal &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;mana pool&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is unlocked at 5 ranks of [[Elemental Lore, Water]].  The maximum amount of mana that can be stored per week is 10,000, and a grand total of 35,000 mana points can be stored.  Mana accumulates in the pool when the wizard gains base experience; every 30 base experience (XP) will provide 1 mana to the pool.  Further training in Water Lore will increase the rate that mana is gained based on a seed 5 [[summation]] of ranks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The amount of mana stored will be adjusted based on the amount of experience gained using 30 as a baseline. So if 15 XP is gained, a half point would be stored that doesn&amp;#039;t round up or down.  Two pulses at 15 XP a piece would net a full point at 5 ranks.  If one gained 18 mana per 30 XP and a pulse granted you 45 XP, 27 mana would be added to the pool.  [[Offline experience absorption]] will add to the mana pool, but [[long-term experience]] will not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Every 325 mana points from the wizard&amp;#039;s stored mana will reduce a temper potion time by 1 percent (up to 95%) and every 200 mana points can substitute as 1 lore rank for infusing elemental pre-temper potions (up to 50 ranks, see [[#Flaring Items|next section]] for more on elemental flaring items).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wizards can transfer mana from their mana pool into a potion via{{boldmono| [[INFUSE (Mana) (verb)|INFUSE]] {amount} IN MY POTION}}.  A wizard can infuse as often as necessary to infuse a potion to maximum reduction capacity.  {{mono|INFUSE MY POTION }}will reveal information about whether the potion was infused and how much it will reduce the temper time or ranks required.  The maximum mana a tempering potion can hold is 30,875 for each 95% bonus per dose.  For example, a tempering time of 14 days (336 hours) would be reduced to less than a day (16.8 hours) with a 95% temper time reduction.  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre{{log2}}&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You begin infusing a dirtokh potion and focus deep into the flows of essence.  After some consideration you determine that the potion has not been infused with mana yet and that you could probably infuse it, assuming you have enough mana stored in your personal pool.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[To infuse a dirtokh potion, INFUSE &amp;lt;amount&amp;gt; POTION.  The potion must be in your right or left hand.]&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Each potion can be infused up to 95% for each pour available in the potion. As you use a pour, it will reduce the total reduction percentage by a maximum of 95% until the infused percentage of the potion is reduced to none. Example would be a 7 pour potion that currently has infused mana to allow 150% reduction. The 1st pour would result in 95% reduced time, the 2nd pour would result in 55% reduced time, and the remaining pours would be normal with no reduction. There is no limit on the total number of potions a wizard can pre-infused and the potions never expire. However, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;once a potion has been infused, it can only be used by the infusing wizard&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&amp;lt;section begin=Water Lore Bonus/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

100 ranks of an applicable [[Elemental Lore]] are required to be able to enchant an elemental flaring item (see chart at right).  Elemental flaring items are more difficult to enchant, and training in additional applicable lore ranks above 100 ranks will grant a bonus to enchant success.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As mentioned above, deficiencies in Elemental Lore ranks can be offset by unlocking a mana pool at 5 ranks of Water Lore and infusing 200 mana per rank needed into the appropriate elemental pre-temper potion.  The maximum number of ranks that can be offset is 50, thus the maximum mana that can be stored per pour in a pre-tempering potion is 10,000.  As with tempering potions, pre-tempering potions can only be infused ONCE with a specified amount of mana before the item is poured, and the{{mono| INFUSE MY POTION }}command will indicate if the potion has been infused and how much power the potion has. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the case of hybrid elements, 100 ranks of either applicable lore is sufficient, and only one pre-tempering potion of the two that will work is required.  Pre-tempering potions must be poured at each step of enchanting before the item is tempered with the tempering potion, so a 4x-5x enchant would require a full 5 pour pre-tempering potion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;All other flares taking up the Category B item property slot cannot be enchanted by this spell and require a rare merchant service or [[Premium Point]]s.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Enhancive and Holy Items==&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|Pre-tempering potions}}&lt;br /&gt;
No lore training is required to enchant either enhancive or holy items, but these items will be more difficult to enchant than plain items.  The potions required are [[ayveneh potion|ayveneh]] and [[eoveneh potion|eoveneh]], respectively.  As mentioned above, these potions may only be used on items with an enchant bonus of up to +30.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{#section:Fusion|nopry}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Weighted, Padded, and Sighted Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Items with permanent [[weighting|weighting]], [[padding|padding]], or [[sighting|sighting]] on them can be enchanted.  There is no pre-temper potion required for enchanting these items.  The enchanting difficulty is increased based on the amount of W/P/S on the item, similar to the difficulty curve of [[ensorcell|ensorcellment]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike permanent W/P/S items with temporary W/P/S cannot be enchanted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Potion Order==&lt;br /&gt;
{{#section:Enchanting potions|order}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Removing a Temper==&lt;br /&gt;
It is possible to end the tempering of an active project in order to begin a new one. This can be performed by POURing a dose of a &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[sarmoc potion]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; on the item. Like tempering a project, detempering also takes some time (though substantially less than many temper times). Status of the detemper can be checked using [[Elemental Detection (405)]].  Further, the sarmoc potion can only be used by a wizard (though it does not need to be the same wizard who initiated the project). If the detempering project was a major enchantment, no new major projects should be undertaken until the detempering is complete.&lt;br /&gt;

{{main|Sisfu potion}}&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Rewards for Enchanting ==&lt;br /&gt;
Successful enchantments earn experience, and potentially large amounts of [[silver]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While the enchantment process does not directly reward the wizard in silver, many items are enchanted with the intent of sale.  By increasing the enchantment on an item, the wizard has increased its value, sometimes by immense amounts.  This is particularly true of major enchantments (above 4x), enhancive/sanctified/flaring gear, and enchantments of unusual items. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Major enchant projects are exceedingly valuable due to the time and skill which they take to complete, and the restriction of only one major enchant at a time. In some cases, wizards will hire themselves out to provide this service on items already owned by the customer.  Wizards capable of reducing the temper times should find their services in high demand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some wizards prefer to produce large quantities of minor enchant projects (usually bringing items right up to the 4x minor/major cutoff) for sale. While the potential for profit is lower, the work is much easier.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Experience ===&lt;br /&gt;
The [[experience]] gained from a successful cast is based on the following formula: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{equation box|{{math|Experience {{=}} (100 &amp;amp;times; Enchant Step) - Enchanter&amp;#039;s [[Level]]}}}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, a level 50 wizard, making the third cast of an enchant would receive 250 experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;code&amp;gt;( 100 &amp;amp;times; 3 ) - 50 = 250 XP&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Negative Bonus Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Items made from materials which naturally have a negative bonus have special handling within the Enchanting system. Such items require use of a potion appropriate for their relative bonus compared to an item with a 0 bonus for tempering, which can be determined by taking the actual bonus of the item and subtracting the natural bonus of the material. e.g. Modwir has a natural bonus of -10. A modwir bow with a bonus of -10 would be considered +0 (-10--10=0) and would require a rohnuru potion to temper, where a modwir bow with a bonus of +15 would be considered +10 (15--10=25) and would require a dirtokh potion to temper, though would still be considered a minor project.&lt;br /&gt;
