You must have at least 5 Arcana to be an Enchanter.
Gems come in many shapes and sizes, and can be found in Ilisara’s rich crust. They are said to be teardrops of the gods, and as such, they hold latent magical power that enchanters can unlock by etching runes into them. Enchanted gems can be embedded within weapons at the time of their creation. They can also be crushed so that the residue can be used to augment armor. Using gems, armor or weapons can be made stronger, faster, or more resilient (among a host of other mystic powers). Canny enchanters sell their unique services to other heroes, and command prices commensurate with the rarity of the work they produce.

Enchanter Reagents
Enchanters use special reagents. You will need an Enchanting Kit (costs 50 gold), and the required reagents to craft anything with the Enchanter profession. Most reagents can be purchased in town or (rarely) found underground. Remember, common gems can be transmuted into rare gems by alchemists, and rare gems into epic ones. 3 common gems equal one rare gem, and 3 rare gems equal one epic gem.
| Enchanter Reagents | Material Quality | Suggested gold price per reagent |
|---|---|---|
| Quartz, pearl, peridot | Common | 50 gold |
| Diamonds, emeralds, sapphires, stargems | Rare | 150 gold |
| Rubies, topaz, amethyst, opal, jade, moonstone/sunstone | Epic | 450 gold |
Crafting Time
Enchanters must have an Enchanting Kit and work, undisturbed, for 1 or more hours to etch a rune into a gemstone. The process takes immense concentration. Enchanters murmur an incantation while they trace a rune, over and over, into a gem until the rune takes permanent hold. If you are interrupted, the rune fails to take hold.
