Expert

Expert
These are some specialisms which require more dedication than the other crafts. All these specialisms are members of the same craft: Expert.
Reforge
Allows skilled Enhancers to take apart a metal item, and reconstruct it using a different type of metal. For example, a bronze chainmail reforged using mitrill provides better protection and halves its weight. Both the skill needed and the cost for reforging an item raise with the items level and size. Use the 'Reforge' command to reforge.
Sharpen
Allows crafters to use their skill to sharpen a weapon. A sharpened weapon does more damage. The skill needed in sharpening an item rise with the items level and the sharpness of the weapon. You can damage an item when you are sharpening it. When you damage it too much the weapon is destroyed. Use the 'Sharpen' command to sharpen.

Enchantment craft

Enchanting
Enchanting uses the will of the enchanter to imbue a crafted item with magical energies.

To enchant an item, you need one item to enchant, and one item to drain. By enchanting you 'heave' the power from one item to the next, destroying the drained item in the process. You can select the power you want to 'heave' yourself.

You can enchant 90% of a crafted item's max enchantment without having to pay glory. Non-crafted items, and enchanting the second half of a crafted item, costs glory (Keep your eye on the enchantment menu. When a glory amount is specified, -it will cost glory!!-. Each item has its own 'maximum enchantment', which can be seen when you identify it. Special and Exceptional crafted items have a far higher enchantment then normal items.

Typing 'enchant' will give you a self-explanatory menu, that will guide you through enchantment.

Enchanting potions
You can use enchant to enchant a fluid container, changing it to a healing potion, mana potion or even exploding potion, depending on the pearl added. Note that the size of the container doesn't matter, so its best to use a large barrel filled from cooking.
Enchanting jewellery
Smithing allows you to forge jewellery. When you use the forge command to make jewelry, it will ask you to specify a gemstone. Note that you need to use at least metal of a certain value compared to the gemstone used.

Note that jewellery only recharges when worn.
