Enchant
,no edit summary
The [[Mystic]] can enchant [[items]], improving or modifying their stats in some unknown fashion. The Diablo 3 team hasn't given any specifics about what enchanting actually does, but they've said that players will probably want to enchant every item they can, so it's evidently a highly desirable bonus.
[[File:Enchant-01.png|200px|thumb|right|Enchant Interface]] ==Method== #Place item you wish to alter into the Mystic's Enchant interface and a list of properties that you can reroll (replace) on that item will appear. Click the question mark next to both to see what properties they could reroll into.#Once you have decided which property to reroll place the materials you need to give the [[Mystic]] to do so into the interface and hit ''Replace Property''.#Select the replacement property from the list of available choices. <gallery>File:Enchant-02.png|1File:Enchant-03.png|2File:Enchant-04.jpg|3File:Enchant-05.png|4</gallery> ==Scope and Restrictions== *The Mystic will offer the original property you replaced so if you don't like the new one you got you can for the price of materials and gold reroll back to the old one.*Only one property can be rerolled but it can be rerolled repeatedly, each time costing materials and gold to do so.*Enchanted items become bound to your account ([[BoA]]). ==Development of Enchanting== ===2013=== The Mystic's return was revealed at [[Gamescom 2013]] although details of all her abilities were not revealed the fact she would be able to reroll an affix ([[enchant]]) was and welcomed by the majority of the community. ===2012=== The [[Mystic]] was removed in early 2012 and her abilities absorbed by other [[NPCs]]. When asked what happens to her enchants Blizzard confirmed:<ref>[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/the-fate-of-enchants-and-socketable-rings The Fate of the Mystic's Enchants Are?] - Blizzard, 28/1/2012</ref> <blue>Oh right, uh, as far as I know the mystic enchants are just being put into the item affix pool, not gems. Might change. We’re still working on adding affixes, cutting ones that don’t work, and testing. No major changes for gems, though.</blue> ===2010===
The first mention of "enchanting" came from the [[Caravan FAQ]], released in August 2010 at the Gamescom expo. There was just a single line about the Mystic, which credited her with Enchanting, but didn't give any indication what that meant.
<blue>The mystic creates scrolls, potions, magical weapons, spell runes, and charms, and can also enchant items.</blue>
A quote from an interview with indiablo.com from Gamescom 2010 confirms that the bonuses are not random:<ref>[http://www.indiablo.de Gamescom Interview] - August, 2010</ref>
<blue>"There’s a fixed number of added bonuses. Enchants work like Gems. We wanted the enchant to do what it does each time, rather than force players to use the enchant over and over again (on the same item).</blue>
From the way Jay describes "finding enchantments" it makes them sound like [[recipes]]. Recipes are what the [[Artisan]]s use to [[craft]] new, semi-random items in Diablo III's form of [[gambling]]. Artisans know some recipes to start with, and acquire more through their level up [[training]]. But the best recipes in the game are found as drops from monsters. These recipe scrolls are then given to the appropriate Artisan, and from then on that Artisan can craft that item.
