Little issue with enchantement.

Hi hi everypony :)

Quick question about enchantement, is there a trick to levelling it up, while keeping on par with your actual level?

I had to harvest for about 1.5 days in a lower level area to gather enough runes to get back to a level that was usable on items I created.

Right after levelling so I can enchant Rank1 to 3... I turn Rank4 :(. So all the items I create, I can not enchant.

Considering the amount of times and runes it takes to gain a level, I'm probably doing something wrong...

Would anyone please enlighten me as to what I could possibly do wrong?

I primarly create and deconstruct the runes of my level, using the highest quality runes I get (purple, then blue, then green, and finally whites), and the highest possible outcome for each glyph I create, then dissassemble. Yet, I'm just L26 on enchanting... I'm assuming I am missing something here?

    seems like it levels up much slower compared to my blacksmith

    It does not even compare with Clothier/woodworker. Both are in the high tiers now. I can craft stuff for VR levels I have not reached yet. But enchant, I can't even craft for my own level, and it is really far behind...

    If I am doing it correctly, then, the only logical reason is the lack of runes. I found a few spots in some areas with 7+ nodes, and gathering them, in a loop (manually, not automatically, as so there is no confusion :) ), is extremelly tedious, and completly immersion breaking. I'm hero, I just beat the living hell of a godlike being, but I have to keep gathering runes for hours, the rest of the world's troubles can wait while I gather those runes :D

    Seriously though, considering the sheer amount of essence runes, they really have to make it so each runes gives 3 to 5 runes at random for essence, and at least 2 for aspect and potency. Alternatively, signigicantly boost the crafing xp gained for enchanting, by about 3 or 4 times if I am not mistaken in my esitmations.

    after some spamming in global i got some enchanters on my friend list that i can trade green/blue glyphs with and it just make your xp bar go nuts.
    White glyphs made by others is of no use at all to gain from.
    i gained almost 10 lvls (20-30) in 3 days with Trading glyphs.

    Is this working as intended? or a bug/exploit? One of my guildies offered to do this, but since the banhammer is floating heavilly at the moment, I'm not inclined at taking chances right now :)

    I think the problem is with potency runes. I collect a lot of the others but the potency ones are those I can't use as they are too high level. I can't use them so I can't progress much even though I deconstruct most of what I grab from bad guys

    Potency and Aspect for me. I get more aspect granted, but the potency "Ta" is virtually useless for xp gain.

    Shameless indeed :) but confirming the exchanging glyphs part... I'd just like confirmation if this is working as intended, or a bug :(. I won't do it, unless someone from ZOS confirms it is normal :D

    And thank you @sneakyfool for the guide :)

    What I've been doing is crafting glyphs, then posting them reasonably cheap in my guild store. Then, I browse the store for reasonably priced blue/green glyphs crafted by others, purchasing them, and then extracting them.

    I can't say one way or the other whether or not the glyph-trading is going to be a ban-worthy issue. But I do know that the xp gain difference between extracting your own and extracting another player's is intentional.
    The moment you call someone stupid, or try to display your opinion as "fact", you lose all credibility.

    Woodworking, blacksmithing, enchanting and clothing professions are supposed to grant the highest skill exps from deconstructing items made by other players (alchemy and provisioning you can't decon anything, so they just level up really fast anyway).
