Enchanting (Growth Rate and a Suggestion)

Iceclad · May 2014

Leveling Enchanting is not too hard. It takes time and a lot of effort. There are a lot of people selling dropped glyphs and enchanters ready to trade their crafted glyphs for similar ones made by you.

I can craft all craftable glyphs myself and it wasn't that hard to achieve (though it did take lot more than other crafts).

Most bugging issue is those VR lvl 10-10 glyphs (Monumental) which can't be crafted. In my opinion that's the biggest issue. This is the same as with Alchemy where VR5 potions are the highest ones you can craft.

I agree with most in this thread that enchanting is a joke to level. As said in here if you do not have someone on your friends list or guild to feed you glyph's to break down then you are up *** creek with-out a paddle for gaining inspiration.
Dev's this crafting tree is like all the Bot's running round, a bloody sham....

Yeah its a challange but why does everyone think it should be completed in 5 minutes. Enjoy the challenge so that when you reach the top you got there through hard graft.

Too many games are easy, I like that many elements of ESO aren't.

What i've found having played 2 characters now is the sudden jump in level of the potency runes i find. I was working along quite nicely then suddenly every single potency rune i find is above my level i'm currently at,which is level 2. Level 3 in unlocked at rank 10, but even with hunting down every rune i can find, using the ability to see them easier, every single potency rune i then find is level 3 and above.
Then the amount of experience you get every time you create a rune is weak compared to the other skill lines.
So i cant get high enough to improve the enchanting. I only get potency runes within my level via my 'courier' and that isnt very often and not every time.
I've advanced my Alchemy to near master level, same with leathercraft/clothing and woodworking, my Provisioning is also master level. But both times i've played, Enchanting gets left behind.
I always notice in guild banks, the potency runes for sale are all level 3 and above, because i guess so many give up as they cant get above level 3.
I know the devs have noticed this. I even saw them mention they would improve it, but i've not seen any yet!

My problem with enchanting is that it is so ridiculously far out of line with EVERY OTHER SINGLE crafting profession when it comes to progression. I have mastered all of them, except enchanting, and could probably master them all again from scratch before I end up mastering enchanting. You could master provisioning 10, 20, hell maybe 50 times with the same level of time and effort it takes to master enchanting.

It is an obvious balance issue with no obvious reason, other than *** poor design, which Zeni has admitted to, since they have told us they are going to retool it.
