    I'm 99.9% sure this will not affect Enchanters one bit, just like the Master weapon enchantments.

    Enchanting keeps on sucking, and meanwhile, they add new enchantments as loot to make the profession even more useless.

    Don't agree with your views on enchanting so I am not even going to bother with a list of reasons as to why, but do think it's too early to argue anything about this addition until there is more information. As usual, ZOS did such a rotten job of presenting this that there is no way to know without proper details.

    One thing you can bet though is that it will be possible to make new glyphs of some type, since there are new mats to collect for them (see screenshot, two of the new potency rune are worth one big chunk of TV stones even from a vendor)... Will we be able to decon the prismatic enchants? craft something similar? this is definitely one of the things I intend to check out on PTS and find out what's what, especially in the adbsence of ZOS bothering to give any decent info on the subject.

    I agree, i wish zos had provided much more information. Their quakecon presentation was poor at best.

    I too cannot wait to get on pts to see about deconstructing the glyphs along with much more.

    Thanks for posti g this screen shot, its nice to see an idea of prices for the mats.

    I would say provisioning and alchemy are more useful than enchanting, as the passives can increase the durations and effects of the consumables.

    I suppose, but the bonus through glyphs is also quite helpful for both armor and weapons. Not to mention the economic perspective that enchanting has. I have made more money with this profession than all of the other ones combined. Most of the crafting in ESO is backwards. The materials are more expensive than the value of the item you craft with those materials. But, not with enchanting; there is a very nice profit margin.

    This. Gear is overall too easy to get the best of regarding crafted items, and hopefully the imperial city marks a small shift away from that. It would be fine in a single player game maybe even though boringly trivial, but it doesn't work for an MMORPG. Enchanting is the only trade in the game that isn't backwards on it, and even though it became much easier to level most people still haven't for some reason (I'm sure not complaining!). Alchemy has a small but steady enough margin.

    Prismatic enchantments excited me to see... if it works like purple food and you get a higher total stat allocation I can definitely foresee myself using a couple of them, as I run purple food in most things but trials for that same reason and most of my builds get a lot of use out of any resource type. :D

    I absolutely agree, and I hope IC starts putting us in the right direction too. But, we shall see.

    Nevermind figured it out. Its the new essence rune you loot from chests. Its unfortunate that they are random that you cant choose what it will be just the level and color of the rune.

    droped by baal in the sewers, from the "gold goblins" and the rarer (unlocked) chests protected by several mobs that drop 200+ TVs.

    You posted in a thread that nobody has posted in since September. It was a "dead" thread, so you submitted a "necro" post.

    Rather see them make a dual stat enchant with higher returns than prismatic. Like a stam/health, mag/stam , health/mag and maybe a new weapon enchant or jewelry enchant for each like increase wep dmg by x and reduces stam cost by x but neither as good as the solid wep dmg or stam reduction

    You find them by killing those special scamps in the sewers that randomly appear. There are two types of those scamps, gold and silver (i think).. im not sure which one drops it but best to just kill them both anyways cuz they both drop good stuff
