Jewelery

Rizzit · April 2014

I will quote a passage here from someone else:

you can only apply magicka, health, and stamina enchants to armor slots. While jewelry is loaded with a full arsenal of enchants from a variety of spell resistances, weapon/spell damage, armor, potions, shields, and all 3 regen stats. I cannot emphasize enough how much this confuses me. It seems completely contradictory to the overcharging system that the 7 slots of gear can only be given a variety of 3 enchants while the 3 slots of jewelry can be given (educated guess) a variety of 14 enchants. Hopefully I am horribly mistaken. I believe this contradicts overcharging because it prevents players from diversifying their stats.

And now we add the fact that:

-You can't enchant any Set Items,

-You can't enchant any Boss Drops:

-You can't enchant any Quest Rewards:

The only thing you actually can enchant is this:

I cannot emphasize enough how much this confuses me.

You can't enchant those items because they already have enchants on then. If you notice the boss drop already has Robust on it, which adds stamina, and the quest reward also has Robust on it, you know the + stamina. Not sure what is confusing here.

The only argument I can see to be made here is you can not tailor those items to your specific needs by overwriting the enchant that is placed on them. However, unless I am misremembering something, you could not overwrite enchants on items any Elder Scrolls game. I would however agree that maybe they should allow it in this game, since as you pointed out we are penalized when a stat goes to high, and in most cases that cap is pretty damn low.

Robust is not an enchantment it is a trait

You dont understand the post, read again please it has nothing to do with robust that is not an enchantment. Not sure where I mentioned traits in this post...

I've overwritten a weapon enchantment on a blue sword I got from a CE treasure map chest. It used to say +8 shock damage, and that was overwritten with my damage shield weapon glyph. I agree that the restrictions on not being able to enchant most jewelry is very weird. I have a ton of runes but so little to use them on as I only have two weapons and a very limited supply of the only 3 runes which can be applied to 5 slots of armour.
