Description: Gives magic properties to an object in front of the spell-caster, depending on the reactive substances that are near the object. ^[e]

Effect

The effect depends on the reactive substance which was applied on the object before enchanting. Following substances can be used:

Substance	Effect
	Weapons			Armour	Gold ring	Silver ring
	Casting < 50[?]	Casting > 50	Casting > 80
Golem's heart	Paralyze for 0.5 s on strike	Paralyze for 0.5 or 1 s on strike	Paralyze for 0.5 or 1 or 3 s on strike	N/A	N/A
Garlic	+1 DEX	+2 DEX		Defense 5[?]	N/A
Bone powder	+1 STR			N/A	N/A
Dragon's bone powder	+2 STR	+3 STR		N/A	N/A
Amikar's rock	Weapon or piece of armour is fully repaired and made indestructible				N/A
Life potion	N/A			N/A	A regeneration ring	N/A
Potion of invisibility	N/A			N/A	N/A	An invisibility ring

• A dragon's egg can also be used as a substance, but this only works on weapons made of meteor steel, being the only reagent such weapons accept.
• Once enchanted, the item can't be re-enchanted with another reagent.
• Gold ring and silver ring accept life potion or potion of invisibility respectively as a reagent, as long as the player's Object knowledge skill is 50 or greater. Afterwards, they can be enchanted (regardless of caster level/level of magic) into either a regeneration ring (Durability: 30/30) or an invisibility ring (Durability: 10/10).
  • If any Enchant object spell is used on the said magic rings (as well as on the regular regeneration/invisibility rings), they are fully repaired. However, their durability is permanently halved, and the subsequent cast destroys the item. Neither caster level nor level of magic on the scroll has any influence on this effect.

Notes

• Player's casting skill is always checked if it's required, even if the spell is cast off a scroll.
• When enchanting a weapon with a casting skill of exactly 50 and using a reagent other than Bone powder or Amikar's rock, the resulting enchantment will have no effect whatsoever due to how casting skill check boundaries are defined in .asl files located in \graph\obj3d\interactive\items\weapons\ (still bugged as of Arx Libertatis 1.2.1).
• Many armour pieces have a hidden bonus to Defense that isn't reflected in item description. Armour enchanted with garlic does not get +5 to its existing Defense bonus; instead, it gets set to 5. Therefore, it's useless, for example, to enchant mithril armour with garlic.
• Item price always changes after enchanting, with Bone powder and Garlic multiplying it by 1.5, and Amikar's rock by 2. Items enchanted with Dragon's bone powder worth 3 times more the price of the base item. Hand-made regeneration ring costs 250 gold vs 80 gold for the basic golden ring, while custom invisibility ring increments silver ring's price sixfold.
• Some weapons and armour can't be enchanted:
  • Bone
  • Bejeweled long-sword of extra damage
  • Bejeweled dagger of extra damage
  • Assassin's dagger
  • Ciprian long sword of Force
  • Achanta's sword of drain blood
  • Feather-fine long-sword
  • Slayer blade
  • Cursed saber
  • Light leather leggings of extra protection
  • Light leather chest of extra protection
  • Magic plated leggings of extra protection
  • Magic plated chest of extra protection
  • Magic plated helmet of extra protection
  • Ylside leggings
  • Ylside chest armor
  • Shield of the Ancients
• Almost all the bladed weapons can additionally be poisoned by using a green potion on them, provided the player has at least 30 Object knowledge. The greater this skill is, the more poison charges are given. No Enchant object spell is required and no casting skill checks are made.
