  • Jagang: back again to stimulating the market
  • Brazil: ahh, so like getting arcane leggings... but you need a wizard with the right smithy skill to unlock the enchantment
  • Jagang: yeah something like that, like lets say your smith makes a pair of Strong Steel Leggings , then an enchanter has a imbue memorized - "Greater Fire Protection", after she did her thing , it would be Strong Steel Leggings of Greater Fire Protection
  • Jagang: Or an alchemist makes a potion of luck, then a miner supplies gold flakes to go in the potion , which makes it The Entrepreneur's potion - 10% more gold from monsters
