Well lately I have been having a hell of a time leveling. Its been a pain I just got to 82 and finally figured out what I was doing wrong.

Nobody ever told me to do this I was trying everything to find an easier way to level. I mean everything from medium armor which didn't work etc.

This tip if you didn't know it doesn't mean you won't die but it has increased my leveling by 40%. It has also decreased my death rate by 75%. I have worked of my 156k dp tonight. I am even on my way to 85.

So you wondering well tell us already. ok ok. I know people were complaining after patch that enchantments sucked they landed maybe 10% of the time.

I didn't even bother training creating sap crystals cause I heard it sucked so bad.

Well tonight I was at my wits end so I went and said you know what wonder if I enchant my gloves with fear will it help me. OMG IT DID! Now you need to have a decent level fear I have level 5 atm you get it at 55 in defensive magic. But I am using it on level 71 mobs. It has concentration in it to make it stick a litte better. Or atleast I hope it help it stick a little better. Its been working great.

Enchant your gloves with fear and since we can create sap crystal out in the field keep a full supply stock up before you go hunt solo.

I seriously love it atm. I haven't died worked off my dp and I am gonna start getting to 100. You won't get xp from using them btw. So you will have to level defensive magic up in a team or have a higher level player put fear in your weapon.

This doesn't mean you can fight mobs over your level I still fight mobs 10 level below me to be safe and not die. But it can save you from Ragus torbaks etc. It will also increase your leveling speed.

I hope this helps some of you that didn't know. Just wanted to get the info out just incase.

I can't believe someone (multiple people?? ) told you create sap crystal sucked! Enchantments are an incredible asset, and I use them all the time. You can charge an item up to like 30 charges and go out into the field. Having trouble with a mob? Instant spell, no sap drained, no time wasted. Sap crystals and enchantments are the best.

Yes enchantments are fun. Once u hit 101, enchant the gloves with a double missile spell. U prolly get 3 charges, but u can let them off in 3 secs, dealing massive amounts of damage, just in case u need to kill something really quick.

I played around with offensive spells like Acid on another weapon and it seems that if you kill the mob with the enchantment, you don't get XP or are able to quarter the mob.

Fear of course works perfectly as an enchantment and I don't think you need to add concentrate since a enchantment works 100% every time.

They cast 100% of the time but they do not land 100% of the time. Resist rates are much higher against enchanted spells than against the real thing.

This is the truth. I've had my weapon enchanted spells get resisted. The one big factor is they cast pretty fast.

Enchantments drain sap from the weapon and the homin both. They also are affected by armor like a normal spell. An enchantment costs more sap/hp when wearing heavy than when wearing medium etc.

I use enchantments a lot. Elemental spells are nice for laying down some extra damage while meleeing. Fear is a nice safety valve. Placing cold on my ranged weapon made leveling 10 times easier.

didn't want to start a new thread, cause I only had a small question related to enchantments:

can you "re-enchant" an item with a new spell, or once you enchant something, is it stuck like that forever?

Yep, you can change the spell an item is enchanted with at any time.

I don't fully understand enchanting. I can enchant them, and the number on the icon goes 1, then 2... but it will go to 0 again soon. After it hits zero, there's nothing I can do to raise it up again, and the number on the icon stays at 0. I've read the guides I found in the forums, but can somebody explain what's what? What does Create Sap Crystal 3 do over 2, etc?

Thanx
