Its been awhile sence I have seen this question, and I know its killing all of us that dont know, so do we know for sure what skills are going to play a role in enchanting for us?

Safe bets are MD and Mech lore. Maybe not mech lore directly, but one of the things it splits into.

Also that arcane lore skill. Can't train this one yet.

It will not include a mech lore split off skill. We were told that a new enchanting lore skill would be created and no one would be grandfathered into it. This skill will be released prior to the release of the enchanting ability so that we may practice it on very minor enchantment type things (heh, never fully explained here). There will also be two spells which will be needed as well. Mend and Siphon (although Siphon may not be the final name of the spell). Mend will repair weapons damaged during the etching process and Siphon will be used to take the energy from items, rooms, or people and place it into the enchantment.

Before this question is asked. Valdrik said his priorities at the moment are finish squishing most of the bugs which pop up in DR2, take a hard look at our spells and the TM experience, and then work on enchanting and familiar updates concurrently to keep from getting burned out.

Some mech lore split off skill WILL be included in the enchating process....whichever one we will use to etch the blade. The exact skills haven't been decided but something will be needed to perform the physical etching.
