I do NOT take credit for this. Found it on the forums in the ESO forums so I feel like it is okay to share the information. What I need to confirm is "re-learning" all of the ESSENCE runestones for each tier of potency runes. For example, you create 15 glyphs (using 1 of each type of essence runestone) with tier 1 potency (Jora/Jode/Parode/Notade). You then create another 15 glyphs (again using 1 of each type of essence runestone - that you've already discovered) now with tier 2 potency (Jera/Ode/Jejora/Tade). Rinse and repeat with tier 3-9 potency runestones. Can anyone confirm this? I suspect this is not the way it works but it could be the case, and if so, would be a HUGE way to level up enchanting. I have already confirmed that you do not get a "re-discovery" bonus for going between potency runestones in the same tier (Jora<->Jode).
Welcome to Profit's Enchanting guide 101
So before we get started, I need to ask a few questions!
• Are you tired of collecting Rune-stones, creating glyphs and extracting them to get minimal experience?
• Are you stuck between levels 12-16 having learned all the current runes available?
• Are you collecting Rune-stones waiting for Enchanting to get patched, fixed/addressed?
If the answer to all of these is YES then I have some bad news for you, YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG.
But do-not fret I am here to help.
As I type this, I'm currently sat at level 28 Enchanting, same level as my Character, I can create Purple Veteran 1-3 Glyphs. Not only this I'm sat on enough materials to easily level up-to level 34+
So how can you level up enchanting quickly?
Well first off, if you're new to Enchanting let's quickly cover the basics.
You need one each of the following Runestones
Creating glyphs
• Potency Runestones [Square] - These determine the level of the Glyph created Level 1-10, 10-20 and also what item the glyph can be attached to i.e. Weapon, armour jewellery.
• Essence Runestones [Triangle] - These determine the type of Glyph created, Magika, Fire Resistance etc.
• Aspect Runestones [Circle] - These determine the quality of the glyph, and the experience generated from extraction, This is a really Important point but I'll cover that later.
Creating Glyphs generates amazing experience but only when learning a new translation, after this it is sub par and not advised unless creating a glyph to use on a item and NOT EXTRACTION. Which brings me nicely to.
Extracting glyphs
Extracting glyphs generates the highest amount of experience, and is VITAL to levelling.
The glyphs must be crafted, and they must be crafted by someone else, so having a fellow enchanter is VITAL.
A level 40-50 Purple Glyph generates 5-7k Enchanting XP per Glyph!
If you don't have a fellow enchanter, buying these glyphs will pay off this early into the game as usually the first group of people to max a craft are the first ones to cash in, as in all businesses, you have to spend money to make money.
End Game enchanting is going to be huge.
So armed with this information how do we level up enchanting fast.
Once you've learned all the translations stop creating glyphs for that tier, just stop it!
But if we stop creating glyphs, we'll have all these materials. Good.
Potency runestones have a Potency level 1-9, once you've leveled up to a higher tier, stop using the previous tier potency, {don't worry these will get used eventually, and I'll cover that later} otherwise this is a complete waste of Aspect runestones, which are your bread and butter to leveling up. The more you have the more you can make.
So you now have mat's you've learned all the translations for that tier but you need experiance to level up, what you need now is a fellow enchanter at the same level as you or above.
Now you give him all your materials, have him craft the highest tier glyphs he can create using the best aspect runes you can afford, at early levels this is going to be:
• Ta - Level 1 White (Base) Glyphs
• Jejota - Level 2 Green (Fine) Glyphs
• Denata - Level 3 Blue (Superior) Glyphs
(TIP) Always use the highest tier Potency with the best Aspect you can:
• x1 level 3 Potency used with a Denata will give better XP than
• x3 level two Potencys with Ta even tho there is more of them.
The Better the aspect and the higher the potency, the better the experiance you are going to get back from extracting, and don't worry about using all your best aspects, you may get some back in this process which = free XP.
So he's used all your materials and created you lot's of glyphs and got XP for doing so, great.
Have him trade you all the crafted glyphs back to you, now before you extract, hover your mouse over the Enchanting XP bar. Make a note of how much experience you have/need to level up. I do this in group chat etc. ie 34056/89000
Start extracting and watch that XP roll in, it's insane how much you get. Now if you've leveled up enough to use a higher potency, have your enchanter friend pass you all his materials, create the best glyphs you can make.
If you did this properly and pre-planned you should be able to create him a higher tier potency and learning the new translation from this tier will grant you huge amounts of experience.
Pass him back his glyphs, have him extract and level up, make sure to continue to make new glyphs with items you got back from extracting, rinse and repeat until neither of you can make anymore glyphs.
Congrats, at this rate you should now both be leveling steadily, not getting pathetic XP from extracting your own glyphs.
Rinse, repeat. Put skill points into it use a higher tier, at some point someone will ask you for help, use your lower tier Potency that you no longer use to create glyphs for them. If the potency is still higher than they can use, they will get loads of XP and love you forever.
Remember help each other and you will all level up fast, if you try to do this craft solo. You're already failing.
Hope this helps, bit long winded, feel free to ask any questions, and sorry in advance for any spelling errors or mistakes. I will review and keep this upto date.
Good luck crafting!
