Talk:Of Enchanting

From Guild Wars Wiki

With regards to duration lengthening:

1. Guildwars.com states that, "Enchantments, Hexes, Conditions, Shouts, and Chants have no cap on how long they can last. Consequently, anything that extends these effects will stack."
2. This article states that, "Multiple effects that increase enchantment duration can only stack to +50% in total."

Which statement is correct?   Frostty1 06:09, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

Umm, both? There's no error in logic here, both can be true. Enchantments have no cap on how long they can last (fair enough). Anything that extends the enchantments will stack (again, fine). Multiple duration stacking effects can only stack to +50%. Thats fine too, its just saying there's no cap on the raw amount of time, but stacking up say Extend Enchantments (100%), Blessed Water (environment effect in Kurzick, 20%), and an enchanting staff (20%) will only result in the 100% from Extend Enchantments.

You can have one effect that goes past the cap, but you can't stack multiple effects as you will only hit 50% or the highest % of your enchant duration booster, whichever is higher. Feragore 15:38, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

I say that statement be taken out of the article. On the stack page it doesn't list enchantment durations. --JonTheMon 15:45, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Effects

My question about the Enchanting: Does it affect the enchantments that you cast, enchantments that are cast on you, or enchantments both that you cast and are cast on you?--JupiterStarWarrior 05:45, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

It affects any enchantments you cast, whether they be on you, or on someone else, but does not affect enchantments other people cast upon you. Magua 09:22, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
