Inscription

Scrolls, runebooks, wizard staves, contract scrolls and the Elementalist's spellbook.

Overview

Inscription writes spell scrolls and a set of shard tools for mages, merchants and crafters. Spellbooks and blank scrolls themselves are bought from mage vendors.

What It Does

• Scroll windows by circle: 1st -25 to 25, 2nd 11 to 39, 3rd 4 to 54, 4th 18 to 68, 5th 32 to 82, 6th 46 to 96, 7th 61 to 111, 8th 75 to 125. Each scroll costs the spell's reagents, a blank scroll and its mana.
• There is no Recall. Gate Travel is scribed at 18 to 68. A runebook needs 45 skill, 8 blank scrolls and 2 Gate scrolls.
• Wizard Staff (70): 10 boards and 2 blank scrolls; a channeling weapon for caster builds.
• Merchant Certificate (80): 10 blank scrolls and beeswax; used by Trade Packs.
• Elementalist Spellbook: 25 blank scrolls, 5 leather and an Elemental Essence.
• Contract Scroll: 10 scrolls, beeswax and a Contract Mark, makes 10.
• Disenchantment Wand (100, never fails): 10 boards and an Arcane Gem; better wood, more charges (100 to 275).
• Inscription is one third of the Protection spell's strength, with Evaluating Intelligence and Meditation.
• Spell damage: +1% per 10 points of Inscription, in both PvM and PvP (10% at 100, 12% at 120). It stacks with Spirit Speak's matching bonus against monsters. Against players and their pets or summons, the two bonuses together are capped at +10%.

On Perilous Legends

• Every successful craft rolls for a Crafting Contract: about 1 in 1,000 for Apprentice (50 items), 1 in 2,500 Journeyman (100 items), 1 in 5,000 Grandmaster (250 items), each paying gold and class coins.
• Materials used count toward the Master Crafter leaderboard. Roughly 1 in 500 crafts drops a Guild Crest.
• There is no repair on Perilous Legends; worn gear is replaced or disenchanted. See Disenchanting & Durability.

• Sockets at 100 real skill (beta value), wizard staffs included. Scribe workstation for your house. The Enchanted Quill (Scribe Quartermaster) gives +20% success.
• The Scribe Quartermaster has 25 quests and sells Inscription power scrolls.

Classes That Use It
