Enchantment unlocking

[VienxInqa]

After unlocking and building " Order of the Forge " which unlocks enchanting if you have yet to spend the sovereign skill point to unlock " Enchanting Forge, I still have to spend the skill point on enchanting forge for some reason.

I know Order of the Forge give you an extra enchant slot on your items which is great. It just seems odd to have to spend a skill point on unlocking something that is already unlocked.

If your city has high production perhaps it could be better to build OotF first and focus your skill points on something else. Same can be said if you have low production. Spend the skill points to unlock EF so you can build other stuff in your city.

You have to spend the skill point because it still benefits you. Even if you build the Order of the Forge first, getting the enchanted forge upgrade still grants you a second enchantment slot.

If you build the OotF building, it opens up Enchanting (first enchant slot) and gives you a second enchant slot (for building the actual building) on your crafted. Enchanting Forge ont he skill tree opens up enchanting but only give you the basic single slot on crafted items. I do see the difference.

What I was trying to get at in my first post ( I don't always communicate things exactly the way I intend to, sorry), is if you build the building which opens up Encahnting you should have to spend the skill for somethign that you already have unlocked.

Perhaps when you build the building the skill " Enchanting Forge " gets unlock automaticaly or add an additional enchanting slot, something.

It only takes 3 skill points to unlock. You don't really have many matts to do and real enchanting that matters, but hey, at least you have the option. Friendly sarcasim.

It does, that's what I'm telling you.

Just Order of the Forge: One slot.
Just Enchanted Forge skill: One slot.
Both OotF and EF: Two slots.

Edit: You seem to think that having just OotF without EF gives you two slots. This is not the case. If you have the wonder but not the skill, you only have one enchantment slot. For all intents and purposes, they do the exact same thing (give you one enchantment slot, the first slot opening up the enchantment tab), it's just poorly worded in the descriptions.

True.

I'm just trying to explain here, why I posted what I did and why.

It was just confusing how thigns are worded in the game. OotF say's +1 Enchant slot and it opens up Enchanting, if you haven't already opened it up. That made me believe it gave 2 enchant slots.

The Enchanting Forge on the skill tree just says that it opens up enchating which the assumption is that it opens the first basic slot, no additions.

I'm new to this game. so it was confusing going by how the game was leading me by it's writing/wording. People with more experience with the game who already figured it out by using enchanting earlier than me well, they had that benifit.

Enchanting didn't seem as benificial ealy in the game as a priest since I needed the mana. Not having many matts for much hindered my experience for the first game.

Now that I am much further into the game a lot more is becoming clear. The game is enjoyment.

Yeah, the description of the wonder and the skill are a bit confusing. It's no biggie, just trying to make it clear.

Enchantment early can be pretty good, granted. You may not want to waste the mats on lower tier weapons and armor that you're inevitably going to replace, but enchanting your accessories that you'll probably be hanging onto for a long while can be golden early on.

Thank you for the clarification. :)
