Unlocking Rune Forge Enchantments

[!Supreme Grand Wizard Yoodiv]

I don't know how to reference the tutorial again...IIRC it said you have to Disenchant an ability to learn it and be able to Enchant it into other items.

Some of these abilities are ridiculously rare - for example Stunning, which is different from Stun Chance according to the wiki. Is the only way to do it to
(1) be lucky enough to find an item with that ability as a drop or in the shops
(2) If in shop, spend 25k (or whatever) on the item, then just disenchant and sell it?

Been grinding the hardest Siege, and unlocked a couple more. Next question about the Rune Forge:

I have several items that drop as "over-enchanted", their enchantment totals add up to larger than my Rune Forge can support.

If I try to modify the enchantments on those, even to lower the total to 5000, it doesn't let me save it, showing the total as 0/-500 or similar. How do you get around this?

you cant, thats the whole point, you cannot modify items above your limit(5000ess), so you must either accept item enchantment(item with 8000ess, but lots of dex for melee is useless) or make your own(max 5000 though)
since most armours have similiar base stats, just foxus on finding weapon with good dmg, crits and/or armor penetration, currently I have sword with high dmg, 107% crit chance and 1600% crit dmg, but for some reason my stat window shows I have 27% crit chance

Crit chance caps at 27%, so it useless on gear when you reach cap.

re: items with over 5000 enchantments: you can enchant them, but you must first DISENCHANT them. You still get to keep their immutable base stats. Hugely wasteful of essence, but it can be done.

re: crit chance: how can it cap at 27%? Many items give more than 27% within themself! I never heard that before now, and I'm wearing a ring and necklace that each give +40 or +50% crits, and I seem to crit on damn near every hit. I do have the passive skills to boost crits, but it's still effective, crits all the time!

Why do you think that crit chance can't go above 27% in stat menu, because it's a soft cap, but you can go higher than that.

You double you crit from 27% to 54% with pas skill, and double it again if you attack enemy from behind, here's your 100% crit.
