The Imbuing skill allows players to imbue items with magical properties. The amount of skill determines how much magical power a tinker can imbue in an item. Tinkers can add up to five magical properties to an item. The difficulty of each attempt increases proportional to number of properties and the desired intensity. Upon first-imbue the item will receive the special item label (Imbued). Once an item has been successfully imbued, it can no longer be affected by Powder of Fortification; however, imbued items can be repaired. Failing to imbue an item with an item property does not destroy the item.

Unraveling
The Imbuing skill allows player characters to magically unravel items into Magical Ingredients. Artificers use these ingredients when imbuing items with magical power. Magically unraveling items always destroys the item in the process. Magic items are unraveled to collect the 3 main imbuing ingredients. The ingredient collected depends on the quality of the magic item unraveled. Magical items cannot be magically unraveled if they cannot be recycled or if they are made out of special material.

• Magical Residue - No skill needed
  
• Enchanted Essence - More than 45 skill needed, acquired from decent magic items
  
• Relic Fragment - 90.1 skill needed, acquired from artifacts and items with almost max intensities
  

To unravel items you must be standing next to a soul forge. Using the Unravel Container option from the Imbuing menu will simultaneously unravel all the items in the selected container. When magically unraveling an item, the artificer uses a soul forge and then selects which item he wishes to unravel. One of two results will occur: The unraveling process fails. No ingredient is acquired. The unraveling process succeeds. The artificer receives one or more ingredients, and the magically unraveled item is destroyed. Unraveling a magic item requires minimal skill. However, higher skill improves the quality of the ingredients obtained.

Number and quantity
Each attempt to imbue consumes a pre-defined number and quantity of ingredients based on the desired property and intensity. The number of ingredients required is based on the intensity of the property. For intensities below 90%, the artificer need obtain only two types of ingredients: a magical ingredient and a common gem. Intensities at or above 90% require an additional high-intensity ingredient, obtainable as loot or by resource gathering skills such as lumberjacking, fishing, and mining. The quantity of each ingredient required is also based on the intensity of the property. The lowest level intensities imbues require only one magical ingredient and one common gem, whereas a 100% intensity imbue requires 5 magical ingredients, 10 common gems, and 10 high-intensity ingredients.
