Help for crafting (neutral skill tree)

The crafting tree covers creating, repairing, and enhancing items.
Higher ranks unlock advanced crafting techniques and stronger enchantments.

Commands by Rank:

  Rank 1
    scribe   Write messages on signs or notes.
    enchant       Enchant a weapon with a damage bonus.

  Rank 2
    enchant       Enchant equipment with a defensive bonus.

  Rank 3
    enchant       Add a stat bonus in addition to damage/defense.

  Rank 4
    uncurse       Remove the enchantment or curse from any object.
                        Also allows removing cursed equipment.

Enchantment Mechanics:

  Warning: No item can be enchanted more than once.

  Check the odds before enchanting: enchant chance 

  Enchant bonuses are calculated as:
    Damage Bonus:  SquareRoot(Spirit)
    Defense Bonus: SquareRoot(Spirit)
    Stat Bonus:    SquareRoot(Spirit) (2 bonuses at Rank 3, 3 at Rank 4)

  Enchanted items have a 25% chance of becoming cursed.
  Destruction chance: 50 - (Rank x 10) + (Enchantments x 20) - (Spirit / 4)%
