11:00am Spellcrafting
This long awaited information was presented by Spyke Alexander, Erik Krebs (aka Archon), and Dave. I had my camera out and took notes for this one!
Spellcraft is for pure casters only. Alchemy will be available for hybrids and rogues. Each is a subset of the other. You will be able to add to current drops with spellcrafting and alchemy, however, there will be stat caps. Each item will also have maximum points associated with them. You will be able to /enchant items, this can also be accomplished in trade windows as is done with /repair. The new repair window, when available, will include spellcraft and alchemy as well. It will be easy to manipulate, especially for those that are unsure, or change their minds easily.

Additional information...
You will possibly make quality items up to 105!
There will be 10 gem material types and you will need to experient to find the best ones. The spirit resists will be the most expensive, 21 being the highest for one individual gem. However, using many lower gems may be more cost and stat effective.
You will be able to alchemy and spellcraft an item, alchemy depends on your money and spellcraft depends on the points available for the item.
The basic items can be purchased, and some also dropped. The higher end components will be dropped only, some will be special dragon only drops.
Alchemy won't have white dye, but will allow you to break some stat caps!
You WILL be able to re-spec your trade skill to change to spellcraft or alchemy, BUT your skill you are changing from will revert to ZERO.
Jewelcrafting will be on the plans at at later date.
There are no plans for magical siege equipment at this time.
