We should be able to imbue spell books.

Don't whine about making inscription usless, that is not a valid excuse, almost every other crafter has fallen to imbuing. A Val hammer is the ONLY item that stands a small chance to compete.

I am all for it, Inscription really blows. Even @ 3 mods, a regular spell book is just terrible so we might as well be able to put on what we want. The only thing worth trying to make is a Scrapper with extra mods but even that is insanely hard to do.

Give me a valorite scribe's pen.
Be carefull about what you're asking for, you might get it.
Unless you enjoy the mindless grind that BoDs were :coco:

Anyway, what made the BoD system viable was the sheer amount of junk properties which made 95% of the crafted items trash food.
There's not so many possibilities with spellbooks, a maximum of 3 properties ensures you'll get something valuable pretty soon.

From a logical point of vue, a warrior or archer can get an undead slayer weapon in 15 minutes tops, why not a mage?
I'm in the process, ATM, to craft spellbooks to get the undead and demon superslayers I lack and after going through roughly 30.000 scrolls, I got 3 reptile slayers.
How many tens of thousands more to get the spellbooks I need?
I write 'need' since there is absolutely no other choice than using a superslayer spellbook against mobs who have from 5 to 100 times more hitpoints than vanilla mobs, unless you like being ridiculed by warriors and archers.

I suspect spellbooks are not treated the same as other imbuable objects, otherwise we would already have them, just my 2c.

Edit: Do not forget many players will vote 'no' because they already have their slayers and would not like others to have it easier. Human nature at it's finest.

Why would i want a Valarite Pen??

Imbuing would allow me to CHOOSE the enhancments I want withou the mindless grind of gatherinf BODs or even more mindless grindeing out of a items.

Scripters already have cornered that market and I for one am glad I can make my own suit without having to WASTE resources on items that I dont want, need, or can sell.
