Spell Rank Boost
This certificate grants the ability to add +5 spell ranks (max +50) to an existing spell rank enhancive (purchased from a previous run) OR a new item will be created (with 75 charges) for one spell circle of your choice (except Arcane).  If an item will be created, please specify a worn location in your WHISPER.  This cannot be added to existing items that do not already have the spell rank enhancive.  This enhancive will only work for characters who have at least 30 spell ranks in the selected circle, and the trinket is restricted to professions that can natively cast from the chosen circle.
