* Average time per pour. May vary depending upon number of current enchanting projects and skill of wizard.

Base prices shown. See Trading for more information on variations in price.

** These potions are not publicly available on a regular basis, and have been distributed only by special event merchants.

Higher level potions may always be used for lower level enchanting projects; however this is generally not cost effective, and is usually done only when the wizard has a stockpile of high level potions.

Certain items may require the use of a Pre-tempering potion.
