[@charliem5604]

I'm so glad I gave this game as many chances as I did. Not going to lie the game felt pretty unbearable at first, but now I'm starting to really appreciate that aspect of the game. When I actually do something correctly it feel so rewarding and the game has an atmosphere that just keeps me coming back. Thank you for your guides too I wouldn't have gotten as far as I have with out them.

[@tangrunhua]

C4G: Makes an Outward video. The Hallowed Marsh theme: Allow me to take over this whole video.

Okey let me grab my Grand soul gems oh wait..... Hehe nice guide thank you!

[@sunstroke1405]

Just finished Soroboreans DLC without enchanting anything... Now, thanks to your video, gonna prepare myself for Caldera. Thank you for all these guides! You are making my life easier, hehe.

[@renaudalarie4283]

Hell yeah! Same

[@TheRmm1976]

People are complaining about ineffectiveness of the enchantments but some of these seem pretty massive to me... Such as the weightless one which adds attack speed and drops 50% weight on a weapon. Very cool.

[@Yfrith]

its the fact that they dont communicate it properly, the fact u need to look up to wiki on how far is far, is such a bad game design

[@arrogantsavant2960]

@@Yfrith I agree with you in that regard. The most eerie thing about enchanting is that no NPC in the game ever mentions it exists.

[@kevinerbs2778]

try poltergeist on vampiric bow. The vampiric bow's normal ability is better with the raw always being consistent & you can increase the shot speed by not having to shoot a full stamina pull to do damage.

[@mikoajczechowicz1652]

Thank you very much mate. I read the fan-wiki three times and still got not clue how this shit works. Pretty straight forward and "on point" guide. My dumb-ass though purple scrolls were indigrents of enchantments. So glad someone took time to record the process for me to see.

[@brothergrok]

Enchanting is so convoluted in this game lol

[@xCHOPZx]

Why don’t they just have 2 transparent rings on the ground showing the distance from the center of the pedestal to each distance required while placing towers?.

[@iphoeniximarco5488]

or if they think that breaks the immersion, just places in the regions with a stone ground with these lines. Would make sense since you are not the first or only one who ever enchanted a item in this world ^^

[@Quadrolithium]

Quick tip: Close: 1 step from the center Far: 1 dash from the center If you're having difficulty facing the right direction, equip a bow, and Aim, I do agree on the tip of the previous user. But not to break immersion, do now make it a unique area, instead build it in the map like having corridors that has tiles that are arranged in the same distance as the enchantment. But I am already used to enchanting that I can enchant in Caves/Dungeons to the point I prefer narrow corridors. Makes arrangement simple And trust me, some enchantments can only be done inside dungeons

[@AyoMousy]

Cause they dumb af trying to be different instead it costing people to not even try this headache

[@KingChiefGaming]

Guides are dope. Friend just gifted this game to me. I watched them all now.

[@ToxicHazard94]

This was so much more helpful than some other instructions for enchanting thanks!!

[@josemata3679]

Rolling once and taking a step or two works for far and the close should be about a step away from the edge of the table walk into the center of the table and boom should work hope this helps 😅

[@kass9287]

Thanks! Couldn't figure out the far distance, was nice to see a quick tutorial on it.

[@krissuergames5167]

Just bought the dlcs and started a fresh character. Thx for the guide coz otherwise it would take me a lot of time to understand how that works lol

[@Venzo77]

you can exactly measure distances between pillars and pedestal and memorize it on the squared pavement just outside ramattan.

[@ES21007]

How much is it for close and far? I hate enchanting. Literally everything else in the game I'm fine with, but this feels stupid and needlessly complicated. I'm just walking around following these directions and nothing. I just want to enchant my goddamn sword with Whiplash and it ain't doing shit. And I've completed the main quests and the Sorboreans.

[@Quadrolithium]

@@ES21007 for me it is: Close: Walk until you get the pilar right at the edge of the pedestal Far: Dodge button.

[@GamerRoman]

The amount of enchantments and enchantable items seems low for the amount of effort you put into this

[@Miazger]

Wut !?!? Look on wiki

[@KubinWielki]

Guys, he clearly stated that he's only explained the recipes you can buy from a merchant. A separate video will go in-depth with all the possible enchantments (of which there's LOTS), because the system is designed for the player to experiment, so C4G wanted to avoid spoilers.

[@Charccy]

Quite the opposite, in my view. This innovative enchanting system is the reason why I'm going to buy the DLC. I only hope there woun't be any "Skyrim entchantments" possible, like 1-hit-dragonkill-dagger items.

[@9kArdos3]

@Legendary Vocalists Enchanting is for strenghtening specific builds in specific ways for specific situations, by the way the entire game is like that, you need multiple characters to be effective in different scenarios(Legacy chests). You basically explained how and what kind of stupid you are.

[@Daevectus]

@@9kArdos3 If you find yourself having to be so pompous about knowing something *so incredibly basic* that you see the need to lord it over someone else and insult them for not understanding it, you probably don't get the chance to chime in often, because *you're more often the one that would sound stupid.* So, this must be an exciting time for you. Congratulations!

[@proximity5495]

I came back to replay this and I have no idea about enchanting. Thx for the content

[@D3thmau5]

Amazing guide! Super detailed thank you!

[@Miazger]

9dots delivered on enchanting system it's complex on its own and makes magic in this game look very complex from lore stand point Only complain I have it's that some sets like gold lich and Jade lich have only 2 options for armor and flux enchantment on boots And I was hoping to build a speed demon with javel bird and Master trader armor and boots with something like 2 times movement speed but I can only put flux enchant on Master trader boots for 3% more speed

[@RandomPinoyGamer]

Hey man. Hope you read this and I'd just like to ask an immersion question because I feel like you're the go to person for this. Hope you see this lol. I've been scouring the internet for how to learn enchanting in outward 'in-game'. Basically an enchanting teacher of sorts. I know how to enchant because of learning about it here and other places. But it's just a peeve of mine having 'wiki-games' and I love outward to death like you love gothic. Like the lack of a Rune Magic teacher even if there literally is already a Rune Magic trainer, dude still won't teach you combinations lol. I just wish everything in the game is something that can be learned in somewhat detail "in-game". Thing is, I hope an enchanting teacher is a thing in a hopefully Outward sequel. I hope they fix this lol. But if there's an enchanting teacher then I stand corrected HAHA

[@stevenacosta333]

I couldn’t seem to figure it out I’m placing the pedestals as said in the video and using the correct items but the upgrade just won’t go through

[@tuffterrell]

Glad there's no spooky looking pentagram

[@Legend-27]

Yo that’s my favourite rapper 1:59

[@Ankhyron]

Thanks, this was very helpfull.

[@AdonanS]

These devs have a lot of interesting ideas. I wasn't sure if I would like this game, but a lot of their design choices add dynamics you don't see in other RPGs, and they usually end up making the game more fun. For instance, I wasn't sure if the magic system would be my cup of tea, but having to make a small journey to unlock the ability makes it feel more special, assuming you didn't just run straight there from the start. On top of that, mana management is far more important, and you have to be little smarter about your magic use.

[@kurisu1204]

i did everything right with rainbow hex ench. but it still does not work. any suggestions?

[@joram807]

Same I'm in fog in Emmerkar I still cant get it to work , I really don't like this system to be honest, love outward, don't like enchanting.

[@tylrkozelisky6252]

thank you for the video one question though can you enchant something multiple times?

[@helom.f.1041]

Nice Video, thanks for it

[@alexplant2791]

Thank you , for your video tutorial , I'm trying to get thirst for the vampiric weapons , but it doesn't work , the pillars are bitch and hard to understand , can you do a video for All the enchantments man? Will be great

[@bowenbeebe1356]

I think its busted been at the thirst enchantment for hours

[@Hagashager]

@@bowenbeebe1356 same, I can't get *any* enchantment with a "Far" pillar to work.

[@AdonanS]

Wait, so if the front of the pedestal is facing south, would that mean a pillar that requires north placement is placed at the front, or back of the pedestal? Nevermind, your example answered my question.

[@elgringofeo9348]

So more ritualistic magic ... noice

[@sleepingninjaquiettime]

I just started this game and it's awesome. The graphics threw me off a little but the games great

[@brott9678]

I noticed you have the Caged Armor, how do you get the metalized bones reagent to craft it?

[@Johannicus]

My guess is end game bosses.

[@jonahstewart3068]

They are from Elite variants of the Boozu and Sublime Shell Horror

[@kevinerbs2778]

in the definitive version they will random drop eventually anywhere there is a boss mini boss or tough enemies. I have two metalized bones & have not done any arenas at all.

[@debaarlox4149]

I m experimenting with hex mage builds. One pyro mage (hex mage, philosopher and hermit). U can get 105% fire damage bonus without armor. Ring of Fire and spark are still ur main damage spells. My second build is a Lightning Based mage. (Hex mage, hermit and merchant). The merchant skill comprehise a bite the lagg of stamina reg when ur very tired. Besides the sigil of wind is Core to cast spark, conjure and the pistole. U can get minimum 60% more Lightning damage without armor. What do u think, any tipps for improvement?

[@toxicalyss]

Elemental particle where to get them in bulk

[@walterlaten7662]

Wow thank you evry video i watched put the close ones way too far and the far also u did it perfect i got it in 1 try thank you

[@asgarzigel]

where to get the materials for the incense would be important too

[@DeadSnake13]

New maps

[@yeonsharien]

why I never get Boozu item? Until today I might have kill thousand of Boozu but still didn't get Boozu item to craft boozu bag!

[@LordReywer]

Any idea if I you can still play online coop if only 1 person has the DLC? Or will the additional content be unavailable for both players when playing together?

[@WalrusWithBenefits]

2:55 Wait what? So I set up the front/back of enchanting table inverse to north/south? So I then sort the pillars inversely to the already inverse alined enchanting table? Or sort the pillars regularly to the already inversely aligned table? I'm so confused by your explanation. Can someone please help me?

[@Daevectus]

If game says north, pillar goes north, if game says south, pillar goes south, etc. The positioning of the table isn't related to this, setting it up a certain way is just for preference.

[@christiansnow8268]

Can o just get hit by a fire for this enchantment?

[@christopherlee3561]

How do you get to the research lab to get more incense

[@alec7568]

Would enchanting magical armour or weapons make you lose the original effect. For instance, if you enchanted mertons fire poker would you lose that little bit of fire damage?

[@click4gameplay]

You can only enchant certain weapons and armors. I'm pretty sure you can't enchant merton's fire poker, or any other unique piece of gear.

[@alec7568]

@@click4gameplay thankyou for that reply! Okay ill use a different item for an example. What about perhaps a palladium sword? Would it lose the lightning damage it already has? Or I saw you could enchant the ash armour, does this replace the poison defence already on the armour? Also, thanks for the content my man, these are grest videos.

[@kevinerbs2778]

@@click4gameplay poltergeist works on any main weapon.

[@zilvoxidgod]

Are enchantments consumed by the encahnting process? Or can you re-use the same scroll

[@Flourikum]

Scroll just tells you what you need not a consumable.

[@surgeprotector248]

Wait wait wait.....are we your fans who are rpg lovers, or are we your lovers who play rpgs?

[@JockieDTV]

i see a lot of blood altars,can you please show us how to use it too?

[@JL-tn1kv]

Enchant an iron weapon, rondel dagger, or recurve bow with thirst. It will start of as parched. Once you do enough damage with that weapon, it will become quenched. Take a quenched thirst weapon to a blood altar at night, and you’ll get a special weapon

[@sawe3172]

I was going to ask about the build, but how do you have both rupture and the blood sigil???

[@matthelfrich4528]

Probably debug menu. You can't do that on the normal gsme

[@mrblue6201]

Do you have to have the recipe in your inventory in order for the enchant to work?

[@Daevectus]

Nope

[@histhoryk2648]

Hey could you made video about modded Juggernaut class?

So it can fly, *duh.*

[@jonahrobberts2909]

How does the poltergeist enchantment work for the weapons?

[@kevinerbs2778]

it makes the raw damage half of what it is after enchanted. I did a vampiric bow which is normal damage is 48 for it. It makes the raw damage is 12 the vampiric bows damage droped to 24. The nice thing is the normal ability on the vampiric bow is now always gaining more that 0.1x blood leach, without having to use up all your stamina for a quick shot for damage.

[@aidenpike1974]

Can you enchant tsar armor?

[@Miazger]

Yes look an the wiki

[@J-roll1]

I love completing games achievements and on xbox the achievements are locked behind the dlc which is annoying

[@htf5555]

Has anyone been able to make the Adrenaline enchantment work? like, I followed the requirement and nothing happening. does it require a blood sacrifice or something? how do you make this fucking shit work?

[@maksimlozanoski]

I just got Elex. Do you think its worth playing?

[@debaarlox4149]

Absolutly! I spend 200+ Hours in 3 runs. A the Start the game feels hard and a bite unfair but it makes a lot of fun. The only Point i didnt like so much was the melee combat System. I Wolf recommend to increase ur stamina (in the options: u have 4 options: Low, normal, a bite more (i would recommend this Option) or without stamina cost ( but this breaks the combat System and it s way too easy)

[@fated4glory816]

I've been sitting here for over a half hour replacing my far pillars to no avail, this is honestly a terrible system. I am about to abandon it altogether 🤬

[@aabatteryalex]

Well then

[@Sal_Mohn]

Goodness, thats overly complicated. I mean, it's neat, but I'm not a fan :S

[@Daevectus]

It's no more complex than the rest of the game, having tons of unmarked areas, characters unmarked on maps, mechanics unexplained that you have to figure out yourself, timed missions that don't say they're timed, and a large etc... I'd say after viewing this tutorial this should be one of the EASIEST things in the entire game for you to do, if you think about it.

[@TheTogoRojo]

Far pillars can be a pain in the ass. FULL STOP LOL. I love this game but I'm not a fan of enchanting as a mini game.

[@AyoMousy]

I love outward but they need to stop adding all this secret, do it yourself, learn by trial and error x9000 degree altitude x latitude fort Lauderdale = equations. LOL like dog 9Dot ain't no triple A to be doing this 🤣 It's simple once you get it in theory but if there was no youtube or internet and we was still in the paperbook guides / call gamemasters era ain't no way in hell anyone is figuring it out.

Gonna be honest... This feels *extremely* underwhelming all things considered. Hopefully it gets expanded upon in the future. Maybe even include a "transmog" aspect for those of us who appreciate the arbitrary ability to change our armor appearances to what we wish.

[@jomomma900]

Well this definitely made me not want to buy this dlc.. I was excited about enchanting but my goodness it’s way too complicated and specific.
