Weeee I'm thinking that one is a typo by the devs though... should be Endowed, not Endowment... but we'll see

Excellent guide, and good information! Just to add what I've found doing Artificing Ranked Items and Color Crystals and Enhancements Ranked items reverse engineer to a higher tier of the same rank item. Might Hilt 2 will RE to the same Rank, but higher Tier Might Hilt 2 and then to Advanced Might Hilt 2 with the same exact type of stats, just slightly higher. The same is true for Crystals and Enhancements, from base green, to base blue to advanced purple. Focuses and Shields This is where it gets wierd. So far I've been able to get cross type schematics when reverse engineering the green versions of these. I'm about half asleep here atm, but i can list the actual item names and stats from the game Focus of the Intellect Blade 19 End 15 Will 110 Force Critical Focus of the Intellect Blade Only adding 8 critical rating and no other stats. Same level requirements Endowment Focus of the Intellect Blade Now has the same stats as the green item, plus the added stat of the blue item plus a new stat called Surge (10 Surge) and somehow force has increased from 110 to 135. I also believe I've gotten cross schematics, for a shield out of a focus, but i will have to keep a closer eye as i wasn't certain what item i just RE'ed. Keep up the good work, excellent info

I only tried crafting briefly on a sage, and by mid teens she was craftign much better items than she was looting or getting from quests. Making purple quality hilts and mods via artificing, so i'm guessing it will remain the same for some time. It was a rather nice feeling being able to craft fairly decent upgrades as she was leveling up.
