- Were you looking for the type of armor augments known as Inscriptions or the class lore from the RPG Inscriber?
Inscription is a profession which will be introduced in the upcoming Wrath of the Lich King expansion. Inscription will allow players to augment the cooldown, damage, or mechanics (stun, knockback, DoT, HoT, etc.) of a spell. It will have two aspects: augmentation of abilities and spells with the creation of a new type of item ("scrolls", for example, from ink, parchment, and other reagents).[1] Every player will get a new spell book page to which they can add six glyphs — currently, three major and three minor.
A sub-skill called [Milling][2] will accompany Inscription that will produce reagents (pigments) from herbs similar to how the [Prospecting] sub-skill of Jewelcrafting works.
Inscribing abilities for other characters will involve the creation of Inscription-based scrolls which can be traded, bought, or sold at the auction house in the same manner as other items.[3]
Scribes (aka inscribers) will also be able to create Vellum for enchanters to put their enchants on, this will enable enchanting scrolls to be traded, and sold on the auction house.[4]
Those who don't purchase the expansion will be able to use items created by a scribe, though only those who buy the expansion will be able to get the profession.
Official examples
- Scribes will create Glyphs that allow players to modify their spells and abilities.
- [Backstab] could be enhanced to do more damage to stunned and incapacitated targets.[5]
- [Shadow Bolt] could be enhanced to cost less mana.[6]
- [Frostbolt] could be enhanced to do more damage, but remove the slowing effect.[7]
- [Swiftmend] could be enhanced to not consume a [Rejuvenation] or [Regrowth] effect from the target.[8]
- Major glyphs will be effective in combat — adding damage over time or stun to a physical attack, for example — while minor glyphs will give convenient or cosmetic improvements, removing the need for some spell reagents.[9]
Other Beta Examples:
- Glyph of the Penguin (Mage) (Minor Glyph) - Your Polymorph: Sheep spell polymorphs the target into a penguin instead.[10]
- Glyph of Wild Endurance (Druid) (Minor Glyph) - Empowers a Minor Glyph to increase the duration of your [Mark of the Wild] and [Gift of the Wild] spells by 30 min.[11]
- Glyph of Natural Force (Druid) (Greater Glyph) - Empowers a Greater Glyph to avoid interruption caused by damage while casting your [Wrath] spells by 50%.[12]
Gathering Profession
As of the beta, Herbalism is the primary gathering profession for Inscription.[13]
Notes
- Glyphs can be sold at the Auction House.[14]
