- 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, knock back, 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, paper, and other reagents or some other item which has not yet been revealed). [1]
Inscribing abilities for other characters will involve the creation of Inscription Scrolls which can be traded, bought, or sold at the auction house in the same manner as other items. [2]
Those who don't purchase the expansion will be able to use items created by an inscriber, but only those players who purchase Wrath of the Lich King will be able to learn Inscription as a profession.
Official examples
[Backstab] could be enhanced to crit more often.
[Shadow Bolt] could be enhanced to do additional damage.
[Frost Nova] could have larger range or longer duration.- [Fireball] could be enhanced to also cause a knockback effect. (This was an off-the-cuff example given by one of the panelists that, while cool, is not likely to happen.) [3]
Trainers
It is expected that the Inscription profession trainer will be found in Dalaran-the new neutral city in Northrend. They may also be found in the Alliance and Horde cities in Northrend, though there has been no official statement about that as of yet.
