Help for crafting (common skill group)

The crafting skills cover creating, repairing, and enhancing items.
Each skill is learned independently. The more crafting skills you know,
the more effective your enchantments become.

Skills:

  Basic Crafting       Create simple items from gathered materials.
  Intermediate Crafting Create more complex items with better quality.
  Advanced Crafting    Create high-quality items with special properties.
  Masterwork           Create exceptional items of the highest quality.
  Repair               Restore damaged items to working condition.
  Salvage              Break down items into raw materials.
  Efficient Crafting   Passive: use fewer materials when crafting.

Enchantment:

  The enchant and scribe commands scale with how many crafting
  skills you have learned:

  Warning: No item can be enchanted more than once.

  Check the odds before enchanting: enchant chance 

  Enchant bonuses are calculated as:
    Damage Bonus:  SquareRoot(Spirit)
    Defense Bonus: SquareRoot(Spirit)
    Stat Bonuses:  SquareRoot(Spirit) (more bonuses with more crafting skills)

  Each crafting skill learned reduces destruction chance by 10%.
  Enchanted items have a 25% chance of becoming cursed.
