Sorcerer Enchantment Overview

Introduction

Enchantment is a mechanic unique to the Sorcerer, it allows you to select a skill to add an additional effect to it. Enchanted skills can trigger regardless if they are equipped to your skill bar, such as Ice Blades (Summon an Ice Blade for every 20-second cooldown used). This system adds a variety of options to your skill builds; however, it is important to note that you may only select 2 skills to be enchanted. The first slot unlocks at level 15 then the second at level 30

TLDR/Summary

There are 2 Enchantment skill slots available; the first slot is unlocked after completing the quest “Legend of the Magi” then at level 30.
