How about a set of skills that allow certain classes to craft these items? I'm thinking something similar to the poison crafting, but with mystical components. Low-rent spells for low-rent components, right? A failed attempt could cause the destruction of the components, random spells, failed spells, or all sorts of maledictions and other "accidents".

Thanks for the playing Santa every year - it's one of the greater things about this game.

I'm curious what you're really after here. I doubt it's making for making invis potions/wand/staves. There is a cabal power that does this already (lightforge), and I'm not convinced more crafting is what folks really want.

I know during earlier posts about this, I had floated the idea of being able to craft A/B/S items, but I think there would be a place for crafting items for low-end spells.

It could definitely be a way for mages to make a little side cash.

Either way, thanks for entertaining the idea!
