Disenchant Amulet of Zenithar[edit]

Any reason why I can't disenchant Amulet of Zenitar? (PS3) — Unsigned comment by 124.150.86.226 (talk) at 06:36 on 28 November 2011

None of the Amulets of the Divines can be disenchanted. --72.182.124.196 14:46, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

How are the seconds counted?[edit]

If I use a Potion of Fortify Barter, I assume that I use the potion, then open the transaction dialogue with a merchant. Is the "clock" stopped while, for example, I am being asked to specify how many items I want to sell, etc. Is it even possible that the clock stops for the entire period that I have the buying/selling dialogue box open? 175.98.82.21 15:51, 15 December 2011 (UTC)

I'm not 100% certain, but I'm pretty sure the clock keeps running, but the effect won't wear off until you exit the dialog. If I drink a potion and speak to a merchant, the price of a given item stays the same no matter how long the window is open, but if I exit and re-enter the conversation, the prices are back up to "normal" levels. 209.66.120.3 21:47, 15 December 2011 (UTC)
I believe the clock keeps running while you are in the dialogue screen and does stop once you open the trade/inventory screen. That would certainly mesh with the behaviors of the npcs (who keep moving when dialogue screen is open but stop once you open the trade/inventory screen) and what happens when you open up your personal inventory/magic/skills/etc screen with any timers running.--Ewolfg1 (talk) 22:11, 2 September 2014 (GMT)

Fortify Barter 100%=free items??[edit]

Is this true? Broxigar 10:07, 19 December 2011 (UTC)

No. Using degenerate exploits, I made a Necklace of Fortify Barter over 5,000,000%, and there is clearly a cap on the price reduction.
I can't verify with 100% certainty, but it appears to roughly max out at buying items for half what they would normally go for.
I can verify that this allows you to sell items for their full, listed value, so you can buy an item and resell it for essentially the same price. That's as good as it gets. 209.66.120.3 20:35, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
I can confirm it. I created an enchantment that fortifies barter by over 1,000,000%. However, when I wear it, prices are only about half what they are if I'm not wearing it. Therefore, it appears to max out at 50%, which is SUPER LAME!! That's way too low of a cap IMHO, but it is what it is. I'll update the article to reflect this now that it's been confirmed. 216.243.60.171 22:46, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
I'm pretty sure you've hit negative numbers. My necklace only has about 10,000% improvement, and it lets me sell at 100% and buy at 105%. Very high numbers make the enchantment loop around and decrease your effective skill. The Silencer speaksTalk 22:56, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
