Jewellery enchantment capacity

These are the base capacities of looted jewellery and the starting values for crafted jewellery. They do not use weapon or armour material multipliers.

Crafted jewellery adds the following bonuses to its base capacity. Metal and gem bonuses add together; for example, a Gold Ring made with a plain Ruby has 2,160 points. Some recipes require a gem, so their finished capacity will already include its bonus. See Smithing for recipes.

A Gemcutter adds another 10% of base capacity to gemmed jewellery. A Goldsmith's Silver pieces receive Gold's +10%. A gem used during crafting increases capacity; a socket gem added to finished equipment provides its own combat bonuses instead.

For weapons and armour, better materials increase item-maker capacity but do not increase Arcane Essence yield. Jewellery's crafting bonuses do count toward Essence yield.
