In Nightingale there are numerous ways to enhance your character whether that be through better gear, Infusions, Charms, or Enchantments. Where most of the other enhancements offer you passive skills, enchantments offer you active skills; one could say magic. When you apply an enchantment to a weapon or tool, it’ll get that effect, allowing you to cast the applied enchantment. There are currently 18 enchantments in Nightingale that offer you the ability to heal, deal damage, summon, and much more. Find out below every enchantment in the game and where you can get them.
Enchantments allow you to cast spells when applied to your weapons.
