Method 1
0 - 40 - Purchase from one of the Gargoyle Artificers standing around the public Soul-forge in Ter Mur
40 - 50 - Craft plain Leather Caps and imbue with Reflect Physical Damage (citrine and magical residue) , starting at 8% and raising to 11%
50 - 70- Craft Butcher Knives or Daggers and imbue with Hit Dispel
70 - 120- Craft Exceptional Heavy Platemail Jingasas and imbue with Reflect Physical Damage
Method 2
The most cost/gem efficient means of gaining this skill is to imbue multiple effects at lower levels. Each item you imbue can be imbued 10 times before you are less able to gain from it. Therefore, for 40-50 range skill you might imbue a leather cap with 4% cold resist (1 magical residue/1 sapphire) and then 1% Reflect Physical Damage (1 magical residue/1 citrine). Then you "Reimbue Last" on the Reflect Physical Damage 9 times before moving on to the next item. You can adjust this ratio of initial imbue to repeated imbue as you gain in skill, keeping the success rate (displayed in bottom right hand of the imbuing gump) around 50% for best gains. So after 20-40 gains, you will need to change your method to 5% cold resist and 1% Reflect Physical Damage in order to keep your success rate down.
Also, it should be easier to train this on a human, due to the imbuing success bonus that gargoyles get, which means that you must imbue higher intensity properties to maintain the 50% success rate. After training to 120, then use a soul stone to transfer the skill to a gargoyle character (or use a race change token).
UOAssist Macro
Here are the steps to create a one key macroing for training.
Start recording a macro.
Activate imbuing skill.
Press "imbue item" button.
Target the item you want to imbue.
Select property you wish to imbue.
Select the intensity to imbue (if necessary).
Press "yes" to imbue the item.
Whether or not the imbuing was successful, press "Unravel item".
Target the exact same item that you had just attempted to imbue.
Stop recording the macro.
Select the 2 target lines in your macro, right click and select "target item type".
Warning: UOAssist will not differentiate between items you intend to imbue from ones you do not. Do not have any items you intend to keep in your backpack or they could mistakenly be unraveled.
Note: The imbuing menu must be closed when you activate the macro.
Note 2: It is not recommended you use this macro when imbuing magic items as they will be unraveled regardless of whether you succeed or fail you imbuing attempt.
