-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 soulstone to transfer the skill to a gargoyle character (or use a race change token).

 Imbuing has certain limits, an important one is the '''500% maximum property intensity limit'''. This limitation along with the 'weighting' mechanism restricts the power of imbued jewelry to generally be less than a perfect max intensity 5 properties item found as loot.

 If the properties had all been at maximum strength (15, 8, 25, 15) the total weight used by just 4 properties would be well over 4, 4.4 in this case.

 Imbuing requires specific resources, some of which are first harvested (or "unraveled") from existing magic items. It also requires [[gem]]s; the greater the intensity selected, the more gems you will need. The unraveling attempt includes a chance to destroy the item and failing to garner any resources from it. Similar to [[Blacksmithy]] requiring a [[forge]], you must stand next to a [[Soul Forge]] to imbue or unravel items.
