There are technically enough points to learn SOME enhance to go with enchant. But at the end of the day, like everything else in this game, you need a dedicated character.

Most enchanters either leech their way to 90 or spend time as another build then reset their stats/skills after hitting the level required.

Do note that enchant is a very hard chain expert to skill up in, and there’s a need to skill up because every 2 ranks adds ~1% success chance.

Occultism, one of the main prerequisite for enchant is currently the slowest and most expensive skill to raise.

Even with +900% expert skill gain fragrance/clan bonuses etc… you gain around 70pts/30mins, and you spend ~30-40k.

Actually never mind, I found the answers on gkwiki, but I was wonder how an enchanter is supposed to gain exp if you can’t double log?
My laptop isn’t good enough to handle 2 clients at once which means I can’t leech off my main character, which leads me to one question.
Is there enough skill points at least for Enchanting and Enhancing or no?
If not, how am I supposed to be useful for dungeon runs?

Referring to enchant (crafting) or enhance (buffs)?

Thanks for the overview, I’ll be sure to take the same route.

Also, out of curiosity, Adelina focuses on enchanting right?
I would like to now what enchanters need to be good at it.

Prepatch, I went for a damage-centric build that abuses sharpshoot for damage against bosses:

Class 5 destructive magic (for magic rush)
Class 1 rush (for magic rush)
Class 5-5 control magic (for magic rush)
Class 4-5 shoot (for sharpshoot)
Class 1-0 gun knowledge (for sharpshoot)
Class 2-5 devil knowledge (for sharpshoot)
Class 3-0 curse (for curse)
Class 1-0 blessing (for curse)
Class 1-5 weapon knowledge

25k total. (Level 80 cap, 23k total require if you go for just 2-0 curse and drop weapon knowledge.)

Resulting chain expert:
4-0 magic rush
3-0 sharp shoot
3-3 curse
3-1 magic bullet

The class/ranks in magic bullet are just a byproduct as sharp shoot/curse/magic bullet shares quite a few prerequisite skills.

3-0 sharp shoot was done purely for the +20% damage toggle against the final bosses in Suginami Gold and I went curse over enhance because I have an alt casting the +50% damage buffs.

It’s much better to go just for only enhance + magic rush unless you are sure that you will always be in a party with someone that can cast enhance.

Post patch, I’m just running curse and magic rush for chain expert skills, but I’m still in the midst of testing things.
