Strategy
Like its weapon-enchanting cousin, this spell is not generally that useful. Most non-casting roles can expect to have to cast the spell dozens of time before even getting one point of enchantment, consuming a large amount of food and turns in the process.
On top of the fact that you would need to remove each time all armour except the one you are trying to enchant. Even if you don't target a specific piece of armour, you will still be forced to remove anything that is already at it's safe maximum, or risk see it evaporate.
Wizards might use it to save a few charges off their magic markers, although by the time they can cast the spell they are likely to have a good deal of their ascension kit together and enchanted already. Since the spell cannot give the effect of a blessed scroll, an actual scroll will generally be required for the final enchantment anyway.
However, this spell, is probably useful for players attempting conducts.
