Using rank 5 enchants despite not rank 5 enchanter
When I was a just starting out I got a rank 5 enchant (count) and used it on my vales shield and it succeeded.
I was a rank f enchanter or lower and no there was no one else there with me when I enchanted it.
After awhile I learned that you couldn't use rank 5 enchants unless you or someone else had enchanting to rank 5.
But, recently one of my friends (rank f enchanter) used a rank 5 enchant(monster) alone and destroyed their armor not knowing that it would.
Is it really possible, or are these events just hiccups?
Maybe there was something that I missed.

Any enchant that's above rank 6 will destroy the item unless you use an enchant protection potion on the item you're enchanting on
Count and Monster Enchants both can go on despite their ranks because of the enchant enable regardless of rank (meaning you don't have to bridge it from rank A to 9 to 8 to 7 and so on)
Hope that helps.
For future reference, Rank 1 Enchanters have the highest item burning rate and we can only lose 5% of durability for each attempt of enchanting failure.
Enchant items F ~ A may result in durability loss, items 9 ~ 7 will result in durability loss, and any items that are 5 are higher will destroy the item UPON FAILURE.
It's been a while since I've done this so I don't remember if it gives you the warning that your stuff could blow up. It really should.
Ah, I see this might be it. Because I know I got another "count" enchant and I couldn't use it and was giving me the "you need to be r5 enchanter" thing.
No matter what scroll it is, you should, as heavy advice, never try to use it without powder unless you're just messing around with it and don't care about the consequences. They will always prompt you with a warning should you try to use the scroll without powder.
One more thing; you have to have rank 5 enchant in order to use rank 5 enchant scrolls.
I must have been mistaken of the rank of the enchant then. I definitely remember blowing something up with a failed enchant because back then I didn't know what magic powders were. I definitely didn't have rank 5 Enchant but it let me try (and fail) anyway. I guess it must have been a rank 6?
Even if your enchant was a rank 6, my friend and I used rank 5 enchants without having rank 5 enchant skills. I'm a rank 1 enchanter as well and know the criteria and all that from the wiki and such. I knew already that there was a criteria that you had to be a rank 5 enchanter to use rank 5 enchants and above, so the events that happened to my friend and I really baffles me and intrigues me a lot.
For those who don't know, pages 6-10 are considered to be rank 5-1 "Enchant Scrolls" with 100% success rates.
Since this mechanic also works for normal Enchant Scrolls, it can also be used to YOLO a scroll if you can't get an r1 Enchanter on the scene in time. (May or may not have done this a few times before I got r1 Enchant kek)
Using an Enchant Scroll of Rank 5 or higher requires an Enchant Skill Rank of 5 or higher. That is unless you are just using it with out the skill... An Enchant Scroll will vanish upon success, with its effects transferred to the item. Upon failure, the scroll will lose Durability. An Enchant Scroll used without Magic Powder will vanish even if enchantment fails. Which the later might still be possible if you click use on the scroll perhaps. I've never tried to test this though.
