Appraise

Appraise is a perception skill and a friend of all traders, merchants, and most crafters. Without this skill, you will be unable to independently assess the value of harvested and crafted goods that you have produced, purchased, found, or otherwise acquired. By typing appraise <item>, you will see an estimated value of the item. The estimate itself is not exact until this skill is mastered, and is particularly variable at low skill levels. At 50 in this skill, you won't miss by more than 50% in either direction however. Consider this the antique-road-show skill.

In order to prevent statisticians from estimating true values of items no matter their skill by spamming a huge population of appraises and then taking the mean, there is a five minute long cooldown per use on the same item. Coins cannot be appraised, so as not to trivialize training the skill.

Training appraise requires you to find more and more valuable things to consider the worth of.

Appraise is governed by intelligence (primary) and wisdom (secondary).
