How to imbue items in Diablo 2

The action to imbue items in Diablo 2 becomes available fairly early in the game. During Act I, one of the six quests you're able to take on will grant you this mechanic as a reward.

Specifically, we're referring to Tools of the Trade, which is picked up from the blacksmith Charsi after you've completed The Forgotten Tower quest (or if you're at least level 8 and Deckard Cain is in the camp).

For this, you'll have to track down the Monastery Barracks location.

Once you've retrieved the Horadric Malus hammer from The Smith, take it back to Charsi to complete the mission. As a reward, she will gift you one free imbue.

Imbuing turns a normal item into a magical one (as long as they're not already magic, socketed, rare, unique, part of a set or jewelry). In addition, this is dependent to your current level - the higher the level you are, the more attributes will be added on the item after imbuing it.

All you have to do is talk to Charsi at any time and select the dialogue option to imbue an item - select the one you'll like to imbue and she will do it for you.

While the process is fairly simple, the biggest question mark is the perfect timing to do this, as it's a rare opportunity.
