armor appraisal

Hi,
Maybe this is a silly idea, and if it seems unreasonable or difficult to implement it's okay, but has it been considered to have an ability or an armor blacksmithing skill requirement to examine armor and receive information on more exotic resistances, such as fire, acid, cold, or electricity?
Thank you,

Something like this is doable. But there wouldn't be much more use for it other than just armor. Now a complete skill that allows you to scry the magic affects of other things in the world as well might be a little more useful. Such as using loremastery to understand how this spiffy new material from the **** might affect the properties of your ***** if used to forge a ******. You get the idea.

That would be wonderful too, but I did not want to suggest something super complicated. It was only a suggestion to tie examining an armor's resistances to armor blacksmithing or maybe armor use, too. But a loremastery ability would be amazing yes please!
*hopeful* Maybe really super rare materials could even have less number related lore text if they are examined?
