Hello!

I am at the moment unable to verify directly but I wonder if I remember well.

Is it true that both in Baldur's Gate and Baldur's Gate 2 a magic user (both divine and arcane) can use wands or read scrolls with spells that are of much higher level than he/she could actually master ?

In short, is it true that I can, example, read and start the effects of a Lightning Bolt scroll having a second level Mage read it ?

If this is true, I think it would be definitely something that I'd like to see corrected. I don't know what the AD&D 2ed. says about this but I'd think it shouldn't be at all allowed.

If instead I am just misremembering then sorry for the stupid question! cool.gif

one point I'd like to make tho I do see your point is I can build a model ship but I do need the instruction book, now If I memorized that instruction book...
I guess is what I am saying is that you should have the abaility to read the scroll and you should have to read it at least once even to memorize it. then IF you fail to read it correctly then you'll have to find another one
Hmmm maybe a new thing to add to wtp he he
