How to identify items? - Page 2

sauranan · 01-23-2002, 03:38 PM

Thanks again but I have tried it using all members of my party -fighter, thief, cleric. Same results. Does the character using the scrolls have to be a mage?

Tormentor · 01-23-2002, 03:42 PM

yes...
well then there's no other option but going to a temple for you, or find yourself a mage [img]smile.gif[/img]

Thanks to everyone.

I have posted on a number of gaming forums and have never received such prompt responses. This is great.

There are plenty of other good NPCs who CAN use spells or scrolls of identify, like Nalia, Imoen, Aerie, or Jan.

I noticed that Edwin can use those glasses of identifying. Isn't that a violation of the AD&D rules? I didn't think that mages could use ANY magic items which used magic from their opposition schools.

Ahhh, that's where you are mistaken, it DOES have to be a mage, but conjurers CAN use divination spells, up to level 3.

Just get those Glasses of Identification. IIRC, any character can use them, even the most rock-headed Berserker or Barbarian.

Wizard Slayers cannot use the Glasses of Identification. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
