Obviously a newbie question but I have 5 scrolls of identity and cannot identify any item. Is there a level restriction on identifying certain objects?

What are the actions I must take to identify an item?

Sorry to be so stupid but I do appreciate the assistance.

Thanks

To identify something just right-click on the item, so you get the description. On the bottom of the description-screen should be a button labeled 'identify'. Click it and you get the choice to use a spell (if you have one memorised) or a scroll.

EDIT: Oh, and BTW Welcome to Ironworks

right click on the item you need to identify, click on identify, and then choose 'scroll' if you want to identify by scroll, or 'spell' if you have an identify spell remembered.... you can also go to temples and let them identify the item for you

There are also glasses that cast Identify three times a day, for sale on the second floor of the house where that Shadow Thief stays who will accept 15,000 gold pieces from you. It's well worth it, IMO, since it leaves a mage free to concentrate level 1 spells on multiple Magic Missiles--one of the best things any spellbook can contain.

Thanks for the amazingingly fast response....but my problem is that even with 5 scrolls stacked in my inventory both"scroll" and "spell" option are grayed out (unusable) when I right click on the item.

Any ideas?

The problem is probably because the person you are using is a mage and of the opposite school to whatever school Identify is part of. I know because Edwin can't use scrolls I believe.

If that isn't your problem then you should check out Baldurdash.

That's probably it - Conjurers can't cast spells from the school of Divination, which includes Identify.

Edwin can use scrolls, but you're still right: he can't use scrolls of the opposite school to his specialization.
