A Scroll of Wisdom is a common currency item that can be used to identify a magic, rare, or unique item. They can also be used to identify a magic, rare, or unique strongbox.
Obtaining
Like most currency items, Scrolls of Wisdom can be dropped by slain monsters, chests, and destructible containers (barrels, crates, pots, urns). Scrolls of Wisdom may also be obtained by stacking five Scroll Fragments or by selling other currency items, such as Portal Scrolls (1 Scroll of Wisdom each), Orbs of Transmutation (4 each), Orbs of Alteration (4 each), Armourer's Scraps (2 each), and Blacksmith's Whetstones (4 each). One Scroll of Wisdom sells to Vendors and Masters for one Scroll Fragment.
Spending
It is often suggested for players to keep a stack of Scrolls of Wisdom in their inventory in order to identify items or strongboxes without needing to return to town first.
Given that one has enough Scrolls of Wisdom, identifying a rare item before selling it to a vendor is generally considered worthwhile.
For characters with a large amount of increased item rarity or who focus on killing bosses, it may be possible that the rate at which items drop that the player wishes to identify may exceed the rate at which Scrolls of Wisdom drop.
Vendors sell normal low-level Armour, Shields, and Weapons for 1 Scroll of Wisdom each, where requirements are no greater than Level 6. Nessa, Yeena, and Clarissa sell low-level magic Wands and normal Belts for 2 Scrolls each, and normal Flasks, Rings, and Portal Scrolls for 3 Scrolls each. Forsaken masters also sell magic and rare items whose cost includes Scrolls of Wisdom.
