Pillars of Eternity eGuide Items

Scrolls

Scrolls are also single-use items and can be carried in stacks. Their effects are always used for affecting an area or an individual target other than the caster. Scrolls do not restrict their usage to characters of a given class. Though scroll effects may seem similar to many traditional spells, they do not duplicate them exactly. Generally speaking, scrolls are both very powerful and very expensive.

Lore influences the effects of scrolls by directly influencing the following aspects of the scroll’s abilities: Damage Done, Healing Done, and Duration. Each point of Lore gives a 15% bonus to all three. This is in addition to the bonuses added by the user’s own stats.
