I'm curious about a few things:
Question 1:
An spell cast out of an item is an ACTION but is it counted as a spell, or an item activation action?
For example,
Item Activation: If I have a staff of the magi, can I use Firewall, using charges out of the staff and then cast Misty Step using my usual spell slots?
Or is it CASTING a spell? In which case, I would not be able to Misty Step because that is two spells in one action.
A ring of spell storing might be another example.
Question 2:
Can you counterspell spell cast out of an item? Can you counterspell:
a) Web spell that is activated by a wand?
b) Petrification cast out of The Ring of Winter?
c) Protection from Evil (cast at will) or a Fireball cast from a Staff of the Magi?
d) Invisibility activated by a ring of invisibility?
e) healing derived from a potion of healing
