[QUOTE="Belares, post: 176706, member: 2782"] I will say that I disagree with the time to scribe a scroll until higher level spells. If I can intrisically(sic) cast a spell I should know the wording, components, and somatics that should be the easy part. The actual scribing should be comparable to the power of the spell(hence the 1 day per 1000gp cost). What I am saying is that lower level spells should not take a full day of scribing if you have everything ready and available. As you get to the more powerful spells then the rule should apply. What I am doing in my campaign (and we have agreed to do in the campaign that I am playing) is make it easier to scribe more than 1 per day, but the cost still is the same no matter what level. I think maybe we said as many 1st and 2nd level that you can memorize and 3rd level as many as you can make to 1000gp. I think as you get into 4th and above then you should use the 1000gp per day. I know that most people will disagree, but these peopel don't play scroll scribers. The money to scribe the scrolls are the hard part and then later on the time is a huge factor too. The scribing of spells into your spellbook is more time consuming and expensive enough. [/QUOTE]
