[QUOTE="demon_jr, post: 416984, member: 3480"] good insights everyone :D however, my main concern is why wouldn't i want to take advantage of having wands made with 50 charges, even though it duplicates the only 2 1st level spells i would know as a sorcerer? i understand at higher levels it wouldn't be cost-effective or practical, but at lower levels, for 1st level spells, i think it is a fairly good deal. as a 1st level sorcerer, i would be sorely tempted to have my friend make a wand that can cast one of my spells 50 times in comparison to the 3 times a day i could cast it. plus, at high levels, it would be fairly cheap to make a first level wand. but then, do i really want to do that and make my character not cast any spells himself and resort to using wands? if i was a wizard, this wouldn't be so much of a dilemma for me, since i have a wider spell selection than the sorcerer. on another note, our party has discovered the usefulness of creating 1st level wands of cure light. with 50 charges of 1d8+1 healing, it is very useful. it takes only one day to create, minimal xp, and is much more cost-effective than a potion of cure light. in regards to scrolls and spell-trigger (i'm not sure if this is what i mean) items, i forget, do you need to be able to CAST the spell or can the spell just be on your spell list? i was planning to buy a scroll of teleport with 1 level of sorcerer. would my character be able to use it?
