I've been mulling over introducing spell scroll creation to my players. They are only 4th level, so the added resources would let the wizard be more active in encounters and the paladin broaden his actions besides smiting and healing (with spell slots).
What's holding me back is I don't want to imbalance the game. On one hand, the suggestions in the DMG and Xanathar's have 1st level spells as cheap and simple as a healing potion. But I think 4th level paladins only have 3 (and wizards 4) first level spell slots for a reason.
So the DMG mentions requiring a formula or ritual for magic item creation. For spell scrolls; a formula for each individual spell seems too restrictive. But a formula for all spells or all spells by spell level seem a bit permissive.
Thoughts?
