Identify won't be such a time sink, and a simulacrum could be cast in combat.  A pity it has such a substantial xp component.  Are there any other spells that take a long time to cast that would be much more useful if cast quickly?  There's legend lore, I suppose, but a vision is much more efficient.  Although I suppose the xp could add up.</blockquote>
