After having determined exactly which spells can be found upon common scrolls, I have compiled this list of useful spells, their durations, and abilities. This information is intended to act as a guide in locating spells for potential scroll infusion projects depending upon your level of skill and interest. For specific information as to the actual working of the spell, Scroll Infusion (714), see Mekthros's published works.

The spells below have been sorted into three main groups. The first group is the Beginner's Collection, which consists of spells that are somewhat easy to find, charge, and utilize for an extended duration with a relatively low amount of Arcane Symbol Ranks. The second group is the Expert's Collection; these being spells that are more difficult to find and charge, and/or have a duration which requires many ranks of Arcane Symbols to use efficiently. The listed spells for the first two groups are further separated into three subgroups: Defense oriented, Utility oriented, and Bolt AS oriented. At the bottom of the guide, one will find the third and final group, which is comprised of a list of spells, levels 1 - 19, that cannot be found upon normally occuring scrolls.

One should note that spells from the Minor Elemental, Sorcerer, and Minor Spiritual circle are not listed on this guide, as its purpose is to aid the infusing sorcerer in locating scrolls most useful in serving their needs. Neither the Minor Elemental nor the Minor Spiritual circles suffer from any spell exemptions on commonly found scrolls from levels 1 - 19.




Arcane Symbols (INVOKE) duration formula:

Base duration + (Arcane Symbols ranks * (half normal duration for spell ranks known))
