All the other spellcasting classes appear to have it on their spell list; why not Bloodragers? In terms of scrolls, without Read Magic it makes the DC to decipher them very difficult unless someone is willing/able to spend the gold/ability points required to increase her Spellcraft skill. Was this an oversight, or was it done intentionally to add balance to the game?


they don't get 0-lvl spells - same with paladin and ranger - seems a trend with 1-4 lvl spell classes

The reason why they don't get it as a 1st-Level spell is probably because there's no reason for them to know it. Their parent class was known to be illiterate in 3.5, and thematically it wouldn't make much sense for their rage-causing arcane powers to also make them better at reading magic.


You should check out the enlightened archetype for bloodrager, if you really want this.
