Can you cast faster with Scroll Thaumaturgy for Thaumaturgy


Rules Discussion


So I had a player use took this feat. he started combat with a "spell scroll enlarge" in his hand, Claimed he could cast it with 1 action, then could take another scroll out with an interact action, then cast a "spell scroll enlarge" with 1 action again.

I would like to know if these is even possible because the spell is normally 2 actions. also

I think he is claiming "Scroll Thaumaturgy" allows him to do this, that's why it's in the title. also here is the text for the feat so you don't have to look it up

"Your multidisciplinary study of magic means you know how to activate the magic in scrolls with ease. You can activate scrolls of any magical tradition, using your thaumaturge class DC for the scroll's DC, rather than a particular spell DC. If a spell is on the spell list for multiple traditions, you choose which tradition to use at the time you activate the scroll. You can draw and activate scrolls with the same hand holding an implement, much like you can for esoterica."

If possible could you also clear up what this means in the feat? Does it mean he doesn't need to put away an implement to use a scroll?

"You can draw and activate scrolls with the same hand holding an implement, much like you can for esoterica"


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Spells cast from scrolls use their normal amount of actions. Scroll thaumaturgy does just 2 things, it allows you to cast scrolls, and allows you to draw, hold, and cast them in your implement occupied hands. Basically, the feat does exactly what it says it does.
