It's just as easy to macro carpentry as it is magery. It even most efficient to buy boards from the npcs, just like regs, son!

I didn't think that you could simply spam a level 8 scroll to gain magery here.

Since you can gain from scrolls, and can gain from failures on UOSA, it only makes sense that you can gain magery for a good while on scrolls alone (though it is impossible to GM this way I do believe.)

I have used lower level scrolls to gain magery (ebolt/flamestrike) while gaining resist, but have yet to just use the "spam 8th level scroll solely for magery gains," but will be happy to test it thoroughly for you when I get back to my pc this weekend since you don't play.

You should require the chance to succeed in order to gain. That's era accurate. Ergo, you should consume scrolls, and since they cost more than just regs, it should be more expensive and require the same time.
