| A useful magic scroll which identifies the properties of any unknown object. |
Reading a scroll of identify allows the player to identify one item currently in their inventory.
Strategy
- Scrolls of identify become worthless once you identify all potions and scrolls; you can use the \ key to see all items you (don't) already know.
- If you have already identified a scroll of identify, You can press ESC to cancel the scroll effect without using it.
History
- Prior to 0.27, scrolls of identify were more necessary, as weapons, armour, and jewellery did not identify when you stepped on their tile.
- Prior to 0.21, wands did not automatically reveal their charge when picked up.
- Prior to 0.15, scrolls of identify would sometimes allow you to identify up to three items in your inventory.
