Sorcerers and wands/scrolls (DnD 3.5)
Can sorcerers use wands/scrolls for spells that are not their spells known but on the Sor/Wiz list? Assuming other prerequisites met, etc.
I always assumed they couldn't, but reading through the SRD it seems that they can use any spell trigger or completion items for spells on the Sor/Wiz spell list. Even if they don't know them.
So which one is right? or is it something else entirely? Applies to bards as well, obviously.

Yes. There'd be little point to any spontaneous caster ever using them otherwise. The restriction is class list, not spells the character can already cast himself. Originally Posted by Haruspex_Pariah

Thanks for the quick replies. The use of scrolls/wands by spontaneous casters has always bothered me for some reason.

Why? Spont casters are already at a disadvantage to prepped casters in versatility. Originally Posted by Haruspex_Pariah

I really don't know. It must be an example of sudden logic failure by my brain. I guess I just conflated "spells known" with "class spell list". Originally Posted by Fiery Diamond

Re: Sorcerers and wands/scrolls (DnD 3.5)
I think it's because you sub-consciously hate sorcerers and don't want them to have nice things.
The only thing worse than an empty signature is one that has nothing at all to say. One that simply yammers on with little or no point; quietly, subtly draining away seconds of your life.
The worst are the ones that look like they have a point. Multiple paragraph monstrosities that you're sure will have some sort of satisfying conclusion. Some sort of goal, to show that your reading was not in vain.
It doesn't and it was.
