Choosing Which Scrolls to Keep Using Tooltip Descriptions

Compare Before You Commit

The main benefit of this addon is that you can evaluate a scroll's role without casting it. Hover each scroll and read the effect line: offensive spells describe their damage type and whether they hit a single target or an area, while utility spells describe movement, healing, or summoning behavior. This lets you decide what fits your build before spending mana or inventory space.

A Simple Sorting Routine

1. Empty a chest and hover every scroll you own.

2. Group them mentally by role: direct damage, area damage, mobility, defense, summoning, utility.

3. Keep the scrolls that match your school focus and playstyle; set aside duplicates and off-build scrolls for trading or storage.

4. For scrolls you are unsure about, note the description and test only those in a safe area.

Build-Fit Tips

If you run a melee build, favor scrolls whose descriptions mention close-range or self-buff effects. Casters usually want the area and ranged entries. Support players should look for descriptions mentioning allies or healing. Because the tooltip states the effect plainly, you can match scrolls to your existing spellbook without guesswork. Remember the description tells you what the spell does, not its exact scaling — for precise numbers, check the spell's own entry in the Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks spell list.
