Required UMD to cast 6th tier scroll

Unread post by Eden »

How many UMD do I exactly need to be able to cast a 6-tier clerical spell from a scroll?
Thank you

You need to beat the DC of 31. So, 30 points in UMD should be enough to cast it without error.

There are two checks, one to be able to read the scroll and then a second check to successfully cast the spell.

To be able to read a lvl 6 scroll you need 23 UMD (otherwise it appears reddened).

And then to cast a spell you must a make a 25 + spell level DC, 31 for your level 6 spell.

All right, I'll give up with the idea of achieving critical immunity with a fighter.
Thank you!

Or just for once don't dump CHA (!), take able learner, a few levels of rogue/bard/warlock? and crossclass the hell outta UMD. Your AB might take a minor hit but each has benefits you can easily use with a fighter build.
