That's not the way I'm reading it, Rolep. Any character that can use a spell - ANY spell - can use wands. Because the only restriction on the wand page is that wands use a spell trigger (a word), and anyone with A SPELL on their spell list can use a spell trigger even if they cannot currently use any spells. They have the potential, in other words.

Taw, what's your take on it?

Well, obviously I can't take the feat just yet. Gotta be level 5 first

I'm trying to plan ahead, and wands seem like a decent way to go. Scrolls have to be read by someone of the same spell type (divine/arcane), must be able to know or learn the spell themselves, and must have the required ability scores. Plus they're one-use-only and can go horribly wrong.
Wands on the other hand do not have those restrictions or downsides and get 50 charges each. The only limitation is that the user must have a spell list, which covers everyone except Beolas and that monk who's name I can't remember.

Rolep, Barthus is down. You might want to find someone else to Rejuvenate

We were going to go spend a week at my Grandma's, which is fine, except last time we were here she had really, really, slow internet (not quite dial-up, but only minusculy better). We get here and suddenly I discover that she has upgraded and now has a rather fast 500 kb/s connection, a couple of times faster than my parents house (which is where I was spending the earlier part of the summer). Quite a nice surprise!

Now watch as you're forbidden from using the computer while you're there :v

Best of luck Vector, hope you land that tutoring job.

I don't like optimizing. It's kinda... meh for me. Sorry everyone. My choices won't be the right ones. If they are the right ones, they're for different reasons.

I personally don't like Power Gaming. It makes me feel awful if I'm the strongest of the party cause everyone needs a thing to do. If I do everything better I feel like I'm being a total prick. I had hoped my inexperience would help me not make overpowered choices but...

I actually just took Cleric because I wanted to be a party support. Apparently I'm capable of being the party everything... Whoops.

It's all good. I dislike Power Gaming as well, but in my opinion it's only really Power Gaming if you're doing stuff like deliberately exploiting game mechanics, bending rules, or looking up powerful pre-made builds online. If you just do stuff that fits your character, even if it is considered "sub-optimal", you're fine.

IT IS VERY VIGOROUS BEING A FEMALE LESBIAN WITH A MARSUPIAL POUCH.

That was... an INTERESTING conversation.
