Identifing Items

Is there some simple way to do this? I'm used to Icewind Dale and Baulders Gate, where all you needed was a character with a good Int and good Wis so that they had a high Lore rating. With these new rules it seems like identifying potions, scrolls and items are a pain in the ass. Is there some easy way to do this? Also, I haven't been able to find any sort of scroll case, gem bag, or potion container. Do these items exist? This game is really cool, but I'd hate to think that some of the simple things that make the game easier would be left out.

Hai,

you can identify unknow potions or scrolls or something else with a spell.
Every trader (like Otis in Nulb) can identify this items also. But, he will 100 Gold for the identification.

By the way, i hope my english is ok

)))))))

I'm with zFACTOR, Please tell me that my party can Identify a simple healing potion at some point and not need the help of a spell! The only hope I see is that all the potions of the same kind have the same bottle. So you can kind of Identfy it that way.

The simple Items or the one you use alot shoud be auto identifed
at some point in the game. If not some one should patch In the fix.

IIRC, crafting a wand of identify doesn't use up gold after initially making the wand itself. Also, one of the unofficial patches from the well-reknowned Circle of Eight has it so that the Read Magic spell works to Identify small items such as potions.
