I am probably missing something simple here, but I have 2 items that my "artifacts"-trained character still cannot identify. My Priest has the identify spell but I am not sure how to use it.

When I cast it, it doesn't ask what I want to identify. I put the items in the Priests inventory and then cast (thinking maybe it identifies any unidentified items in the inventory). Still no luck. I am casting the spell at the level 6-dice power. What is the trick to operate this spell properly?

Go to priest inventory
All unidentified items have a ?
Select IDENTIFY .. at least L3
Click on item of interest ... L3 usually enough (unless very powerful item)

Also useful on "Bags" ..like skull bones .. where Identify tells you what it actually does

Cheers

Thanks so much! As I suspected, I was just casting the spell incorrectly. I was trying to cast it from the main interface instead of from the inventory screen. I now suffer -4 INT :)
