 [[Wizard]]s might use it to save a few charges off their magic markers, although by the time they can cast the spell they are likely to have a good deal of their ascension kit together and enchanted already. Since the spell cannot give the effect of a blessed scroll, an actual scroll will generally be required for the final enchantment anyway.

-Like the [[spellbook of enchant weapon]], this spell is generally not that useful for its level: most non-casting roles can expect to have to cast the spell dozens of time before even getting one point of enchantment, inducing a large amount of [[spell hunger]] and using up several turns in the process. The spell also enchants armor at random as with the scroll, requiring you to remove all other armor beyond the target item before each cast - at minimum, you will also have to remove any armor that is already at its safe maximum or risk having it evaporate.
