Is there really any point to Loremaster at all? It consumes magnifying glasses anyway, and identifying at merchants is cheap.
Yeah, sure, at the end of the day, Loremaster saves you money. But most all other Abilities (Dangit I keep wanting to write "Skills", why did Larian mess those two up?) actually *do* something.
Loremaster is cool 'n' all, but it mostly feels like dead weight.
