According to the wiki it is more complicated than that: "Spells learned from taking levels in a class will use that class' spellcasting ability modifier. Spells from other sources use the spellcasting ability of the class the creature most recently took a first level in."

Spellcasting ability can be either intelligence, wisdom or charisma. So, if I understand correctly, if you are a level 10 wizard and you then take a warlock level, your spellcasting ability for a scroll based attack roll will be charisma.

That's way too complicated for me. I'm glad I chose fighter. You just hit stuff. Sometimes you hit stuff in a slightly different way.

The Fighter does not function that differently from other classes. You don't just hit stuff, you also need high attribute numbers according to the weapon you are using. Trying to use a crossbow with your high Strength/low Dexterity/heavy armor Fighter for example is not a good idea.
