Check
You can identify spells and magic effects. The DCs for Spellcraft checks relating to various tasks are summarized on the table above.
Epic Check
You can identify properties of a magic item. (See table.)
Identify Basic Property of Magic Item
This use of the skill requires one round of inspection, and functions exactly as if you had cast an identify spell on the item. You can’t attempt this on the same item more than once.
Identify All Properties of Magic Item
This requires one minute of inspection, and reveals all properties of a single magic item (including command words and charges remaining). You can’t attempt this on the same item more than once. If an item has different caster levels for different properties, use the highest caster level.
Quick Identification
You can identify a substance or potion in the field as a full-round action, without an alchemical lab or any cost. You can’t retry this check (or take 20); if you fail, you must identify the substance in an alchemical lab, as normal.
Action
Varies, as noted above.
Try Again
See above.
