This magical scroll functions similarly to a spell scroll, except that it is activated by striking the unfurled scroll with a weapon, destroying the scroll. This can be done in place of an attack as part of the Attack action on the wielder's turn. Doing so casts the scroll's spell upon the weapon without requiring the ability to cast spells. The caster is the wielder who struck the scroll. The spellcasting ability for the spell is the ability score the caster used to make the weapon attack.
Weapon scrolls can only be made for spells that can target a weapon, such as magic weapon, holy weapon*, or the new flaring weapon spell. A weapon scroll is one rarity level higher than the equivalent spell scroll would be. For example, a 5th-level spell scroll is rare, but a 5th-level weapon scroll of the same spell is very rare.
Notes: Buff, Consumable
