    \$\begingroup\$ +1, good answer. I'm still not convinced though. It is strange to me that the feature would specify that it allows you to ignore level requirement when, as far as I can find, the only two things that can possibly be seen as a level requirement with regards to the attunement and use of magic items are: spell level requirement for casting from scrolls without needing to make an ability check, and the holy avenger item getting its aura expanded to 30 ft at level 17. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Feb 13, 2020 at 1:51
  • \$\begingroup\$ The more I read into this, the more I am coming along to your side of the reading. I get that a magic item savant would be able to use ANY magic scroll (ignore class), but the ignore level aspect would only relate to the DC. I cannot think of (or research) anything that WOULD fit the wording of being able to ignore level requirements. The wording is too specific to not have a singular use, which makes me think scrolls ARE that use. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Feb 13, 2020 at 2:42
  • \$\begingroup\$ That's exactly it, as I said, there are only two possible 'level restrictions' I can find. Those being spell scroll requirements for casting without requiring an ability check, and holy avenger's aura extending from 10 ft to 30 ft at level 17. Why have such a specific reading if it only applies to a single item? Also, I feel like it doesn't break things that they can use higher level scrolls. They are already 14 and are already a half caster (focused on items) anyway. Heck, the artillerist is pretty much a full caster except that he lacks spell slots. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Feb 13, 2020 at 2:43

    \$\begingroup\$ Also notably the holy avenger's case is pretty much the same scenario as the spell scrolls, it isn't technically a level requirement to use the item, it is a level requirement related to the use of the item to get its full benefits. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Feb 13, 2020 at 2:49
  • \$\begingroup\$ Level 14 you can make a Ring of Protection every day after you catch some ZZZzzzs. I feel as if you should be able to do a better job than a ranger when it comes to casting from a scroll. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Feb 13, 2020 at 2:52
