For spells on items ([[Weapons]], [[Equipment]], [[Scrolls]]... etc.), the most recent class that was multiclassed into takes precedence in the '''Spellcasting Ability Modifier'''. As an example, a character with the level progression {{InfoBlob|<nowiki>Wizard 1, Wizard 2, Sorcerer 1, Wizard 3</nowiki>}} will use '''CHA''' for item spellcasting, because Sorcerer is the latest "new" class for the character. If the same character then takes {{InfoBlob|<nowiki>Cleric 1</nowiki>}}, [[Cleric]] would be the latest new class, and '''WIS''' will now be used for item spellcasting for this character. Finally, if the same character then levels up their {{InfoBlob|<nowiki>Sorcerer 2</nowiki>}}, they would still continue to use '''WIS''' for item spellcasting as no "new" class was added since Cleric. | For spells on items ([[Weapons]], [[Equipment]], [[Scrolls]]... etc.), the most recent class that was multiclassed into takes precedence in the '''Spellcasting Ability Modifier'''.

So, {{InfoBlob|<nowiki>Ranger 1, Barbarian 1, Rogue 1</nowiki>}} will use '''CHA''' instead of '''INT''' for item and illithid spellcasting. | ||
