'''Spell knowledge''' (also commonly referred to as '''self-knowledge''' or just '''SK''') grants the user inherent knowledge of a spell without training in [[Spell Research]] of any circle. The user will be able to{{boldmono| [[PREPARE]] }}and{{boldmono| [[CAST]]}}, or{{boldmono| [[INCANT]]}}, and even{{boldmono| [[EVOKE]] }} and/or{{boldmono| [[CHANNEL]] }}the spell, as applicable. Any form of casting the spell will use the caster's [[mana]]. Spell knowledge comes in the form of an [[#Enhancives|enhancive item]] that can either be worn (jewelry, clothing, armor) or wielded (weapons, armor), or a [[#Scrolls|spell scroll]] that has vibrant ink. [[#Eligible Spells|Eligible spells]] may be of any spell circle and usable by any [[profession]] regardless of that profession's native spell circles, unless there are specific restrictions built into the item by its creator.

Unlike casting from regular scrolls or using imbedded magical items, a spell cast using a spell knowledge item will receive the full benefit for all applicable Lore ranks. Additionally, defensive spells that are self-cast through spell knowledge are not subject to [[spell burst]], [[spell sever]] or [[Rift]] dispel.<includeonly>

==Spell Knowledge Item Policy==
Newly created, as of February 22, 2023, Spell Knowledge (SK) items will be permanently tied to the base spell that they are created as. If there are changes to that spell due to future development, the SK item will always match those changes. They will not be updated to use the old version of the spell via the Lost Arts spell circle or substituted for another spell.

==Enhancives==
'''Spell knowledge enhancives''' (SKEs) are items in which the spell knowledge is granted via an [[enhancive]] ability, and charges drain as the item is worn/wielded just like stat and skill enhancives. A SKE may have up to two spells on it, but no other enhancive abilities. They must also be charged via [[bounty point]]s or [[#SimuCoin Items|spell knowledge enhancive charging potion]]s.

While item upkeep is required for SKEs, unlike the older items, they provide the benefit of the spell(s) not counting towards [[spellburst]] if it is a defensive/worn utility spell.

Original spell knowledge items were released long before the [[enhancive]] system was created, and some of them are still in use.

===Spell Duration===
{{addmetext}} [The duration (if applicable) of a spell knowledge item is determined by...]

===Eligible Spells===
Most spell circles, level 20 or lower, are eligible for spell knowledge item creation. To view a list of spells allowed for use, see [[/List of eligible spells|the list of SK eligible spells]].

===Imbedding===
Users of spell knowledge items can use [[Magic Item Creation (420)]] to imbed the spell into appropriate imbeddable items, and [[cleric]]s can use [[Holy Receptacle (325)]], if the spell is able to be imbedded. When a spell knowledge enhancive item is used to{{boldmono| [[IMBED]]}}, it will drain a charge from an item.

===SimuCoin Items===
Short-term and long-term '''spell knowledge enhancive charging potions''' are available in the [[SimuCoin]] store as a '''[https://store.play.net/store/purchaseitem/147?gameCode=GS potent blue-green potion]''' and a '''[https://store.play.net/store/purchaseitem/148?gameCode=GS potent yellow-green potion]''', respectively. A SKE item will not drain any charges while under the effect of either of these potions.
