I don't mean just wording differences... I mean the reality. The first version is a hack. The second is really what would happen.

if it was my game, i would make the scrolls impossible to use in combat...
with a really long duration - but a really high cost.

potions are simple to drink, with quick - short acting effects.
considerably cheaper than a scroll with like effects.


/2 cents
random suggestion, just to give an idea:

scroll - effect until you die / rest in a bed (over powered - just brainstorming)
potion - "X" amount of turns

"Embrace the Shadow"

If it lasts until you die, you could use every scroll at once. Maybe have a scroll limit, like 3 or 4 at once, and you could have a skill "scroll mastery" that lets you use more at one time.
Take a stop by my game thread for some forum fun!!!

... to a minimum of 1.

Or else you could equip QSD and JoF, cast this scroll and attack any foe you like, since your next round lasts endless.

QSD is one of the best weapons in the game, with up to six strikes per round, once you put some levels into AD
