Question 1 Can we take the 'Activate Blindly' from UMD to cast a scroll? http://paizo.com/pathfinderRPG/prd/skills/useMagicDevice.html#use-magic-device |

It' a gray area (? ), however, as mentioned here http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2khcf?Use-Magic-Device-and-scrolls my opinion is heavy to the "you can't" side. a person there said something that fits my opinion nicely. a specific rules overrides general rules. a specific use of skills overrides general use of the skill. |

By RAW, one of the interpretation is it should be able to be done, since the paragraph itself mentioned implicitly that you can cast a scroll using this method. A solid decision must be done to prevent debate. Edited by Innocent, May 29 2015, 06:10 PM.

I still think to disallow it, since the mishap is rules that i personally won't be using. so yeah, in my opinion, you still can't activate a scroll blindly. same as activating wands blindly. Of course, it would be a different case if you actually, really doesn't know doesn't have an idea of what is in the scroll, or in the wand or anything. |
