Reveal the item that already exists.

A Scroll of Wisdom identifies an unidentified item. Identification reveals the item's hidden properties so they can be read; it does not reroll those properties or choose a better result at the moment the scroll is applied.

Use it when the revealed information can change your decision.

Identification lets you judge whether an item should be equipped, traded, kept for crafting, or discarded. The scroll is therefore an information tool: its value comes from turning an unknown item record into a readable one.

Before you use one

Identification reveals the existing result; it does not improve it. Do not describe an unidentified item as guaranteed valuable, and do not confuse learning the modifiers with crafting new ones.

High use frequency does not imply high unit value.

Wisdom Scrolls are used throughout ordinary item evaluation and can trade in large quantities. League abundance, convenience, and exchange minimums can matter more than rarity, so current volume and price should be read separately.
