Sacrifice

[Ryastar]

In my last game (a mage) there was no res scroll anywhere. I had to rely on gift + inquisitors and timeback.

Metathron: that is WEIRD! In my experience, gift is one of the more common spells. I had at least 20 scrolls of it in my warrior game, which was nice as that saved me a lot of mana.

As for sacrifice, I've usually found it in the freedom islands, but not always. You have to actually finish a game through to the end, searching everywhere possible and not find something before you can declare it to be completely absent.
