Fe and unknown scrolls

I am Fe of Nemelex and I have this:

M - a scroll labeled ROCLIRIOLE {tried on thick zirconium amulet}

Scroll of ID is already known so it is either recharge or enchant armour and Fe cannot use either AFAIK.
So there are 2 questions:
1) why does not it autoid after ID has been identified?
2) Is it a good idea to spend ID scroll on it to get more piety from Nemelex? Or does Nemelex use real value for the scroll even if it isn't unidentified?

Also I have
q - 2 scrolls labeled BIYSI BRE ROAR {tried}
w - 2 scrolls labeled NUSSAS VIK NUN {tried}
K - a scroll labeled VOANLELIJO {tried}
I guess some of them are curse weapon, curse armour, brand weapon. Why aren't they identified? Is ID scroll the only way to id them?

Here are un-IDed scrolls:
acquirement, brand weapon, curse armour, curse jewelry, curse weapon, enchant armour, holy word, recharge.

Re: Fe and unknown scrolls

There is the remote chance that a treasure trove will require X quantity of scrolls, which could potentially be Enchant Armour or Recharging.

Granted, it's probably a trove filled with armour and weapons.

Thank you, I forgot about the trove. I will not sacrifice the items then. Though perhaps trove can't request useless items.
Trove is guaranteed to have items which can be used by character (got the answer from dev in some bug report recently).

Re: Fe and unknown scrolls

Troves cannot request enchant armour or recharging directly. They can request enchanted armour or a charged wand, of course.

Re: Fe and unknown scrolls

Oops, it looks like I need to ID wands before sacrificing them...

Re: Fe and unknown scrolls

I think brand weapon at least will ID. Vorpalise used to, with your claws making a snicksnack sound. You might even be able to vorpalise something since it works on your inventory and self-IDs right away.
