The Tavern

Wielding a Staff of Air is a bad reason to train air magic, but it's still a valid reason and it might not be as bad as memorizing a spell you won't be able to cast for a long time and train it. I'd like the option to be able to train (spellschool) for the staff evocation alone (and similarly Necromancy for Pain Weapons).

I have a feeling Crawl will eventually lift all restrictions to training trainable skills. Probably not tomorrow.

This would be nice.

I opened a bug about this several months ago, and the decision was not to allow this.
