User Commentary
Scholar is a good skill for a supply hero. He or she will teach other ones all spells available, repeating the operation when the new level of Mage Guild gets built (make sure that heroes have Wisdom at appropriate level). One hero with that skill is sufficient, as both gathering heroes learn spells in the teammate's spell book. Possibly campaigns are the best place for Scholar, as heroes who advance to the next scenario start it with the spells from the previous one.
Scholar is a terrific secondary skill for a secondary hero, and not the worst skill the main hero(es) could have.
