"Wizard Level Too Low" Can't learn from scrolls bug?

[chefcook90]

So apparently someone with exactly 1 level in Wizard should be able to learn ANY spell in the game as long as their total caster level is high enough for them to have a spell slot for a spell of that level?
At least that's what I keep hearing.

Well, it's not working for me :P

I get a message saying "Wizard Level Too Low" when trying to learn level 3 spells from scrolls on a level 1 wizard even though my total caster level is 5 and I have two level 3 spell slots.
(Sorcerer 3 / Wizard 1 / Cleric 1)

You only have access to 2nd level spells at best with that combination. Sure, you have level 3 spell slots, but you can only use them for upcasting lower level spells.

Do you have lvl 3 slots ? If you do then you can . If you don’t then you can’t

Ah, so dipping 1 level into wizard will let you learn any level 6 spell so long as you have 11 levels concentrated into a single caster class?
Like Sorcerer 11 / Wizard 1?

Correct

2 cleric / 1 wiz / 9 sorcerer also work for exemple.

If you don't have the level to cast them you don't have the spellslots to learn them either AFAIK
