Divine Oracle 7-9? Loremaster? The only arcane I have played have been a straight illusionist I played as a warmage, and then a warmage (I like blowing things up);

You should have loads of spells, so there is no excuse not to have the scroll for the job. Often you'll only need one, say comprehend languages or protection from chaos, scroll. Then there's the other category of scrolls, the ones that are 100% until your life depends on them, like water breathing and gust of wind. I'd stay away from rays and orbs for a while, cuz you'll miss a lot. Focus on saving throw spells like necromancy and evocation, and use that high INT.
