Need help making a decision: item spells & learnable

I made spells that deal damage based on stats for mages in the map I'm currently making. I also made items(scrolls) that allow you to use these spells available to all classes. I ran into a situation to what I should do with the scrolls, since if you use them a certain number of times, they upgrade(much like in FF Open RPG).

So, I was thinking: Should I make the spells on the scrolls weaker then the spells that the mages learn, or should I keep them the same? Since I plan on releasing my current map, I thought I should see what other people thought. Please be honest and thanks to those that participate. I will do what you guys think.

Initally no, but later on yes. However it also depends on the map but generally my approch is the above.
