The problem with magic generally seems to be that many scrolls can be cast after each other and all by a single caster(with the highest spellcasting).
If I am not mistaken, casting difficulty for nobles has also been increased, basically every casting was successful with a regular untrained spell casting skill.
Now even if it becomes more difficult, having more scrolls will always beat that.
To solve that we could have cooling down periods or a mana pool that gets depleted and generates more slowly after a scroll is cast.
This could limit a single noble to casting only 3 scrolls at once max and prevent further casting for a certain period right after.
The amount of mana in pool and how quickly it generates could be depended on the casting skill.
unskilled casters could be limited to one scroll at a turn every few turns and only close to 100% spellcasting characters can cast several scrolls in a single turn every 2 or 3 turns.
Unique items could give spellcasting bonus or even direct mana regen or pool bonuses.
Magic energy per region could also influence mana regenration rates, if lots of magic has been used somewhere not long before, it could slow down mana regen in that region or better, the whole area.
This also prevents all magic to be unleashed in a single area not long after each other.
