Legends: probability of spell research From: dresnick@athena.mit.edu (David I Resnick) Date: Tue, 16 Mar 1993 22:36:13 +0000 Hi, I've been thinking that eventually I'll want to research a spell. I know that factors which influence success are: level of spell, level of person doing research, whether the spell is in your discipline, whether you are in a magic guild, and how much extra money you invest if in a guild. But how much do these have an effect? For example, if I want to learn 122 (character netherworld posession), a level 4 summoner spell, what roughly are the odds for A level 21 Wizard? A level 11 Summoner? I'm not going to try this until I get some extra silverleaf, but I'm still curious how to estimate these odds. How bad is the curse you get if you fail, and how big is a "slight" chance of insanity? Thanks! -- David Resnick dresnick@athena.mit.edu Referenced By Up
