Re: Question to developers - magic sites
 

I don't think you can get the level of optimiztion you're looking for. From long experience, the type of magic site found isn't correlated to the type of terrain strongly enough to make any real difference, if at all. For instance, one might think that Earth sites might be most likely to be found in mountains, or nature sites in forests, but this does not appear to be the case.

You are mistaken Truper. There are a lot of Earth sites that appear [/b]only[/b] in mountains. Considering the mechanic Dominion uses to allocate magic sites in provinces (which was explained by Kristoffer), this results in Mountains being the best terrain to look for Earth sites. The difference is subtle, but it's noticable.

(I've checked the sites list to confirm it)

Corwin,

Do you have any results to share on what provences are best to find certain magic types?

Or... perhaps. What are the best ones to look for death sites in?

Thanks!

Tip on site searching :

check in your dominions for provinces that keep having a scale different that yours : when I see a province near my capital with death scale while all others with the same level of dominions are with growth +1, I knw I need to search for a death site there

No, sorry Maltrease. I have been trying to get some hard numbers from developers, but haven't got any so far.

Re: Question to developers - magic sites
 

As far as I've seen, swamps are good for Nature and Death sites. (And forests are obviously good for Nature sites) Aside from that I'm in the dark, though.

Re: Question to developers - magic sites
 

Earth generally shows up more in mountain sites from my experience,nature in forests (I think even dom 3 hints at this) As surprising as it is,water crystals are not as common in water as you would think
