I would like to add my two cents into discussion. For some reason in about 75% of MP games I've played so far people seem to prefer "rare" random events settings. Obviously in the MP game with such settings combo Order3/Misfortune3 is more attractive than on "regular events". So far I choosed it in pretty much every MP game that I've played on "rare" random event settings, and I like the results so far - the bad events are rare enough to be of rather minor annoyance, but 120 free scale points from "misfortune 3" can go a long way toward imporving your dominion and/or your pretender.

Thus being said I reilize of course that such situation deals with game settings different from "normal", therefore it probably should not be considered for balance purposes. The reason why I meantioned this is that based upon my (still somewhat limited) MP experience so far "rare" events settings seem to be pretty common there.
