I have never seen a dispel cast with more TOTAL gams than the original spell fail. I have never seen a dispel cst with less TOTAL gems than the original spell succeed.
This leads me to believe that there is no open ended die roll involved, and that the bigger spell simply wins. Every time.
Note, the spell doesn't seem to care about how many extra gems are spent, only how many total gems are spent. So a Burden of Time with zero extra gems would need 41+ extra gems to dispel (because a base Burden of Time has 70 gems in it, and the base Dispel has only 30 astral Pearls in it).
Note2, it looks like it's the total gems you actually spent, so if you have been casting spells out of a magic bonus site, it's that much cheaper to dispel them as well.
Note3, this is probably why the minimum Dispel is 30 pearls, as that is coincidentally the minimum cost of any Global Enchantment (Stellar Brilliance, as it happens).

Wow, If that is accurate it really makes dispel quite weak.
I wonder how come it's not in the manual or something.
A confirmation from the Devs would help a lot.
@Truper, can you tell us where did you get this information regarding dispel chance?- Does it agree with your experience?
