Actually, it's 1/16 (2 randoms, each with 1/4 chance of being E) but otherwise, yeah, go for Spectral mages.

Another alternative if you have enough W gems and W/D mages (which should be feasable as C'tis, moreso if it's MA) would be Hidden in Snow. It's an expensive spell, and both the chances of getting mages as their magic are very random, but the accompanying undead troops are quite good too. (After going to the wicky for the exact numbers: You get ~75% (influenced by magic scale) of getting the first mage, and ~25% to get the second, so on average one mage, with a small chance of 0 or 2 mages, and each one has 50% of having 2E. (and 7/8 to have at least 1E, 1/8 to have 3E)
