Default Re: Random Magic Paths - is it truly random?

Well, I must say your test game results show none of the odd distributions mentioned in this thread; they don't appear to be more concentrated into 3 paths, and certainly aren't lacking any one path. If Im less busy today I might actually run some tests myself, and we could even look at the elemental/sorcery ratio for hundreds of mages.

For your test games, let me combine the two:
F-25,A-24,W-22,E-28,S-20,D-25,N-25,B-23
the 'duck number' is 41%
the elemental/sorcery ratio is 1.0645

Looks good to me. Hopefully I can make some more tests today.
