Not at all

Well, perhaps if it gets a recruitable it should move to Nature 4. I was trying to fill a Nature 3 hole in the path search list for Sea.

Regarding it being "my site", consider it public domain brainstorming; feel free to improve as you see fit, but whoever actually packages it up will presumably have the final say. I believe Endoperez is volunteering to actually roll these into a patch, so it'll be his site :-)

Absolutely. I actually think it would be good to modify some of the higher powered sites (e.g. Throne of the World) to be path level > 4. Of course, that tends to favor spell based searching vs. mage based site-searching (unless you have a supply of empowered mages to search with...at which point you're probably the de-facto winner anyway.)

That said, I wasn't actually planning to use site path values > 4...seems like a different purpose to a mod to just introduce more magic site variety vs. changing the game mechanics.

Thanks, and again, feel free to muck about with them as you see fit. I have no expectation of "ownership" of anything posted on internet forums. Of course, it might be more productive to just post additional ones of your own
