Default Re: 2? randoms .... stack?!?

ok thank you.

Out of interest, since I am not great at math: what are the chances of, say, 250 CMs *not* getting 2 randoms in the same path?

CM of spring and autumn has one random sorcery and one random elemental magic, just like the Jade Sorceresses. So their randoms never stack. Non spring and autumn CM's have one random sorcery or elemental.

The chance of 250 units with 2 completely random picks not yielding a single double is 7/8 raised to the power of 250, appr 3*1/1000000000000000.
