It shows you which poaths were searched at which level exactly as though you had manually searched the province with a mage.

I've only seen searches ranging from lvl 1-3, lvl 4 might be possible but I've yet to see it, even though my mage's got a lvl 10 path with a booster.
What's strange is that, if it doesn't search for a higher lvl than you have, your actual lvl doesn't seem to influence that much : I've got several provinces searched at lvl 1-3 in a path where I am only lvl 3.

More often than not you'll only get a lvl 1 search anyway.

It checks again every turn and you may find a province searched for lvl 2-3 in a given path when it was only searched for lvl 1 the turn before.


Hope it helps.

Kheldron,
Thanks for the reply. So it only searches within the paths of the casting mage up to that mage's level. I wasn't sure if it was a weak ashraic record where a pure astral mage might find sites outside his (sole) path.
