Unfortunately with probablity, you never get the same results. You can work on the same thing several times and get different results everytime. I hate it because it usually seems to work against me everytime. That's why I don't gamble . . .

Wouldn't you have more success with EV scrolls? Could just pack some of those with you on your next hunt. (have not tried this myself, but plan to once I can scribe them)
I notice, that when I fizzle, if I cast again immediately, my chances of fizzling again are very high. If I pause a few moments and try again, it seems to help.

Just appears that way. No chance that magery success was coded that way into the game :p

At 100 magery you will not fail any circle spell when using a scroll. You can cast energy vortex 100% success this way.

Level 6 bugs me... I just assume, for level 1, that you actually need a minimum skill of -5.0, or whatever would make it 44 points from 0 to 100%.

I'm not sure that this is a factor or not, but my character seems to have a higher success rate when I'm wearing little or no armour. I know that armour factors into medidtaion but does it also factor into casting? I've tested it slightly and armour does seem to lower my success rate, but I"m not sure how accurate these tests are. Any ideas or useful input?
