	How exactly does it work in the formula here given that no max roll or number of rolls are listed? If it's just one roll of 1d (2/3*Invocations) it seems like we should just say that instead, because the function name just causes confusion (and most readers don't keep a copy of the source to grep through). If I'm wrong in how it works, we should expand on how it's being used/how it works, because it's causing me confusion!

		+	:I've updated the formula to add the number of rolls (two), but the max roll is already given and what you've listed: 2/3* Invocations (subject to random-rounding to make it an integer). The actual formula does indeed use random2avg() to average over two rolls, so it wouldn't be accurate to simply use 1dN notation. Perhaps random2avg() needs a wiki page, since it's a commonly used RNG function in DCSS, or the wiki could use standardized language to describe averaging die instead of using the function name. --[[User:Gammafunk\|Gammafunk]] ([[User talk:Gammafunk\|talk]]) 12:01, 29 November 2016 (CET)

		+	<code>failure = 40 - (you.piety / 20) - you.skill(SK_INVOCATIONS, 2);</code>
