I'm not sure if it's not up-to-date or just incorrect, but last night I had a character with a level 7 evocations skill and a level 8 earth magic skill who could not get scrolls of acquirement to give him anything other than rods when selecting the "staff" option (and hoping for an earth staff). According to the current information presented here under the staff section that shouldn't happen, right? Am I reading it wrong? I'd correct that section or make it more clear but I'm not sure what the actual probabilities are. --[[User:Buddy23Lee|Buddy23Lee]] ([[User talk:Buddy23Lee|talk]]) 21:13, 10 September 2013 (CEST)

I'm not sure if it's not up-to-date or just incorrect, but last night I had a character with a level 7 evocations skill and a level 8 earth magic skill who could not get scrolls of acquirement to give him anything other than rods when selecting the "staff" option (and hoping for an earth staff).

It was changed (actually a while back, now that I think about it) to be less deterministic. I'll go ahead and write something vague but accurate for now, and possibly in the next few days try to look up the actual behavior. -Ion frigate (talk) 21:47, 10 September 2013 (CEST)
