I managed to combine some 49 necro spells okay with a 167 research skill. Its a risk whatever happens... what percentage would make you say "I'll try!" ? You can get the runes again if the combine fails [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] | |||

Ice comet's not a great spell. It does more DPS than Rend but is less mana-efficient, which most of the time is what you really care about. Supernova, the other research spell at that level, is also huge DPS for a PBAE nuke (which you'll care about if you have any sense =p) but is terrible mana efficiency; you're better off with Thunderclap.
The two spells have some use but are by no means vital so don't worry too much if you screw up the combine.

No one answered your question! Tomtee to the rescue!
170 skill, 184 trivial. Formula for success for trivial = Skill - (trivial * 3 / 4) + 51.5 170 - 138 + 51.5 = 83.5% chance of success!! Good luck | ||

Very good point, Estu. The formula for success is actually MIN(SKILL - (.75*trivial) + 51.5, 95) -- this is for things w/ trivial higher than 68. For things w/ lower than trivial of 68: MIN(Skill - Trivial + 66, 95) And actually that's not completely true either - you always have a 5 percent chance of success in either formula REGARDLESS of skill level. There's always a 5 percent chance to fail or succeed, regardless of skill. It is perhaps the most heartbreaking thing about doing combines, especially when you advertise you are 'max skill' -- people don't think their combine will be the one that fails, but they invariably do -- 5% of the time. When I was a jeweler on Fippy I sold ~200 pieces a day for awhile and you'd always see about 10 failures -- In fact when I calculate my absolute price per piece of jewelry I factor in that 5% fail rate so the 'bottom' line increases more than the actual cost of materials. | |||

By the way, Ice Comet is No Trade (confirmed this yesterday). The other level 49 wizard research spells are tradeable, though.
