>If your "possible" roll is a 1--even if you have +19 targets added because of Lore, so your range is 1-27 targets [rather than the base of 1-8]--then you can have six hundred ranks of MOC, and you're still going to hit one target. -Krakii
Correct.

>Estild, could you (or one of the other GMs) go over to the Krakiipedia page [link is earlier in this thread] and give it the imprimatur of veracity? :) -Krakii
I only see 3 needed corrections:
"The normal--no additional training ranks in either Lore or MOC--base range of results is eight (8) for splash damage, so imagine rolling an eight-sided die (d8)."
It's actually 0 - 8 and a weighted roll in favor of the lower end numbers.
"With twenty creatures in the room, your first roll can be between one and thirteen (base of 1-8 plus 5 for Lore skill, or 1-13); you cannot possibly hit creatures numbered fourteen through twenty."
"The next roll can be anything between one and ten."
Both of these rolls are 0 to X.
>I hate to argue with Estild.
>But... I've never not hit targets with splashes from crystal and metal wands, and I've got no such lore for either. But I do have 5-10 MoC ranks depending on the enhancives I'm wearing. -Virilneus
With 0 lore ranks and 101 ranks of MoC:
Your hands glow with power as you invoke the phrase for Major Fire...
Your spell is ready.
You gesture at a hobgoblin.
You hurl a roaring ball of fire at a hobgoblin!
- AS: +208 vs DS: -62 with AvD: +70 + d100 roll: +6 = +346
- ... and hit for 138 points of damage!
- Left leg burned off at the knee. Ouch.
The roaring ball of fire strikes a hobgoblin, blossoming into a much larger sphere of flame upon impact.
- ... 15 points of damage!
- Burst of flames to back fries shoulder blades. Youch!
Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.

[Estild's Underwater Dome]
Various aquatic life forms can be seen swimming in every direction from within the confines of this dome. All that separates the vast amounts of water and the inner environment is a translucent sphere. Numerous multihued cushions cover the floor, offering rest to weary travelers visiting this tranquil habitat. You also see a rolton that appears stunned, a rolton that is lying down, a giant ant, a giant ant, a hobgoblin that appears dead, a hobgoblin that appears stunned, a goblin that appears stunned, a goblin that appears stunned, a giant rat, a giant rat, Mestys's murmaider list and a crystalline scrying pool.
