A question on Atlantis

[Frosted Flake]

You get to recruit a 3w 2s mage for 180. For 70 more the 2s becomes 2random. I have a boatload of seer kings with evry combo of w and s but ZERO anything else. Am i snakebitten or is atlantis that lame?

[tinkthank]

Kings of the Deep cost 290, dont they? And I am pretty sure you are snakebitten

[The Panther]

You are snakebitten. The deep seers are quite powerful because the two random can be any ability and are always 2 of the same one. It's really nice to get a mage with 5 water that way and he can eventually cast neifel flames.

I always get pissed when my deep seer comes with the 2 astral, for it is a waste of the gold since the other guy is cheaper with identical abilities.

In my current Atlantis game, 3 of my first 6 seers came with blood, so I have a nice blood economy going already.

as I remember the 2? are both in the same path, so your bad luck is a bit more understandable. just buy some more

[Yossar]

It does seem that sorcery Kings of the Deep are slightly more common than elemental ones, but I could be wrong. How many is "a boatload"? Maybe your game is bugged.

[Frosted Flake]

yep they are either 5w or 2s, swore i had a split but i dont . Ty for the info i'll keep calling em

[archaeolept]

yes, but how many of them do you have?

[Frosted Flake]

6 !
err 5 one was a free commander

[archaeolept]

so even counting even distribution, there's a one in four chance that a king of the deep has water or astral as their randoms. so for 5 of them that's a 1/1024 chance. Not great odds, but not unbelievable either.

No ...but I didnt know they came paired, then its off the wall bad if they are not, also if I wasnt unlucky and the antlanteans where borked , I kinda wanted to know to stop beating my head on the wall.
