Familiar gate

Not sure if this belongs here or in the mechanics folder, but:

Is distance a factor in whether or not your cast of 930 is successful?

Is level a factor, or is it just 900 ranks and EMC?

I assumed you'd assume I'd read the Krakii article and searched the relevant archived threads before posting. The reason I asked is because I am poorly trained for the spell, but it seems to work flawlessly over short distances, but to often fail very badly over long distances. My sample size is admittedly very small, but I am hesitant to waste deeds testing it out myself, and am curious if my results are simply coincidence, or if anyone else has experienced anything similar.

As far as I can tell, coincidence. I don't think there's a mechanical difference between teleportation spells and relevant distances traveled. You may be better off asking if a similar increased in difficulty / decrease in accuracy exists with something like a cleric/empath fogging.

If you feel that you are poorly trained for 930, I recommend dropping the ~20k silvers and making gate runes on some stones. They up the chances of success significantly.

I've never seen anything effecting 930 other than what is listed in that Krakii article, and I have gated a lot.

Thanks for the replies.
