Safe rituals advancement?

I am loving the Rituals section in this game, I love the random word lists and all of it.

I did have a question on advancement however. The Advancement table shows the number of safe rituals going up +1 for each level, so at lvl 1 you have 2 safe rituals; level 2 you have three; level 3, you have four; and so on. But the paragraph above the table says, “The number of Rituals you can perform is equal to half your Adventurer Level + 1, rounded down, and is given in the final column on the chart.”

So: (Adv Lvl / 2 ) + 1, round down = # of safe Rituals.

Ignoring lvl 1 = 2 safe rituals since that’s just what we get from character creation, Lvl 2’s math would be 2 safe rituals still as 2 halved = 1, then add 1 = 2. Lvl 3 would be 2 safe rituals because we’re rounding down. So on and so on.

Since that didn’t match up I thought, ok, maybe for level 2 it just means add the result to the previous amount of safe rituals, but that comes out with 4, rather than 3 rituals as noted in the table.

Which is the intended interpretation? Or have I misunderstood the math? or???

I do like the table since it means we get more safe rituals more often, rather than every other level, but some clarification would be nice. I’m used to level-less magic so this is very new to me. Thanks so much!!

Hi June,

This is an error in the table itself, thanks for pointing it out! I’ve updated the advancement table here to reflect the correct numbers and I’ll push an update to the downloadable files as soon as possible.

New characters should only get one safe Ritual each day - two Rituals as listed in the text is a hangover from a previous draft.

Sorry for any confusion with this!

Hi Chris! Thanks so much for getting back to me and the clarification!!
