By the way, regarding spells. I performed the same calculation myself, but for The Eastern Expedition. It seems to be similar.

The difficulty lies in the fact that the game places spells sequentially, and, of course, if a spell appears in a certain slot, it cannot appear again, so P5 = 1 - (1 - P)^5 is an incorrect formula.

For probabilities, you need to calculate a sum of this type:

P5 = W(0)/S + sum[i = 1..n][W/S * W(0)/(S - W)] and so on. If anyone understands probability theory, please let me know how to simplify this calculation. I found the probabilities using a computer.
