Is it possible with enough skill to train off the the higher tier of backlashes given enough sorcery ranks and for least dangerous? More specifically concerning with magical inert and limb explosion.

My necro casted fireball for the first time a couple weeks back at 150+ sorcery and blew up both arms and hands, which left me really confused about how the "Least dangerous" thing work.

Even though I'm able to accept that it was just a % deal, that on top of magical inert making me loose both scrolls it's certainly made me feel like why should i bother with multiple sorcery scrolls that give me little experience compared to the free research to cap experience and seemingly same risk anyway.


This whole magic 3.0 and quirks keep putting me off from reactivating my moon mage too, since I've always conceived him to be a secret sorcerer.

Has something changed recently, or have I just had terrible luck?

Over the last several days, I've researched sorcery 13 times. The first 8 of those had no backfire, then suddenly this morning I'm backfiring every other research (2 success, 3 failed). Each one is giving me a head bleeder and severe paralysis.

Sorcery: 299 03.56% rapt (30/34)

I'm not sure it affects research, but I have the sorcerous feats as well.
