I have found one before with telepathy. I have recently heard people saying this is no longer possible. I have also heard people saying it is still possible. So is it possible or not?

The chance is lowered from 1.4% to 0.4%. You basically need to roll the highest number when you encounter an R_ESP flag.
Code: Select all

R:10 <--- 10% chance for...
F:R_ESP <--- random ESP power!

#R:1 <-- taken out: 1% chance for
#F:ESP_ALL <-- ESP_ALL
By comparison, a torch of presentiment...

... will have (1/25 + 0.2*1/25 + 0.2*1/25) = 5.6% chance of ESP_ALL. I think they're all independent events (i.e., you could still get the third clause even if you didn't get the second R_ESP in your item). I could be wrong; so let's say presentiment torches have *up to* 5.6% chance of esp_all.
