Message: <blockquote data-quote="Kinematics" data-source="post: 9008662" data-attributes="member: 6932123">All right, third code revision. A bit of help at rpg.stackexchange.com finally got me a working version that properly caps rerolls per cast rather than per die. Link: <a href="https://anydice.com/program/2f2e9" target="_blank">AnyDice</a>This also has dramatic effects on the final values when used with Empower Spell, at least of what I can see so far. (The base spell results didn't change.) Unfortunately the code is slow enough that the server times out for 3d6 and higher, so I haven't figured out how to get values for those yet.Edit: I can run it with fewer rerolls and get results. It seems the first couple rerolls have significant boosts, and then it tapers off after that. I put down minimum estimates below, based on what results I was able to get.Edit 2: Improved the code enough to get more complete results.My new results, plus the old previous ones to see the error:<table style='width: 100%'><tr><th>Level</th><th>Charisma</th><th>Burst d6</th><th>Burst+Emp d6</th><th>Wrong Burst+Emp d6</th></tr><tr><td>1</td><td>16</td><td>4.20</td><td>5.34</td><td>5.94</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>18</td><td>8.40</td><td>9.87</td><td>12.03</td></tr><tr><td>11</td><td>20</td><td>12.60</td><td>13.68</td><td>18.20</td></tr><tr><td>17</td><td>20</td><td>16.79</td><td>17.66</td><td>23.98</td></tr><tr><td>20</td><td>22</td><td>16.80</td><td>~17.7+</td><td>24.43</td></tr></table>At the very least, it doesn't appear competitive with the d8 cantrips like it had been before.</blockquote>
