Some of the sky augments are epic (shura kabuto, zenith pumps, seiryu's kote, adaman hauberk), but the variance is high enough to discourage most people to do it. And the batch of stats from which the random system choses is quite big. The different lists of augments on ffxiclopedia or BG wiki don't have even half the possiblilities.
