I understand making a legendary melee machine like this will be fun. I understand he will undoubtedly be able to cause 75 pts of damage per swing and have multiple swings/round, capable of dishing out 300-400 h pts per round. Melee prowess is NOT in question.
There is a "power" unbalance in favor of spell casters over all others from what 8th level on, maybe sooner? The higher level you go the greater the contrast. Once you reach an insane level such as this does the fighter/babrbarian melee types all of a sudden catch up? Am I missing something? I.
I had to ask because Ive never played epic, have no interest, its just a matter of which spell is cast when? IMO your building a pc for failure, although fun to build a "hulk smash" pc, the spell casters are going to mop the floor with you.
Heres something that popped out, just a 1st level power, nothing optimised, take a 40th Psion, with mind thrust, thats 40 D10, with a dc of 10+20+whatever feats he has to boost his stuff+ability modifier. lets maximise dmg so 34d10=340 hpts with 1 power, at this level Im thinking that this single classed Psion will do this several times a round, twin power, quicken power, maximised & whats the feat that X .5 dmg, well anyways point being, this is just 1 example, its only a first level power and its going to be multiple hundreds of hit pts per round.
