A just told a friend of mine about the Archlich Epic Destiny from Arcane Power, and he brought up Vecna. I think Vecna is hopeless against an Archlich.
Archlich has Resist 20 Necrotic and an Aura 3 for 5 Radiant against Undead. Vecna has Aura 10 that heals Undead for 50 HP and is Vulnerable 20 Radiant. Vecna's best non-necrotic attack deals 2d10+9, and his best necrotic attack deals 2d8+15.
Given these stats, an Archlich standing next to Vecna will take a maximum of 29 damage each round but be healed for 50, so the Archlich is always topped off. Vecna will take 25 damage from the Archlich's aura. Thus it's only a matter of time until Vecna dies.
The only out I can see is that nowhere does the Archlich Epic Destiny specifically state that the player gains the "Undead" keyword. The fluff says it (twice!) but it doesn't specifically say that they are undead.
Any thoughts?
