Definitely using this and your bestiary when the party I'm DMing for gets this late game. One thing I'm not sure about though. Are there any class restrictions on Epic and Elder Spells, or can anyone with enough QP to buy them get them? Also, do you need spell slots for these levels and if so, how do you get them?

I'm still working out the details; however, there are epic boons for adding innate casting or spellcasting to a character. No class restrictions. If you spend the QP to gain the required epic boons you are good to go.

Ok, thanks for clearing that up. The party I'm DMing for aren't anywhere near this point yet, but I just wanted to understand it well before I got there.

FYI, there are two epic character options on DMs Guild and I have found at least one on Reddit. I can email you the Reddit one if you want.

When do you think the next update for this will come out? I am quite interested to see where this will go.

I don't have a set date, but I'm definitely getting the itch to get back to this. My plan was to finish of the 1st drafts of my 5e Epic Monster Updates and then get back to this thread. My best guess would be to return fully to this project in 6-10 months, but I really hope I can make it back quicker than that.

Just an idea, but perhaps consider adding another table to the Epic Weapons for dexterity based characters? As it stands right now, an epic fighter is useless if he isn't using strength since the strength weapons completely outclass any dexterity weapons by a long shot.

I'd imagine the table could use the exact same format and that the weapons would just be lighter and sharper rather than harder and heavier? Maybe less base damage but more critical strike chance or something? Also to balance out the AC bonus you get automatically from dexterity. You don't want dexterity outshining strength but you also don't want dexterity fighters to never be able to properly use an epic weapon.

Just my 2 cents!

Before I knew of this thread, I made my own epic boons. This was partly because I thought the boons from the DMG were kinda limited. I know you already made your own boon system, but perhaps you can draw some inspiration from the boons I made.

Boons:
1. Hit Me Baby: Gain an extra 40 hit points
2. Cause More is Better: Gain max hit points every level (reroll if already rolled)
3. High Magic: Gain an extra spell slot. You can have only one 9 th level extra slot, two 8 th level slots,
three 7 th level slots etc. Reroll if you don’t have access to spells.
4. Like a Fish in the Ocean: Gain Swimming Speed equal to your walking speed and you gain the
ability to breath underwater (reroll if you can already swim)
5. No Mountain High Enough: Increase or decrease your size by one size category by one, you
choose (larger: increase your range by 5 feet and gain +4 damage on your melee attacks, shorter:
increase your AC by +2)
6. Raging: Gain an extra attack when you use the attack action (reroll if caster)
7. Power Up: increase a stat of your choice by +2, or two stats by +1 (maximum of 30)
