I'm surprised nobody mentioned the "Wolf Berserker" feat yet. It's from Unapproachable East and gives a +4 to trip checks and allows to to take improved trip without taking combat expertise. All you need is to be a barbarian that's been in rashemen for a short time :) Lets assume a lvl 9...

There are lots of CR 20+ creatures without freedom of movement. And in our 27th lvl party only the wizard has freedom of movement, the rest doesn't even ask the cleric to cast it, because most are "warriors" that are either extremely good in grapples (like our monk) or have close combat...

We also have an epic vop character ... he and the DM made the following rules. · Exalted bonus to AC: 4 + 1 per 3 levels. · Deflection bonus to AC: 1 per 6 levels. · Natural armor bonus to AC: 1 per 8 levels. · Resistance bonus to saves: 1 per 6 levels (starting at level 7). · +2...

If she's physically weak she should be mentally strong :) ... ideas - the party will first attack some kind of dominated thrall instead of the real demon/devil - true combat --- hard to hit due to displacement, blur, fog, whatever --- possibly flying --- maybe nice to use antimagic...

Its easier to accept "It's a DC 80", than "You can't do that" :D And the ELH is a pretty good guideline for epic and powerfull non-epic play, if DM and players spend some time balancing the characters.

Its not that insane a DC, invisibility is just a 2nd lvl spell ... an invis, inanimate person gets a +40 on hide DC ... to any illusion would have a much higher DC. Especially because you get a will save once you interact with it, something you don't get with invisibility.

It's just a book full of options that you can use ... every option you give available can make the (n)pc's stronger, but you can also remove standard things from the game. Like we play without the base paladin and ranger class and use the prestige paladin and ranger instead. There are cool...

The MM glossary says that elementals that are "generally humanoid in form" are proficient with simple weapons.

In our current epic adventure ( lvl 27 ), we were gated in by a god from another world to help them against the demons that threaten to overrun their world ... we're all exalted characters, and only bother ourselves with the champions of the enemies, and solving problems like "why can't we cast...

... or a sorcerer 1 / cleric 7 ... or a lots-of-fighter-classes/sorcerer 1 with a reach weapon that casts enlarge person all the time

If your base race is the same size or bigger than your lycanthrope part there is no problem, you can wear the armor in hybrid shape.

They are options you can use if the circumstances are available, not always like with defensive fighting. A combat option, let's call it "offensive fighting" that would give +2 attack and -4 or -6 AC, and you could use all the time is seriously to powerfull, that's why it's a feat.

Higher ground depends on the circumstances, and charge is a standard action.

If a combat option that is not even a feat gives a bonus to attack, its grossly overpowered, no matter what the drawbacks are.

The feat you might be looking for is "Reckless Offence" ... it's in Races of Faerun Prereq's: Power Attack, BaB +2 Benefit: -4 AC, +2 competence to melee attacks

Group treasure is very much an option ... it's the stuff you get from your fallen enemies ... you drag it to town, sell it, split the money ... and the VoP gives his share to whatever institute/person/group he wants to. He doesn't have to "own" any of it at any time.

1. The "The new form must be within one category of your normal size" limit from Alter Self is only changed at the underside by Polymorph's "can't cause a subject to assume a form smaller than fine", there is no change in the upper size limit, so if you're medium, the limit is still large. 2...

he would have to give it away as soon as it was a masterwork item

Spells: Create Magical Tatoo is +1 (FRCS) Items: Ank of Ascension is +4 (RoF) Terran Brandy is +2 (BoVD) for d20+20 minutes

The things that are hard to replace - bracers of armor +1 and light/medium/heavy fortification - ring of wizardry's - ring of evasion
