    Creating Magic Items Question

    That's true for all non-standard magic items: "Be careful." Even some standard ones require care. I was only suggesting a "guideline formula", we all know those can easily be broken and the DM has the job of ruling what is in/out of his game.

    Do Multiclassed Epic Characters Get The Shaft?

    No, I'm not confused. I was referring to the bonus feats a Rogue can choose to take (versus the "special abilities" he can take, such as slippery mind). The same applies to Fighter, but either way works. My point was that if the Ftr10/Rog11 could only take Epic feats at every 3 character...

    Would You Let a Halfling Rog1 Have this Magic Item?

    I'd give to a second level Rogue, it's too much for a first level character :).

    Do Multiclassed Epic Characters Get The Shaft?

    Rules aside for a moment, doesn't this serve as a huge penalty for those who do multiclass? Take a Ftr10/RogX. So we are going to say at level 30 the rogue can now take Epic feats with his bonus feats? Meanwhile, his straight classed companions will have a tremendously greater amount of...

    Creating Magic Items Question

    Well, any spell with an XP cost should not be allowed in an item that functions a potentially unlimited number of times over the items lifetime. That's a bit of common sense for anyone interested :) .

    Epic Feats

    What's your point? It's a 21st level character, do you think he should have to take Weapon Focus or Dodge just as if he were only a Ftr1? "Haha, I'm an archmage who has tons of combat experience and I have just learned the art of Dodge!" Mook Ftr1: "Yeah, we all learned that. Ha ha!" Face...

    Creating Magic Items Question

    Market Price / (5 * number of days) So if we wanted an item that worked once a week, divide the market price by 35. And as far as I know, it's not official, or in the DMG. It just makes sense to me...

    Epic Feats

    What I don't understand about not allowing bonus feats for epic feats is simply: why? ELH page 8, says you can. Andy, when posed a question on his forum, said "I'd say no", but did not contradict or address the content of his own book when someone pointed out the obvious text that stated...

    Enervation Spell

    Not that deadly when you play at higher levels. The wand would have a caster level of 7, not enough to defeat the SR of just about anything with SR....

    Best level to fight the Tarrasque

    That vorpal HR is a bit unclear. I don't see how x10 force damage translates to +6d8.

    Epic Feats

    Ugh, I provided the relevant references in another thread.... As someone who has read the Andy thread, he only says "I'd say no." There is the page 8 reference he does not later dispute at all, which I find strange given it is one of the few multipage threads on his message boards. Here's the...

    [ELH Adventure] Anyone Try Running This? {Spoilers}

    I agree about the dragon. Perhaps a CR 20 dragon instead of the one in the adventure and then remove the "cold bomb". Well, I think the DM knew or at least read that part of the adventure. Then he looked at the Infernal's abilities and the story became "we should give him the book and go on...

    [ELH Adventure] Anyone Try Running This? {Spoilers}

    (Bump) I find it hard to beleive no one has played through it.... or at least read it over.....

    Do Multiclassed Epic Characters Get The Shaft?

    Count me in the same camp. The above post are many of the exact same points I argued for following page 8 instead of Andy posting on his messageboard say "No, I don't think so." A poster then referenced page 8, and Andy did not comment further. Those interested can find the relevant thread...

    [ELH] Monk: My fists are useless!

    I was trying to have a rules based discussion, if you don't have anything to add you do not have to post. No class can do everything. I'm merely examining the ki strike ability and finding it to be useless. Honestly, I would rather remove it from the class then have it as it is. Then...

    Getting players to Move

    How many players are there? The more players, the more dialog and debate. Ran a one shot where my sidekick (a PC) only spoke to me, didn't like talking to other people. Since there was only the two of us, I got to decide everything. That went really fast :-). Hey, we won they day, so I must...

    [ELH] Monk: My fists are useless!

    The problem is the same: Ki Strike is useless. Instead of using it as a skill the monk has, you have suggested replacing it with a magic item. This is what we ended up doing in an ELH one-shot I played in. I wasn't the monk, but I suggested a "cheap" pair of gloves that was (in essence) some...

    Epic Spell Resistance Items

    Just in case there is any confusion left.... I was wrong about the x10 I posted above. You have to break a limit (such as +5 resistance, +5 enhancement on a weapon, +6 enhancement for an ability) to get a x10 multiplier on the price. Next, SR items become EPIC when they cost more than 200K...
