Personally, I can't believe the dragon made it through playtesting (was there any?) Anyone else try the Epic Level Adventure? What was your experience with it?

I would. Why? Because there should be no way the wizard can qualify for them (at least most of the powerful ones). But if that same character wanted to learn to "fight good", I see no harm in allowing the character to take something like Epic Prowess.

Nope, I disagree. It looks like this statement has already been disproven above. I'd say what Andy said in response to a forum post is not official. I seriously doubt he considered it for very long before posting.

It's 13th level. Considering at 13th level the GMW and magic items get to +4, +2 to only bypass DR isn't much at all. And a lot of the tougher creatures have DR of X/+4. Usually X is so high that a monk's unarmed strike is meaningless. And even the CR 21+ creatures typically have a DR of *at...

This is kind of my point. The intention of the ability is to obviously strike creatures with DR. HOWEVER, examine when the monk gets +1 (or +2 or +3) ki strike and compare to the level of a cleric/wizard casting greater magic weapon and the creatures of equivalent CR in the MM. There is no...

While creating 26th level adventures for the Epic Level Adventure in the ELH, my fellow PC was a monk who wanted to use his fists. Unfortunately, monks get a very limited number of feats, and spending all of them on Ki Strike improvements didn't sound like a winner to him. So the DM allowed...

Yeah, Andy addressed the issue by saying "I don't think so". However, there are explicit rules on page 8 of the ELH. The book spells it out quite clearly there.

Actually, IIRC, the bonus feats you get from each class from that point on (fighter bonus feats or the wizard bonus feats every 5th level) can be Epic feats from the associated Epic feats bonus list for the class.

Complimentary SPOILER warning. Read at your own risk. This is for those of you who have ran through the adventure or have simply just read it and would like to discuss. If you plan on playing in the ELH Adventure, this is NOT the thread to read. I recently played in the adventure as a...

That could really bite though...guess I'll need some sort of spellcraft to determine what the heck I'm being hit with....

Would someone explain how this works to me? I'm assuming the use of "free action" is misleading, and it should be "not an action", otherwise what's the point?!?! Also, when does one decide to reflect it? Can I decide to reflect after I fail my save? After I take damage? Before something? I...

By no means do I have a rules quote/page to back me up but.... I'd say you still need to do those things. If we treat turning kind of like a "save or die" spell (such as disintegration), then in, at least, the case for the lich, the phylactery still needs to be found and so on...

If you do any other moving in a round, you don't get a 5-foot step in addition.

I'm almost positive the feat only affects one class, not both. I could only be more sure if I had the book in front of me.

Any other opinions?

That's a good question...does an emenation work kind of like light (in that it can be blocked by being enclosed)? I think so. Turning is an emenation, and I'm fairly confident a wall would block the effect. Line of Effect and all that...

So you're an epic spellcaster. While fighting your arch-enemy, he zaps you with an energy drain effect (lose 2d4 levels, do not pass go). When you take a negative level, you lose a spell from your highest level spell slots. Question: Does this effect extend to the Epic Spell slots? Do we...

Silent Stone: These small stones fit in the palm of your hand and radiate a permant silence as per the spell by the same name. Caster Level: 3rd; Prerequisites: silence; Market Price: 10,000 gp Weight: 1 lb. Any thoughts? The "guideline" price is 12,000, but I made it 10K for a nice round...

Yes, evil Humans, Elves, Dwarves and so on are allowed into the city. No, it is not an oversight. Evil doesn't always mean "kill-rape-plunder-fight", it could be as simple as a dirty merchant or a petty theif. The wards are in place to protect against monsters, not other humanoid races that...

Yep, the divine caster can use miracle to duplicate permanency. The cleric must still follow the rules regarding the spell and spend the XP.
