    Monte Ranger: Epic Progressions

    Looks fine to me. I don't think it needs any "custom" feats, as it can just use the PHB/ELH ranger custom feats.

    Any Epic People out there???

    No, but I'd like to! There weren't any standard rules for 20+ play (except maybe the FRCS guidelines), but since I've been reading the book, I'd definitely like to try running or playing an epic game. In my last campaign, we ended around 14th level (had one character since 1st level). I'm...

    How (many ways) to describe "feint"?

    Ever see any of the "Back to the Future" movies? "Look, there's the Goodyear blimp!" "Hey, what's that!?!?" Anyway, the main character (Marty, played by Michael J Fox) does that through the trilogy. Basically his signature feint move....

    Taking Epic feats at non-epic levels

    The really powerful Epic feats all have requirements of (roughly) a stat of 25 (some have 21). First a character has to get an ability score that high, then he/she can take the epic feats. Allowing a character to raise stats earlier allows that character to take the powerful epic feats sooner.

    Epic Spell Resistance Items

    Then when do you apply the x10? I thought it was whenever the item qualified as "epic"?

    Epic Seed Question

    Looks like a pretty good motivation to go adventuring. (In some murky dungeon) Must....further....arcane...research.... So gimme yer gold, you fiend!

    Harm Changes

    Not a bad idea. I might have to try something similar in my next campaign. Of course with epic levels, it just keeps scaling. :)

    Iconic Hottie!

    And an excellent job you did! Here's the thread if anyone is interested: http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=19719&perpage=40&pagenumber=1

    Harm Changes

    I used a Will save for half of current hit points. Others use Will or Fort save or suffer (IIRC) 4d8 + caster level (max 20). Other variants?

    Taking Epic feats at non-epic levels

    Heh, I can see it now. Low level characters taking the Great <ability> feats and bumping up their stats....

    Epic Spell Resistance Items

    Personally I think they mispriced that item. IIRC, a mantle of spell resistance 32 costs 200K gp. So one of 40 (if and only if we assumed the DMG rules scaled) would cost 280,000. However, since the cost is 200K+, we use epic rules, and instead of multiplying the above by 10, they added 10K...

    Most wanted (spells)

    Bull's Strength, Endurance, Searing light, blade barrier, haste, and of couse the cure spells.

    Iconic Hottie!

    Um, well, I didn't know (who did she take?). No harm in paying a lady a compliment.... Oh, I'm crushed! The noble paladin did not spell my name correctly! (crest-fallen look) Or maybe she is just flirting with me....(renewed hope!) So is that a "no" on the squire position? :D (Edit: By...

    Iconic Hottie!

    Claudio's drawing of Alhandra is really good, IMO. Wonder if she is looking for an eager squire.....

    What should I do with PC prisoners?

    Unless the orcs have a reason to be "nice" (fear of retribution), then the PCs should be done for. I've only done one "capture" scenario. The goal of the attackers was to capture the PCs. The party, on an average day, could have easily wiped the floor with their attackers. However, the...

    PROOF that Empower Spell should not be allowed to stack with itself!

    What was wrong with my calculations? And there are at least a few mistakes with this "combat". If we are going all out, lead with a disjunction, use a quickened haste, *then* hit the fighter with your bang spell.... Also, if the fighter activates his boots and is already within melee range...

    Quick (heh heh) question about Quickdraw

    Not unless you can put away and take out your bow and sword as free actions (and I don't know of a feat that allows sheathing as a free action).

    (ELH) Metamagic feat idea...

    I'd go higher than 6. Intensify is only 7 levels (maximize and double!). I'm leaning toward 8+ myself.

    PROOF that Empower Spell should not be allowed to stack with itself!

    Can always lead with a quickened disjunction (I'd be surprised if Epic characters even have many magic items). While Horrid Wilting would be turned, Meteor Swarm would not be. I'm still leaning toward "empower is ok". I'm even leaning a little toward IMM is ok as well. I had to *really*...

    PROOF that Empower Spell should not be allowed to stack with itself!

    Do you really think anyone is going to take Epic Toughness? I created a Level 50 dwarven fighter and he ended up with roughly 750 hitpoints and could do some serious melee damage. The dwarf also took several Great Constitution feats, which helped his Con get up to 26 (admittedly, no magic...
