I read Find Familiar and it actually says, "you can see through your familiar's eyes and hear what it hears until the start of your next turn" so that makes it a lot more difficult to do. Here's another question then. Say you are using Arcane Eye (a concentration spell) to spy on enemies a few...

When facing enemy casters, readying a spell beforehand is a good way to avoid a counterspell. You could always just cast the spell as normal and counterspell their counterspell, or stay out of range, but I am just toying with possible anti-caster strategies from a wizard's perspective here...

Hey guys, I had a few things that I needed clarified for my wizard. The main confusion I am having comes from when a spell says something along the lines of, "... A place you can see". Here are two examples; Misty step - "Briefly surrounded by silvery mist, you teleport up to 30 feet to an...

Any idea what the "Phantom of Terror" and "Phantom of Bliss" are going to do for the Elder Spell: Illusion?

Hey guys. So our party of 3 level 7s is fighting a Vampire Warrior, and my wizard recently got charmed. We stopped the session there, and I have been thinking of ways to deal with this from an in character point of view. Do I have to forsake my allies and fight for the vampire, or do I merely...

Okay thanks, that's awesome!

I assume for those DPR calculations, you are assuming they use their Full Attack legendary action? That's the only way I see for Bane to get 6 attacks, and Garl doesn't have the Full Attack legendary action so wouldn't he be limited at 4 melee attacks per round? He only has the Attack legendary...

Bounded accuracy being the idea that even after level 20, a PCs armor class doesn't really improve massively? Good point. So by 2nd drafts do you mean looking over each creature and tweaking them? Because for instance there seems to be big power differences between Garl and Bane, despite not a...

No big deal! Perhaps epic armor should give some form of Damage Reduction, rather than just adding AC? Since you say in your epic weapons area that they are made from "harder, heavier materials"

How exactly do you have epic armor working at the moment? I notice a lot of gods have things like "+3 Epic Breastplates" but no explanation of what that entails.

Interesting to know, I look forward to the second draft. Since characters will be not leveling past 20 and will instead gain quintessence, will you eventually have a chart for what amount of quintessence equals a certain "level"? For example, your character needs to have "20 quintessence" to be...

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...

Just a question, but wouldn't a creature with a strength of 40 and an appropriate epic great sword be doing 122d6 as per your Epic Weapon chart in the Epic Character thread? Just wondering, because that feels like it'd kill even a level 40 character in almost no time at all. Or am I just...

Just an idea, but perhaps each category of deity should have three ranks? Like you have Lesser, Intermediate and Greater Deities, and then have Lesser/Intermediate/Great "power levels" within those three groups. So you could have a deity who, in the Lesser Group, sits in the middle of the pack...

That sounds like a really good idea. Divine Ranks do feel like something that's missing. I'd recommend checking out the old Deities and Demigods book from 3.5 How did you decide on HP for the deities? It seems to mostly be their HD + 9 x their HD number and then + their constitution modifier x...

Alright, thanks for the info! I am keeping a close eye on both this and your epic character thread. Can't wait to see what you come up with next! Although I'd like to ask, do you calculate the stats by adding the Epic Bonus on top of everything? For example if you have a CR 40 deity with a +15...

This is probably a stupid question, but how do you get the total AC values for the deities? Is it manual addition, or do you pick a number that feels right?
