Anyone else think epic rules still need some help?

[QUOTE="ciaran00, post: 1265492, member: 12493"] What if casters had an "epic spell DC bonus" every three levels or so? This takes the 20th level ratios and advances them as "poor" saves... This is assuming that we don't progress to ridiculous spell level heights. Anyone else think that the 0-9 levels should be scaled instead of introducing 10+ level mechanic which will never get any real attention in terms of creative spells? Cancelling magic is still cancelling magic, and damage is still damage..... Of course, the point is to have a simple fix, instead of a rework. Looking forward to more opinions on the matter... Here's something I don't understand... why does a Fi 20/Wiz 20 have 4 attacks and a superior BAB with the same number of spells and feats and all that whereas a Wiz 20/Fi 20 has half as many attacks, and 66% the BAB "plus"... everything else being equal... does this make sense to any of you? The same goes for saves for a Monk 20/Class 20 vs. a Class 20/Monk 20. They're both monks, aren't they? What's worse is that the second guy is STILL a monk but he's LESS of a monk than the guy who is no longer one. Seems to me that they never really fixed the problem of 2nd edition dual-classing :( ciaran [/QUOTE]
