[QUOTE="Garthanos, post: 8391734, member: 82504"] This is some of the text from the 5e DMG "Characters who reach 20th level have attained the pinnacle of mortal achievement. Their deeds are recorded in the annals of history and recounted by bards for centuries.[B] Their ultimate destinies come to pass.[/B] A cleric might be taken up into the heavens to serve as a god's right hand. A warlock could become a patron to other warlocks. Perhaps a wizard unlocks the secret to immortality (or undeath) and spends eons exploring the farthest reaches of the multiverse. A druid might become one with the land, transforming into a nature spirit of a particular place or an aspect of the wild. " This in my opinion demonstrates that the 5e final tier is very much intended to be the same as the 4e Epic Tier (where you seek and only achieve your final destiny at 30th level in 4e and 20th in 5e). The references to a character becoming and right hand of a god or the "[B]Chosen[/B]" from 4e or a nature spirit "[B]World Serpent's Tooth[/B]" and others are virtually identical to[B] 4e Epic Destinies[/B]. 5e 20th level is achieving it 4e 20th level is on the road to and achieved at 30th. They use the word Epic to describe something after you achieve the final destiny in 5e and the path which is described as Epic in 4e. [/QUOTE]
