[QUOTE="RangerWickett, post: 355163, member: 63"] Well, it just mostly seemed to me that, after 20th level, characters don't advance very much at any given level. A 21st level wizard has, like, 2 more spells than a 20th level one. Every 2 levels, a wizard would have a major jump in power as he gained a new spell level, but that kinda dies down at epic levels. Mind you, I never looked closely at epic spells, so maybe I missed that one. However, you did make one error. Hero is a class just like fighter. All classes get, for free, the same BAB and save progression beyond 20th level. Like I said, I didn't really look too closely at the book, so I don't know whether epic feats should be closer to 4 HrPs or 8. However, if all a fighter is getting at those levels is the (free) BAB and saves, plus 1 feat, a few skill points, and 6 more hit points (11 as opposed to 5), that's not too much. Eh, like I said, I didn't pay too close to the ELH, so these are all kinda rough assumptions. It probably doesn't play out in reality. One thing I do know, though, is that at high levels, a large chunk of PC power comes from magic items, which to me is a brilliant shame. [/QUOTE]
