Deities-epic and saves

[abri]

Just watching the few examples of deities and epic character that we have...
It seems they all have god-like saves (normal they're gods). On the other hand their spell casting stats doesn't seem to grow on the same scale.
Most of the gods I see wouldn't be able to affect their twin with a spell, saves DC beeing to low.
It get even worse when I look at the SR: how can Elmunckinster or a major god affect a demi-god? The SR are in the 40+ and I haven't seen anything with a caster level higher than 20.
SO anybody knows about new feats in the EPH or new abilities in deities that boost you caster level by several order or magnitude...
Otherwise it seems that fights between demi-gods wizards-sorcerer-cleric will be dull: Eh I'd like to see some epic fight between gods with my PC on one side or the other trying to help.
Ps: Is it me or is it weird that the beggar god just "happened" to become a god at L1?

Hi there!

Just watching the few examples of deities and epic character that we have...
It seems they all have god-like saves (normal they're gods). On the other hand their spell casting stats doesn't seem to grow on the same scale.

Saves and SR are generally about 20+ above what an equal deity could deal.

SO anybody knows about new feats in the EPH or new abilities in deities that boost you caster level by several order or magnitude...

You will want to pay special attention to Epic Level Magic.

I am sure there will be feats superior to Greater Spell Penetration and Greater Spell Focus. Not to mention Epic Items. Metamagic etc.

Otherwise it seems that fights between demi-gods wizards-sorcerer-cleric will be dull: Eh I'd like to see some epic fight between gods with my PC on one side or the other trying to help.

Spell DCs in the ELH will make deities wish they had better saves.

Ps: Is it me or is it weird that the beggar god just "happened" to become a god at L1?

Its like Frodo gaining the one ring.

Uhm think a better way to word it, Krusty mate, is Rastilin starting his assent into godhood. Frodo just lugged the freaking thing! He wasn't a god, just had a godlike artifact.
