[QUOTE="Shroomy, post: 4937831, member: 32739"] Technically, it comes out on Monday, but if you've figured out how to get the paragon article early, then you can do the same thing for the epic article. Its four pages and contains the assassin's epic powers (many of which are very cool) and an epic destiny. There are no epic feats, multi-classing feats, or ki foci. Personally, I'm not too concerned with the lack of epic feats, as many classes didn't get any class specific epic feats until their respective power books came out, but the lack of a MC feat is an obvious mistake. There are no ki foci, but since an assassin can use magic weapons as implements, this isn't too bad unless you want to take the shadowblade PP, which pretty much requires it if you want your key PP feature to work properly. However, I have a sneaking suspcion that ki foci will also be used by monks and that they will appear in the PHB3, meaning that the October PHB3 preview will be the ki foci, which means that the CB will be updated with both the class and its implements. If my speculations are correct, then I hope WotC announces it sooner rather than later. That said, I think that WotC should do another article (perhaps an Essentials article) that details the MC feat, adds racial feats for drow, changeling, and shadar-kai, and introduces some epic feats.
