[QUOTE="Jemal, post: 4231451, member: 9026"] Arabesu - Couple things. First, he's allready said no to someone else who asked about spending the 5-million on 2 weapons (or on a double weapon). I'd suggest investing your 5 mil into a str booster if you're a melee fighter. That's a sweet str boost.(+24=5,760,000GP) :) As far as the rest of your equipment, I'd drop the Spell storing/Spell turning (Albedo has made a point of emphasizing the 'FIGHT, not SPELL' portion of this campaign) and changing that ring to just a Major Universal Elemental Resistance(216,000GP). This would also allow you to save the money you spent buying resistance items on various body slots. Thematically, balance-wise, and so forth I personally despise Third Eye Conceal and Weaponbreaking and any character that uses them, but I can't come up with a good reason numerically NOT to take them *grumble* Ioun stones at Epic have always seemed like a gamble to me. On the one hand they can be nice bonuses. On the other, any epic character that decides to can destroy them all with ease. Though if they do that they're not attacking you, I suppose. *shrug* When I see an opponent with them, I think to myself "Hey, good place to aim those lower-end iterative attacks that need to roll a 20 to hit the character..." Monk's Belt - This is hotly debated, I'm not sure what Albedo's takeon it is so far as this campaign goes, but most sane DM's don't allow it to add Wis to AC. Third - Don't be intimidated by other characters, just make what you want and play it. There's no "AC requirement". Epic play usually devolves into one of two things (IMO) - They need a 1 to miss, or they need a 20 to hit. All buffing your AC does if you're in the first category is lower the amount by which they can power attack. *EDIT : Nevermind, I see by your 80 AC that you've gotten over it *L* Also, I might've missed it the first time you asked him, but where's Weretouched Master from?
