Epic D&D 3.5: The Eye of Profane Truth [full]

Voidrazor,

You may want to reconsider automatic quicken spell. The last published source of it was the complete arcane and in there it was eviscerated to only be one level at a time (first feat gives you 0 and 1, second feat gives you 2 and so on)

The last published source is usually considered the official one.

Improved metamagic it is then. Hmm, now I'm tempted to try to sqeeze in Twin Spell.


Are Flaws allowed?

Rules are pretty straight forward (well to me anyway). What is left behind (+2 Quarterstaff), is not prorated based on charge, everything else is. It may be cheaper than buying the +2 luck bonus to saves and AC (10,000 for +2 luck bonus to AC, 8,000 for +2 luck bonus to saves), but not by much (1 charge would be 19,900). We all know that somethings are cheaper than others (say the Rod of Epic Splendor which giving a +8 bonus to cha should at least cost 640,000gp).

Even if you said +18,000 until the charges were expended, it just seems, well, nit picky, particularly when Rkhet is actively encouraging rules "maximization." I was not sure that he was aware of the rules, so I was making sure that he knew I wasn't just pulling them out of my ear.

I know the rules are there. I just don't like them very much.

The primary concern would be why your staff would be half-charged when it has just been created.

Also, it falls under the 'no customized items' rule.

Lastly:

I'm almost done. Hopefully I'll have the final posted tomorrow.

Wrahn: How are you figuring the cost for that scroll of permanent superior resistance? The DMG is confusing me when I try looking at it, because there's a few other spells I'm interested in having set permanently on myself, but I'm either not understanding the formula, or not understanding how exactly you're coming up with your total gp cost for the scroll.
 

The price of the permanency scroll is based on the formula given in DMG, what you may not be getting is the minimum level set by Savage Species on page 60 (minimum level 17, 2,500xp)
so

17 (caster level) x 5 (Permanency spell level) x 25 (multiplier for spells on scrolls) = 2,125
+ 2,500 (XP cost) x 5 (multiplier for XP cost) = 12,500
= 14,625
 



Wrahn: I hate to rain on your munchkin parade, but I thought I'd mention something I noticed on your character sheet. On your character sheet you've noted that you used the Divine Metamagic feat to make 'Greater Visage of Diety' persistant, however Divine Metamagic can only be used on Divine spells, while the Arcane Disciple (Competition Domain) feat changes the divine spells from the selected domain into arcane spells.

Does this change affect those divine spells?

This seem like a grey area to me i.e. when does a spell cease being divine and become arcane.

I'm awake, I'm awake.

Nice catch on the Arcane Disciple. I could have sworn those spells stay Divine. Wrahn, you'll need to change things again.

Azaar: the Spellsword bonus feat won't grant you an epic feat. No nonepic class ever grants an epic feat.

You still haven't picked all your prepared spells. do it.

LR: where is your equipment list?

Nephtys: explain the competence and luck bonus to AC.
 

I'm pretty close to the finishing touches on mine. There are still a bunch of spells to pick and favored forms, but the basics are done. I'll put together a background soon as well. The gist of the story will be that Xhelle mistakenly believes that it (neither he nor she but neuter) has purged itself of Naramyr's corruption via metamorphic abilities. But it sees cooperation with the Perfect's other heralds as the best means towards achieving its own ambitions.

Regarding issues of crunchiness, please let me know if using the Transmogrifist's Infinite Variety ability to grab the Arcane Ooze's resistance to magic is allowable. Since Rod of Absorption is out, it may be a problem.
