[QUOTE="da chicken, post: 309583, member: 5634"] And we know that a +6 enhancment to an ability is not epic. Isn't that what I [i]just[/i] said? Why are you still arguing? What do you still not understand? [B][/B] I didn't read all of KaeYoss's post. The first part was talking about weapon enhancments and the second part is about HEL Pit Fiend's epic spell. I didn't think those were relevant, so I skipped most of the third part that [i]was[/i] relevant. Note he also stated, "Unlike with weapon bonuses, I don't mind having non-epic effects increase your ability scores by more than 6, as it is already possible." That statement is in line with my [poorly worded] argument. [B][/B] That was a tangent argument from the issue I thought [i]you[/i] brought up. I apologise for it's ambiguous nature as well, if you think it is necessary. :rolleyes: [B][/B] Because it wasn't obvious to me what you were arguing about. I (foolishly, apparently) thought that because the topic of the thread was [b]Epic Greater Magic Weapon[/b] that it would be assumed i was talking about weapon enhancments. I think that's a reasonable assumption, and I don't understand why you are so adamantly opposed to saying "oh, I misunderstood." [B][/B] [i]Because the topic wasn't everything!!![/i] Withing the context of the thread, it is a perfectly reasonable statement. Do I have to say we're talking about 3E D&D, too? No, that's the general topic. I said the statement shouldn't be interpreted as a blanket statement. Why do you continue to argue that it [i]should[/i]? [B][/B] :confused: Huh? [i]Belt of giant strength +6[/i]? That's core. I certainly hope you're using the core books. Shoot, even the [i]headband of perfection[/i] (+6 Str, +6 Dex, +6 Wis) is non-epic. [B][/B] But... :confused: the topic was about weapons enhancments. Your argument was off topic.... That's why it didn't matter to my argument (or me) because your argument had nothing to do with mine. [B][/B] No, you misinterpreted my original post. You seem to think that is patently impossible. I agree it was poorly worded, but try to look at it from my side: Me: +6 weapon enhancments should be kept epic. You: But you can get epic ability enhancements non-epic. Me: So? [B][/B] Sure, fine, you win. :rolleyes: You can have epic ability bonuses from non-epic spells. Too bad that isn't what [i]I[/i] was talking about in my first post, despite the fact that I used ambiguous language. [/QUOTE]
