Epic Spell Crafting Question

[Otterscrubber]

One of the limitations on a spell to reduce the DC is to increase the casting time up to a max of 100 days. What are the limitations on this? Most people cant stay awake that long, much less be concentrating the whole time. Are you only casting 8 hours of the day or something? Is it treated like magic item creation?

Yeah, it's a hundred days of ritual casting type stuff, not 24-hours-a-day, but a series of steady workdays on the alchemical processes, or contemplation of the mysteries of the universe or something.

That is how I read it too.

The alternative is pretty ridculous, even for a fantasy game (although I could see hi-level monks staying awake for 100 days if necessary, but they don't cast spells).
