[QUOTE="kreynolds, post: 1014873, member: 2829"] OK. I _must_ be doing something wrong here. Check this out. The target spell will have a casting time of 1 action, deal 10d6 points of fire damage in a 20-foot radius, allow a Reflex save for half damage, and have a range close to 800 feet. These would be the statistics of a normal 3rd-level fireball spell cast by a non-epic 10th-level caster. [CODE][color=white]Seed: Energy +19 Spell Factors: 1-action casting time +20 Increase range by 100% (x2=900 feet) +4 Change area to 20-foot radius +2 Spellcraft DC Total 45 Cost to Develop 405,000 GP + 16,200 XP[/color][/CODE] EDIT: Almost forgot. This isn't even a spread effect, just a burst. Either I'm doing something wrong (and I hope I am, and if I am, please let me know), or I've never realized just how crappy this system is. Also, its been a while since I've looked at epic spell rules, so...are the saves calculated the same? Is it [b]DC 10 + spell level (10) + caster modifier[/b]? I can't remember and I haven't had a chance to look it up. [/QUOTE]
