Our long-running campaign started at level 1 and went epic a few months back.How long did you play? What level did you start and end? Still playing. We've been epic for oh, three to six months I think.What did you think? It's definitely different, and yet not. When you look at a level 30 party it seems like a huge difference, but you could say the same about a level 5 party versus a level 18 party. I think it's deceptive and looks bigger than it is when you grow into it exp point by exp point. It is a little rougher on the DM to balance good encounters however. Enc 1: Disjunction: It's something we don't do. Like nuclear weapons, it's something neither the DM nor the players want to deal with, and it's a gentlemen's agreement to not touch it. Enc 2: Ok. Defenses are a good thing, and while shaving off 15 damage will help, many monsters will blow through that. Enc 3: I wouldn't let a limited wish create a permanent object but that's me. Enc 4: I can't see the lich template right now, but as undead I would assume it can't take critical hits. I also think it's beyond the power of a wish, at least as a permanent change. On the other hand as a temporary one, great - not really seeing a problem with the smart use of a wish. We used a miracle recently to make everyone's weapons "ghost touch" for a while.</blockquote>
