[QUOTE="Pax, post: 806748, member: 6875"] The Ring and the Boots work fine together. Being an 8th-level Monk helps too. As does being a Barbarian (even, at the same time). With a speed of 50(monk) +10(barbarian), all doubled (boots) ... you have a 120 move. That means, all your jump check results are quadrupled. Now, as for skill: Maximum ranks (+12) Strength 14, and Raging for Strength 18 (+4) 5+ ranks in Tumble (+2) Ring of Jumping (+30) That's a +48, with a non-stellar Strength score no less (a Half-Dragon/Half-Orc with the same roll would have a 24 strength, raging for 28, for +5 MORE, or, a +53 jump check). With that, a running broad jump would be: Roll 1 (minimum) = 49, for 44 feet base, multiplies to [b]176 feet.[/b] (or 201 feet, with Run) Roll 10 (average) = 58, for 53 feet base, multiplies to [b]212 feet.[/b] (or 254 feet, with Run) Roll 20 (maximum) = 68, for 63 feet base, multiplies to [b]252 feet.[/b] (or 302 feet, with Run) Now, get truly ludicrous ... lose the Boots (you won't need them). 27th level Monk, moving 120 feet. 30 ranks of skill, +10 from Epic Skill Focus (Jump), +30 for the ring, say +10 more for heavily buffed Strength ... 30 ranks of Tumble is a +4 synergy bonus ... that's a Jump of +84, and all resutls still quadrupled: Roll 1 (minimum) = 85, for 80 feet base, multiplies to [b]320 feet.[/b] (or 384 feet, with Run) Roll 10 (average) = 94, for 89 feet base, multiplies to [b]356 feet.[/b] (or 427 feet, with Run) Roll 20 (maximum) = 104, for 99 feet base, multiplies to [b]396 feet.[/b] (or 475 feet, with Run) And that's [b]without[/b] going the munchkin route of "milk every bonus type in sight" ... :D [/QUOTE]
