How to make a 100th level character and other obsurd junk.

[Lobo Lurker]

I suppose that at that level you could go to some other prime material plane and save it from say... an evil elder god and his godlings AFTER they've managed to win the final battle between good & evil. Imagine Middle Earth after the Lord of the Rings... except that Sauron won.

That's a mildly plausible adventure for such high-level heroes.

EDIT: I was just re-reading this when I thought... isn't that the Midnight Campaign Setting?

IMC Thrin fought many world-saving battles across the Multiverse, against enemy gods as well as monsters & mortals.

Hey all!

A few points about the above 100th-level character.

- He would be much better off with Improved Toughness rather than Epic Toughness!

- Armor Skin doesn't stack with Amulet of Natural Armour, you might be better with the Magic Item in this case?

- Make sure he bolsters his weak saves with Epic Iron Will, Epic Lightning Reflexes, Iron Will and Lightning Reflexes.

- Once you have all the individual feats worked out (ie. those that don't stack) take the rest of the feat slots and divide them evenly over stackable feats like Damage Reduction, Fast Healing, Great Strength, Epic Prowess, Improved Toughness.

Well, he ewas just a test, and by no means done
He has +20 from the natural armor feat, not bad. I could have given him an amulet of natural armor +70, but that would just get hit by Mords or other spells and items that would strip you of magic.

Yes, but we might not allow Improved Toughness (I don't in my campaign) based on what books we allow.

- Armor Skin doesn't stack with Amulet of Natural Armour, you might be better with the Magic Item in this case?

Silly Craig, of course they both apply... the feat imnproves the creature's underlying natural armor, and the amulet applies an enhancement to the natural armor. In 3.0 it might not have worked, but in 3.5 it certainly does.

- Once you have all the individual feats worked out (ie. those that don't stack) take the rest of the feat slots and divide them evenly over stackable feats like Damage Reduction, Fast Healing, Great Strength, Epic Prowess, Improved Toughness.

I wouldn't think that we'd have that many feats left over, but I'm sure we'll keep that in mind in case we do. I mean, unless we're playing a fighter I'd expect fewer than 65 epic feats each.

In the interest of getting everyone into one page and contributing to one thread, I have started a new thread. I am glad that you have made a 100th level guy, but please come over to this thread and join us. It is for serious inquiries only. While I love the fun comments from everyone, I really want to work this 100th level thing out and need dedicated people. Please, everyone who is interested, come here:

[Mustrum_Ridcully]

Just for the fun of it, I tried to roll up a Arcana Evolved character (Magister25, Greenbond25, Akashic25, Unfettered 25) - there are no AE epic rules, but I tried to come close to it as possible. I think I could have handwaved a lot of the problems with epic caster level and spells, but when it came to buying equipment, I finally gave up.
250,000,000 gp is a hell of a lot of money, and worse, it creates absolute horrible results.
A Headband of Intellect +100 costs 100.000.000 gp - fine, grants me a +50 bonus to my spell saving throws (meaning my spells effectively have a DC of half my character level +10+spell level). )
But then, I wondered about my constitution and dexterity scores - and bought +50 enhancements (granting +25 to AC and 2.500 extra hp).
Then I was worried about my saves, and finally I came to the conclusion - that´s plain madness, I must stop now.

I wish you a lot of fun with this exercise, but I am afraid D&D at level 100 (and probably a lot earlier) simply breaks down....

100 lvl gold ?

Here is truest amount of PC gold for 100 lvl: 4,600,000,000 gp

From DF: http://dicefreaks.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=87

Also I would follow such guidelines to avoid absurditiy: Items can't exceed CL 100. Who would build those powerful items for 100 lvl party ? Overgod they bullied into service ?
IMO it is absolutely reasonable to state that PCs have to make their bling on their own.
Thus weapons would have maximum of +33, Stat enchancers would have maximum of +32 and so on.

Also, IMO it is safest to have saves as high as Your level. At least primary save.
AC ... for fighters 100 lvl should be around 150. Wizard would have Epic Nasty Spells of Instant Killing for protection.

Remaining cash Wizards can spit out on Epic Spells.

P.S. Fighter would do good with equipping himself with (slotless) integrated magic items that would serve as artifical SLAs. Some buff spells/Psionic powers would make him evenly dangerous to even Epic magicians. Also I would think if Ring of Wish/at will isn't a good option.

At this level such "little thing" would help our fighter to look a bit more godlike.

By my calculations you should allow each character a maximum of four artifacts/epic items.

If the item is bonus squared x 10,000 then divide the characters ECL by 2.8 to determine the total enchantment bonus.

e.g. A 100th-level Fighter may have a +35 weapon.

If the item is bonus squared x 20,000 then divide the characters ECL by 2 to determine the total enchantment bonus.

e.g. A 100th-level Fighter might have a +50 shield.

Incidently I have taken it upon myself to convert Throne of Bloodstone for 100th-level characters. Although its not yet finished...
