[QUOTE="dante58701, post: 4488867, member: 40336"] The 30-Headed Dragon you're referring to is an extreme case. As is a Pyroclastic Dragon. Not to mention, I never said anything about dragons in the first place. I'm talking about a 3-Faced, 6-Armed, 6-Legged Humanoid with 3 eyes on each face. I fail to see how that feat would break the system, when it's prerequisites are insanely difficult to meet in the first place. My humanoid (Outsider of course) would have to have an Dexterity and Intelligence of 30 for Multi-Faced/Multi-Headed Mastery to apply to both Extra Heads. He would also have to take it twice. I could potentially see it as a Divine Ability, rather than a feat, but I desperately need it to function exactly as it does for the flavor of the deity I'm trying to build. I would increase the Dexterity and Intelligence prerequisites to 35+ each +5/Extra Face/Head in that case. I can't see diminishing the Breath [Effect]'s damage output, but I can see taking Breath [Effect] individually for each face. Finally, we are talking about deities and epic creatures anyways. That feat, as written is an Epic feat. Non-epic characters should not be fighting Epic characters and last time I checked any 30-Headed Dragon would be immediately set upon by one, if not more than one deity anyways (who I doubt would be so stupid as to allow it to use it's breath weapons in the first place). Extra Face/Head is a divine ability under the Abnormality ability. I don't use the Multi-headed creature template as it's both out-dated and broken. Without the multi-faced/multi-headed creature template the Multi-Faced/Headed Mastery feat would be difficult to abuse. I fail to see how the feat is even broken considering extra heads already grant you a standard action of one extra spell or spell-like ability. How is that any different from using a breath weapon when many spells can easily mimic or even surpass breath weapons. In the case of a Hecaton, you are forgetting that those heads are all vestigial (cosmetic) and not functional. [/QUOTE]
