[QUOTE="Gez, post: 1218085, member: 1328"] That would be a bit clunky. From a design point of view, I'm already upset with the plethora of Epic This feats who are merely an improved version of another feat. Epic skills? By disconnection the regular skill and its epic variant, you open the doors to all sorts of weird stuff. Like a rogue 27, with 30 ranks in Epic Balance and 5 in Mundane Balance. As a result, he would have an easier way walking on clouds than walking on a tightrope. To prevent this, you may tie Epic Skills with Mundane Skills. Your rank in an Epic Skill cannot be greater than in a mundane skill. Congratulations, you're just complicating the game by introducing new weird and unecessary rules. If you really think it is possible to be Level 25+ and still totally mundane, absolutely free of the slightiest hint at anything vaguely supernatural, here's how you could do it: Mark skill uses as Extraordinary, Supernatural, and Spell-Like. Then, feats or class abilities would unlock the Su and Sp uses for the skills; in the same way Animal Empathy is a use of Handle Animals that require a class ability. [/QUOTE]
