Perhaps giving him more useful feats (devestating and Overwhelming Criticl are useless when you've got a Vorpal Blade). Perhaps Spellcasting Harrier to make those spells a bit more difficult to cast? And then maybe Epic Weapon Specialization?TrueOn average the wizard will bypass Blink? How do you figure? Blink is a 50% miss chance. To better reflect the miss chance, divide the wizard's damage in half. In fact, to better reflect the damage dealt by both combatants you should calculate average damage dealt.Actually, if the fighter had just gotten dropped to 75 hit points in one round, wouldn't he use his Helm of Teleportation to escape? Even if he doesn't want to do that he could instead full attack.  All attacks hit (the last one would only miss on a 4 or less). He deals 5.5 + 5 (weapon) +6 (Spec. and Epic Spec.) + 13 (Strength) on each attack. Granted, that's only a total of 118 damage, not enough to killl the wizard. However, if he manages to crit with any of those attacks (a 80% probablity with 4 attacks) the wizard is dead.If the fighter is still there and the wizard's head is still attached.Again, if you insist on giving the wizards' foes your seemingly hampered intellect rather than the battle savvy a epic level combatant should have, your champions will win every time.</blockquote>
