[QUOTE="Stormhound, post: 4351725, member: 22628"] (Why do people who aren't interested imagine that it's necessary to say so, instead of just shrugging and moving on? Reminds me of my wife, who believes that everyone is entitled to an opinion, so she makes sure the one they get is hers. Obviously, this isn't an option for everyone, but I figured that was implicitly assumed by being in the "House Rules" section.) Actually, I can turn that last comment on its ear. Given that 30th level is currently set up by the rules to be "the end" for characters, who've presumably worked very hard to get here and will now be retiring in some fashion, why would it be better to have that last level (29th to 30th) over and done with in two nights? (And if 27 is too many, how about 14 or 6?). I suppose it's a matter of philosophy. For some people, reaching the destination is the point of the journey; for others, it's all the things you see along the way. Unfortunately, unless WOTC releases a beyond-Epic-levels rulebook (what are the odds? :hmm:), reaching 30th level is not like reaching the theme park at the end of a long drive. Once you're there, you don't get to walk around and have fun...that character is done. So what's the rush? :confused: [/QUOTE]
