I would expect him to die around (averagely) the 20th time it is hit by a monster.

I'd expect really, really nice boots.

Perfect hair.

 

[Funeris]

Sphincter control issues.

Dungeons and Dragonball Z style play. The PCs have to hold back to avoid destroying planets, Overdieties are now bystanders & the game should have already ended a LONG time ago

 

[Dakkareth]

Just one more blood stain on the streets of Sigil ...

 

[Crothian]

the end of a very long campaign

 

[Slife]

A half-decent chance to beat Nethack.

 

[Bartmanhomer]

Powerful Characthers with fame and worship!

A GM and/or player with no sense of scale? Somebody performing a futile rules exercise in statting up a character that might be able to take on an entire plane of existence at once.

Y'know, maybe 2e had some right ideas, like mortal progression stopping at 30th level (DM's Option: High Level Campaigns & Dragon Kings) and gods only being able to go to 40th level (Faith & Avatars/Powers & Pantheons/Demihuman Deities).

Maybe given how multiclassing works in 3e increase that to 40th level (for mortals), but still, a hard limit on progression seems like it might fit for my views on D&D, there comes a point where you really do hit the limit of what really are the limits of mortal capacity, a point where you reallly have pushed the mortal body and mind to its limits and only some sort of transcendental experience (like divine ascention) lets you level up any further instead of sticking your "XP straw" into yet another monster and sucking out it's valuable XP like a gamer gulping down mountain dew.

Really, really kick-ass farming.

Commoner 20 / Exemplar 980 focused on Profession (Farmer) all the way. Mm hmm.
