SorO_Lost:
I'm using a discussion thread else where so please don't post here.

The boards are having a special character related error, Stuff such as the em-dash, macrons, or the old SMF's replacement apostrophe (not the one on your quote key) that shows up on google cached pages will truncate the board's code. Because of this, and format changes, consider things Work In Progress (wip).

Color Coding: Unlike Handbooks designed to advise you on good or bad choices, this is more of a data entry with some minor comments. Color coding is used for the 2nd party sources, blue for Dragon Magazine, green for Dragonlance's supplements, and other colors as needed.

Power Point Tricks
(click to show/hide)Power Point Recovery (via cost-reduced Bestow Power)
By reducing Bestow Power's cost such as Metapower(linked power), the Torc of Preservation (beware the MiC nerfed it), Earth Power, or pretty any of the like you can gain more PP than you spent. You can effectively gain more PP then spent creating a temporary pool of PP to Manifest higher level powers from.

Power Point Recovery (via Mindfeeder)
The original Mindfeeder(SRD) is broken as hell and the MiC's version didn't hit it with the nerf bat hard enough. When you score a critical hit you gain 1PP per 15 damage dealt. So what you do is Manifest the Power called Larval Flayers (CPsi, pg91), giving you 1d3 creatures for 3pp that you can easily nonlethally beat into submission. Then you Coup Degrace with an x4 critical weapon, anything over 45 damage per Manifesting is a net gain. So this is a second way to basically spend a tiny amount of PP to set up a infinite out-of-combat pool but unlike Bestow Power it doesn't require Feats, just one item.

Dweomer Of Transference (more like lots of pp for little gp)
Allows you to convert your spells into power points, SLAs should count so UMD a Wand for 420gp/use and combine with a Legacy Item's At-Wills. :D

Trigger Power
Less of a trick and more of an intended trait, through it's unupdated 3.0 material. You take Inner Strength for +1pp per day to meet the prerequisite of Trigger Power and it requires an incompatible 3.5 Feat as well. Then this Feat lets you choose any Power up to the 3rd level and attempt to Manifest it, optionally fully Augmented depending on the DM's ruling since 3.0 Powers didn't have Augmentation, for free with a successful Ability Check. This allows you to spam your favorite power over and over again, including Bestow Power to just grant your self infinite power points all day.

Mental Pinnacle
After the last few, this one will seem pretty weak. But you can trade a 6th level Spell Slot for (CL*3)PP. So for 26,400gp you can own a Minor Schema that grants +33PP (about 800gp/pp). It's cost efficiency is the same if you wish to pay 48,000gp for the CL20 version as well.

Psionic Tattoos
In a 3.0 Mind's Eye Article called Getting Wired they introduced a number of Psionic Tattoo expansions. For 1,750gp you can add Capacitor & Transducer to a Tattoo of Bestow Power, once used it will siphon 1pp from you per day until the Tattoo has enough points to Manifest the power again instead of dissappearing and you can spend PP in a 2:1 ratio to recharge it. It's more of a PP storage method than infinite recovery to use the night before but it can help set things up.

Archpsion
Another 3.0 (3.5 doesn't do the best job of providing supplements for psionics) Mind's Eye article and more of a pp gain than loop, but any way you want to slice it this psionic version of the Archmage trades 11p for Innate Psionics and Psi-Likes are Manifested as if you had spent your full ML in PP on it. Larval Flayers for example at lv20 creates 1d3+8 creatures twice a day to beat into a pulp.

Psionics is sooooo broken!
Actually it's the point system. UA introduced a Spell Point system and in it a Twinned Mage’s Lucubration consumes 19sp abd repreparing two 5th level spells is worth 18sp, so just like Bestow Power all you need to do it reduce the cost of the Metamagic Feat. There is also an officially suggested variant called Vitalizing that allows a Spellcaster to regain 1/3 of their Spell Points after an hour of rest and begs for Ray of Resurgence (FR:LEoF) considerations, 3sp to instantly recover Fatigued so should +33% SP be granted? How about Spell Storing Arrows? Explosive Runes? Fire Shurikens? Yes, magic is borked too.

--- Quote from: Jaerom Darkwind ---Okay, this is the first draft of an FAQ for the epic boards. It's by no means complete, but I think it is useful even as is. I'll add more answers as people bring up questions I may have missed.

The 3.0 Epic FAQ

When is my character considered epic?
Okay, this is a complicated question. Being epic comes in stages, like so:
When your ECL reaches 21, you begin using epic experience tables and epic wealth guidelines.
When you have 21 total HD, you may begin gaining epic feats.
When you have 21 character levels, you begin using the epic base attack bonus and save progressions. Note that racial HD are not included in this calculation--they do not use epic attack and save progressions.
When you have 21 levels in a particular class, you begin using the appropriate epic class progression.
When you have 20 total HD, including 10 levels in a prestige class, you may begin gaining epic levels in that prestige class.
When the Epic Level Handbook makes statements like "[class] does not [class ability] after 20th level," they are referring to your 20th class level, not your 20th character level. Specific examples of this are spells per day for spellcasters, and unarmed damage for monks.

When is my weapon considered epic?
A weapon is considered epic for the purpose of defeating damage reduction X/epic only if it has a +6 enhancement bonus or higher. A weapon with an effective enhancement bonus of +6 against certain monsters (such as a +4 aberration bane longsword against aberrations) also defeats this type of damage reduction. However, any weapon with more than a +10 total bonus, or an ability with an effective bonus of more than +5, uses epic pricing charts.

Where can I find the epic progression for the ____________?
Check the Compendium of Official Epic Material, in the Important Epic Threads Index at the top of the forum. If it's not listed there, it hasn't been published anywhere by WotC. In that case, you'll have to make one yourself, though many members here would be more than happy to help you. Work that's already been done can be found in the Compendium of Unofficial Epic Material.

Since the most common question deals with classes that advance two spellcasting progressions at once, such as the mystic theurge, true necromancer, and so forth, I'll deal with them specifically here. There are two schools of thought on these classes.

The official progression from Wizards of the Coast for the mystic theurge grants increases to a single caster level per level, alternating back and forth, and one bonus feat every six levels. Most agree, however, that this is vastly underpowered. Were you to use this caster level progression, bonus feats should be granted every two or three levels.

The progression that is generally favored by the epic community grants caster level increases to both classes every level, and bonus feats every 6 levels.

Where can I find epic progressions for classes with less than 10 levels, like the Archmage?

--- Quote from: Epic Level Handbook ---
These rules allow you to go beyond the normal level limit in a prestige class, but only if it is a ten-level class. Why can't you add levels to a prestige class with fewer than ten levels?

It's Too Easy: Maxing out a ten-level prestige class takes a lot of time and effort, detracting significantly from your pursuit of the Player's Handbook classes. When you max out a five level class, on the other hand, you haven't taken more than a short detour from your main class or classes.

It's Not Significant Enough: Characters with ten levels in the blackguard prestige class undoubtedly think of themselves as blackguards, regardless of the fact that they also have ten levels in one or more other classes. If you've taken fewer than ten levels in a prestige class, those levels represent a smaller fraction of your character's identity.

It's Hard to Build an Epic Progression: With only a few levels to guide you, it's hard to determine what an appropriate progression of class features would be for the class. The rate of improvement of a special ability might be too fast to extrapolate over an infinite number of levels, or there might simply be too few class features to build a unique epic progression.

That said, if your DM wants to allow a character to gain epic levels in a prestige class with fewer than ten levels in its progression, that's okay. Work together with your DM to create an epic progression for the class.

I'm sitting here looking at my books, and I can't help noticing that the Epic Spellcasting system seems very flawed and abusable. How broken is it, really?
At first glance, pretty darn broken. The number of possible abuses are infinite, especially with the newest seeds (mythal and shadow). However, the system includes a failsafe that makes it perfectly balanced--requiring DM approval for every spell. As long as the DM is an intelligent, reasonable person, there shouldn't be any problems with abusing the epic spellcasting system.

That said, many members have taken it upon themselves to make the system more idiot-proof. Their work is scattered around the boards, so you'll have to do some searching.

Is there a minimum DC for epic spells? Can I research a spell with a DC of 0? Or even a negative DC?
No, the rules list no minimum. DC 0 spells are certainly possible for those willing to pay the price in mitigating factors, and require 4,500 gp, 1 day, and 180 XP to research. Negative DCs, while theoretically possible, are definitely a bad idea. But due to the absence of an explicit rule, the DM is the final judge.

Why doesn't Mystra's Ban prevent me from casting epic spells?

--- Quote from: Eric Boyd, in Lost Empires of Faerun ---All those who live by magic know that in ages long past, mages had access to spells of great power. In the aftermath of Netheril's fall, however, Mystra banned certain high-level spells that she deemed too powerful for mortals to wield responsibly. Thus, current-day spellcasters no longer have access to true spells of 10th-level and higher. Instead, access to epic magic comes via two feats - Improved Spell Capacity and Epic Spellcasting - that function in very different ways.

The Improved Spell Capacity feat grants spell slots above 9th, theoretically without limit. Before Mystra's ban, powerful mages could fill these spell slots either with true spells of 10th level or higher, or with 9th-level or lower spells fortified by various metamagic feats. After Mystra's ban, only the latter option remained available.

The Epic Spellcasting feat allows the development and casting of epic spells (spells requiring the use of the epic spell system presented in the Epic Level Handbook, cast through superior mastery of the Spellcraft skill). Mystra's ban has never applied to epic spells, even those that duplicate the effects of 10th-level and higher spells developed before the fall of Netheril.

Epic spells did exist during the days of Netheril, but the Netherese largely abandoned their development after the discovery of the nether scrolls. During the age of Netheril, epic spells were largely the province of the Fair Folk and were thus almost exclusively associated with high magic. The Netherese, for their part, preferred to develop and use 10th-level and higher spells.

The fact that spells such as Ioulaum's longevity, Mythanthor's create mythal, Proctiv's move mountain, and Tolodine's killing wind have existed as both high-level spells and epic spells invariably leads to some confusion among scholars of the Art. In the case of Ioulaum's longevity, the famed archwizard Ioulaum created a 10th-level version before the fall of Netheril and an epic spell version after Karsus' Folly. The latter was the version cast by his apprentice Tabra, who then destroyed all records she could find of it.

Can a character with the Improved Metamagic and the Heighten Spell (and/or Improved Heighten Spell) feats use them to gain free increases to the DCs of her spells?
No. Improved Metamagic specifically reduces the spell slot increase of metamagic feats. Heighten Spell and Improved Heighten Spell, however, do not possess spell slot modifiers. They are described as actually increasing a spell's level, rather than the slot it occupies. As such, the two feats do not interact at all.

However, were a DM to decide that they do interact, it probably would not be overpowered.

What's the Level Adjustment for the paragon template? How about the quasi-deity template (Divine Rank 0)?
These are pretty tough. For the paragon template, +16 and +18 are popular numbers. The problem is that the power of the template is much less significant at lower levels than at higher. You should think twice about giving it to characters with less than 15 or 20 Hit Dice.

DvR 0 is easier. The general consensus is +6, though adding extraneous elements like ability score bonuses can boost it significantly.

My character took a Vow of Poverty, but now she's reached level 21 and there aren't any new abilities listed for her. All of the other characters are buying epic gear and leaving her in the dust. Where can I find an epic progression for the Vow?
There is no official progression for the Vow of Poverty beyond level 20. Perhaps if the Epic Insights column had still existed when the Book of Exalted Deeds was printed one would have been released, but that's not the case. There are very many unofficial progressions that have been devised on the boards here. The one that I believe to be the best was devised by WizO Negathael, and requires an Epic Vow of Poverty feat. It can be found here.

Why are my epic characters more powerful than the deities from Deities & Demigods?
Because WotC kind of dropped the ball on deity stats. Their policy at the time was to make each book they released a stand-alone work, and so they were bound by their own rules to build deities without using rules from the Epic Level Handbook. Obviously, in retrospect this was a very bad idea. Many people have tried their hands at rebuilding deities using epic rules. Most of this work happens at Dicefreaks.

Why are my epic characters more powerful than the archfiends from the Book of Vile Darkness, the archangels from the Book of Exalted Deeds, and the Elder Evils from Champions of Ruin?

If you're playing epic, pause for a moment to laugh at WotC's farcical cosmic entity stats and move on. They aren't there to be taken seriously. Trust me. They aren't even suitable for use as avatars.

For a slightly longer answer, the reason these entities are so weak is that they were designed to exist in a world in which no character can advance beyond 20th level (IE, the world of the core rulebooks). Thus, no mortal could challenge them, no magic weapon could damage them (except artifacts), etc. If any sort of epic rules are used, their stats become meaningless. The fact that you're here suggests that epic rules are being used in your campaign--therefore, those stats shouldn't be.

My party just killed a deity. Does this make us gods?!
No. Merely killing a deity does not allow one to ascend to godhood in any official campaign setting. The process is always more complex than that, and completely under the control of the DM. Talk to her for details.

I have Epic Leadership, and a ton of followers. If I make them worship me, do I become a god?
No. Merely possessing a number of worshippers does not allow one to ascend to godhood in any official campaign setting (though it may in your DM's world--ask her).

No, not even the Forgotten Realms. According to the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting, "by Ao's decree, a deity's power is in part derived from the number and fervor of his worshippers..." Note that it says "in part"--that means that deities do not die from losing worship, and they do not ascend by gaining it. There are other requisites for divine power, which your DM must determine (they probably include sponsorship by another deity).

When can we expect an Expanded Epic Level Handbook?
Never.

Upon reaching the top (or another safe point along the climb), the leader can use the aid another action to grant a +4 bonus (instead of the usual +2) to each other member who attempts the climb. In addition, each member after the task leader can attempt accelerated climbing and take a -2 penalty to the Climb check.Crowded ChargePHBIIJump 8Jump 1Other team members do not block movement for the purpose of determining whether a team member can charge. However, a charging team member must still end her movement in an unoccupied space.Cunning AmbushPHBIIHide 8 and Listen 8Hide 1If the team members allow the task leader to prepare their hiding positions, he can make a special Hide check to camouflage them. This check is modified by each team member's armor check penalty and Dexterity rather than the task leader's, and the camouflage effect lasts until the team member moves. Hiding a team member in this manner requires 10 minutes of work.Cunning Ambush, ImprovedPHBIIHide 12 and Listen 12Hide 3 and cunning ambushDuring the surprise round, each team member who is not surprised and has been camouflaged (see Cunning Ambush) can take a full round's worth of actions.Door ProceduresDMGIIListen 8 and Search 8Listen 1 or Search 1When listening at or searching a door or similar portal, the task leader gains a +1 circumstance bonus on his Listen and Search checks for each team member within 10 feet of the door. If the task leader chooses to take 20 on a Listen or Search check made at a door, he can do so in half the normal time (as if he had made ten attempts, rather than twenty).Expert MountaineersPHBIIClimb 8 and Use Rope 8Climb 1 or Use Rope 1If a team member succeeds on a Climb check, every other team member adjacent to him gains a +2 circumstance bonus on Climb checks made to ascend the same surface. Furthermore, each team member can make an accelerated climb with only a -2 penalty on the Climb check. Finally, a team member can catch a falling comrade by succeeding on a Climb check against the wall's DC (not against the wall's DC + 10).Fearsome RosterHoBIntimidate 8Cha 13 or Intimidate 1Enemies who can see at least two members of your team take a penalty on morale checks equal to 1 + one quarter of the Hit Dice of the lowest level member of the team.Field Medic TrainingDMGIIHeal 8Heal 1If two team members each attempt to stabilize the same dying creature in the same round, the second attempt automatically succeeds.Foe HuntingPHBIIFavored enemy (any one) +4Survival 1 and BAB +4Each team member who assumes a flanking position with the task leader against his favored enemy gains a +2 bonus on damage rolls against that creature.Friendly Fire EvasionHoBSpellcraft 4 and evasionRef +2 and Spellcraft 1You gain the evasion ability (see page 41 of the Player's Handbook), but only concerning spells cast by your team members.Friendly Fire Evasion, ImprovedHoBSpellcraft 6 and improved evasionFriendly fire evasion, Ref +3, and Spellcraft 1You gain the improved evasion ability (see page 42 of the Player's Handbook), but only concerning spells cast by your team members.Gaze AversionDMGIISpot 8Spot 1As long as at least one team member is looking directly at the gaze attack monster, any team member averting his eyes need not make a save against the gaze attack.Group TrancePHBIIElf bloodConcentration 1When team members join hands, the task leader can create a trance link that allows each of them, regardless of race, to meditate in the same manner as elves do. Every team member gains the benefit of 8 hours of sleep after just 4 hours of meditation.Heavy CavalryHoBHandle Animal 4, Ride 8, Mounted Combat and TrampleRide 1To close their formation, the team members and their mounts first line up in adjacent squares, then move closer together so that each takes up a square half as wide as usual. For example, a Medium character mounted on a horse or other Large creature normally takes up a 10 foot square, and a team of four such characters would occupy a rectangle 40 feet wide and 10 feet deep. By contrast, if the same team had trained together and acquired this teamwork benefit, they could compress their line into a unit only 20 feet wide and 10 feet deep, making it harder for anyone they overrun to doge between the horses' hooves. All team members must act on the same initiative count, so some members must delay to match the initiative count of the slowest member in the team. As long as the characters remain in a cohesive set of squares and move at least their speed every round, they gain the following benefits:
* They don't take the -4 penalty on attack rolls and to AC for squeezing (described on page 29 of the Dungeon Master's Guide).
* Opponents can't avoid overruns from team members; they must attempt to block.
* The team members' mounts count as one size category larger for purposes of resolving overruns. For example, a horse counts as a Huge creature (+8 bonus to overrun) rather than a Large creature (+4).
For the purposes of area spells and determining position on the battlefield, each Medium character on a Large mount is considered to be occupying a space 5 feet wide and 10 feet long.Indirect FirePHBIIPrecise Shot and BAB +6Spot 3This benefit denies opponents some of the protection normally granted by cover or concealment. If the spotter has an unobstructed line of sight to the covered or concealed target, she can, as a move action, use hand gestures, spoken directions, and body language to alert allies wielding ranged weapons to the target's position. If the target has covers, it gains only half the normal cover bonus to Armor Class against the team's ranged attacks. If the target has concealment, the attacker rolls the miss chance twice to determine whether his attack hits. A spotter who can see invisible targets can use this ability to allow a reroll on the miss chance to strike an invisible creature.InfiltrationHoBHide 8 and Move Silently 8Hide 1 or Move Silently 1Your team can move at full speed without taking a -5 penalty on Hide and Move Silently checks. Other penalties (such as from difficult terrain) still apply, and you take the normal penalties on Hide or Move Silently checks while attacking, running, or charging. Team members are always visible to each other despite their Hide check results and the presence of anything less than total concealment (although cover might still block line of sight between team members). If you move to a position where none of your comrades can see or contact you, you lose the teamwork benefit at the start of your next turn and don't count as part of the team until you reestablish contact with at least one member.Invisibility SweepHoBBlind-Fight-Each team member can check for the presence of an invisible enemy by groping into four adjacent 5 foot squares within reach, making touch attacks into those squares as described on page 295 of the Dungeon Master's Guide. Doing so is a standard action. If one team member pinpoints the location of an invisible enemy (whether through groping, Spot and Listen checks, or other means), every other team member within earshot also has that enemy pinpointed until that enemy moves into a different square. (Pinpointed invisible enemies still gain the benefits of total concealment; see page 152 of the Player's Handbook).Joint GrappleHoBBAB +4 or Improved Grapple-If you successfully use the aid another action to assist an adjacent team member's next grapple check or Escape Artist check to escape from a grapple, you provide your teammate with a bonus on that check equal to +4 or your Strength modifier, whichever is higher.Joint Bull RushHoBImproved Bull Rush-To perform a joint bull rush, all the team members involved must ready the bull rush action until the turn of the member with the slowest initiative. Then all the bull rushing team members move to their target at the same time and make a single bull rush attempt using the Strength bonus of the strongest team member. Each additional team member involved in the joint bull rush applies his or her Strength bonus (minimum +1). The team members must end their movement adjacent to one another, and they all provoke attacks of opportunity from the defender (although the defender can only make a single attack unless he has the Combat Reflexes feat).Joint RamHoBImproved Sunder-When your team is employing a ram to knock down a barrier or destroy another object, the ram deals an extra 2 points of damage for each team member wielding the ram. In addition, if a team member is trying to break down a door or perform a feat of strength similar to ramming, she gains a +4 bonus on the aid another action. The DM should set limits for how many team members can usefully help break down a particular door (typically two Medium creatures for every 5 feet of the door's width).Like a RockPHBIIStabilityBalance 1The task leader's stability bonus against bull rush or trip attempts extends to all team members adjacent to her. This bonus stacks with that provided by stability.Long Range ArcheryHoBFar ShotBAB +1When a team member misses with a ranged attack made against a target farther away then one range increment, subsequent ranged attacks any team member makes against that foe take only half the penalty for range (-1 per range increment). If the foe moves more than 20 feet, this benefit does not apply until a team member shoots at and misses the foe again.Massed ChargePHBIIBalance 5Balance 1The team can make a special charge attack. All team members move on the same initiative count, and each must charge and attack the same target. Each team member gains a bonus on his attack roll after the charge equal to the number of teammates participating.Missile VolleyPHBIIFar Shot and Precise ShotPoint Blank ShotEvery member of the team who readies an action to fire a missile weapon when the task leader does gains a bonus on the attack roll equal to the number of team members firing. The task leader also qualifies for the bonus, even though she did not ready an action. All these attacks must be made against the same target.Ranged PrecisionHoBBAB +4 and Precise ShotBAB +2The penalty for firing a ranged weapon into a melee is cut in half (from -4 to -2) if every ally in the melee is on your team. The AC benefit your foe gets from cover is likewise cut in half (from +4 to +2) if that cover consists solely of team members.ScoutingHoBListen 8 and Spot 8Listen 1 and Spot 1; or AlertnessThe team as a whole can make a free Spot check and a free Listen check at the end of each round, regardless of whether any members of the team have already made such checks that round. Use the lowest check modifier of any member of the team present, with a +1 bonus for every team member beyond the first. In the middle of a combat when actions are precious, this teamwork benefit gives the members detailed information about their immediate environment that they otherwise wouldn't have.Search TeamDSSearch 5, trap sense +1Search 1As a full-round action, the task leader can apply his Search check result to every square searched by a member of the ream (excluding the task leader).Snap Out of ItDMGIIConcentration 8 or Iron WillConcentration 1If a team member is known to be under the sway of a compulsion effect, an adjacent team member can spend a full-round action to grant that team member a new save against the compulsion effect (as the rogue's slippery mind class feature, except that the second save need not happen in the second round of the effect).
