Is there an epic firesoul mage handy? This isn't a big deal from what I recall you saying, but just curious.

No, but since epic progressions never give anything on level 1 I didn't see it worth writing one up.

Domain spells! They're of particular interest to me (since I'm the only PC that actually uses them, I believe), and so since I finally get epic domain spells here are my thoughts on what works for the relevant domains:

lvl12: Legion's Gates

WAR I struggled with War domain spells because War is the most important of all my domains. I don't only get to cast these spells (eventually), but I also get a bonus to CL and damage, so it's hard to aim for anything approaching objectivity. Anyway, you put Foresight there instead of Power Word Kill, so I looked for suitable divinations. The multi-target blasting spell is self-explanatory. Thoughts?

Kascha reaches level 26.

- Ghaela 26 and Wyrm Wizard 16.
- 5 on a d8 for a total of 12 hit points and a grand total of 305 hit points.
- +1 BAB for a total of +26.
- Another selection from spell knowledge. Kascha selects summon planetar, since sometimes you just need to summon someone who can cast 9th level cleric spells.
- Gains 26th level wizard spellcasting. +1 11th level spell slot. She selects summon planetar.
- +1 spell resistance for a total of 38.
- All saves rise by 1.
- Skills go up as normal.

It's my birthday so replies will be slow.

[Corwin]

Levels 26 and 27 bring to Jaela:
*more BAB
*lvl12 spells
*lvl10 domain spells (yes!)
*+1 to saves, +2CL, +2SR
*epic feat and bonus epic feat, both sunk into Improved Metamagic (I now have 3 of them, thus freeing one of my regular feats from Easy Metamagic. It is now Twin Spell.)
*Slippery Mind is situationally nice
*my armor hax finally extends to medium armors!

Spells-wise, I'm getting Burst of Glory and Nerve Overload. I'm unsure of Legion's Gates, and will probably drop Energy Immunity since I can access it via domain now (likely in favor of Cleansing Rain which is awesome). I need to figure out what to do for lvl11 slots and possibly a lvl12 one. Did you ever have any ideas for elven pantheon-themed spells? Selune and Lathander give a bunch of spells to their devout followers, just to name a couple, so it'd be neat to have something.

Do I get more spell slots for pre-epic Divine Crusader casting? Judging by both epic and pre-epic progressions, they go from 0 to 3, but the pre-epic class stops at lvl6 and lvl7 spells get only 2 slots when the pre-epic class ends. Basically, now that it's continuing do I get another lvl7 slot to bring me up to 3, and another lvl8 slot the next level and so on for lvl9?

Happy Birthday~

Contingency question. We couldn't use it with Heal and similar spells while also using Fortunate Fate, which makes sense. But could I use Fortunate Fate (for when I'm about to die) and Contingency/Heal if my hp drops to half of max or lower? In theory they could activate together if someone oneshots me in all my 500+hp, but activation conditions should be different in most cases.

Requesting approval of the spell Mystic Shield from the book Anauroch: The Empire of Shade, p. 141. Found via D&D tools.

We'll try it. At worst it goes on the banned list.

Quick note, your save bonuses are wrong. Epic characters get a +1 to all saves at level 23, 26, 29 and so on. Total level, not class level. So you'd get a +1 to all saves at level 26 (the first level) and nothing at level 27 (the second level).

Is there an epic firesoul mage handy? This isn't a big deal from what I recall you saying, but just curious.

No, but since epic progressions never give anything on level 1 I didn't see it worth writing one up.

That's not precisely true, it's just that the numbers usually don't work out that way. Link me to the class real quick?

[Anastasia]

I presume the bolded ones are yours and the others already exist. Let me know if I'm wrong.

Suggested  lvl10: "Greater Cone of Cold" [30d6 damage cap, the rest as Cone of Cold]

Reasonable enough. Write it up.

lvl10: Mass Freedom of Movement
Suggested lvl10: Many Moments of Prescience or Amea's Mental Partition. MFoM is both boring and terrible  :(

I wouldn't use Amea's Mental Partition for a domain spell. It's too much a niche spell a particular wizard dreamed up, which isn't good material for a domain spell, which are more universal.

I don't want to change domain spells already set without an extremely compelling reason, as that's a rabbit hole of more DM work, revisions and generally making my life a lot harder.

Suggested lvl10: Glaciante's Spiteful Ward (or Circle of Spiritual Protection/Create Living Spell/Spellpool)

Glaciante's Spiteful Ward runs into the same problem as Amea's Mental Partition.

I'd go with....mmmm. Let's go with Create Living Spell. It fits. Added to the Spell Collection.

Suggested lvl10: Miracle of Health
Suggested lvl11: Mass Regeneration (or Shape Soul)
Suggested lvl12: Instant Regeneration

Renewal's a tough one since it's not really a healing domain. Sure, it has some options to restore, but it's more about new beginnings and changes. Charm person? Makes a new and better start with a person. Atonement? Washes away sin to begin anew. Clone? A new body and a new life. I don't feel going pure healing is nailing the essence of the domain. To be entirely honest, I suspect it needs at least one custom spell.

I struggled with War domain spells because War is the most important of all my domains. I don't only get to cast these spells (eventually), but I also get a bonus to CL and damage, so it's hard to aim for anything approaching objectivity. Anyway, you put Foresight there instead of Power Word Kill, so I looked for suitable divinations. The multi-target blasting spell is self-explanatory. Thoughts?

Breaking down the War Domain, you have three distinct types of spells.

1. Spells that boost your equipment.
2. Spells that cause direct damage.
3. Spells that cause negative conditions.

You also have an oddball divination due to a houserules patch. In retrospect something like meteor swarm may have been a better choice, but that boat's sailed.

Moonlight Revelation's too Selune to be a War Domain spell. It's tied to too many deities across the alignment spectrum.

Have a preference between Many Moments of Prescience and Superior Mighty Wallop?

No to Burst of Glory at 12. It's a good descriptor spell and War's a domain that transcends alignments, being offered by deities across the alignment spectrum.

Suggested lvl10: Greater Displacement [total concealment without Displacement's caveats, ie true seeing doesn't reveals true location, the rest as Displacement] (or Curse of Inadequacy/Snowbound Soul)

Write up a greater displacement and let me see how it looks.

[Ebiris]

That's not precisely true, it's just that the numbers usually don't work out that way. Link me to the class real quick?

here you go.

[Corwin]

How about Power Word Stun, Mass for clr12, war12?

[Anastasia]

That's not precisely true, it's just that the numbers usually don't work out that way. Link me to the class real quick?

here you go.

Burning penetration would go up at 11 (3, 7, 11), so note that.
