This Is No Time For Sporaxus (Inactive)

Game Master Reckless

Damn. Guess I was too late to be considered, huh?

No matter, I suppose. I like building characters, so I still had some fun at least. Though for the life of me, I will never understand why BAB doesn't scale with epic levels but caster level does. Or why Barbarian doesn't gain any new rage powers but every spellcaster continues to gain new spells known AND new spells per day.

And then there's the Epic Class feat system, which... is also terrible for Full BAB classes. Barbarian (& Gunslinger) gets 1 class feat per 3 levels, compared to Bard and numerous other medium BAB SPELLCASTING classes gaining 1 class feat every 2 levels. Remember that Barbarians no longer get new rage powers, but these classes still get new spells every freaking level.

Fighter also gets 1 class feat every 2 levels... but this seemingly REPLACES their original bonus feats - the one thing they got over any other class! Fighter also gains more weapon groups they can select, but the actual weapon training bonus doesn't scale beyond +4, so this is literally only useful for Advanced Weapon Trainings. Despite this, Bards can scale their Inspire Courage and other performances infinitely, and even have class feats that can boost them continuously.

This doesn't even begin to get into how crazy epic level spellcaster feats and metamagic can get, compared to Epic Combat feats that are either more damage, or stuff that 3rd party lets you do at like level 1. There's a lot of good in Jesse's Epic Pathfinder, and it's great that there's such a wide amount of enumerated rules for the stuff that would otherwise be quite niche. But alas, as written it only strengthens the caster-martial divide, IMHO.

If nothing else, things like BAB and saves should continue scaling as normal. Since that's how the game creates it's own epic level monsters, afterall.

Have fun everyone!

Thank you, GM and my fellow selected. To everyone else, hope to see you again on the next one. :)

The First Flame has agreed to join us.

Additionally, Warchief Bloodscream has cleared things up and will be joining us after all.

Looks like I'm definitely late for this game but any chance of another game opening up or any back up spots
