The DC does not change at all (it's baked into the Rune Effect and never changes), the only thing that matters is if the TARGET of the Incap effect is HIGHER level than the Effect itself, in this case it sounds like that is not the situation.

If the Rogue is 18, the Weapon is 19, and they failed their save you now have a fresh corpse on your hands.

The Vorpal Weapon property is 17, but it is bestowed from a 20th creature which also gives it major striking. Does the incapacitation compare to a 17th level rune, 19th level from the max rune on the weapon, or 20th which is the level of the creature?


Hello adventurer,

I Threw a Balor Demon at my 18th level party this weekend and I need everyone's opinion on the subject at hand.

Since the Balor bestows his weapon with Vorpal, I took that to mean that the Vorpal ability is now at 20th level. I now dont think that is the case any more. This matters because of the incapacitation trait. What level is the Vorpal property when bestowed by a creature? This only gets more confusing with the inclusion of the Major Striking Rune. If the weapon is 19 because of that rune then what is the DC and level of the Vorpal rune now?

Our rogue had his head cut off on a natural 20 and is now dead and depending on what the verdict is, I may owe him an apology.
