Another tier of damage reduction? Nice.

Might as well make it DR/-- and be done with it... If you really want deities to get past it, just let deities and the weapons they make ignore DR or something.

There no reasons to hate the article since it well written, I am going so far a to let any rewrite of epic a chance (seriously epic don't work because the epic level handbook was written by morons and if you continue normal progression you can go as far as level 24-26 ymv without the system requiring big adjustment).

Why make a second layer of Epic if the first one is already stupid?

This should be a transformative variant rule, no? --Havvy 15:29, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

Sure, go for it. -- 20:44, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

Su DR[edit]

Actually, I though DR/epic was supernatural. With that in mind, let's make it Ex. -- Eiji-kun 09:21, 6 August 2012 (UTC)

In response to Foxwarrior... because in epic, DR/epic means nothing. Everyone has it. It is epic's DR/magic. I needed something to represent DR/real ultimate power that was rarely, but able to be bypassed (which is why I didn't use DR/-). DR/epic really only works for pre-epic creatures you want to have that want to express as having real ultimate power and whatnot. -- Eiji-kun 21:21, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
This is really not able to be bypassed, though. Players don't really become deities -- not the way deities are written, anyway -- so this damage is never available to them...which means it may as well be DR/-. The only place I can see this coming up is if an NPC deity fights a monster. And what's the point of the DM fighting against himself? If you incorporate this into Complete Epic in such a way that it's actually usable, then it can be judged as a part of that whole. But on its own, I might honestly rethink my rating it drop it down to a 0. --DanielDraco 21:31, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
Players and godhood is something I'm... fixing. For now, just trust me that it'll be possible, though more likely it's because they're wielding Cutslash, the Blade of the Gods or something. -- Eiji-kun 21:37, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
And as an update, God the class is now online. Check the Talk page. -- Eiji-kun 06:56, 28 August 2012 (UTC)
In reply to Ghostwheel, "because I don't want deities to auto-bypass all DR". -- Eiji-kun 02:35, 30 August 2012 (UTC)
