Epic Level Handbook
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Epic Level Handbook is a rulebook by Wizards of the Coast containing rules for Dungeons & Dragons 3rd edition characters to attain levels above 20, the limit in the core rulebooks. It provides epic-level progression information for all the core classes in the Player's Handbook and the prestige classes listed Dungeon Master's Guide, as well as the classes from the Psionics Handbook. It also provides epic-level prestige classes, magical items, and artifacts designed to be used by epic-level characters, and monsters that provide epic-level challenges. It also provides information on "Epic Spells", spells that must be researched and developed, and may only be cast by one particular spellcaster.
While the book has been updated for the 3.5th edition via an update document available from the Wizards of the Coast website, there is a clamoring amongst players for a version specifically designed for 3.5, stating that the epic-level rules, particularly the epic spell rules, are unbalanced and can be easily abused.
