epic feats

[erikbozelie]

for a pale master, what are your thoughts of the following feats for an optimized wizard. / which do you think would be the most powerfulst feats picked compared to eachother:

~epic spell pen (+4 spell pen)
~epic toughness (+50hp)
~epic mental toughness ( +200sp )
~epic spell focus (+1 dc in 1 school)
~or 2x great intelligence ( +1 overal dc, and 34sp)

we can only pick 2.

If you're asking this question, you probably need to take Epic Spell Pen. Think about your Spell Penetration. What numbers are you going to hit? Do you want to run Epic Elite or not?

Next, calculate your stats. If your INT is winding up odd, then take Great INT. If it's winding up even, then take Epic Spell Focus.

You have to do these calculations yourself, given your build, gear and goals.

hmm its a 2nd life pure elf wizard.
however... offset intelligence can be easy swapped with a single twist of faith point right?

whats the spell resistance of elite demonweb quests?
i know the whisps in the level 19 quests in the village itself have 50+.

ok ive tested this is epic elite bob.
the SR in there is (36+19) = 53 for a success. a 52 was a fail. ( this is level @ 20)
i need 18 Spell penetration higher to get this 95% of the time.
(36 = 20 base +4 elf +4 feat +2past life +3enhancement +3 item)

so at level 25:

+5 from epic destinies
+3 piercing spell crafting
do normal levels 20-25 give any spell pen?

sounds to me like i need the +4 feat epic spell pen feat.

48/53 = 75% change of success?

I would aim for 54 Spell Pen. 58 is, IMO, unnecessary.
