Very Balanced for epic teirs. Fun way to advance characters.

i didn't like the every 30,000 exp gain a boon or level up option. it made it seem like leveling up wasn't a big reward anymore.

A great fan addition to very high, epic level play builds. I dont necessarily plan on running this level of play for PCs, but it allows me to provide special abilities, powers and enhancements to NPC gods, demigods and deities, who far exceed normal mortal limitations. The layout is clear and the art, (stock art) really gives this an authentic, Wizards seal of approval. Im a particular fan of Deathsave advantage and X-born powers.

In general a good design at epic level characters. It fits the 5e philosophy well with simple extensions of each class the fit on one page (per class). It also fits in nicely with the existing boon system. The epic feats and expanding spells beyond 9th level were helpful as well. I'm not sure about balance issues and of course you would need something to fight these heros - so that is an issue, other than those the only big negative I see is the resolution of the PDF itself. It need to be a higher resolution as the text is a bit blurry. Overall though - good work!

All in all, it's a pretty good supplement, much more balanced than many other Epic leveling rules I've seen for 5e.

The problems I see are some balance issues, and a bit of formatting issues with the bard's feature box, starting their cantrips off with one less spell than lvl 20, putting down spells known as 1 to 6, and having a column listing "Bardic Inspiration" with no other information being given.

Good starting points for epic leveling. From my point of view it needs some work on balancing.

It includes epic multiclassing and extend class levels till 30.

Now this is more like it! A much better format than a certain other product I reviewed, and it works alongside the existing epic boon system, with higher levels coming at exactly 30,000 XP. However, instead of simply taking an epic boon, this book allows you to take a new feat (with some of the limitations of the feats taken off) a level of one of your classes below level 20, or an epic level of one of your classes below level 30, which are introduced in this short, nineteen page document. While I'm unsure about some of the choices made in those classes -- such as the way every epic class gains advantage on death saves -- they all offer intriguing expansions of the classes' core competencies.

The only major problems with this product are some embarrassing slip-ups, like putting an epic barbarian's class features in the list of epic wizard class features, and a mess-up in the table of contents. But on the whole, I'm looking forward to repurchasing this work at the first opportunity.
