Question About Epic Dispel
I gave this one a go in the Q&A thread, but nobody wanted to give it a go;
In the epic Dispel seed, it states that the dispel check is 1d20+10, +1 for each additional +1 to the Spellcraft DC. Does this mean that the caster level of the dispeller isn't an issue, so long as they can make the spellcraft dc?
Thanks, folks.Avatar by Aedilred

Re: Question About Epic Dispel
If we use superb dispelling as an example, that only refers to the cap on the caster level. Not the actual caster level. But the text in the dispel seed seems to contradict that, even though superb dispelling uses the dispel seed specifically.

So you never have to interrupt a game to look up a rule again:
My 3.5e Rules Cheat Sheets: Normal, With Consolidated Skill System
TOGC's 3.5e Spell/etc Cards: rpgnow / drivethru rpg

Re: Question About Epic Dispel
I think that it is also in error:
1) additional +30 to dispel check (+30 DC),
2) But look here: Greater Dispel with max +40.
Greater Dispel has max +20 +30=50 not 40.
So Superb Dispelling isn't even written right.
It should say as Dispel Magic but +40 Max or additional +20 to dispel check (+20 DC).

Re: Question About Epic Dispel
The dispel seed starts with a base of +10, so the +30 is correct. That also means with a DC 39 spellcraft check you could make an epic spell that imitates an ordinary dispel magic, except that it works against any spell.
