Arrays of more than 20. - Page 2

Wow. I just found the easiest solution ever.

Manually add hit dice, manually add adjustments, let the program yell all it wants about validation errors.

Can't believe I didn't try this first.

Makes it really difficult to create worlds when you have lvl 90 creatures running around next to the village of lvl 1 commoners.

The summoner Eidolon won't increase beyond 20 still unfortunately. So even if they take levels in other classes, their Eidolon will be underpowered. Luckily it just means we have to use the old fashioned way (paper and pencil, shudder) to supplement what hero lab can't do.

Mythic Helps but I'm not convinced its a full epic level solution. It feels a lot different in how it works. The arrays do need to keep increasing though, it was covered in the core book and that is something that needs to be fixed when time permits.

Just a note that last update the number of rows in the spellcasting arrays was increased to 50, to accomodate the class templates from monster codex which can be applied to monsters of 20 or more HD. So that is one less barrier for epic stuff.

Aaron,

That helps slightly but we also need columns increased. I know past 20th level in the official rules you still get slots for 10th, 11th, etc level spells. These slots don't have spells but they enable you to apply metamagic feats to higher level spells. So that only fixes half the problem right now.
