Epic Feat: Scry/Conjure/Teleport

Post by WanderingPoet » Fri May 26, 2017 4:26 am

I propose an additional feat be added for Scrying, Conjuring and Teleporting which requires Greater Spell Focus in the related field rather than epic spell focus and not require any level of spells.

Now what if you then get epic spell focus? Upgrade the spell if they have both feats.
If you have Epic Spell: Scry and Epic Spell Focus: Divination and you can scry for twice as long, or be warded against 'problems' while scrying
Epic Spell: Teleport and Epic Spell Focus: Transmutation: you can teleport across to the other server
Epic Spell: Conjure and Epic Spell Focus: Conjuration: You can conjure a group within a circle around your target (or across server)

This change would have two benefits:
1. Allows paladins, rangers and bards, who are able to get spell focuses, the ability to sacrifice some of their martial abilities and pick up some of the nice abilities that only wizards/sorcerers/druids/clerics can have. They would need to spend 3 feats which would limit their combat abilities in order in order to get just one of the abilities, so you wouldn't see many with more than one.
2. Allow a cleric, wizard, sorcerer or druid that highly specializes (one extra feat used) to get a more powerful version of the spell. To upgrade the epic spell focus you'd have to sacrifice an epic spell or other epic spell focus

This could of course allow anyone to tip into a few levels of sorcerer/cleric/wizard/druid in order to get one of these feats, but they'd still sacrifice 3 feats and then lose health/BAB to get one. However, it would make sense for a paladin of Deneir to be able to learn to scry, or a bard of Oghma to be able to teleport - but that is impossible from a mechanical perspective as they would need to take 17 levels in a cleric/wizard/sorc/druid in order to qualify.
