Like I said player wants to make an Epic Arachne, Which for people who aren't familiar with Arachne it's in the Faith and Pantheon's in Forgotten Realms. Here's my problem though I looked at some epic progressions of other classes to get a good idea of what they'd gain in feats since there class abilities don't stretch passed lvl 10. I'll give some examples futher down mainly just looking for Opinion one which would be a better choice for Epic Feat Progression since they don't gain any additional abilities and point of views that you might have.

Epics - epic feats they get past lvl 10 (20 for clerics)
-Clerics - past 20 every 3 lvls
-Eye of Horus-Re - past 10 every 2 lvls (9/10 Caster - Cleric BAB - No Special Abilities after 10)
-Hathran - past 10 every 2 lvls (Full Caster - Wizard BAB - Yes Special Abilities after 10)
-Incantatrix - past 10 every 3 lvls (Full Caster - Wizard BAB - Yes Special Abilities after 10)
-Justiciar of Tyr - past 10 every 3 lvls (Full Caster - Cleric BAB - Yes Special Abilities after 10)
-Morninglord of Lathander - past 10 every 3 lvls (Full Caster - Cleric BAB - Yes Special Abilities after 10)

These are the classes I'm really trying to base my decision off of, because all of these are full Caster except Eye of Horus-Re (which is 9/10) all of these have either Wizard of Cleric BAB.

From What I read about continuing a class to Epic from the Epic Handbook Arachne would gain no class abilities beyond 10 so what I'm really trying to figure out is..... every 2 lvls past lvl 10 (since they don't gain any futher abilities) to much or should I just go with every 3 lvls past 10. Sorry it's long winded and probly not explained right.

I would go with feats every two levels.

Didn't the Arachne have a familiar and a mount? Those normally increase after lvl 20. I'd say... 1/3 or 4 levels

Yea they do have a familiar and a mount. The familiar doesn't progress up ever. The mount isn't really a special ability, because it's only good for riding and in epic it didn't feel like a suitable reason to really list. Thx for the feedback I could really use more ideas and suggestions if you do feel the mount would be a reason to say 1 epic feat per 3 lvls or go with 1 epic feat per 2 lvls (see above for afew breakdowns and feel free to add your own I'm still working on this and afew other classes for my game this just happens to be the one that is giving me the most trouble).
