Jan 25, 2012 9:01:53 Never going to happen. WotC has clearly abandoned all but the most minimal support for epic tier. They've said in the past that they see very few players in the tier so they'd be very reluctant to put out a book that caters to such a small audience. My guess is that their data from online CB shows them that only a few people are playing in epic.

The best we can hope for is a lengthy Dungeon article or two that helped explain how to run an epic tier campaign. I'd also love to see one more full length epic tier adventure that showcases the best features of epic tier.

In the perfect world we'd see some more epic monsters. And not just solos, we need some meat and potatoes epic tier standard monsters that actually represent some kind of a threat, and something that is not demon/devil/undead.

Alas, epic had so much promise early on but has been neglected so badly that few people want to play there. Personally I love it and think it is the most solid version of epic play that has ever been released in the history of D&D.

Jan 25, 2012 19:55:20 I imagine we will see some epic support through DDI. I'd be surprised if a DMG 3 was released but I hope they will treat the end of 4th edition like how they did 3rd; was Elder Evils the name of the book that they released that had campaign ending villains in it?
