ALL epic spells use +5

its 10 (base) + 10 (spell level) + 5 (epic spell bonus) + stat mod

so 25 + mod, you seriously got rid of the +5 :?

if so it needs to go back :lol:

I have the impression that Epic spells so far used the same formula as regular spells for DCs, except treating their spell level as 10.

so in my case for instance that would be:

10[base DC] + 10 [spell level] + 10[Int. mod.]+ 5 [the bonus all epic spells receive] = 35

You got Ninja'd - I think Hell ball isn't using the +5 and I'm using the script I got for that one so it probably never has.

Greater Ruin was set to use CasterLevel + 5 (not 10 + 10 + INT + 5)

hellball should be, the DC was what it should be with my sorceress, 25 + 7 = 32 DC

and my greater ruin had the DC that it should of had with my cleric so, not really sure what you mean :?

If that was the problem in the code isn't it a little odd since I had a CL of 21...?

I think your casterlevel +5 is 27 according to the game so you count as level 22 - that might have something to do with being an ECL race or a feat or ???.

I'm also positive that Hellball is not adding 5 - it's 20 + Ability

(Spell Save DC)

This is your regular NWN2 casterlevel calculation, I haven't changed that in anyway.

Well it should add +5: http://nwn2.wikia.com/wiki/Hellball

As for the CL, I have nothing that may increase my CL beyond my HD... sounds weird and race should have no impact on that.

It's what the stock game thinks your casterlevel is - It seems to think you a level higher than you are. Drow is ECL + 2 or + 1 on BGTSCC?

Well I suppose we should dub this Eldebryns rule of Casterlevel adjustment due to awesomeness - I can't think of a reason why the game would increase your CL like that.

At caster levels 23,26,29 etc... I am CL 21, and yet I had DC 27 on g.ruin which according to Rasael's info indicates CL 22.

well my sorceress is human so... no ECL for her

and the epic DC bonuses dont apply to epic spells, probably because they are feats and not actual spells

Ok, I just noticed something even weirder... When I noticed that 27 DC I used ruin a 2nd time to confirm, and it was still 27 indeed.

A little while ago, I logged inside the game again, after resting I used it two more times. The first time the DC was 32 and the second one it was 26.

Something is very wrong This wasn't happening before the spell hook so it must be related <_<

I'm running my tests but it seems to be related only to that spell.
