Something I think would be really cool, is a way to do some alternate epic quests much like teh greenmist was on live.
Get a certain weapon, as you progress, you quest certain things that make this alterna-epic grow more powerful. something that can be done every 10 levels or so, an item that grows with the character.
Make it something that is different, obviously, than the regualr epic. Possibly different for different races of the same class as well.
For instance, ogre SKs could have a 2hb alterna-epic, troll SKs a 1hb alterna-epic, DE and Human SK's a 1hs alterna-epic (but different), and iksar a 2hp alterna-epic.
stats for SK alterna-epic could go something like :
levels 1-10 quested
ratio 2/5 (3/7 for 2h)
str +2 sta +2
ac 2
levels 11-20 quested
ratio 3/7 (1/2 for 2h)
str +2 sta +2 hp+15 mana+15
ac 3
levels 21-30 quested
ratio 1/2 (5/8 for 2h)
str +2 dex +2 sta +2 hp +20 mana +20
ac 3
levels 31-40
ratio 5/7 (3/4 for 2hs)
str +2 int + 3 dex +3 sta +2 hp +20 mana +20
ac 5
levels 40-50
ratio 5/6 (9/10 for 2hs)
str +4 int +3 dex +3 sta +4 hp +25 mana +25
ac 5
proc DD or disease DoT or something
etc etc, with varying stats depending on the race for whom they are intended.
Anyway, thought it would be a cool idea.
