CR instead? Knocks Dry Lich down to +3.
At ECL 60, I'd feel wrong
trying too hard.
Also, I'd feel stupid playing a demilich. Being a floating skull or hand... :<
So, what would happen if I turned this into a permanent emanation and started casting?----
Current plan is more or less: craft epic spells I can't fail* to get century-long enormous buffs to my ability scores (in the case of CHA, I think this means another 4400 HP). Permanent Emanation: Greater Anticipate Teleport for a ~250ft warning/delay zone when said goddess shows up to stop me. Move within 40', also having
this, and she'd need a natural 20 on her fort save to cast anything (because her automatic save is 82, whilst this is at a minimum DC 92 BEFORE my pre-existing saves). Ditto for a natural 20 required to actually hit, and even then it's basically a scratch. And if I do this somewhere nice and sunny, like a desert, she also can't use her portfolio abilities to show up out of range by scanning in advance. Dimension Door would take care of that, anyway. <.<
Automatic Quickened Spell III (nice of PF to let Sorcerers have this) means I can toss basically anything at her whilst casting the main spell. Would just need to find something that works around divine immunities.
That's less than 1/3 of Epic Feats, at that (Epic Spells are included in Netherese Arcanist if I go for that, otherwise it IS 1/3).
To keep her occupied, I also have a similarly buffed cohort. Perhaps a mellowed out ancient wyrm of some description. Shar vs enormous and buffed lizard, go!
*i.e., I can cast them on my own with no chance of failure. Given their length, and given I'm undead, 100 day and 10 minute casting isn't a terrible drawback. Could add on backlash damage if I wanted, but +75 modifiers to everything should be enough.
