Epic levels

Epic Levels (21-25)
Epic levels and Epic Destinies are two different things. With Menace of the Underdark the game is making a clear distinction between Heroic and Epic levels. From Epic levels 21 to 25 there are no Heroic class levels or Enhancements; it's all focused on Epic levels and additional customization through swappable Epic Destinies.

Characters earn "Epic Experience points" from any experience gain, but Epic dungeons will usually give you more experience than Heroic dungeons. A character that reaches Heroic level 20 will automatically begin to accumulate Epic Experience, progressing through Epic levels 21 through 25. XP required to level is identical for all characters, regardless of number of TR's.

Power-leveling penalties while grouping may be changed in the future for level 20+, but currently XP penalties still apply during epic levels. For example: a level 24 questing with a level 20, and the level 20 receives an experience penalty.
 * Characters that are level 21 or higher may select Epic Feats or Heroic Feats as their level 21 and 24 feat selections.
 * Epic levels grant +1 to all skills each level for levels 21-25.
 * There's no spell point progress nor caster level progress, however some of the Destinies have such benefits.
