Probably old info?
Maybe not. Just checked a few of my epic weapons and they don't have the Epic flag...odd.
I'm not surprised - I have not seen anything with an Epic
damage flag (including the aforementioned Cannith Challenge items).
http://ddowiki.com/page/Item:Epic_Mournlode_GreataxeI do wonder if this is muddying the waters between weapon level (Heroic/Paragon/Epic) and damage type.
The first determines the base damage dice of the weapon, the second determines the type of damage delivered.
Tbh, I had not thought of Epic as a damage type - is that what it is intended as?
That being said, we do have the Shadowscale heavy armour with DR30/Epic.
I have often wondered, but never tested if this meant every Epic monster bypassed the DR?
if so, that would make it good for ROFL stomping Heroics.....?
Anyone tested this or understand what is going on with this?
