Type of feat: class (given based on class levels) (epic)
Prerequisite: epic shadowdancer
Specifics: The character's summon shadow ability is reinforced, allowing him to call an epic shadowlord to his side. Unlike a non-epic shadowlord, an epic shadowlord is a potent fighter, reinforced by his master's lifeforce, making him stronger each time the shadowdancer gains a level.
Use: automatic
Notes[]
- Requires Hordes of the Underdark.
- The epic shadowlord has the same abilities and immunities as the pre-epic variety and is a fighter a level lower than the shadowdancer's level.
- This feat is only available as a shadowdancer epic bonus feat, not as a general feat.
Previous versions[]
- Prior to version 1.69, the epic shadowlord lacked concealment, making it less effective at lower levels than its pre-epic counterpart.
