Resist Death


(Epic Level Handbook, page 111, DnD 3.0)


[Epic]


You are capable of withstanding tremendous amounts of damage without risk of instant death.

Prerequisite


Character level or HD 21+

Benefit


The amount of damage from a single attack that causes you to make a Fortitude save (DC 15) or die doubles (from 50 points to 100 points).

Special


If you are using the Death from Massive Damage Based on Size variant found in Chapter 3 of the "_Dungeon Master's Guide_":rulebooks/core-35--1/dungeon-masters-guide-v35--4/, this feat doubles the numbers given in Table 3-8: Massive Damage Based on Size. Thus, a Small creature's threshold would go from 40 points to 80, while a Huge creature's threshold would increase from 70 points to 140. You can gain this feat multiple times. Its effects stack. Remember that two doublings equals a tripling, and so on.
