Has any HG work been done to make this spell worthwhile? After all, it is an epic spell.
Even before reaching Epic level, I already had more than +5 of every AC type. I assume this is even more so for the tea players out there! The only benefit I see is +5 on Dodge. Have any thoughts been put up? perhaps push it to 15/AC type, or dump an additional +5 or +10 into “other” AC?
I happen to be a big fan of Epic Warding (although I am willing to bet that there are +20 mobs in the hells). It would be nice if warnings little sibling were on par.

Thanks for the link! Alas, I only have it from an item. :_( Ah well. At least I can get some gold for it.

Cast EMA is great! 1. It gives epic dodge. 2. It gives skills; discipline and concentration are common on caster gear, parry not so much. Its parry bonus will greatly help you climb over 100+ threshold needed for many (not all though) CS / MS / dev crit attacks. 3. Dodge bonus from EMA together with 1 other source of dodge AC (all potential EMA casters have at least one of their own, doesn't matter which you pick) will counter all layer penalties to AC, no matter where you are. Until you die, that is. EW is nice on items, and that's where it should stay. Stock up on wiki.hgweb.org/wiki/Sash_of_Elysium. Some gear has up to 5 charges per rest. EW as feat is a poor choice though, it could use some help. When you have a caster build, have taken everything you wanted and have just 1 feat for an epic spell, the choice comes down to greater ruin or EMA, never EW.

Sadly, I only had EMA from an item. I do have several EW item usages, though: 2 or three from a helmet and one from a sickle)
