ECL and Epic levels

[Plot Lost]

So how does ECL and Epic levels actually work on this server? So, let us imagine a ECL 2 Drow character, a Rogue/Assassin. Can there be a Rogue 8/Assassin 20 -- or is it going to be a Rogue 10/Assassin 18?

What I am asking here is that can a character with 18 pre-epic levels and +2 ECl, take epic PRC progressions on the next level? Or will said character have to take two more levels before epic PRC progression becomes possible.

They'll get to epic at *class* level 21, technically ECL 23. So yes, you delay access to epic stuff when you've got an ECL.

And when it comes to being locked out from reaching epic levels, a ECL 2 race character would lock out at the "class level" of 18?

Yes.

Alright, thanks for answers!
