The rules for levels below 21 are still the same. This set of variant rules applies only when characters reach level 21.
Level 50 becomes the new maximum character level a player can have.
Ability scores now have a maximum of 30.
Upon reaching level 21, your proficiency bonus becomes +7, then increases to +8 at level 25, +9 at level 29, +10 at level 33, +11 at level 37, +12 at level 41, +13 at level 45, and +14 at level 49.
If a player continues leveling the same class through level 21 to 49, they gain epic boons at levels 21, 25, 29, 31, 35, 39, 41, 45, and 49, and ability score increases at levels 22, 26, 30, 34, 38, 42, 46, and 50. Any and all ability score improvements give 3 points rather than the traditional 2, and 4 points after level 40, or 2 feats if using the optional feats rule.
Cantrips that deal damage increase by 1 additional damage die at levels 22 (5), 28 (6), 35 (7), 39 (8), 45 (9), and 50 (10).
If you're a Dragonborn, your breath weapon moves up to 6d6 at 21st level, 7d6 at 26th level, 8d6 at 31st level, 9d6 at 36th level, 10d6 at 41st level, and 11d6 at 46th levels
Upon reaching past level 20 you may pick a second subclass. You gain the features of the subclass at level 20 + the original features level.
