I used level 20 in both cases because 5E doesn't have epic level rules (yet)
Nor will have, a lv 17 char is "hero of the world", meanwhile, on 2e, Meredoth is the ruler of the Nocturnal sea realm of dread and is a lv 20 necromancer. You can have high level and local adventures.

The point of a game is to be fun.

I was wrong. He has 34 SR only, so is about 50% chance of hitting with both feats.

Do you know what Rovagug is?
Rovagug is a God of Destruction which NOT EVEN ALL GODS COULD DEFEAT. Only trick and imprison. Their spawns has a tiny fraction of their power but are godlike non the less.
Here is a guy killing this "bloated" boss within 2 minutes on the hardest difficulty.
And PFKM would be better if was more faithful to P&P.
If magical gear wasen't that powerful and sneak attack wasen't broken OP. Keep in mind that is possible to kill him with phantasmal kill.
