This command:
ParametricPlot3D[{Cos[t], Sin[t], t}, {t, 0, 2 \[Pi]},
Epilog -> {Arrow[{{0, 0, 0}, {Cos[\[Pi]], Sin[\[Pi]], \[Pi]}}]}]
Produces the message:
Coordinate {0, 0, 0} should be a pair of numbers, or a Scaled or Offset form.

Perhaps you want:
Show[
ParametricPlot3D[{Cos[t], Sin[t], t}, {t, 0, 2 Pi}],
Graphics3D[Arrow[{{0, 0, 0}, {Cos[Pi], Sin[Pi], Pi}}]]
]
Epilogs are 2D only...

2$\begingroup$ Was about to write a "hey I know something" comment, until I realized your "Epilogs may be 2D only" was not to suggest that it is possible but to state that Epilog only accepts 2D directives. $\endgroup$ Oct 14, 2013 at 19:17

$\begingroup$ @bobthechemist Oh yes, I can see I wrote that badly. I will disambiguate. Thanks! $\endgroup$ Oct 14, 2013 at 19:22

$\begingroup$ I have used the Show[graphic 1 graphic2] as a work around. The error message now suggests to me that epilog IS limited to 2D directives. $\endgroup$ Oct 14, 2013 at 19:54
