Level 70 is Demi-god status... I doubt we'll be able to breach the pantheon

Rogue epic *CAN* be done in 6 hours, if you're lucky, but most rogues spend weeks trying to get their note from Tani. It's entirely too rare of a 'drop.' Sure, the rogue epic was gimped heavily but it's not as easy as everyone thinks.

On another note, I bet they're going to incorporate the current epics into the Epic2.0 quests. There are so many mages, necros and warriors who will be pissed off that they need to, finally, go and do their epic.


Not to mention Shadowknights. All the old bottlenecks all over again.

If they add new epics that require old epics as a quest item, they had better fucking fix all the problems with the old epics.

SoE policy is that old content does not exist. Hard to fix something that doesn't exist.

Holy shit, rogues needed a rare drop? Oh good god, the world is ending!

Original mage epic:

Rare (1 out of 30 kills) drop off of a 7 day spawn god (Innoruuk), changed about a year after to a rare drop off a 3 day spawn, then changed to a 1 in 100 drop off any revenant.
Rare (Average of 100 hours or so) drop off a roaming mob in South Karana
4 rare drops (20 hours total or so) from Najena
Semi Rare drop from Phinigel Autropos
Raid to 7th isle of PoA for a crown

Among other fun drops to get.

The mage epic was hard as hell.

The rogue epic? it was easy.

But, but...when GoD came out, they said that IT was the second to last expansion.

No, they only said that they were working on GoD + another expansion, not that GoD would be the second to last one.

Life... is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable, because all you get back is another box of chocolates. You're stuck with this undefinable whipped-mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while, there's a peanut butter cup, or an English toffee. But they're gone too fast, the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits, filled with hardened jelly and teeth-crunching nuts, and if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is a... is an empty box... filled with useless, brown paper wrappers.

Mages don't really need their epic, they can get along fine without it. Ragebringer is a major part of most rogues' equipment up till late elemental/time.

The mage epic used to be kickass before all the other pets were introduced and upgraded.

That one indeed looks crappy.

Isn't the other Enchanter epic a snake staff or something?

Well, I heard it from a third party source, so they probably misinterpreted it and passed the information on to me (among others).

I weep for the enchanters still playing and the "Hurr paddle me plz hurr hurr" jokes they'll have to take if this has a buff on it.

Bzzt wrong.

Epic pet is still the best DPS pet dependent on the situation. If its proc can land on mobs, it is far and away the best DPS still. That proc is frequent, and nasty.

So, the epic is still quite the nice pet. not to mention the 1hb is pretty damn nice till you hit elementals, too. And that it is the best looking epic in the game

Shit. I look at it for Deth as a necessary step someday. The advantage is that someday gets farther away the more I play my shaman (thus Deth doesn't need his epic). I get ill just thinking about trying to pull people together for my mage epic.

Arcanists got silly-difficult quests the first time around. Druid epic? Not too hard. Shaman epic is silly easy; I can solo most of it. Cleric, little tough but it's the best epic around. Rogue? pshaw. Beastlord? pfft. Paladin? Why bother?

Arcanists got the shaft. Looks like the new graphics with their long-ass-staff images, just proves it.
