I did my 1.0 in a weekend, started late Friday night, finished early Sunday morning. Which is actually longer than it can take others. As for 1.5, I've done most everything up to the actual raids.

As a monk I feel its a waste of time for my Epic 1.0. It does have better stats then the leather ornate gloves, but the camps are just horrible. I camped the named in Skyfire for about 4 hours with nothing (killed them on each spawn, no book). I won't even go into the Raster camps. I don't mind a good challenge, but sitting aroudn fighting with the other players on your server trying to get a mob is no fun and I will have nothing to do with it. SOE should really consider making the Raster spawn abit more, and the book at the beginning drop abit more often.

I was going to start my 1.5 until I seen you have to deal with the Tribunal. That was enough for me to say heck with it.

I've done my 1.0 on every character i've played from my little warrior and ranger to my enchanter.
i've completed my most of my 1.5 on my ranger has a couple kills left on that, completeded most of my 1.5 on warrior just needs most of the kills, and completeded my 1.5 for enchanter.

My enchanter is the only one that is working on 2.0 has a couple parts here and there for that

As a SK the Muckglider Breeder is a pain in the ***. It takes HOURS of camping to try and get it to spawn. IF your lucky only HOURS to spawn. I have been at it for days, and still working on it.

I've collected 4 pearlescent shards for my cleric 1.0 but still need to take down the Overking, Ixiblat and of course, Rage. Anyone want to help an altruistic (never have accepted a single payment for buffs or rezzes) Cleric on Maelin?

Per Pyrait's post. Lucky guy. It took me 3 weeks of steady camping to get just one drop.

Finished 1.0 for my Druid a while back. Worked some on 1.5, but don't see being able to get a raid force together to do the final fight, so not really bothering with it anymore. About the same with a lot of the new spells, but that's a whole other story.

I'm up to the PoFear part of my shaman's epic and i'm still deciding on epic or Bypass for my SK to start working on 1.5. I do however have my Iksar's real epic weapon.....Greenmist :-)

I'm stuck in my 1.0 epics on 2 different toons, each at the first major kill cause I'm not high enough to solo these mobs. My 51 ranger's stuck at the point in EK with all the reavers and my 52 necro's stuck at the point with the Herbalist in Chardok. Seems I have to wait for level 70 with a bunch of AA's to finish up. :-(

Part way through Magician 2.0, done with Paladin, Beastlord, and Bard 1.0, and working on the Shadowknight 1.0 currently.
#17 Oct 01 2005 at 4:09 PM Rating: Decent
I'm up to the point where soloing is not possible (at least not for someone in their late-mid-50's). My NEC is up to the Chardok encounter. Same happened to my retired Bard, once things started requiring a pretty powerful or big group, it came to a halt.

Hehe, Epic ?

I've been playing since about a month before Kunark was released and have been in 4 different guilds all dead now and the one I am in currently is so small now as not able to guild raid anything.

My main is finaly lvl 70 (Bst) mostly solo'd (about 70%) and to date have helped 11 people get there epic 1.0's. And 5 people get there 1.5's.

I have the last 2 battle's to get Bst epic but dont want to solo them. Would like at least one other person to help if not 2 for crowd control if nothing else (so if something goes south I dont have to start all over again).

All my toons except 2 are 55+ and I have done the solo parts on everyone of those epic 1.0's.

In my opinion the only reason I can see for even wanting the 1.0's is to be able to progress to next epic, the 1.0's being fairly, but not entirely, worthless now.

I would love to finish my Mains epic but have become resigned to that occuring only when 2 things can coincide:

1. Shimoj being up when any guildies are on
2. Said guildies dropping there xp grinding for about 10min. to watch my back during fights and maybe throwing something in while I work.

When I decided to start my Bst epic just recently (the easiest of all the epic's to complete) I finished all of it up to the last 2 fights in about 4 days. I got lucky with the scouts being up and the help of a guild mate (1) willing to take the time to help (thanks bro, really, really meant alot to me) that was about 4 mos. ago.

Now at 70 I would like to finish the epic on at least one of my toons just to "Git it done".

Mostly my own fault for being the kind of person who likes to help but has trouble asking for help myself in RL and ingame..

Sofurious

I finished my epic 1.5 with the help of some great friends and working on my epic 2.0 but that CoA part is a pain to get when you don't have access to CoA. Someday I will though.

epic 1.0?!?!?! ohmigods!!!! do you know how hard it is to even find a golem up in fear on the Bristlebane server!?!??! can we say...AoN farmers!!

To get your toons epiced, and more so for the 1.5 and 2.0, you _must_ have alot of very available and powerful friends or a very highend guild.

People take so much pride in getting their epics...and they should! But really, what about those who love this game but do alot of it solo? How are they supposed to ever have a chance? Maybe to make a soloable way to sidesweep the larger fights with side quests? Still has you working very hard to attain your epic but makes it...well, attainable =P

Got my 1.0 on my ranger on Christmas Eve 2002 - don't plan to do 1.5 even as I got a pretty good weapon setup and don't feel like begging people to help me with the raid events of 2.0 =)

Oh, and almost finished the 1.0 for my NEC twink solo now (OK, got a MQ of the PoSky cloak, but soloed the rest :P)

Working on monk epic 1.0, but unlikely i'll ever complete it, due to the lack of time to raid every day of the week that ends in a Y, and to the lack of high level friends, or a guild that 'helps each other out'..Lmao. Come on. The only way your gonna get help from a guild is if you have that special ability to BS with your keyboard the same way you have to BS with your mouth to get ahead today, and even then you still only have a small chance. I'm thinking of eventually just paying a level 70 to solo all the mobs that drop peices i need simply beacuse there is no other way to finish it, and that is if i can find a level 70 that isn't either raiding, or doesen't think he's above helping people under level 60.
