I bought or traded for at least part of most of my epics.. Only exception Green Scale which I bought for DKP. I am firmly in the "MQing is a service" column.

Sweaty neckbeard MQ would be the only way many would even have a remote chance to Epic a character. Not saying its fair or best.
Take away Epic MQ and it would just mean less Epics. You farm all those apples and sheep/cow/pig parts you eat? NVM. | ||

I think most people that actually care about getting an epic would prefer to be in the raids themselves than to spend half their life farming plat to make someone else rich. Its a shit system. I for one wont do it. Epics be damned. | |||

Take the earth staff in Hate for the mage epic for example. 100% the only way you'd have a shot at getting that is to join the top 1 or 2 raiding guilds. They basically have the Magi on lock down. You have no other choice. White dragon scales are another good example, although not quite as bad as the earth staff. Other examples are drops you'd need off a mob like CT. Point being, depending on which epic you're talking about, other than an MQ your only option would be to earn DKP with the top 1 or 2 raiding guilds on the server. | |||

Well,if one of your friends happened to be an. enchanter interested in farming hate you could get an earth staff,maybe. Even the guilds that do a lot of hate minis, it's all on the back of people willing to track the horrible windows.
The easy epics like rogue,cleric,monk you can do with friends. They also happen to be some of the best epics. Anything from a contested raid mob wouldn't happen. | ||

Like my post mentions, its not the best or a fair system but the way the game is (because of spawn timers andhuman nature) people are gonna people. Whether its that they have zero going on in their life, have (virtually) unlimited funds (the millionaire clubbers) people with the most time to devote WILL monopolize and monetize the content. Same as in 2000 as it is now. Never epiced back then, i had a job, a band and a family. I know the deal now and it does not interest me. Grind a countdown timer or endless plat grinding? No thanks. For me. The people who have mobs on permanent lockdown are the type who peaked in high school and need to relive the glory to feel something. Take away MQ and yoy would need to gather a force AND get lucky with drops and win the roll. Then rinse and repeat. At least you get to choose the non raid waiting around option and farm plat by killing endless guards or plat rich nameds. Just choose. | |||

There are only a few epics that are really worth it anyway. There are multiple where you won't really notice a difference in your class.
