Odds of Epic Weapon

[Gratal]

I'm just curious if anyone can tell me how likely it is to get an epic weapon if you don't belong to one of the major guilds or have a million plat for an MQ? (Or however much they are)

I'm just asking because aside from not having a ton of high level friends I also need a piece from Venril Sathir and I think I heard TMO pretty much has him locked down.

Ranger BTW.

[Asap]

The pulsing green stone will be next to impossible to get without poopsocking VS, or spending 800k. Once Velious lands, most of the epic bottlenecks are relieved.

[Luchino]

Ninja fte and have tmo or fe kill it for you. Prob your best bet.

Get to 60, app to TMO, sit in the same zone 16 hours a day tracking mobs for a few weeks, get your epic. Congrats. Otherwise? 1%?

[Thulack]

No chance.

[Khaleesi]

Depends on the epic/class.
Anything that doesn't involve a dragon or the planes(do any not?) is going to be significantly more convenient and will mostly be a time requirement camping lesser mobs up until the final steps.

However you would be surprised at the generosity of guilds and individuals.

Best thing to do is manage all the parts you can alone, but always seek advice.
Then when you reach the tough bits, come on the forums and ask for help.

Despite TMO's reputation, they are not above assisting you.

Pretty much.
Much like TMO's reputation suggests, they are not above assisting you for the right price whether that be PP or $$. PST to Eccezan for $$ transactions though. :)

[webrunner5]

Yes TMO kings of RMT and never get banned. Kind of funny how that works 0.0

You don't know that. Jesus. I bet you piss sitting down.

[Cippofra]

Yes, getting your epic is impossible unless you sell your soul to TMO and work for them 87 hours a day 7 days a week. This is why no one on the server has their epic unless they are in TMO. Play the game, ignore the forums.

You basically have a 0% chance of getting your epic right now.

I mean, that's what epics are, really. They are hard to get. You either are in a raiding guild, or you have a lot of money, or you have a bunch of high-level friends AND get very lucky. Even in Velious it's not like you can just waltz into KC and find VSR and solo him at level 50.

If you don't want to do at least one of those things, then you shouldn't have an epic. People rage about TMO, but this is classic imo.

[Atmas]

You can pretty much ignore any post that doesn't break it down by class. You are going to have a tougher time with epics that require an item from a contested mob. Shouldn't really have too much difficulty if you are a:
Paladin
Rogue
Enchanter
Shaman
Monk
Cleric
Warrior

Some of those classes have a bit more difficulty than others. The classes I didn't list have mobs that are highly contested, but there is no epic mob you have no shot at. My apologies if my list is off, I don't really remember every item needed for a lot of epics.

I will add though, that as Tecmos said epics aren't supposed to be something easy to get. Not a bunch of people had them in my experience on Kunark, and you definitely need strong support to do many of them.

[webrunner5]

There's 0% proof of their RMTing and known cheating / exploiting.

I am sure SOME people in TMO have RMT'ed but I bet SOME people in EVERY guild have RMT'ed. Hell maybe you have? Maybe I have? Why do you just keep bringing up the TMO shit every thread you post?? God, give it up. TMO is not going away trust me any time soon. :p And Nilbog is not going to ban them so you are just wasting your time.

Well, he did ask about 1 class specifically so telling him to ignore people that are answering his specific question is a bit off base. And if you consider his "not in a raid guild and don't have high-level friends and don't have a buncha money" then basically every epic is impossible for him unless he is going to change one or more of those things. Even a rogue epic is probably out of reach for a person who needs to ask about the chances of completing a ranger epic (not slamming the guy, just pointing out someone who doesn't know the answer to that question already is probably not someone who has been on the server long enough to make 50k to buy a ragebringer).

[quido]

I'm sure there are isolated incidents of RMT within TMO just like there is everywhere, but I can confidently assert the nonexistence of any grand RMT scheme within the guild! Anyone who takes an honest look at the holdings of our core would have trouble believing otherwise. We're fucking nerds and just want to get ahead in the game; I wouldn't trade my p99 presence for anything less than a million dollars.

How many chars do you have in TMO?

I will do this on trakanon in return for the trakanon guts for the bard epic. Thank you.

[Asap]

0. This guy is like 70 years old and plays on 3 different Everquest servers. Perhaps he does know what he's talking about, his entire life is Everquest.

[Faerie]

on red we get peoples epics all the time mainly to help fight off the enemy guild. just got a bard epic yesterday - trak guts then white scale off vox

Sorry to take this a little off topic, but I think OP's question was answered. VS is hugely contested on blue, and you'll have to get REALLY lucky to get him outside of TMO/other big raid guild.

Bamzal, who got epic and when did you guys get Trak?

[Millburn]

I'm sure there are isolated incidents of RMT within TMO just like there is everywhere

This is the same defense we saw over on Fippy over the nuclear arms race we call the SK MQ2 Wars. Specific guilds were guilty of doing it but they each used the other doing it as a justification for their participation. It implies you're complicit with it happening and
don't want to or don't care enough to deal with it (IE make a stand, whistle blow etc..).

In the end the whole notion that everybody was participating in the MQ2 stuff was a giant farce, it was a small group of people in two specific guilds that ruined it for the whole server. Nobody within those guilds who knew about it had the balls to step up and call anybody out on it and provide evidence.

[RevengeofGio]

Might be a silly question, but why is VS so contested? I was a pretty annoying bastard of a 16 yr old back in the day and somehow I got my ranger epic pre raid guild.

It does help being able to track and maybe they got me my epic so I'd shut up ;)

Gnarled staff for wizard epic (only source even after post-Velious epic balancing patch) and Kunark class legs

[RevengeofGio]

So basically 3 classes need pieces off one mob? Not guarunteed to drop either I take it?

[Nirgon]

I think getting an offhand swiftwind would be a good goal. Then I'd try and get a conflag dagger if I wasn't primarily interested in raiding. Shit's gold on trash mobs, plus it doesn't pull hoss threat like Earthcall.

Correct. Gnarled is like 25-50% chance for one drop, Green Stones are like 33-50% up to two drops.

Faydedar is guaranteed a druid pod each time though.

SoE really hated Wizards for some reason.

At one point in the PoP-era, they tinkered with some faction and broke the broken golem spawn, which caused it to get gibbed as soon as it popped by the other denizens in fear (probably Fright/Terror/Dread).

I was bound in fear and would check every single day by solo'ing enough mobs to run an Eye of Zomm over to the spawn for *over a month*.

In constant contact with a GM, their staff finally found out that the spawn was indeed broken, and after I begged him to pop the mob so I could get a group to kill it - he simply handed me the oil and said "I think a month is long enough".

(I'm not making this up. It's how I got my epic)

LOL I remember this shit, when citizen had a fuckload of SK's sitting on trak and they would all just HT him the second he spawned. Citizen was like the TMO of this server, but much more blatant cheating.

Yes, I recall when this happened. On my server at one point GM would just give anyone who had the piece to hand in to the golem and zoned into fear the oil.

There are a couple of other things that made me wonder about the wizard hate. Skyfire evac point for instance. At one point in PoP I even hear they considered giving Strike of Solsek a percentage chance to backfire and cause 300 damage to the caster.

By your logic you condone murder because some people do it and you are aware that happens, even if you aren't doing it and you don't know who does it.

Edit: Actually saying that gives too much credence to your illogical belief that TMO members are more likely to even RMT than anyone else, but it was probably not worth the time to try to make a point to a certain mindset anyway.

It was really bad on PVP servers - they gutted Manaburn (I think this impacted PVE as well, with some cap on the damage that made it absolutely awful) and there were tons of limitations - you could only do a certain % of health maximum with a nuke, all nukes only did a certain % of their damage against players anyway, etc.

Made all the high damage nukes absolutely worthless.

And don't get me started on Wizard vs Magician, where at one point (PoP I think) did 80% of a wizard's nuke with a storebought spell (ours was a high end boss drop of course) yet had the pet which beat out Wizard DPS all by itself :|

They seemed to ease up a bit later on with the familiars and later content like Omens of War.

[Tux]

I doubt you have any chance.

I went to check on Verina Tomb (a far, far lower priority target then VS, I'm sure), and there was 3 bots at there at the spawn point.

The state of game regarding these kind of spawns is just absurd. I don't require an epic to enjoy the game, so I'm just going to play around it all and have fun where I can. I suggest you do the same, or guild up and join the poop-socking party.

One nice thing about not getting an epic is you can look for upgrades in Velious, which will make it more fun/interesting when that time comes.

[Ele]

Verina Tomb on live also had the benefit of weekly server resets. As it stands now enchanters are at the mercy of the RNG.

The (kunark) CT skin was so rare on live, every wizard would have probably given up on getting it here if it was like that :P.

even if your odds were even, it would be odd to even audit the odds

[TarukShmaruk]

The (kunark) CT skin was so rare on live, every wizard would have probably given up on getting it here if it was like that :P.

I remember hearing about this but I don't know of any first-hand reports - IIRC it cockblocked almost every Wizard on every server except a handful that were able to complete it (it was of course one of the last epics to get completed by any reasonable number of people) because the Cazic Skin was something like 1/32 or 1/56?

On the internet? Why?

There are wizards with epics on the server?

Not classic

I have detailed files

[Beaniron]

I should find out what TMO charges to kill Kirin Vil and Keeper of the Tombs.

[Nirgon]

Pally epic mob in Nek?

Charm a town front guard with a 60 enchanter, complete heal it.

Rune yourself on the enchanter, roll a celestial elixir as it starts to fade.

If charm breaks? Rapture Kirak, charm town front guard again.

However, I think they may have fixed town front guards (pras Classic)... in that case you can kill it with your paladin tanking (have at least Valorium... not like deep water pieces are hard to get here), cleric to CH and definitely an epic rogue for DPS. He should drop easy if you just patch heal yourself to save the cleric a lil mana after you've stun spammed him. Quick aggro tip: cast deepwater bracer to pull, cast holy might, cast regular stun (without item), it will be on top of you then with godly threat.

Keeper of tombs in the hole? He's a pickle.. you can't track him from any of the zone ins iirc. So you have to clear down a bit every time to pick him up.

Then again, I'd say the MQ would be buyable for 15k. Put up an auction post and bump it or try running a team down there after a server repop. I highly doubt he's contested.

Miragul might be another issue but I think you got that done from the looks of your post.

Not quite. This is the progress I've got so far towards my Epic.

SoulFire acquired.
Ghoulbane acquired.
Maxed Deepwater Knights faction.
Bucket of Pure Water to cleanse the Tainted Sword.
Gleaming Crested Breastplate acquired.

So what I still have to do:

Get Book of Scale
Kill Miragul
Turn in stuff for Fiery Avenger
Get Crested Sword
Get Crested Shield
Turn them in for Mark of Atonement
Get Fiery Defender

[Nirgon]

Miragul -- is a little tougher than people say he is. You can really botch that fight if you're not ready.

Kirak is a chump. Seen him taken down by a shaman and a monk unslowed. Just bring what I noted in the guide.

Sword -- probably buy it unless you're in a guild and they love you enough to check on it with ya.

Book of Scale -- buy one, trust me.

Final turn in -- fear gets aoe cleared pretty regularly, ezpz

You said in the other thread that you're only level 20 and MQ'd the few parts of your epic that you have.

You should really do some leveling, make friends on the server who will help you later, and calm down. Kind of pathetic to see someone MQ 1/2 of his epic at level 20 and then constantly begging for strangers to do the rest of it for him.

Not begging, said I might ask. And I am leveling right now. I dinged 21 this morning.

But I have yet to find a guild that does planar raids and is willing to take me in at this level, so making friends isn't exactly easy.

[Aaron]

You should get to 46 before worrying about finding a guild that will take you to the planes. Once you're 46, you can tag along with anyone easily.

[Beaniron]

You should get to 46 before worrying about finding a guild that will take you to the planes. Once you're 46, you can tag along with anyone easily.

But I want to get to know people that are on the raiding scene in a guild before I break into the planes later, so when I do start raiding I'm not a stranger to everyone in the guild. I shouldn't have to go through 46 levels of grinding just to be eligible for a more established guild.

...then again, nothing is as it should be around here, so maybe I should just shut up and get the leveling done.

Apology accepted. And I'm just trying to be prepared for later. Is that really such a bad thing?

[Nirgon]

Uh yeah get at least 52 before doing the rest of this stuff.

To go to plane of sky you will have to be 46.

Epic isn't that big a deal. Clay guardian shield + sword of mourning is *plenty* till then.

I suppose you're right. I've done quite a bit up to this point, I should focus on the leveling.

I made a post in my guild discussion thread saying that I'm going to lay low until I reach level 40, then start looking for a guild again.

Getting back on topic though; some epics are easier than others. If the epic in question requires a high-value target to be killed, such as Trak, you can expect to have to pull some strings or pay some high dollar to get at it. I think TMO charges something like $250 for the Trak drop needed for the Bard epic.

[Ruenaros]

WTB simulated maintenance day repops.

[Stinkum]

And I'm just trying to be prepared for later. Is that really such a bad thing?

#1 - Take a deep breath and calm down.
#2 - Realize that there is no rush to get your epic today. You are only level 21.
#3 - The fun part is not pixels on a screen, but the process of EARNING an item through your own hard work and the help of friends that YOU made organically on the server through grouping.

What you have done thus far is MQ half of your epic before level 20, and begged on the forums repeatedly for strangers to do the rest of your epic for you.

In other words, you come off as extremely entitled and a pixel-obsessed. Stop stressing out and begging for hand-outs, and get out there and group. I promise you will eventually make friends and find a guild of like-minded people that you enjoy playing EQ with, but judging from your personality I certainly wouldn't enjoy guilding with a person like you.

Good luck.

Maybe you're right, and I apologize for that, but how am I supposed to respond to something like this?

Just...maybe you're right, I should just let it go and hope that people think better of me for it.

I think TMO charges something like $250 for the Trak drop needed for the Bard epic.

Okay, maybe not real money, but something like 200k Plat.

Level 21 pally complaining about getting his epic? Really dude? You got 39 long ass levels ahead of you. As far as EXP'ing goes, you're like 10% done. You should stop wasting time on the forums and EXP.

We already discussed that and thtt I was in the wrong and dropped it. Why did you have to bring it back up?

I was wrong, I'm not going to obsess about pixels anymore.

I got my FD on my Paly at 48. Doesn't proc until 50 btw. Can't get even get FA until 46, by which point I'm sure you will be in a guild that does some planar raids.

Verina Tomb on live also had the benefit of weekly server resets. As it stands now enchanters are at the mercy of the RNG.

Wait, but that's not classic!

I'm kidding. My point is the whole scene is insane, that this kind of content is simply denied to casuals and that I don't see how anything can be done about it development wise, the problem is the players. The solution is up to the individual players to not let the autistic weirdos ruin their own experience on p99.
