Shaman Epic
 

So I'm trying to understand the Shaman Epic. I am going to turn it in on my Druid who is max faction *meaning Your faction cannot get any better!* the Child's Tear, and then as my guild is fighting, pop over to my Shaman to loot. When I go to turn in the Scale, do I need to have Max Faction as well?

Everything I've read about it says you need max faction to receive your epic. I'll be starting mine soonish on Bigfat.

You need Max faction to turn in tear (anyone can do this).

You also need Max faction to turn in epic.
