Default Adjust Epic Quests

Now I know it's not classic, or Kunark, or even Live (I think) but could it be possible to adjust epic quests to not be such exercises in tedium or down right boredom, culminating in a mad dash to get your friends to the mob that you've been camping for the last month in first?

I just came to the realization that I'm not having a whole lot of fun sitting on a lvl 1 character staring top down at a room in Neriak with 1 or 2 other lvl 1's hoping that a mob we all need will spawn, also hoping that when I afk (you know for work, sleep, food, etc) it doesn't spawn. I've got a lot of time to post unworkable questions on forums right now because of this. The simple solution is to bump of up the spawn timers by something like a factor of 24, instead of a 2 - 7 day respawn, a 2 - 7 hour. Might be too much of a cut but I'm on the hurry and wait half of the equation.

For other classes the situation is better and worse. Better because most guilds have reasons to fight in the planes and gods/dragons, worse because those same gods/dragons are on multi day respawn timers and are even more contested because the epic item needed is not the only desireable that comes from these heavily contested targets. In a situation like this I'd expect to introduce the desired epic item to a different NPC's loot table and put it's respawn timer on par with some of these other epic NPC's.

As an aside to anyone who would argue this wouldn't be fair to the people that already have their epics, EQ isn't particularly fair or balanced so congrats on being first and getting it while it's hard. Secondly while your implementing these changes you can kill the ability to MQ half the epics... but let me go grab those cleric/rogue/shaman epics for my low level alts first.

I'm 90% positive nothing will come from this post but hey, I'm bored and I've checked back into EQ at least 2 dozen times in the process of typing this and I now need to afk to go do some work... Verina Tomb spawn inc.
