Earliest a Mage can get their own focus items?

I believe the epic only requires broom and shovel ... but as a "friendless guildless nobody", there's truly no point.

Some classes you can literally buy the epic for (on Blue at least), but the Mage epic doesn't have a multi-questable part, the way those epics do: it requires multiple drops (some extremely rare) from top-end raid mobs. It is literally impossible to acquire them without a raid force, and even if you had a raid force you'd still have to compete with other raid forces for those mobs ... and then compete with every other Mage in that force to get to loot it [You must be logged in to view images.

In short, I can safely guarantee that without joining a top-end raid guild (or somehow becoming amazingly good friends with one) you can not complete the epic.

But as for Najena, it's 100% soloable, if you start at the beginning and crawl your way through. There are a few places you won't want to go, but if you notice that your pet suddenly has 3 skeletons when you go into a certain room, you should still be able to gate out in time, and avoid that room next time. Once you learn it, you can easily solo to/from the crystal room.

The first part is something I genuinely would like to change, but it is true, I did come here without any real connections. I am currently looking for a guild that will take a learning player and let me raid with them one day though. This mage is something I want to make into a "forever main" and I'd like to hold a little hope that one day I'll be able to succeed at it, even if it takes 10 years.

But yep I do plan on giving Najena a shot again at some point, I was just expressing that I'm a little scared to hehe. Those "suddenly get three skeletons" situations happened quite a bit as far as I remember. xD
