I care about the integrity of the server in 2020, which involves making non-classic adjustments in order to preserve the classic feel as much as possible (rooted dragons, nerfed clickies fall into this category).

The
classic feel did not include requiring magicians have to buy their epic from farm crews. They actually had a decent chance to obtain it, which is the whole point of this bug report.

Also I don't see what's wrong with selling epic MQs for plat. If anything, this allows casual mages who would have zero shots at looting the staff at a raid to (painstakingly) farm the plat and buy it.

You mean those casuals who have a million platinum? /boggle It is more likely that the person buying the staff is the 7th alt of a neck beard player than a casual with many hundreds of thousands of plat. There
are still casual guilds that help players get their epics; I am in one. I don’t really have a problem with selling MQ; I do have a problem with unguilded alts violating server rules to deny others the ability to complete the quest on their own.

You don't like farm crews farming it? Find a few friends and farm it yourself. Don't have friends? Farm plat and buy it. So many options.

Those farm groups are violating the server rules by camping out in zone. I have fantastic friends who have helped me kill Magi P'Tasa 10 times so far and given me a chance at about 4 others. They have dropped what they were doing and come to my aid selflessly many times. I don’t think any of them would violate the rules and camp out in zone, nor would I ask them to. I am not sure I would want to be part of a guild that does encourage that.

If you disable MQ's or remove the farming crews, your only options will be to become a top guild member, play EQ like a full time job, and wait a few years until you are maybe allowed to spend your DKPs on the staff.

I don’t think you even read my original post since you are making these silly arguments. Chances are if this is eventually addressed as it should be, I’ll have finally gotten lucky, and it won’t impact me. But it does not mean every magician should have to go through what I have gone through.
I think you are just trolling this thread. Why don’t you just go haunt someone else.
