There was nothing in the changelog for it actually, other than the internal epic development thread stating they had been turned on for the blue server after testing, so I threw that in there [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Any chance there will be server wide messages for the first player of each class to obtain their epic?

"Nilbog: Niblek's Gems quest rewritten. (multiquestable)"
I lost a BS/ruby a while back due to that, bc someone told me to hand them in one at a time lol. What are my chances of a refund heh? =)

I don't have time to play.

I'm playing anyway.

*New Epic Quests*

We are pleased to announce that we have implemented new "Fiery Avenger"
style quests for every class in the game (including paladins). The
ultimate reward for each quest boasts a custom model with unique
particle effects. We think that you will be pleased.

Good luck to everyone on your quest.
