Most difficult part / worst bottleneck of the Warrior epic quest?

[Snaggles]

I don’t main a warrior but I’ve always understood the bottleneck to be the scale. With only two sources for it and one being easy but a rat race, once awarded the rest seem to fall into place...again, as just an observer of events. Chardok is a frequent target but I expect guilds add sky island 5 and maestro as targets quickly after that (if not already).

Random drop luck can really play tricks on our minds but I’ve just never seen a rush to the other aspects. If those become bottlenecks post-scale it’s just the game being evil.

Biggest bottleneck is apparently you can't skip most of the epic with Sword of Runes in p99 like I did on live.

Well shit seems like none of us are getting epics anytime soon

Green scales and it's not even close

Either get a VP key and be in a competitive racing guild or poopsock Sev in a moderately competent guild

I don't even know if these ever get sold, it certainly seems like a pretty rare item since every guild taking down either of the 7 day dragon boss spawns have no end of warrior mains and alts that happily dish out some DKP for them. But if you *could* find a seller, expect to shell out 500,000 pp or something ridiculous

Everything else is free and rots constantly. Casual guilds will loot extra feargolem pieces that they will never be able to MQ and Spiroc wing blades will be on every lvl 46 warrior that bothers to ever enter Sky. Then spend a few hours in Chardok and everyone has that piece.

It's the green scales. Always has been

Wot?

The sword of runes combine was added much later after epics, in Velious.
The sword of tunes combine requires a red scabbard.
The red scabbard requires Green scales to make.

On p1999 when you receive the red scabbard, it is a different item # from the red scabbard you get after the first combine of swords and hilts. The first item # does not accept a sword of runes. Only the second red scabbard.

the scale

Warriors know what I'm talking about.

The only reason you get crickets for a million plat is because literally no guilds allow you to sell raid loot for plat for some reason. It would be way too obvious / suspicious

I just finished mine a few weeks ago.

To be fair I quit for several months, but including those months I went a full 2 years where green scales were the only drop I needed to do all the final turn ins.
