/Agreed

thats been the tradiction since EQ1 with the epics 1, 1.5 and 2.0..... though the quests had the same lore and story line and related to each others there.

Note: Make the Staff of the Serpent for Coercers here ;)

Kunark was the Epic weapons and 50-60 increase, then velious came out and it was nothing but more content, kinda like EoF..difference being velious was widely considered the best raiding expansion in eq1 until PoP

Then like 85 expansions later, Omens of War came out and it had epic 1.5's and 2.0's. had to complete 1.5 to do 2.0. hence the way they were nick-named.

I get the feeling that they're moving away from the long quest lines(which I wouldn't even call the prismatic quest long) in favor of their signature quests. I've heard of the Flowing Cape of the dark lord (which if anyone still has the stats from beta, that'd be peachy, send it in a PM or post it here please).

In all fairness, I didn't mind many of the Claymore quests, just the downright stupid ones that were completely anti-group, such as Riddle of the vault when it came time to collect the Dar-slayers.
The damn camps could have been done away with and the fact that it's possible to fuck up any ring event by yelling a part of it and killing it to where it no longer respawns is what truly made the claymore painful, but in the end it provided just about the best tank jewelry, and was an easy path to get AAs.

I do hope they do have an epic quest hidden somewhere in the expansion. It gives the level-capped people something to do between raids. I'm not sure the Signature quests quite capture the essence of quests like Prismatic, Peacocks and Claymore series.

Hell I'm not even done with Claymore yet (two more DT runs ... and with eyes one-shotting people, we aren't touching that zone right now!) and I was really lookin forward to whatever big epic quest this expansion had to offer. I hope someone finds SOMETHING soon. Heh... I bet its out there, but we're not looking in the right spot.

Eyes one shotting people in DT? Damn, what happened in there? I have been out of game since August because I am spending a semester in Europe for college (19 days til Im back state side thank God, Europe is a nice place to travel to but I <3 America to live in). I have been keeping tabs on most forums as well as my guilds and haven't heard of that yet.

Something to do with resists being screwed or....?

Due to the combat changes a lot of the KoS and below raid zones are screwed up at the moment as not being properly scaled to reflect the stat changes.

Well DT was almost fine for us on 24th Nov. We are on the Euro servers too and we get updates after the US servers. I guess the update went in just after Elanie's attmept?

The two halves of the Amorhous Drake seem to hit for more is about the only issue left to fix I think. We left it, did Tarinax (easier than before - we seemed to do more dps than usual so I'm wondering if some of his resistances have been nerfed too hard) and Cruor. Nobody could be arsed to go back to do Amorphous by that time.

2nd level 70 epic.. anyone heard anything from any of the lore abut the 2nd sword?? remember the Claymore was one of 2 swords. and the 2nd was held "far to the east" ???

I think there's nothing out there... sorta sucks but I haven't seen anything.

I hope it just wasn't finished and will be released with unrest, because atm there aren't enough big quests to do for AA xp.
