Warrior and Mage epics took the longest to complete. The queen in Chardok was almost never killed, anywhere, and therefor the quest piece from her was a bottleneck.
FoH killed the original Naggy/Vox.
People shared information on boards then just as they do now, some things were kept semi-secret, but not most.

I'm curious on the Epic count. Even if we say 1000, there were what, 30 servers back in the day? If so that'd average out to 33 per server. And with 14 classes, that'd average out to a little over 2 per class per server. That doesn't even take into account top-heavy servers.
Of course you were just picking a number to emphasize that Epics were common-ish, so it's not to be taken literally. Just kind of weird to think about considering some classes aren't even considered for some raids unless they have their epics here (clerics/rogues/enchanters). And that in the last two years there might have been just as many Rogue Epic MQ's on P99 as there were Epics completed in total during that 4 month Epics -> Velious time frame.
