I am not saying this will happen to you, but my plan was to keep camping in Seb to get good drops and hopefully play for the MQ. But you are not yet able to camp there, but soon will be. And then you will get some good drops, and just save and save, even on the little things that a lot of people "pass" on, as they all add up.
And you do not need to join a guild to get one, but that is one avenue. If you find a guild where you like the people etc, and feel it is right, join it for that reason (not to get epic). You can still function and be an asset to groups in the interim [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
I know probably not what you want to hear, but this was my plan of attack, until I was jolted one night, in a good way, where some awesome people made a memorable night in my p99 life [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Oh no, I totally get it. I know there are multiple avenues to the end-state. Back on live, I had something similar happen to me on my rogue (before epics were really understood as to what you could cut out of them, or skip over) - killed Phinny for his robe 167 times over the course of about 9-10 months with no luck on the robe drop...joined a guild called Radiant at level 53, and on day three of being in guild I got a tell from an officer asking what I was doin' in kedge. I explained that I was looking for Phinny and later, that he was up. I didn't expect much- I was the low guy on the totem pole. Worse, another guild had just started to pile people into the zone but the officer whipped up some groups and got there around the same time.
Most amazing thing happened; I was thinking this was going to be some sort of mob staredown/killstealing fight that you hear all the big guilds whining about, but soon we're both engaging as a collective team - they needed Phinny for the Bard spine, I needed it for the robe.
Wouldn't you know it, both items dropped.
Some people are just fucking awesome.
