I would argue that it is not just simply poor game design. Everquest intended, successfully imo, to create a sense of value in items and encounters by making them difficult to obtain.

Velious would resolve a lot of issues with epics. In addition to new content freeing up spawns, many quests get adjusted to be not so bottlenecky.
