On this top-heavy server, the time to get the shaman epic done was before the Fear revamp. The MQ for the tear was dirt cheap, relatively speaking.

It was even cheaper than the JBB assuming you paid a Druid to help max your faction with the teleport Butcherblock / Freeport scam.
That time window is done. Not much to suggest as it's a lot harder to obtain with the adjusted spawn times of the target, with far more competition. Myself, I'm currently leveling a character class in a casual manner with an end quest that is a lot easier to complete. Less disappointment that way.

This is exactly my sentiment too. ^^^
I remember when shaman epics were very cheap a while back. I quit, came back to game after velious had been patched in and other changes too, and suddenly the tear is 60k or more? I was shocked.
I am pretty sure I recall it being less than 30k for sure, which is not too outlandish. But, 60k now?
I don't think it's a matter of spawn times hurting it, I think it's a matter of greedy people bottlenecking the tear to sell for MQ more than anything.
I am not going to mention guilds but I know for a fact one guild which advertises itself as "casual" that will gobble the tears up any chance they get as I seen it with my own eyes while being in that guild.
They didn't need it, did not give the tear to anyone to use, instead banked it for MQ.
I just wonder how many of these tears they have, as I left that guild shortly after this.
I understand why people are greedy and enjoy making plats but sometimes the way they go about it just puts a bad taste in my mouth.
That's pretty much why I don't care for raid guilds on this server. There's just way too much greed and disregard for other players on the server, and this is magnefied when the loots start revolving around MQuestable epic drops or other high end items that can be sold for plats.
I realize the server can't be a utopia, but ffs the greed is on a whole other level once you get to 50-60 lvl, and start seeing how pixel-crazed some players are.
