WTF you talking about?
Enc epic is a living snake staff - a clear reference to Moses channelling god-like power.
The real question, is why the snake staff - a symbol of medicine - isn't the epic for a healer class (like shaman or cleric).

The crazy thing about that Moses comparison is that the turning the staff into a serpent wasn't what got the Pharaoh all hot and bothered, because after Aaron (Moses' brother, who is actually who does it) does, Pharoah has his sorcerer's do it as well. Then Aaron's serpent eats the sorcerer's serpents, which I guess is the thing that displays god's favor for Aaron/Moses.
Moral of the story... turning staves into snakes is no biggie, but Egyptians apparently took snake fighting seriously.
Also, this post is dumb. Most epics are pretty huge utility items. Bard completely changes the class (literally only singing mod in the game, and 1.8 to all mods + weapon), rangers get a 50% main hand slow weapon, war blue blade is like 90 ATK, free pet haste on ench epic, rogue epic super easy to obtain 15 dmg piercer + haste + ATK... like, some are better than others, but they're all worth getting except maybe Paladin and arguably SK.
