45 Shaman, Preparing for Endgame

[Deehorsey]

Hi EQ Family,

I'm looking for a little guidance on where to aim my efforts as I start to prepare for endgame content. Currently, I am leveling and farming plat, nearly enough for my JBB now. I've completed a few steps towards my epic, and will be looking to get a child's tear hopefully sooner than later, as I ding to hit the planes.

Short of that, I am uncertain about what to do beyond grinding and farming. Is there Faction I should be working on? Or other things I can do to be efficient with my time?

Thanks in advance.
