Adopting Bard Epic changes from Live?

[eqvoid]

Some of the epics (and more specific here, Bard) are a factor of 10-20X harder to obtain than other classes mainly due to the fact they rely on heavily contested raid NPC's. In regards to the Bard epic, they introduced the following changes to "un block" players from obtaining their epics...

- In Kedge Keep, a harbinger of the seas can help adventurers get their epic 1.0 pieces that would normally drop from Phinigel Autropos.
- In Dreadlands, a harbinger of frost can help adventurers get their epic 1.0 pieces that would normally drop from Gorenaire.
- In Skyfire Mountains, a harbinger of flame can help adventurers get their epic 1.0 pieces that would normally drop from Talendor.


How about it? While I don't normally don't cry over fairness, they changed this on Live for a reason. Some classes are basically handed their epics at 50 (and usually before), while others can never obtain them.
