As far as epics go, paying for everything sounds extremely boring and lame. Part of the fun with epics is the feeling of accomplishment having done the whole quest. Not only the great feeling when you finally finish all the grindy solo parts, but also having people come together to help you with the portions that you need multiple groups (or at least a group) to take down. That’s what EQ is all about.

If you’re paying for your entire epic you might as well go play WoW or some other “single player MMO”. Farming plat solo and then buying your epic and avoiding all interaction with others…seems like you’re missing the point of what makes EQ great

This game has plenty of solo oriented classes/content, I'm not sure what's up with this "group or gtfo" mentality that I've been seeing on the forums lately. There's nothing like a good dungeon crawl with some buddies, but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy the game doing some solo stuff, especially when you have limited playtime. I'm not trying to say to avoid people at all costs, I'm just saying epics aren't necessarily as difficult to acquire as people think they are. You don't need to be this hardcore raider doing crazy things in the middle of the night to make it happen. Monk epic especially is not that difficult, you might need some raid help for a few of the parts but you can get that pretty easily in any guild as a casual. People are pretty generous around here, ask around and you will find help eventually if you don't wish to go the MQ route.
