Then at the bottom of pond I turn in the scale and get my epic correct ?

The MQ does nothing to change the need for having max'd faction. Both the MQ seller handing in the tear as well as you, the MQ buyer MUST have max'd your TrueSpirit faction. The entire Shaman Epic Quest is exclusively about faction. You can repeat the first bit of the quest ad nauseam until you are max factioned with TrueSpirit, then hand in the tear in CoM and do final fight (or have someone else on max faction hand it in).

The point of buying the MQ - as some have already explained - is that the Golems in PoFear are super contested. Also, the Iksar Broodling doesn't always spawn after a Golem dies. So if you want to avoid having to purchase an MQ you will need to be with a raid force/guild that can reliably contend for the Golems in Fear and then be there to loot the tear. Depending on your guild-situation it might just be faster for you to grind out the pp and buy the MQ.
