Rogue epic question

I'm not anywhere near getting this point, just somewhat curious for the future. From what I've heard, parts of the rogue epic are pretty much perma camped in order for people to sell the MQ. Are people largely forced into farming plat in order to get their epic? Or at least rogues? Seems to be the most common MQ. Provided that assumption is true, seems pretty messed up for that to be allowed to be monoplized like that. Hopefully I'm wrong though.

Rogue Epic:

• 2 Pickpocketed Pages - Just camp at one of them and before respawns at 10PM and 8AM (or whatever they are) log in, Pickpocket a few times
• Eldreth - 8 Hour respawn, AFK a character there with /logs on while you are at work. He says some text when you turn in the pages/milk to signify he despawned. Show up 7 Hours 55 Minutes after this time stamp and be ready to turn in to Eldreth
• Book of Souls - Tag along with a raid in PoHate. The book is supposed to have an 8 hour respawn, but it currently is "instanced", if you don't see it on your character, camp out and log back in and it will be there. If you have a guild, just join them in a PoHate clear
• Yendar - 8 Hour respawn again, he roams so the Eldreth method won't work. You will have to make a level 1 gnome or just leave an alt in Steamfont who can run his pathing (Spawns at the druid ring, walks towards LFay, stops about at the road, goes up the road away from LFay, then turns left and goes to the windmill... back and forth)... run this path on a character if you don't see him, check back in a few hours. Turning in and spawning Renux you will need a Druid or Ranger to Ensnare her, then cast Ensnare/Snare/Flame Lick a few more times to keep aggro while they kite it around and you backstab her to death.
• General - Call your guild to kill him. There's almost always a dark elf up you could turn in to spawn him.

Pickpocketting is just check back every 70 minutes and try. Eldreth, just figure out spawn timer, see if his next spawn is at a time you can be online and be there when that happens. Yendar check in every hour or two, call in a Druid to port to Steamfont to snare kite Renux for you. Hate and General you need a guild or friends for.

It isn't that undoable. Just takes you a week or two. Heaven forbid on an epic quest :P.

Haha I don't mind it taking time, but I don't want to waste my time simply because people perma camps the mob and end up having an extremely tight window to kill/pickpocket "x" mob. Especially if there's a better chance just farming up the plat to buy the MQ ya know?

I spent 3 1/2 weeks camping Vessel Drozlin for my chanter epic so trust us when we say that a rogue epic is cake, even with all the competition.

The rogue epic is insanely easy, you'll have no problem doing it.

I had to redo it recently for the guise of the coercer quest, and I think it took me one day to do the whole thing solo. Simply ask any 60 druid and they can solo Yendar for you. You can set up a General kill yourself, or easily do it with a guild.

I found most of the guys who are selling them for MQs are perfectly fine with letting someone who is questing their own epic or questing the guise of the coercer to have priority.

Huh, that's kinda shocking, but comforting to know haha. Thanks for the info.

you can come to red99 and not have this problem.

"you can come to red99 and not have this problem."

What a fail comment. How is the situation where people can kill one another at camps going to make camping his epic easier? Like he is going to be able to join red and kill the folks who are camping the epic for a MQ? All he'd be doing is trading an abundance of MQ problem for a pvp problem.
That whole "join red and you wont have this problem" comment is stupid. Now instead of trying to reason with an MQ camper he has to try to kill them, and that is easier?

And rogues are the kings of PvP eh?

I sometimes do the rogue epic, never had a problem finishing it in a few days. If you and your friends play in off peak times you might get lucky and have it done in an hour. It's not as bad as everyone says.

I was able to pp the notes during last Saturday's morning cartoons no competition and realistically that's going to be your biggest bottleneck of competition and will probably take a few spawns anyway because they don't always spawn with the note. It's not written in the rules that you can't pp the mob just because someone else is there either.
