you and others like you have totally missed the point

many epics coudlnt be completed until you were a certain level. the quest giver simply wouldnt talk to you or accept the items. Even the rogue epic has an NPC that wont talk to anyone below level 50 and that's the easiest to complete

IMO epic MQ's should be removed entirely so that people legitimately trying to do their quest dont get blocked out by farmers
WRONG - No epic quest NPC before luclin came out had a min level req and if you disagree with this you have never truly played eq back in its heyday.

This. Kender is simply incorrect. A FEW EPICS had a level 50 CHAT restriction I believe on the NPC conversation. THIS HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE TURN-IN WORKING, AS WE FOUND OUT ONCE THE QUESTS WERE SOLVED. MANY QUESTS HAD NON-TRIGGERED DIALOGUE THAT YOU DID NOT HAVE TO COMPLETE.

Only 2-3 classes epic quests had a meaningful "Hail" restriction that prevented anyone below 50 from triggering the dialogue to cause a despawn/repop/pop. Etc. that I can recall. If you wanted to make it classic you would need to do forum archive research and learn which NPCs/epics were impacted by the sub-50 "Hail"/chat/dialogue restriction.

The majority of epics were not affected by the level 50 chat/hail restriction because the dialogue was discovered to be meaningless unless triggers/depops based on DIALOGUE were necessary.

You obviously didn't play 1999-2001 era. As previously mentioned in the thread, people recall Telin Darkforest not responding in classic, but he would accept the items anyway as it didn't require dialogue to depop/trigger anything. He took the items no problem.

Pretty sure the beastlords epic quest started the whole min level to spawn epic mob (you couldn't spawn the spirits prior to 51, if i recall correctly) or hand in items.
