Quest Issue: Shaman Epic: Iksar Broodling in PoF

[Dentalplan]

To the top! Would be nice to see some comment from the devs here.

I repeated step one 40 times~. 27 Turn ins took me to warmly.
I did blackdire, 2 CoM pages, 1 Ghiosk to get max warmly.

The go-to method on live was woe/envy/marr's promise turn-ins. Only took about 3-4 rounds to max out. Idk why you would do CoM reports 8 times, holy shit. That's what you're trying to skip. It must be way easier here than it was on live. The courier alone took me 2 straight days of camping on live, probably at least 20 hours, and Neh`Ashiir is a pain in the ass too.

Would also be interested to see a comment from devs on this. Will it be fixed or should we plan on just doing it the post-nerf way?

Still wondering about this, as it's a very significant part of the shaman epic. Is this going to be fixed?

I've been doing some research into the earliest implementation of the Shaman epic. Some of the sources I've found suggest that the Iksar Broodling spawn mechanic was different than the version we see here. Here's a link to a late 2000 walkthrough of the Shaman epic, it even lists the pre-upgrade spear stats with the effect as a proc.

And here's a post on Allakhazam's page for the broodling:

I haven't found anything that suggests the golems were part of the Shaman epic earlier than the 2001 revamp of the planes that made them more serious minibosses. I'd guess that's when the change happened.

This is pretty important. It's a hugely significant part of the epic. Would love to get some comment one way or the other.

Page 1. Feel like there's plenty of evidence here to support this.
