Sounds like a rant to me.
nilbog, i am on your team. you put in variance (not classic) to help the casual. i believe removing MQing from epics would do the same. sadly forum posts cant convey the manner in which im speaking. I really am being sincere and think this would be a change in the right direction. the only low levels i ever saw with epics on live in classic were deleved rogues on rallos.

DE-leveled being the key word. noone was getting their epic in classic at 20. there is no way thats intended. it would be like low levels running around in planar somehow. is the reason its allowed is because its classic? i mean i dont understand the reasoning behind it.

Wells, I always hoped to get an mq for quillmane cloak for my magician epic on live, so as far as it being classic, it is. If you're purely referring to players < lvl 45 obtaining epics, there's an open bug report needing more information and discussion.

As of now a good ec trader has the best chance to get an epic for any future characters, don't even have to play the game to get an epic.

okay lets assume all epics being mqable is classic. do you think its intended? we remove classic bugs, we remove classic exploits which i am glad. we put in variance to help. i do not see anything good out of making epics MQable.

as for the lev cloak, i only remember mages paying for loot rights not the mq. i too played a mage on rz and i do not remember their being a market for epic MQ turn ins.

Willing to listen to reasonable arguments.

I did spend quite a bit of time making sure all those quests, individually perl written, were mqable, because that's fucking classic.

The argument you're trying to make, I think, is for the lower level players not being able to get them with platinum.

So, the same as anything else, I want to certainly try the classic method before modifying anything. As an example you mentioned, variance.

MQs are what allow those who can't be in the top guild to still get a shot at top items and motivation to keep playing. Nothing wrong with that.
