Shaman epic advice please

[daasgoot]

How would you guys recommend doing the shaman epic?

I have heard people doing it different ways. Doing a certain turn in over and over or going through he entire progression.

right now the quest is really pissing me off with faction issues, seems to be broke as fuck.

looks like i'm gonna need to re-do the first step over and over just to get opaque jem and start test of patience.

I have already obtaines envy/woe/marr, and all 6 pages from COM

Faction not broken, just takes forever when you're not potsbound. Still took me half a week via pots doing the faction quest to get it maxed (pegleg in bb)

The fastest way possible would be you, a Druid porter and binding in nfp.

so the quest was built purposely to have to charm quest npc's and re-do the same steps multiple times?

There is no need to charm anything for faction gains.

Kill pegleg in bb, macro the sentences you need to talk with the wolf and gate back to nfp to hand in the gem.

I think I did the hand in at least 100 times

hmm, i had to have someone charm the spirit sentinel in order for it to even talk to me and give me the gem.

There was no need for me to charm it.

The gimped starting faction for the quest was added in last patch. Not sure of they're taking it out but currently you need a charming class to charm the sentinel on order to get it started. Maybe charm animal works though due to it being a level 25 dog?

For me on blue it took like 70+ Bondl turn ins + quest line all the way up to black boots in order to max it. Unfortunately I out levelled most of com by the time I got it so it wasn't worth of, however, sub-10 page turn ins + Ghiosk might just be enough if you've done the quest line up to the boots. Com on red will be kind of a pain in the ass unless you're high 30s-low 40s. Anything above that gets raped from above. Beware.

There's also a faster way of corpsing the gems you receive from the wolf in NFP and rezzing into Eruds crossing but I think the spirit despawns after the quest speech (he used to hang around for 10 minutes or so before so you could get a ton of quest gems during that time).

Ymmv. Consult the class section of the forums - lots of good options there.
