EQ:Epics  

In Everquest, an "Epic" is a specific weapon exclusive to your class. Epic weapons are unique in stats and apparence. Epic weapon quests generally take no less than several days to complete, though there are a few exceptions. Most have a special ability that can be activated. There is an achievement linked to each of your class's three epic weapons (in addition to an "Epic 2.5" achievement that is gained when you finish a specific quest to augment your epic 2.0 stats). There are three epics per class, a 1.0 (from the Ruins of Kunark expansion pack), a 1.5 (from the Omens of War expansion pack), and a 2.0 (also from Omens of War). The 1.5 is similar in appearance to the 2.0 but has weaker stats and is level 65 required instead of the 2.0's required 70. Completion of the 1.0 or a bypass quest similar, but shorter, to the 1.0 is required to begin the Epic 1.5 quest. Completion of the Epic 1.5 is required to begin the 2.0. The 1.5 is consumed upon completing the 2.0. When you complete your classes's epic quest, you also gain a class unique title as well as 5 AA's for 1.5 and 10 AA's for 2.0.
