Imperium has TWO (2) custom epic levels that split the live EQ epic levels/quests between 1.0 and 1.5.
For those that have trouble with reading the above, or my colour scheme, the table below is roughly the same.
Everquest Epics: | Imperium Epics: |
Epic 1.0 | Epic 1.0 |
N/A | Epic 1.5 |
N/A | Epic 2.0 |
Epic 1.5 | Epic 2.5 |
Epic 2.0 | Epic 3.0 |
The normal EQ epic quests are done MOSTLY in the same manner as live. The Imperium-only epic levels are unique to Imperium, and are done the same way for every class. (The rogue 1.5 and 2.0 epic quests are the same as the warrior and bard and all the others)
Epic 1.0s can be traded in this game. You may be able to find yours on a trader in the bazaar.
As of the current (mid-2022) equipment era, very few classes will use even their epic 3.0 as anything beyond an in-bag clicky, so don't start this expecting any of the epics to be nice big stat/dmg upgrades for you to wear. They ARE progression, and they ARE (mostly) useful, but for most classes, can be set on the back-burner indefinitely.
Notable exception: Shadowknight epic 2.0 should be acquired early, as the clicky is essential for the class.
"BUT GORG," I hear you say, "How do I go about getting my epic?"
I'm glad you asked!
For your IMPERIUM 1.0 click on your class forum here. Feel free to look up regular Everquest 1.0 walkthroughs - they MIGHT not reflect exactly how things work here.
For your IMPERIUM 2.5 and 3.0, once again click on your class forum here. Feel free to look up regular Everquest 1.0 walkthroughs - they MIGHT not reflect exactly how things work here.
*note* I recommend finding multiple guides for your 1.0, 2.5, and 3.0 and reading each step on each of them before proceeding. Some class-specific guides left out some details, or may have been written before some changes were made. One of my favourites is eqprogression.com, as it has a list of pre-lootable items for your quests! (google your desired regular-eq epic + "eqprogression") Example
