Global drops - cleric epic

Any way we could get a hint as to whether or not some of these global drops will be shared by other class epic quests? Namely all those different bit types (tin, gold, etc).

I've been /oocing and handing out those global drops to those who need it as fast as I get them, but I've always wondered if I should save some for myself in case they were used in other epic quests.

Every class will have their own unique global drops. Additionally, as more global drops are added, they will naturally become rarer and rarer to find the exact ones you need. The intent is to help stimulate the economy/player interactions more since there will be roughly 150-200 different possible drops.

Gotcha.

After all class epics are implemented, what do you see as the impact on people looting mobs in general?

Is there a possibility that each corpse could potentially be littered with quest items, especially in those zones that already have a lot of unique drops (Icewell comes to mind)?

I think he means all the globals will be in the same table. So you only get one roll for the global, and at, say, 5% chance, with 200 items in that same table, once all epics are in, it's going to be pretty rare to get the global you want. Thus, having to rely on other people's "luck" by buying/trading for the one you need.

So, essentially, if you're class' epic is released earlier than the others, make sure you get those globals before the rest go in because it's going to get harder and harder :P

Makes sense.

This will make the bazaar a lot more useful!

The bazaar is already pretty darn useful to anyone who isn't end-game. But this *definitely* makes it more useful, once all the globals are in ;)
