Epic quests approach - loot & inventory space

[nemserultnem]

What is your approach to Epic quests? Trying to marathon them or at least do them in 2 runs or retreat all the time when your inventory is full of relevant valuables (ie. heirlooms & CC trinkets) and thus do it in 4-5 runs?

Even in a long dungeon inventory space can become a bottleneck quickly and this is especially an issue on epic levels - I kinda feel bad to discard heirlooms all the time and would like to know your point of views / best practices.

I tend to overprepare for these because I tend to have awful times with them, so these are my supplies:

20-24 food

4-6 Bandages

3-5 Herbs

8 Torches

4 Shovels


I tend to do them over the course of several runs. I try to make it as far as I can in one run of it but if something goes wrong I'm retreating.

12 food and two of each of everything else, except antivenom. You don't need that. The other guy takes way too much stuff, since the inventory will fill up before he can use a quarter of it. Just get more invites and go as many times as you need. The normal dungeons will be full of eggs anyway, so this is not hard to do.

I tend to spend two hours or so on each courtyard run I do unless something goes really wrong, so it really isn't as much overkill as you'd think.

Also want to note that keys are absolutely useless in the Courtyard, and though it isn't exactly the best thing to bring, Antivenom is still useful because there are a handful courtyard enemies that inflict decently high blights.
